Description:

The optional SSH administration service grants full access to the 
administration shell to every user that authenticates against its configured 
login domain, without checking for an administrative role. An attacker holding 
the credentials of any user in that domain, including a low-privileged 
application user, can execute arbitrary code as the server process. Users are 
recommended to disable the SSH administration service, or to block network 
access to it from untrusted clients and restrict its login domain to 
administrative users.
