Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-5372 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Redhat Enterprise Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-5372/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-5372/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-5372","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-5372/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-5372","record":{"aliases":["ALSA-2025:21977","AZL-64650","AZL-64656","BELL-CVE-2025-5372","CLSA-2025-1759330475","CLSA-2025-1759782399","CLSA-2025-1759857168","CLSA-2025-1759951300","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-5372","GHSA-59w5-j22f-h3rv","JLSEC-2025-97","MINI-wx9w-xv2w-99pj","RHSA-2025:21977","RHSA-2025:23024","RHSA-2026:20610","RHSA-2026:24349","RHSA-2026:25911","RLSA-2025:21977","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-5372"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SSH library","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can compromise SSH session confidentiality and integrity due to incorrect return code handling in libssh when using older OpenSSL versions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"weak_cryptography"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"libssh","vendor":"libssh"},{"product":"enterprise_linux","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"openshift_container_platform","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-682","name":"Incorrect Calculation"}],"description":"A flaw was found in libssh versions built with OpenSSL versions older than 3.0, specifically in the ssh_kdf() function responsible for key derivation.
