CVE-2026-15370: Libssh

High severity, CVSS 7.3. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

A flaw was found in libssh. During SFTP server directory listing, the longname field is constructed with unsafe concatenation into a fixed-size stack buffer. When a client causes the server to list attacker-controlled filenames, sufficiently long names can overflow that stack buffer and may lead to crashes or possible code execution on the server.
