Fabrice, All,

On 2020-02-29 12:31 +0100, Fabrice Fontaine spake thusly:
> In libssh2 v1.9.0 and earlier versions, the SSH_MSG_DISCONNECT logic in
> packet.c has an integer overflow in a bounds check, enabling an attacker
> to specify an arbitrary (out-of-bounds) offset for a subsequent memory
> read. A crafted SSH server may be able to disclose sensitive information
> or cause a denial of service condition on the client system when a user
> connects to the server.

Applied to master, thanks.
