"According to the versions of the libssh package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by
the following vulnerabilities :

    There's a vulnerability in the libssh package where when a libssh consumer passes in an unexpectedly large
    input buffer to ssh_get_fingerprint_hash() function. In such cases the bin_to_base64() function can
    experience an integer overflow leading to a memory under allocation, when that happens it's possible that
    the program perform out of bounds write leading to a heap corruption.
    This issue affects only 32-bits builds of libssh.(CVE-2025-4877)

    A vulnerability was found in libssh, where an uninitialized variable exists under certain conditions in
    the privatekey_from_file() function. This flaw can be triggered if the file specified by the filename
    doesn't exist and may lead to possible signing failures or heap corruption.(CVE-2025-4878)

    A flaw was found in libssh, a library that implements the SSH protocol. When calculating the session ID
    during the key exchange (KEX) process, an allocation failure in cryptographic functions may lead to a NULL
    pointer dereference. This issue can cause the client or server to crash.(CVE-2025-8114)

    A flaw was found in libssh's handling of key exchange (KEX) processes when a client repeatedly sends
    incorrect KEX guesses. The library fails to free memory during these rekey operations, which can gradually
    exhaust system memory. This issue can lead to crashes on the client side, particularly when using
    libgcrypt, which impacts application stability and availability.(CVE-2025-8277)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS libssh security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
