Description
Mariusz Ziulek discovered that libssh incorrectly handled certain packets.
A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause libssh to crash,
resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2015-3146)
Aris Adamantiadis discovered that libssh incorrectly generated ephemeral
secret keys of 128 bits instead of the recommended 1024 or 2048 bits when
using the diffie-hellman-group1 and diffie-hellman-group14 methods. If a
remote attacker were able to perform a machine-in-the-middle attack, this flaw
could be exploited to view sensitive information. (CVE-2016-0739)
