nse_libssh2.cc in Nmap 7.70 is subject to a denial of service condition due to a double free when an SSH connection fails, as demonstrated by a leading n character to ssh-brute.nse or ssh-auth-methods.nse.
The product calls free() twice on the same memory address, potentially leading to modification of unexpected memory locations.
