LOW 3.3

DescriptionCVE.org

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.

AnalysisAI

libssh attempts to open arbitrary files during configuration parsing, allowing local attackers with limited privileges to trigger a denial of service by forcing access to dangerous files such as block devices or large system files. 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. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Risk Assessment The CVSS score of 3.3 with vector CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L indicates low overall severity. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A local user on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux system with unprivileged account access crafts a malicious SSH configuration file that references dangerous paths such as block devices (/dev/sda) or large files (/dev/zero). When libssh parses this configuration during SSH service initialization or user SSH operations, it attempts to open these resources, causing the SSH process to hang or consume excessive I/O resources, resulting in denial of service to legitimate SSH connections. …
Remediation Apply the latest security updates provided by Red Hat for affected systems; consult the vendor advisory at https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-0965 for specific patched package versions corresponding to each RHEL release and OpenShift version. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
