If an attacker manages to exhaust the heap space, this error is not detected and may lead to libssh using a partially initialized cipher context. This occurs because the OpenSSL error code returned aliases with the SSH_OK code, resulting in libssh not properly detecting the error returned by the OpenSSL library. This issue can lead to undefined behavior, including compromised data confidentiality and integrity or crashes.","severity":{"version":"3.1","score":8.1,"vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","level":"high","assessor":"cna","from":"cve"},"epss":{"day":"2026-11-09","score":0.0173,"percentile":0.77754,"model":"v2026.06.15"},"facts":{"in_kev":false,"known_exploited":false,"public_exploit":false,"fix_available":true},"cwes":["CWE-393"],"published":"2025-06-25T00:00:00Z","modified":"2026-11-05T21:15:52Z","fixes":[{"ecosystem":"Alpine:v3.22","package":"libssh","fixed_in":["0.11.2-r0"],"sources":["osv"]},{"ecosystem":"Alpine:v3.23","package":"libssh","fixed_in":["0.11.2-r0"],"sources":["osv"]},{"ecosystem":"Alpine:v3.24","package":"libssh","fixed_in":["0.11.2-r0"],"sources":["osv"]},{"ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:9","package":"libssh","fixed_in":["0.10.4-17.el9_7"],"sources":["osv"]},{"ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:9","package":"libssh-config","fixed_in":["0.10.4-17.el9_7"],"sources":["osv"]},{"ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:9","package":"libssh-devel","fixed_in":["0.10.4-17.el9_7"],"sources":["osv"]},{"ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:10","package":"libssh-config","fixed_in":["0.11.1-5.el10_1"],"sources":["osv"]},{"ecosystem":"Azure
