Affected: AlmaLinux:10: libssh, AlmaLinux:10: libssh-config, AlmaLinux:10: libssh-devel

libssh is a library which implements the SSH protocol. It can be used to implement client and server applications.

Security Fix(es):

* libssh: Buffer underflow in ssh_get_hexa() on invalid input (CVE-2026-0966) * libssh: Improper sanitation of paths received from SCP servers (CVE-2026-0964) * libssh: libssh: Denial of Service via improper configuration file handling (CVE-2026-0965) * libssh: libssh: Denial of Service via inefficient regular expression processing (CVE-2026-0967) * libssh: libssh: Denial of Service due to malformed SFTP message (CVE-2026-0968)

Affected: Alpaquita:23: libssh, Alpaquita:25: libssh, Alpaquita:stream: libssh

A flaw was found in libssh. A remote attacker, by controlling client configuration files or known_hosts files, could craft specific hostnames that when processed by the `match_pattern()` function can lead to inefficient regular expression backtracking. This can cause timeouts and resource exhaustion, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) for the client.

Affected: openEuler:24.03-LTS: libssh

The ssh library was designed to be used by programmers needing a working SSH implementation by the mean of a library. The complete control of the client is made by the programmer. With libssh, you can remotely execute programs, transfer files, use a secure and transparent tunnel for your remote programs. With its Secure FTP implementation, you can play with remote files easily, without third-party programs others than libcrypto (from openssl). Security Fix(es):
