A malicious attacker could man in the middle a real server and cause a client using the libssh2 library to crash (denial of service) or otherwise read and use unintended memory areas in this process. For the stable distribution (wheezy), this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.2-1.1+deb7u1. We recommend that you upgrade your libssh2 packages.
