NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream virt:8.0.0/libssh2-docs package and not the virt:8.0.0/libssh2-docs package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

An out of bounds read flaw was discovered in libssh2 before 1.8.1 when a specially crafted SFTP packet is received from the server. A remote attacker who compromises a SSH server may be able to cause a Denial of Service or read data in the client memory.
