These patches address CVE-2016-0739 (libssh) and CVE-2016-0786 (libssh2)
[0].
For libssh, we update to the latest upstream release, 0.7.3.
Guile-ssh depends on a private package of an older version of libssh [1], so
we update that private package to the latest version supported by
guile-ssh, 0.6.5. This happens to be the previous version of our public
libssh package.
This allows us to remove the patch for CVE-2014-0017, which was fixed in
libssh-0.6.3 [2].
For libssh2, we update to the latest upstream release, 1.7.0.
Many packages depend on libssh2, including curl, so we create a
temporary package of the old, vulnerable version, 1.4. When we have
rebuilt all packages affected by CVE-2016-0786, this temporary package
should be removed and curl should be made to depend on the latest
version. That future commit should state "Fixes CVE-2016-7087".
Please double check that curl does not need to be rebuilt before
applying these patches. Feel free to reorganize them changes or alter
the commit messages as desired.
