Mageia 9 MGASA-2024-0002 moderate: libssh2 integrity downgrade issue

The SSH transport protocol with certain OpenSSH extensions, found in OpenSSH before 9.6 and other products, allows remote attackers to bypass integrity checks such that some packets are omitted (from the extension negotiation message), and a client and server may consequently end up with a connection for which some security features have been downgraded . MGASA-2024-0002 - Updated libssh2 packages fix a security vulnerability (Terrapin Attack) Publication date: 08 Jan 2024 URL: https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2024-0002.html Type: security Affected Mageia releases: 9 CVE: CVE-2023-48795 The SSH transport protocol with certain OpenSSH extensions, found in OpenSSH before 9.6 and other products, allows remote attackers to bypass integrity checks such that some packets are omitted (from the extension negotiation message), and a client and server may consequently end up with a connection for which some security features have been downgraded or disabled, aka a Terrapin attack. This occurs because the SSH Binary Packet Protocol (BPP), implemented by these extensions, mishandles the handshake phase and mishandles use of sequence numbers. Our libssh2 packages were also affected, this update fixes the issue.
