* New upstream release (closes: #453367).
- CVE-2007-4752: Prevent ssh(1) from using a trusted X11 cookie if creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec (closes: #444738). - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing installations are unchanged. - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1) sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks. - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for arcfour256/hmac-md5. - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately 20% faster than HMAC-MD5. - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set. - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away without passing the full exit status. - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work. - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774). - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause copies to be aborted with a "protocol error". - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated. - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple mechanisms. - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option. - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked into the client. - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings have been established. - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files. - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients. - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space, whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541). - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed (closes: #405041). - Manual page datestamps updated (closes: #433181).
