CVE-2026-48110 PUBLISHED

Russh: SSH message fields were decoded through allocation-first parsers before field-specific bounds

Assigner: GitHub_M
Reserved: 20.05.2026 Published: 10.06.2026 Updated: 10.06.2026

Russh is a Rust SSH client & server library. From version 0.34.0 to before version 0.61.0, several russh client and server message handlers decoded attacker-controlled SSH strings, name-lists, and byte fields into owned allocations before applying field-specific bounds. A remote SSH peer could send oversized, high-fanout, or malformed length-prefixed fields and make the library allocate, attempt to allocate, or split data before rejecting input that should have been rejected earlier. This issue has been patched in version 0.61.0.
