Test ID:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2016.0392
Category:	Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:	Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2016-0392)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'libssh2' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2016-0392 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'libssh2' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2016-0392 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Andreas Schneider reported that libssh2 passes the number of bytes to a function that expects number of bits during the SSHv2 handshake when libssh2 is to get a suitable value for 'group order' in the Diffie-Hellman negotiation. This weakens significantly the handshake security, potentially allowing an eavesdropper with enough resources to decrypt or intercept SSH sessions (CVE-2016-0787). Affected Software/OS: 'libssh2' package(s) on Mageia 5. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 4.3 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
