Integer Overflow in libssh2 publickey subsystem attribute allocation
CVE-2026-58050 is a memory corruption vulnerability in libssh2 through 1.11.1 affecting the client-side handling of publickey-subsystem responses. libssh2 reads an attacker-controlled 32-bit attribute count from a server response and uses that value in the allocation expression num_attrs * sizeof(libssh2_publickey_attribute) without adequate bounds checking. On 32-bit platforms, this multiplication can overflow, resulting in an undersized heap allocation. A malicious SSH server can then cause the subsequent attribute-parsing loop to write beyond the allocated buffer, producing a heap buffer overflow in the connecting libssh2 client.
