    Medium [CVE-2026-66033] Denial of Service via integer underflow in AES-GCM cipher negotiation

    CVE-2026-66033Source published Source updated

    libssh2 through 1.11.1, fixed in commit a2ed82d, contains a pre-authentication integer underflow vulnerability in the ssh2_cipher_crypt() function in src/openssl.c that allows a malicious SSH server to crash any connecting client by negotiating AES-GCM ciphers during handshake. Attackers can exploit the underflow in the expression computing blocksize minus aadlen minus authentication tag length to trigger an out-of-bounds read and a memcpy call with a near-SIZE_MAX length argument, causing immediate process crash before any authentication occurs. A flaw was found in libssh2. A malicious SSH server can exploit this to trigger an out-of-bounds read and a memory copy operation with an extremely large length argument, leading to an immediate client process crash. This vulnerability results…
