Lifecycle Timeline
5DescriptionCVE.org
A single crafted SSH message gives an unauthenticated network attacker an out-of-bounds stack write of attacker-controlled length and content against any application built on swift-nio-ssh. This vulnerability is addressed in swift-nio-ssh version 0.14.1.
AnalysisAI
Remote unauthenticated code execution is possible in swift-nio-ssh, Apple's Swift implementation of the SSH2 protocol built on SwiftNIO, where a single crafted SSH message triggers an out-of-bounds stack write of attacker-controlled length and content. Any server or client application built on swift-nio-ssh before 0.14.1 is affected, and an attacker can corrupt stack memory pre-authentication to potentially achieve arbitrary code execution. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The only prerequisite is network reachability to a service that embeds a swift-nio-ssh version earlier than 0.14.1 and accepts incoming SSH connections; the crafted message is processed on the pre-authentication parsing path, so no credentials, user interaction, or non-default configuration are required (CVSS PR:N/UI:N/AC:L). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The signals partially diverge and should be read together. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Vendor-released patch: upgrade swift-nio-ssh to version 0.14.1, which addresses the vulnerability; update the dependency pin (for example in Package.swift / Package.resolved) and rebuild and redeploy every application that embeds the library, since the fix does not take effect until dependents are recompiled against 0.14.1. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
