value:
"During the SSHv2 handshake when libssh2 is to get a suitable value for
'group order' in the Diffle Hellman negotiation, it would pass in
number of bytes to a function that expected number of bits. This would
result in the library generating numbers using only an 8th the number
of random bits than what were intended: 128 or 256 bits instead of
1023 or 2047 Using such drastically reduced amount of random bits for
Diffie Hellman weakened the handshake security significantly. The
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project has assigned the
name CVE-2016-0787 to this issue.
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."
