>The flaw allows unauthenticated remote code execution under specific conditions

Are the conditions highly specific or are they the default configuration for most OpenSSH installations?

Literally any other information on this? Right now this feels like AI-hallucination. Unpublished CVE (as of the time of this post), nothing actually useful to act on.
I don’t think this a valid disclosure here. Without any information
