CVE-2019-13115: kex_method_diffie_hellman_group_exchange_sha256_key_exchange in kex.c has an integer overflow that could lead to an out-of-bounds read in the way packets are read from the server. A remote attacker who compromises a SSH server may be able to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service condition on the client system when a user connects to the server.

CVE-2019-17498: SSH_MSG_DISCONNECT logic in packet.c has an integer overflow in a bounds check, enabling an attacker to specify an arbitrary (out-of-bounds) offset for a subsequent memory read. A crafted SSH server may be able to disclose sensitive information or cause a denial of service condition on the client system when a user connects to the server.

For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 1.7.0-1+deb9u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your libssh2 packages.

For the detailed security status of libssh2 please refer to its security tracker page at: [link moved to references]
