Description

Could you provide us the patch for CVE-2015-1782.

A vulnerability has been reported in libssh2, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or expose sensitive information or manipulate data.

The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the "kex_agree_methods()" function (src/kex.c) when handling strings, which can be exploited to cause an out-of-bounds read memory access and a crash via a specially crafted SSH_MSG_KEXINIT packet.
