package/libssh2: add upstream patch for CVE-2026-55199
Fixes the following vulnerability:
- CVE-2026-55199:
libssh2 through 1.11.1, fixed in commit 1762685, contains a pre-
authentication denial of service vulnerability in the SSH_MSG_EXT_INFO
handler in src/packet.c that allows a malicious SSH server to cause a
client CPU exhaustion loop by sending a crafted extension count value.
A malicious server can set nr_extensions to 0xFFFFFFFF during key
exchange, causing the client to spin in a tight CPU loop for over 60
seconds because return values from _libssh2_get_string() are unchecked
and the session timeout does not apply to CPU-bound loops.

Subject: [PATCH] packet: check `_libssh2_get_string()` return in `EXT_INFO`
|
||||
handler
|
||||
|
||||
The `SSH_MSG_EXT_INFO` handler discards the return values from
|
||||
`_libssh2_get_string()` when parsing extension name/value pairs. When
|
||||
the buffer is exhausted before all claimed extensions are parsed,
|
||||
the loop continues with no-op iterations until `nr_extensions` reaches
|
||||
zero.
|
||||
|
||||
The `nr_extensions >= 1024` cap limits the worst case, but the loop
|
||||
should still break on parse failure for correctness and consistency
|
||||
with other parsers in this file (e.g. `SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN`,
|
||||
`SSH_MSG_KEXINIT`) that check `_libssh2_get_string()` return values.
|
||||
|
||||
