Description:

Jason Wies identified both rssh & scponly have a vulnerability that allows arbitrary command execution. He reports:

The problem is compounded when you recognize that the main use of rssh and scponly is to allow file transfers, which in turn allows a malicious user to transfer and execute entire custom scripts on the remote machine.
