| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in the libssh2 library. A remote attacker can exploit an integer overflow vulnerability in the `userauth_password` function by manipulating the `username_len` or `password_len` arguments and cause a heap-based buffer overflow. This leads to a crash to the application linked to the library and potentially allows arbitrary code execution.
