Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2015-148 - Mariusz Ziulek reported that libssh2, a SSH2 client-side library, was reading and using the SSH_MSG_KEXINIT packet without doing sufficient range checks when negotiating a new SSH session with a remote server. A malicious attacker could man in the middle a real server and cause a client using the libssh2 library to crash or otherwise read and use unintended memory areas in this process. Packages were missing for Mandriva Business Server 1 with the MDVSA-2015:148 advisory which are now being provided.
