CVE-2012-4562

Publication date 20 November 2012

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

Multiple integer overflows in libssh before 0.5.3 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop or crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, which triggers a buffer overflow, infinite loop, or possibly some other unspecified vulnerabilities.
