"This update, to the current upstream release version, contains
numerous bug fixes and enhancements as described in the RELEASE-NOTES
file.

These include a security fix for CVE-2015-1782 :

A malicious attacker could man in the middle a real server and cause
libssh2-using clients to crash (denial of service) or otherwise read
and use completely unintended memory areas in this process. There are
no known exploits of this flaw at this time.

See http://www.libssh2.org/adv_20150311.html for further details.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding
description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable
has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible
without introducing additional issues."
