CVE-2001-1382 describes an information disclosure vulnerability in OpenSSH versions prior to 2.9.9p2. The "echo simulation" traffic analysis countermeasure, designed to obscure traffic patterns, inadvertently reveals its presence by sending an extra echo packet after password entry. This medium-severity vulnerability (CVSS 5.0) has a low attack complexity and allows remote attackers to determine if the countermeasure is in use, but does not directly lead to compromise of confidentiality, integrity, or availability. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion surrounding this CVE.
