Threats Tagged 'cve-2025-8277'

A flaw was found in libssh's handling of key exchange (KEX) processes when a client repeatedly sends incorrect KEX guesses. The library fails to free memory during these rekey operations, which can gradually exhaust system memory. This issue can lead to crashes on the client side, particularly when using libgcrypt, which impacts application stability and availability.

Ronald Crane discovered that libssh incorrectly handled certain base64 conversions. An attacker could use this issue to cause libssh to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2025-4877) Ronald Crane discovered that libssh incorrectly handled the privatekey_from_file() function. An attacker could use this issue to cause libssh to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2025-4878) Ronald Crane discovered that libssh incorrectly handled certain memory operations in the sftp server. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause libssh to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2025-5318, CVE-2025-5449) Ronald Crane discovered that libssh incorrectly handled exporting keys.
