CVE-2026-56855

HIGH CVSS: 7.5 Published: 2026-09-02 Modified: 2026-09-04

Description

Previously, after a channel has been established, a malicious peer could send crafted messages that would deadlock the entire connection. Now, we handle all RFC 4254 channel messages; global requests are handled explicitly. Then, treat all other messages as a protocol error and tear the connection down instead of buffering and blocking.

Affected Platforms
