Is CVE-2026-66035 exploited?

No exploitation is reported in the sources VulniPulse tracks: CVE-2026-66035 is not in the CISA KEV catalog (checked ) and no tracked advisory for it reports exploitation. That is not proof the vulnerability cannot be exploited.

How do I fix CVE-2026-66035?

Upgrade to a fixed release named by the vendor:

  • Red Hat: 1.11.1, libssh2-main-1.11.1-10.3.hum1, RHSA-2026:46955
  • To reduce exposure, restrict SSH client connections to only trusted and verified SSH servers. Avoid initiating SSH connections to unknown or unverified hosts, as successful exploitation requires the client to connect to a malicious server. (Red Hat)

    Medium [CVE-2026-66035] Arbitrary code execution via heap buffer overflow during SSH negotiation

    CVE-2026-66035Source published Source updated

    libssh2 through 1.11.1, fixed in commit 42e33d8, contains a pre-authentication heap buffer overflow vulnerability that allows a malicious SSH server to corrupt heap metadata in any connecting client by sending a packet with a packet_length smaller than the cipher's block size during Encrypt-then-MAC cipher negotiation. In the fullpacket() function in src/transport.c, the ETM path allocates a buffer of packet_length bytes but copies blocksize minus one bytes via memcpy, causing an overflow that on 32-bit glibc writes attacker-controlled bytes into an adjacent chunk's SIZE field, enabling tcache bin confusion, overlapping live objects, and function pointer overwrite during the session handshake before authentication. A flaw was found in libssh2. This allows the server to corrupt heap…
