CVE-2026-48110 - Russh: SSH message fields were decoded through allocation-first parsers before field-specific bounds

CVE ID :CVE-2026-48110
Published : June 10, 2026, 8:26 p.m. | 1 hour, 2 minutes ago
Description :Russh is a Rust SSH client & server library. From version 0.34.0 to before version 0.61.0, several russh client and server message handlers decoded attacker-controlled SSH strings, name-lists, and byte fields into owned allocations before applying field-specific bounds. A remote SSH peer could send oversized, high-fanout, or malformed length-prefixed fields and make the library allocate, attempt to allocate, or split data before rejecting input that should have been rejected earlier. This issue has been patched in version 0.61.0.
Severity: 0.0 | NA
