A flaw was found in libssh automatic certificate-based public key authentication. In sshuserauthpublickeyauto() in src/auth.c, the iterator over certificate candidates was not advanced correctly when configured certificates were missing or repeatedly rejected by the server. Under specific non-default certificate configurations, this could cause the client to restart the same authentication attempts indefinitely, leading to denial of service.

A flaw was found in libssh server-side SFTP directory listing. In processreaddir() in src/sftpserver.c, the server allocates a fixed stack buffer as char longname[MAXLONGNAMELEN] and passes attacker-controlled directory entry names into readdirlongname(). In the pre-patch implementation, readdirlongname() appends metadata and the filename into zlongname with repeated unbounded strcat() calls. Because zlongname points at the caller-owned fixed stack buffer, sufficiently long filenames in an attacker-controlled directory can overflow that stack buffer during SSHFXPREADDIR processing, leading to crashes and possible code execution on the server.

A flaw was found in gnutls. A remote attacker could exploit an issue in the Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) packet reordering logic. The comparator function, responsible for ordering DTLS packets by sequence numbers, did not correctly handle packets with duplicate sequence numbers. This could lead to unstable packet ordering or undefined behavior, resulting in a denial of service.
