{"id":"USN-8051-1","summary":"libssh vulnerabilities","details":"It was discovered that libssh clients incorrectly handled the key exchange\nprocess. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause libssh\nclients to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2025-8277)\n\nIt was discovered that the libssh SCP client incorrectly sanitized paths\nreceived from servers. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause\nlibssh SCP clients to overwrite files outside of the working directory and\npossibly execute arbitrary code.
