libssh security advisories:

The SSH protocol keeps track of two shared secrets during the lifetime
of the session. One of them is called secret_hash and and the other
session_id. Initially, both of them are the same, but after key
re-exchange, previous session_id is kept and used as an input to new
secret_hash.
Historically, both of these buffers had shared length variable, which
worked as long as these buffers were same. But the key re-exchange
operation can also change the key exchange method, which can be based on
hash of different size, eventually creating secret_hash of different
size than the session_id has.
This becomes an issue when the session_id memory is zeroized or when
it is used again during second key re-exchange.
