Description

A flaw was found in libssh where it can attempt to open arbitrary files during configuration parsing. A local attacker can exploit this by providing a malicious configuration file or when the system is misconfigured. This vulnerability could lead to a Denial of Service (DoS) by causing the system to try and access dangerous files, such as block devices or large system files, which can disrupt normal operations.

Analysis

The vulnerability affects Red Hat Enterprise Linux versions 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, as well as Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4, and requires local access with low privileges to exploit. …
