NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream redhat-virtualization-host.src package and not the redhat-virtualization-host.src package as distributed by RHEL.

An integer overflow flaw which could lead to an out of bounds write was discovered in libssh2 before 1.8.1 in the way SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST packets with an exit signal 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.
