CVE-2025-5449 unimportant priority: Debian including 1 source packages (libssh), 5 status rows across 5 suites (bookworm, bullseye, forky, sid, trixie): resolved 5.

Description:

A flaw was found in the SFTP server message decoding logic of libssh.

This issue leads to failed memory allocation and causes the server process to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
