A security vulnerability has been detected in libssh2 up to 1.11.1. The impacted element is the function userauth_password of the file src/userauth.c. Such manipulation of the argument username_len/password_len leads to integer overflow. The attack may be launched remotely. The name of the patch is 256d04b60d80bf1190e96b0ad1e91b2174d744b1. A patch should be applied to remediate this issue.
AnalysisAI
Integer overflow in libssh2 up to version 1.11.1 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to cause memory corruption during SSH password authentication. The vulnerability exists in the userauth_password function where inadequate bounds checking on username_len and password_len parameters can trigger integer overflow when calculating buffer sizes, potentially leading to confidentiality breach, integrity compromise, and service disruption. …
