NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libssh2-docs package and not the libssh2-docs package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

An integer overflow flaw, which could lead to an out of bounds write, was discovered in libssh2 before 1.8.1 in the way keyboard prompt requests are parsed. A remote attacker who compromises a SSH server may be able to execute code on the client system when a user connects to the server.
