+	    ssh-agent(1): fixed a double-free memory corruption that was
+	    introduced in OpenSSH 8.2 . We treat all such memory faults as
+	    potentially exploitable. This bug could be reached by an attacker
+	    with access to the agent socket.
+	  </p>
+	  <p>
+	    On modern operating systems where the OS can provide information
+	    about the user identity connected to a socket, OpenSSH ssh-agent
+	    and sshd limit agent socket access only to the originating user
+	    and root. Additional mitigation may be afforded by the system's
+	    malloc(3)/free(3) implementation, if it detects double-free
+	    conditions.
+	  </p>
+	  <p>
+	    The most likely scenario for exploitation is a user forwarding an
+	    agent either to an account shared with a malicious user or to a
+	    host with an attacker holding root access.
