Problems with automatic backup via SCP during kron job

Stumbled across a problem with certain versions of Cisco IOS ranging from 12.2 and 12.4 running an automatic backup every night by using SCP and kron. A month or so after the initial configuration the router started to have high cpu utilization problems and drop connections. After some research I found the Cisco bug id that went along with this problem, it is CSCsm27467. You can fix these problems by upgrading to or past the following IOS versions.

12.4(19.8)PI8a
12.2(44)SE2
