Echo: libssh2: security update to 1.11.1-1+e4

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 460215

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - libssh2 through 1.11.1 grows its publickey list with SSH2_REALLOC but does not zero-initialize new entries
 before parsing populates them, so a parse failure reaching the cleanup path leaves
 libssh2_publickey_list_free operating on an uninitialized entry. A malicious SSH server offering the
 publickey subsystem can use a malformed response to make cleanup free an uninitialized, attacker-
 influenceable attrs pointer in a connecting libssh2 client. (CVE-2026-58051)

Solution

Update the libssh2 library and its related packages to version 1.11.1-1+e4 or later.
