NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openshell package and not the openshell package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

Russh is a Rust SSH client and server library. Prior to 0.63.1, client_read_authenticated in russh/src/client/encrypted.rs forwards CHANNEL_DATA, CHANNEL_EXTENDED_DATA, CHANNEL_EOF, CHANNEL_CLOSE, CHANNEL_OPEN_FAILURE, CHANNEL_SUCCESS, CHANNEL_FAILURE, and CHANNEL_REQUEST subtypes exit-status, exit-signal, and xon-xoff to public client::Handler callbacks without confirming that the ChannelId belongs to a channel the client opened and established. A malicious SSH server can send lifecycle events for predicted, unopened, unconfirmed, or released channel identifiers, causing application panics or corrupting command completion and exit-code tracking. This issue is fixed in version 0.63.1.
