An updated libssh2 package that fixes one bug is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
The libssh2 package provides a library that implements the SSH2 protocol.

Bug Fix

BZ#743511
Prior to this update, libssh2 package leaked memory and terminated unexpectedly in certain situations. This update modifies libssh2 so that no more memory leaks occur and now libssh2 works as expected.
Note, that all running applications using libssh2 have to be restarted for the update to take an effect.
All users of libssh2 are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes this bug.
