An attacker can take advantage of this flaw to successfully authenticate without any credentials by presenting the server an SSH2_MSG_USERAUTH_SUCCESS message in place of the SSH2_MSG_USERAUTH_REQUEST message which the server would expect to initiate authentication.

For Debian 8 Jessie, this problem has been fixed in version 0.6.3-4+deb8u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your libssh packages.
