32 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-8.1):
33 - ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-agent(1): Add protection for private keys at rest
34 in RAM against speculation and memory side-channel attacks like
35 Spectre, Meltdown and Rambleed. This release encrypts private keys
36 when they are not in use with a symmetric key that is derived from a
37 relatively large "prekey" consisting of random data (currently 16KB).
38 - ssh(1): Allow %n to be expanded in ProxyCommand strings.
39 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow prepending a list of algorithms to the default
40 set by starting the list with the '^' character, e.g.
41 "HostKeyAlgorithms ^ssh-ed25519".
42 - ssh-keygen(1): Add an experimental lightweight signature and
43 verification ability. Signatures may be made using regular ssh keys
44 held on disk or stored in a ssh-agent and verified against an
45 authorized_keys-like list of allowed keys. Signatures embed a
46 namespace that prevents confusion and attacks between different usage
47 domains (e.g. files vs email).
48 - ssh-keygen(1): Print key comment when extracting public key from a
49 private key.
50 - ssh-keygen(1): Accept the verbose flag when searching for host keys in
51 known hosts (i.e. "ssh-keygen -vF host") to print the matching host's
52 random-art signature too.
53 - All: Support PKCS8 as an optional format for storage of private keys
54 to disk. The OpenSSH native key format remains the default, but PKCS8
55 is a superior format to PEM if interoperability with non-OpenSSH
56 software is required, as it may use a less insecure key derivation
57 function than PEM's.
58 - ssh(1): If a PKCS#11 token returns no keys then try to login and
59 refetch them.
60 - ssh(1): Produce a useful error message if the user's shell is set
61 incorrectly during "match exec" processing.
62 - sftp(1): Allow the maximum uint32 value for the argument passed to -b
63 which allows better error messages from later validation.
64 - ssh-keyscan(1): Include SHA2-variant RSA key algorithms in KEX
65 proposal; allows ssh-keyscan to harvest keys from servers that disable
66 old SHA1 ssh-rsa.
67 - sftp(1): Print explicit "not modified" message if a file was requested
68 for resumed download but was considered already complete.
69 - sftp(1): Fix a typo and make <esc><right> move right to the closest
70 end of a word just like <esc><left> moves left to the closest
71 beginning of a word.
72 - sshd(8): Cap the number of permitopen/permitlisten directives allowed
73 to appear on a single authorized_keys line.
74 - All: Fix a number of memory leaks (one-off or on exit paths).
75 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Check for convtime() refusing to accept times that
76 resolve to LONG_MAX.
77 - ssh(1): Slightly more instructive error message when the user
78 specifies multiple -J options on the command-line (closes: #929669).
79 - ssh-agent(1): Process agent requests for RSA certificate private keys
80 using correct signature algorithm when requested.
81 - sftp(1): Check for user@host when parsing sftp target. This allows
82 user@[1.2.3.4] to work without a path.
83 - sshd(8): Enlarge format buffer size for certificate serial number so
84 the log message can record any 64-bit integer without truncation.
85 - sshd(8): For PermitOpen violations add the remote host and port to be
86 able to more easily ascertain the source of the request. Add the same
87 logging for PermitListen violations which were not previously logged
88 at all.
89 - scp(1), sftp(1): Use the correct POSIX format style for left
90 justification for the transfer progress meter.
91 - sshd(8): When examining a configuration using sshd -T, assume any
92 attribute not provided by -C does not match, which allows it to work
93 when sshd_config contains a Match directive with or without -C.
94 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Downgrade PKCS#11 "provider returned no slots"
95 warning from log level error to debug. This is common when attempting
96 to enumerate keys on smartcard readers with no cards plugged in.
97 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Do not unconditionally log in to PKCS#11
98 tokens. Avoids spurious PIN prompts for keys not selected for
99 authentication in ssh(1) and when listing public keys available in a
100 token using ssh-keygen(1).
101 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix typo that prevented detection of Linux VRF.
102 - sshd(8): In the Linux seccomp-bpf sandbox, allow mprotect(2) with
103 PROT_(READ|WRITE|NONE) only. This syscall is used by some hardened
104 heap allocators.
105 - sshd(8): In the Linux seccomp-bpf sandbox, allow the s390-specific
106 ioctl for ECC hardware support.
107 * Re-enable hardening on hppa, since the corresponding GCC bug is
108 apparently fixed.

161
162 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-8.0, closes:
163 #927792):
164 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), ssh-add(1): Add support for ECDSA keys in
165 PKCS#11 tokens (LP: #1665695).
166 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add experimental quantum-computing resistant key
167 exchange method, based on a combination of Streamlined NTRU Prime
168 4591^761 and X25519.
169 - ssh-keygen(1): Increase the default RSA key size to 3072 bits,
170 following NIST Special Publication 800-57's guidance for a 128-bit
171 equivalent symmetric security level (LP: #1445625).
172 - ssh(1): Allow "PKCS11Provider=none" to override later instances of the
173 PKCS11Provider directive in ssh_config.
174 - sshd(8): Add a log message for situations where a connection is
175 dropped for attempting to run a command but a sshd_config
176 ForceCommand=internal-sftp restriction is in effect.
177 - ssh(1): When prompting whether to record a new host key, accept the
178 key fingerprint as a synonym for "yes". This allows the user to paste
179 a fingerprint obtained out of band at the prompt and have the client
180 do the comparison for you.
181 - ssh-keygen(1): When signing multiple certificates on a single
182 command-line invocation, allow automatically incrementing the
183 certificate serial number.
184 - scp(1), sftp(1): Accept -J option as an alias to ProxyJump on the scp
185 and sftp command-lines.
186 - ssh-agent(1), ssh-pkcs11-helper(8), ssh-add(1): Accept "-v"
187 command-line flags to increase the verbosity of output; pass verbose
188 flags though to subprocesses, such as ssh-pkcs11-helper started from
189 ssh-agent.
190 - ssh-add(1): Add a "-T" option to allowing testing whether keys in an
191 agent are usable by performing a signature and a verification.
192 - sftp-server(8): Add a "lsetstat@openssh.com" protocol extension that
193 replicates the functionality of the existing SSH2_FXP_SETSTAT
194 operation but does not follow symlinks.
195 - sftp(1): Add "-h" flag to chown/chgrp/chmod commands to request they
196 do not follow symlinks.
197 - sshd(8): Expose $SSH_CONNECTION in the PAM environment. This makes
198 the connection 4-tuple available to PAM modules that wish to use it in
199 decision-making.
200 - sshd(8): Add a ssh_config "Match final" predicate. Matches in same
201 pass as "Match canonical" but doesn't require hostname
202 canonicalisation be enabled.
203 - sftp(1): Support a prefix of '@' to suppress echo of sftp batch
204 commands.
205 - ssh-keygen(1): When printing certificate contents using "ssh-keygen
206 -Lf /path/certificate", include the algorithm that the CA used to sign
207 the cert.
208 - sshd(8): Fix authentication failures when sshd_config contains
209 "AuthenticationMethods any" inside a Match block that overrides a more
210 restrictive default.
211 - sshd(8): Avoid sending duplicate keepalives when ClientAliveCount is
212 enabled.
213 - sshd(8): Fix two race conditions related to SIGHUP daemon restart.
214 Remnant file descriptors in recently-forked child processes could
215 block the parent sshd's attempt to listen(2) to the configured
216 addresses. Also, the restarting parent sshd could exit before any
217 child processes that were awaiting their re-execution state had
218 completed reading it, leaving them in a fallback path.
219 - ssh(1): Fix stdout potentially being redirected to /dev/null when
220 ProxyCommand=- was in use.
221 - sshd(8): Avoid sending SIGPIPE to child processes if they attempt to
222 write to stderr after their parent processes have exited.
223 - ssh(1): Fix bad interaction between the ssh_config ConnectTimeout and
224 ConnectionAttempts directives - connection attempts after the first
225 were ignoring the requested timeout (LP: #1798049).
226 - ssh-keyscan(1): Return a non-zero exit status if no keys were found
227 (closes: #374980, LP: #1661745).
228 - scp(1): Sanitize scp filenames to allow UTF-8 characters without
229 terminal control sequences.
230 - sshd(8): Fix confusion between ClientAliveInterval and time-based
231 RekeyLimit that could cause connections to be incorrectly closed.
232 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Correct some bugs in PKCS#11 token PIN handling at
233 initial token login. The attempt to read the PIN could be skipped in
234 some cases, particularly on devices with integrated PIN readers. This
235 would lead to an inability to retrieve keys from these tokens.
236 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support keys on PKCS#11 tokens that set the
237 CKA_ALWAYS_AUTHENTICATE flag by requring a fresh login after the
238 C_SignInit operation.
239 - ssh(1): Improve documentation for ProxyJump/-J, clarifying that local
240 configuration does not apply to jump hosts.
241 - ssh-keygen(1): Clarify manual - ssh-keygen -e only writes public keys,
242 not private.
243 - ssh(1), sshd(8): be more strict in processing protocol banners,
244 allowing \r characters only immediately before \n.
245 - Various: fix a number of memory leaks.
246 - scp(1), sftp(1): fix calculation of initial bandwidth limits. Account
247 for bytes written before the timer starts and adjust the schedule on
248 which recalculations are performed. Avoids an initial burst of
249 traffic and yields more accurate bandwidth limits.
250 - sshd(8): Only consider the ext-info-c extension during the initial key
251 eschange. It shouldn't be sent in subsequent ones, but if it is
252 present we should ignore it. This prevents sshd from sending a
253 SSH_MSG_EXT_INFO for REKEX for these buggy clients.
254 - ssh-keygen(1): Clarify manual that ssh-keygen -F (find host in
255 authorized_keys) and -R (remove host from authorized_keys) options may
256 accept either a bare hostname or a [hostname]:port combo.
257 - ssh(1): Don't attempt to connect to empty SSH_AUTH_SOCK.
258 - sshd(8): Silence error messages when sshd fails to load some of the
259 default host keys. Failure to load an explicitly-configured hostkey
260 is still an error, and failure to load any host key is still fatal.
261 - ssh(1): Redirect stderr of ProxyCommands to /dev/null when ssh is
262 started with ControlPersist; prevents random ProxyCommand output from
263 interfering with session output.
264 - ssh(1): The ssh client was keeping a redundant ssh-agent socket
265 (leftover from authentication) around for the life of the connection.
266 - sshd(8): Fix bug in HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
267 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options. If only RSA-SHA2 signature types were
268 specified, then authentication would always fail for RSA keys as the
269 monitor checks only the base key (not the signature algorithm) type
270 against *AcceptedKeyTypes.
271 - ssh(1): Request correct signature types from ssh-agent when
272 certificate keys and RSA-SHA2 signatures are in use.
273 - sshd(8): Don't set $MAIL if UsePAM=yes as PAM typically specifies the
274 user environment if it's enabled (closes: #189920, #532754).
275 * Mostly resynced GSSAPI key exchange patch with Fedora. Major changes:
276 - Support selection of GSSAPI key exchange algorithms.
277 - Support GSSAPI key exchange methods with DH and SHA2.
278 - Support GSSAPI key exchange using ECDH and SHA2.
279 - Make sure the Kerberos tickets are cleaned up with the user context.
280 - Enable gssapi-keyex authentication without gssapi-with-mic.
281 - Allow querying for GSSAPI key exchange algorithms from ssh (-Q
282 kex-gss).
283 * Apply upstream patch to fix the utimensat regression tests when not
284 using the compatibility implementation.

387
388 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.9):
389 - ssh(1), sshd(8): allow most port numbers to be specified using service
390 names from getservbyname(3) (typically /etc/services; closes:
391 #177406).
392 - ssh(1): allow the IdentityAgent configuration directive to accept
393 environment variable names. This supports the use of multiple agent
394 sockets without needing to use fixed paths.
395 - sshd(8): support signalling sessions via the SSH protocol. A limited
396 subset of signals is supported and only for login or command sessions
397 (i.e. not subsystems) that were not subject to a forced command via
398 authorized_keys or sshd_config.
399 - ssh(1): support "ssh -Q sig" to list supported signature options.
400 Also "ssh -Q help" to show the full set of supported queries.
401 - ssh(1), sshd(8): add a CASignatureAlgorithms option for the client and
402 server configs to allow control over which signature formats are
403 allowed for CAs to sign certificates. For example, this allows
404 banning CAs that sign certificates using the RSA-SHA1 signature
405 algorithm.
406 - sshd(8), ssh-keygen(1): allow key revocation lists (KRLs) to revoke
407 keys specified by SHA256 hash.
408 - ssh-keygen(1): allow creation of key revocation lists directly from
409 base64-encoded SHA256 fingerprints. This supports revoking keys using
410 only the information contained in sshd(8) authentication log messages.
411 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): avoid spurious "invalid format" errors when
412 attempting to load PEM private keys while using an incorrect
413 passphrase.
414 - sshd(8): when a channel closed message is received from a client,
415 close the stderr file descriptor at the same time stdout is closed.
416 This avoids stuck processes if they were waiting for stderr to close
417 and were insensitive to stdin/out closing (closes: #844494).
418 - ssh(1): allow ForwardX11Timeout=0 to disable the untrusted X11
419 forwarding timeout and support X11 forwarding indefinitely.
420 Previously the behaviour of ForwardX11Timeout=0 was undefined.
421 - sshd(8): when compiled with GSSAPI support, cache supported method
422 OIDs regardless of whether GSSAPI authentication is enabled in the
423 main section of sshd_config. This avoids sandbox violations if GSSAPI
424 authentication was later enabled in a Match block.
425 - sshd(8): do not fail closed when configured with a text key revocation
426 list that contains a too-short key.
427 - ssh(1): treat connections with ProxyJump specified the same as ones
428 with a ProxyCommand set with regards to hostname canonicalisation
429 (i.e. don't try to canonicalise the hostname unless
430 CanonicalizeHostname is set to 'always').
431 - ssh(1): fix regression in OpenSSH 7.8 that could prevent public-key
432 authentication using certificates hosted in a ssh-agent(1) or against
433 sshd(8) from OpenSSH <7.8 (LP: #1790963).
434 - All: support building against the openssl-1.1 API (releases 1.1.0g and
435 later). The openssl-1.0 API will remain supported at least until
436 OpenSSL terminates security patch support for that API version
437 (closes: #828475).
438 - sshd(8): allow the futex(2) syscall in the Linux seccomp sandbox;
439 apparently required by some glibc/OpenSSL combinations.
440 * Remove dh_builddeb override to use xz compression; this has been the
441 default since dpkg 1.17.0.
442 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/default.mk.
443 * Remove /etc/network/if-up.d/openssh-server, as it causes more problems
444 than it solves (thanks, Christian Ehrhardt, Andreas Hasenack, and David
445 Britton; closes: #789532, LP: #1037738, #1674330, #1718227). Add an
446 "if-up hook removed" section to README.Debian documenting the corner
447 case that may need configuration adjustments.

452
453 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.8, closes:
454 #907534):
455 - ssh-keygen(1): Write OpenSSH format private keys by default instead of
456 using OpenSSL's PEM format (closes: #905407). The OpenSSH format,
457 supported in OpenSSH releases since 2014 and described in the
458 PROTOCOL.key file in the source distribution, offers substantially
459 better protection against offline password guessing and supports key
460 comments in private keys. If necessary, it is possible to write old
461 PEM-style keys by adding "-m PEM" to ssh-keygen's arguments when
462 generating or updating a key.
463 - sshd(8): Remove internal support for S/Key multiple factor
464 authentication. S/Key may still be used via PAM or BSD auth.
465 - ssh(1): Remove vestigial support for running ssh(1) as setuid. This
466 used to be required for hostbased authentication and the (long gone)
467 rhosts-style authentication, but has not been necessary for a long
468 time. Attempting to execute ssh as a setuid binary, or with uid !=
469 effective uid will now yield a fatal error at runtime.
470 - sshd(8): The semantics of PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and the similar
471 HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes options have changed. These now specify
472 signature algorithms that are accepted for their respective
473 authentication mechanism, where previously they specified accepted key
474 types. This distinction matters when using the RSA/SHA2 signature
475 algorithms "rsa-sha2-256", "rsa-sha2-512" and their certificate
476 counterparts. Configurations that override these options but omit
477 these algorithm names may cause unexpected authentication failures (no
478 action is required for configurations that accept the default for
479 these options).
480 - sshd(8): The precedence of session environment variables has changed.
481 ~/.ssh/environment and environment="..." options in authorized_keys
482 files can no longer override SSH_* variables set implicitly by sshd.
483 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): The default IPQoS used by ssh/sshd has changed. They
484 will now use DSCP AF21 for interactive traffic and CS1 for bulk. For
485 a detailed rationale, please see the commit message:
486 https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/src/usr.bin/ssh/readconf.c#rev1.284
487 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Add new signature algorithms "rsa-sha2-256-cert-
488 v01@openssh.com" and "rsa-sha2-512-cert-v01@openssh.com" to explicitly
489 force use of RSA/SHA2 signatures in authentication.
490 - sshd(8): Extend the PermitUserEnvironment option to accept a whitelist
491 of environment variable names in addition to global "yes" or "no"
492 settings.
493 - sshd(8): Add a PermitListen directive to sshd_config(5) and a
494 corresponding permitlisten= authorized_keys option that control which
495 listen addresses and port numbers may be used by remote forwarding
496 (ssh -R ...).
497 - sshd(8): Add some countermeasures against timing attacks used for
498 account validation/enumeration. sshd will enforce a minimum time or
499 each failed authentication attempt consisting of a global 5ms minimum
500 plus an additional per-user 0-4ms delay derived from a host secret.
501 - sshd(8): Add a SetEnv directive to allow an administrator to
502 explicitly specify environment variables in sshd_config. Variables
503 set by SetEnv override the default and client-specified environment.
504 - ssh(1): Add a SetEnv directive to request that the server sets an
505 environment variable in the session. Similar to the existing SendEnv
506 option, these variables are set subject to server configuration.
507 - ssh(1): Allow "SendEnv -PATTERN" to clear environment variables
508 previously marked for sending to the server (closes: #573316).
509 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Make UID available as a %-expansion everywhere that
510 the username is available currently.
511 - ssh(1): Allow setting ProxyJump=none to disable ProxyJump
512 functionality.
513 - sshd(8): Avoid observable differences in request parsing that could be
514 used to determine whether a target user is valid.
515 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix some memory leaks.
516 - ssh(1): Fix a pwent clobber (introduced in openssh-7.7) that could
517 occur during key loading, manifesting as crash on some platforms.
518 - sshd_config(5): Clarify documentation for AuthenticationMethods
519 option.
520 - ssh(1): Ensure that the public key algorithm sent in a public key
521 SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_REQUEST matches the content of the signature blob.
522 Previously, these could be inconsistent when a legacy or non-OpenSSH
523 ssh-agent returned a RSA/SHA1 signature when asked to make a RSA/SHA2
524 signature.
525 - sshd(8): Fix failures to read authorized_keys caused by faulty
526 supplemental group caching.
527 - scp(1): Apply umask to directories, fixing potential mkdir/chmod race
528 when copying directory trees.
529 - ssh-keygen(1): Return correct exit code when searching for and hashing
530 known_hosts entries in a single operation.
531 - ssh(1): Prefer the ssh binary pointed to via argv[0] to $PATH when
532 re-executing ssh for ProxyJump.
533 - sshd(8): Do not ban PTY allocation when a sshd session is restricted
534 because the user password is expired as it breaks password change
535 dialog.
536 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix error reporting from select() failures.
537 - ssh(1): Improve documentation for -w (tunnel) flag, emphasising that
538 -w implicitly sets Tunnel=point-to-point.
539 - ssh-agent(1): Implement EMFILE mitigation for ssh-agent. ssh-agent
540 will no longer spin when its file descriptor limit is exceeded.
541 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Disable SSH2_MSG_DEBUG messages for Twisted Conch
542 clients. Twisted Conch versions that lack a version number in their
543 identification strings will mishandle these messages when running on
544 Python 2.x (https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9422).
545 - sftp(1): Notify user immediately when underlying ssh process dies
546 expectedly.
547 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix tunnel forwarding; regression in 7.7 release.
548 - ssh-agent(1): Don't kill ssh-agent's listening socket entirely if it
549 fails to accept(2) a connection.
550 - ssh(1): Add some missing options in the configuration dump output (ssh
551 -G).
552 - sshd(8): Expose details of completed authentication to PAM auth
553 modules via SSH_AUTH_INFO_0 in the PAM environment.
554 * Switch debian/watch to HTTPS.
555 * Temporarily work around https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9515 in
556 regression tests.

591openssh (1:7.7p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
592
593 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.7):
594 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Drop compatibility support for some very old SSH
595 implementations, including ssh.com <=2.* and OpenSSH <= 3.*. These
596 versions were all released in or before 2001 and predate the final SSH
597 RFCs. The support in question isn't necessary for RFC-compliant SSH
598 implementations.
599 - Add experimental support for PQC XMSS keys (Extended Hash-Based
600 Signatures).
601 - sshd(8): Add an "rdomain" criterion for the sshd_config Match keyword
602 to allow conditional configuration that depends on which routing
603 domain a connection was received on.
604 - sshd_config(5): Add an optional rdomain qualifier to the ListenAddress
605 directive to allow listening on different routing domains.
606 - sshd(8): Add "expiry-time" option for authorized_keys files to allow
607 for expiring keys.
608 - ssh(1): Add a BindInterface option to allow binding the outgoing
609 connection to an interface's address (basically a more usable
610 BindAddress; closes: #289592).
611 - ssh(1): Expose device allocated for tun/tap forwarding via a new %T
612 expansion for LocalCommand. This allows LocalCommand to be used to
613 prepare the interface.
614 - sshd(8): Expose the device allocated for tun/tap forwarding via a new
615 SSH_TUNNEL environment variable. This allows automatic setup of the
616 interface and surrounding network configuration automatically on the
617 server.
618 - ssh(1)/scp(1)/sftp(1): Add URI support to ssh, sftp and scp, e.g.
619 ssh://user@host or sftp://user@host/path. Additional connection
620 parameters described in draft-ietf-secsh-scp-sftp-ssh-uri-04 are not
621 implemented since the ssh fingerprint format in the draft uses the
622 deprecated MD5 hash with no way to specify any other algorithm.
623 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow certificate validity intervals that specify only
624 a start or stop time (instead of both or neither).
625 - sftp(1): Allow "cd" and "lcd" commands with no explicit path argument.
626 lcd will change to the local user's home directory as usual. cd will
627 change to the starting directory for session (because the protocol
628 offers no way to obtain the remote user's home directory).
629 - sshd(8): When doing a config test with sshd -T, only require the
630 attributes that are actually used in Match criteria rather than (an
631 incomplete list of) all criteria.
632 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): More strictly check signature types during key
633 exchange against what was negotiated. Prevents downgrade of RSA
634 signatures made with SHA-256/512 to SHA-1.
635 - sshd(8): Fix support for client that advertise a protocol version of
636 "1.99" (indicating that they are prepared to accept both SSHv1 and
637 SSHv2). This was broken in OpenSSH 7.6 during the removal of SSHv1
638 support.
639 - ssh(1): Warn when the agent returns a ssh-rsa (SHA1) signature when a
640 rsa-sha2-256/512 signature was requested. This condition is possible
641 when an old or non-OpenSSH agent is in use.
642 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression introduced in 7.6 that caused ssh-agent
643 to fatally exit if presented an invalid signature request message.
644 - sshd_config(5): Accept yes/no flag options case-insensitively, as has
645 been the case in ssh_config(5) for a long time (LP: #1656557).
646 - ssh(1): Improve error reporting for failures during connection. Under
647 some circumstances misleading errors were being shown.
648 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add -D option to allow printing of results directly in
649 SSHFP format.
650 - ssh(1): Compatibility fix for some servers that erroneously drop the
651 connection when the IUTF8 (RFC8160) option is sent.
652 - scp(1): Disable RemoteCommand and RequestTTY in the ssh session
653 started by scp (sftp was already doing this).
654 - ssh-keygen(1): Refuse to create a certificate with an unusable number
655 of principals.
656 - ssh-keygen(1): Fatally exit if ssh-keygen is unable to write all the
657 public key during key generation. Previously it would silently ignore
658 errors writing the comment and terminating newline.
659 - ssh(1): Do not modify hostname arguments that are addresses by
660 automatically forcing them to lower-case. Instead canonicalise them
661 jo resolve ambiguities (e.g. ::0001 => ::1) before they are matched
662 against known_hosts.
663 - ssh(1): Don't accept junk after "yes" or "no" responses to hostkey
664 prompts.
665 - sftp(1): Have sftp print a warning about shell cleanliness when
666 decoding the first packet fails, which is usually caused by shells
667 polluting stdout of non-interactive startups.
668 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Switch timers in packet code from using wall-clock
669 time to monotonic time, allowing the packet layer to better function
670 over a clock step and avoiding possible integer overflows during
671 steps.
672 - sshd(8): Correctly detect MIPS ABI in use at configure time. Fixes
673 sandbox violations on some environments.
674 - Build and link with "retpoline" flags when available to mitigate the
675 "branch target injection" style (variant 2) of the Spectre
676 branch-prediction vulnerability.

724
725 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.6):
726 - CVE-2017-15906: sftp-server(8): In read-only mode, sftp-server was
727 incorrectly permitting creation of zero-length files. Reported by
728 Michal Zalewski.
729 - ssh(1): Delete SSH protocol version 1 support, associated
730 configuration options and documentation (LP: #1584321).
731 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove support for the hmac-ripemd160 MAC.
732 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove support for the arcfour, blowfish and CAST
733 ciphers.
734 - Refuse RSA keys <1024 bits in length and improve reporting for keys
735 that do not meet this requirement.
736 - ssh(1): Do not offer CBC ciphers by default.
737 - ssh(1): Add RemoteCommand option to specify a command in the ssh
738 config file instead of giving it on the client's command line. This
739 allows the configuration file to specify the command that will be
740 executed on the remote host.
741 - sshd(8): Add ExposeAuthInfo option that enables writing details of the
742 authentication methods used (including public keys where applicable)
743 to a file that is exposed via a $SSH_USER_AUTH environment variable in
744 the subsequent session.
745 - ssh(1): Add support for reverse dynamic forwarding. In this mode, ssh
746 will act as a SOCKS4/5 proxy and forward connections to destinations
747 requested by the remote SOCKS client. This mode is requested using
748 extended syntax for the -R and RemoteForward options and, because it
749 is implemented solely at the client, does not require the server be
750 updated to be supported.
751 - sshd(8): Allow LogLevel directive in sshd_config Match blocks.
752 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow inclusion of arbitrary string or flag certificate
753 extensions and critical options.
754 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to use a key held in ssh-agent as a CA
755 when signing certificates.
756 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Allow IPQoS=none in ssh/sshd to not set an explicit
757 ToS/DSCP value and just use the operating system default.
758 - ssh-add(1): Add -q option to make ssh-add quiet on success.
759 - ssh(1): Expand the StrictHostKeyChecking option with two new settings.
760 The first "accept-new" will automatically accept hitherto-unseen keys
761 but will refuse connections for changed or invalid hostkeys. This is
762 a safer subset of the current behaviour of StrictHostKeyChecking=no.
763 The second setting "off", is a synonym for the current behaviour of
764 StrictHostKeyChecking=no: accept new host keys, and continue
765 connection for hosts with incorrect hostkeys. A future release will
766 change the meaning of StrictHostKeyChecking=no to the behaviour of
767 "accept-new".
768 - ssh(1): Add SyslogFacility option to ssh(1) matching the equivalent
769 option in sshd(8).
770 - ssh(1): Use HostKeyAlias if specified instead of hostname for matching
771 host certificate principal names.
772 - sftp(1): Implement sorting for globbed ls.
773 - ssh(1): Add a user@host prefix to client's "Permission denied"
774 messages, useful in particular when using "stacked" connections (e.g.
775 ssh -J) where it's not clear which host is denying.
776 - ssh(1): Accept unknown EXT_INFO extension values that contain \0
777 characters. These are legal, but would previously cause fatal
778 connection errors if received.
779 - sftp(1): Print '?' instead of incorrect link count (that the protocol
780 doesn't provide) for remote listings.
781 - ssh(1): Return failure rather than fatal() for more cases during
782 session multiplexing negotiations. Causes the session to fall back to
783 a non-mux connection if they occur.
784 - ssh(1): Mention that the server may send debug messages to explain
785 public key authentication problems under some circumstances.
786 - Translate OpenSSL error codes to better report incorrect passphrase
787 errors when loading private keys.
788 - sshd(8): Adjust compatibility patterns for WinSCP to correctly
789 identify versions that implement only the legacy DH group exchange
790 scheme (closes: #877800).
791 - ssh(1): Print the "Killed by signal 1" message only at LogLevel
792 verbose so that it is not shown at the default level; prevents it from
793 appearing during ssh -J and equivalent ProxyCommand configs.
794 - ssh-keygen(1): When generating all hostkeys (ssh-keygen -A), clobber
795 existing keys if they exist but are zero length. Zero-length keys
796 could previously be made if ssh-keygen failed or was interrupted part
797 way through generating them.
798 - ssh-keyscan(1): Avoid double-close() on file descriptors.
799 - sshd(8): Avoid reliance on shared use of pointers shared between
800 monitor and child sshd processes.
801 - sshd_config(8): Document available AuthenticationMethods.
802 - ssh(1): Avoid truncation in some login prompts.
803 - ssh(1): Make "--" before the hostname terminate argument processing
804 after the hostname too (closes: #873201).
805 - ssh-keygen(1): Switch from aes256-cbc to aes256-ctr for encrypting
806 new-style private keys.
807 - ssh(1): Warn and do not attempt to use keys when the public and
808 private halves do not match.
809 - sftp(1): Don't print verbose error message when ssh disconnects from
810 under sftp.
811 - sshd(8): Fix keepalive scheduling problem: prevent activity on a
812 forwarded port from preventing the keepalive from being sent.
813 - sshd(8): When started without root privileges, don't require the
814 privilege separation user or path to exist.
815 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Correctness fix for channels implementation: accept
816 channel IDs greater than 0x7FFFFFFF.
817 - sshd(8): Expose list of completed authentication methods to PAM via
818 the SSH_AUTH_INFO_0 PAM environment variable.
819 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix several problems in the tun/tap forwarding code,
820 mostly to do with host/network byte order confusion.
821 - sshd(8): Avoid Linux seccomp violations on ppc64le over the socketcall
822 syscall.
823 * Build-depend on debhelper (>= 9.20160709~) rather than dh-systemd.
824 * Change priorities of ssh and ssh-krb5 binary packages to optional, since
825 "Priority: extra" is now deprecated.

928
929 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.5):
930 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle
931 countermeasures that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH
932 7.3 to proceed. Note that the OpenSSH client disables CBC ciphers by
933 default, sshd offers them as lowest-preference options and will remove
934 them by default entirely in the next release.
935 - This release deprecates the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation option,
936 thereby making privilege separation mandatory (closes: #407754).
937 - The format of several log messages emitted by the packet code has
938 changed to include additional information about the user and their
939 authentication state. Software that monitors ssh/sshd logs may need
940 to account for these changes.
941 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
942 algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
943 - sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start messages
944 are sent out of sequence.
945 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in configuration
946 files.
947 - sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the server-sig-algs
948 extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were not being correctly
949 advertised.
950 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
951 known_hosts processing.
952 - ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
953 file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
954 - ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option, accept
955 RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype. Previously,
956 ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-* methods were
957 enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa method.
958 - ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file lines.
959 - Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat and
960 FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor leaks in
961 error paths.
962 - ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
963 "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
964 - ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
965 line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat square
966 bracket characters specially.
967 - Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol 1
968 support from the server, including the server banner string being
969 incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing error
970 messages from ssh-keyscan, and a segfault in sshd if protocol v.1 was
971 enabled for the client and sshd_config contained references to legacy
972 keys.
973 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
974 - sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server returns
975 zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
976 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
977 encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
978 - ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
979 printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
980 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
981 feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
982 - sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
983 AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
984 matched early.
985 - ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
986 cancellation.
987 - ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files can't
988 be opened.
989 - sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token in
990 AuthorizedKeysCommand.
991 - sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM.
992 - ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and common
993 32-bit compatibility library directories.
994 - sftp-client(1): Fix non-exploitable integer overflow in SSH2_FXP_NAME
995 response handling.
996 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression in 7.4 of deleting PKCS#11-hosted keys.
997 It was not possible to delete them except by specifying their full
998 physical path.
999 - sshd(8): Avoid sandbox errors for Linux S390 systems using an ICA
1000 crypto coprocessor.
1001 - sshd(8): Fix non-exploitable weakness in seccomp-bpf sandbox arg
1002 inspection.
1003 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sftp(1): Fix output truncation for various that
1004 contain non-printable characters where the codeset in use is ASCII.

1103openssh (1:7.4p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
1104
1105 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
1106 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
1107 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
1108 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
1109 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
1110 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
1111 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
1112 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
1113 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
1114 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
1115 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
1116 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
1117 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
1118 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
1119 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
1120 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
1121 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
1122 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
1123 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
1124 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
1125 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
1126 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
1127 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
1128 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
1129 (closes: #848714).
1130 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
1131 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
1132 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
1133 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
1134 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
1135 years) (closes: #848715).
1136 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
1137 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
1138 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
1139 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
1140 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
1141 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
1142 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
1143 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
1144 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
1145 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
1146 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
1147 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
1148 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
1149 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
1150 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
1151 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
1152 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
1153 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
1154 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
1155 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
1156 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
1157 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
1158 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
1159 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
1160 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
1161 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
1162 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
1163 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
1164 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
1165 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
1166 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
1167 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
1168 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
1169 way of restricting an account.
1170 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
1171 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
1172 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
1173 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
1174 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
1175 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
1176 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
1177 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
1178 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
1179 configuration error.
1180 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
1181 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
1182 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
1183 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
1184 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
1185 being offered.
1186 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
1187 that have no corresponding bare public key.
1188 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
1189 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
1190 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
1191 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
1192 messages.
1193 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
1194 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
1195 - sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before suspending
1196 sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode correctly if
1197 suspended during a password prompt.
1198 - ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
1199 prompt (LP: #1646813).
1200 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-info
1201 messages.
1202 - sshd(8): Fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-sequence
1203 NEWKEYS message.
1204 - sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in the
1205 server-sig-algs extension.
1206 - sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
1207 - sshd(8): More strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
1208 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
1209 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
1210 configuration.
1211 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
1212 configuration examples.
1213 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
1214 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that
1215 locale's unique handling of the letters 'i' and 'I' (LP: #1638338).
1216 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
1217 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
1218 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
1219 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
1220 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
1221 generated on new installations.
1222 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
1223 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
1224 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
1225 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
1226 #419574, #848089):
1227 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
1228 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
1229 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
1230 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
1231 I've missed some.
1232 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
1233 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
1234 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
1235 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
1236 than "yes", per upstream.
1237 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
1238 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to
1239 300 by default if BatchMode is set is Debian-specific (closes: #765630).
1240 * Build gnome-ssh-askpass with GTK+ 3 (LP: #801187).
1241 * When running regression tests under autopkgtest, use a non-root user
1242 with passwordless sudo.

1284
1285 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
1286 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
1287 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
1288 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
1289 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
1290 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
1291 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
1292 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
1293 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
1294 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
1295 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
1296 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
1297 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
1298 though no such leakage has been observed.
1299 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
1300 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
1301 "jump hosts".
1302 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
1303 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.
1304 - ssh(1): Allow ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings to be
1305 optionally overridden when using ssh -W.
1306 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Implement support for the IUTF8 terminal mode as per
1307 draft-sgtatham-secsh-iutf8-00 (closes: #337041, LP: #394570).
1308 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for additional fixed Diffie-Hellman 2K,
1309 4K and 8K groups from draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2-03.
1310 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sshd(8): Support SHA256 and SHA512 RSA
1311 signatures in certificates.
1312 - ssh(1): Add an Include directive for ssh_config(5) files (closes:
1313 #536031).
1314 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
1315 from the server.
1316 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
1317 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
1318 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
1319 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
1320 multiple authentication.
1321 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
1322 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
1323 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
1324 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
1325 are enabled.
1326 - sshd(8): Remove fallback from moduli to obsolete "primes" file that
1327 was deprecated in 2001 (LP: #1528251).
1328 - sshd_config(5): Correct description of UseDNS: it affects ssh hostname
1329 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
1330 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
1331 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
1332 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf
1333 sandbox.
1334 - scp(1): Respect the local user's LC_CTYPE locale (closes: #396295).
1335 - Take character display widths into account for the progressmeter
1336 (closes: #407088).

1440 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
1441 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
1442 default in ssh:
1443 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
1444 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
1445 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
1446 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
1447 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
1448 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
1449 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
1450 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
1451 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
1452 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
1453 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
1454 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
1455 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
1456 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
1457 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
1458 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
1459 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
1460 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
1461 'confirm').
1462 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
1463 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
1464 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
1465 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
1466 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
1467 we might implement in the future.
1468 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
1469 certificates.
1470 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
1471 supported formats (closes: #811125).
1472 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
1473 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
1474 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
1475 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
1476 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
1477 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
1478 default.
1479 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
1480 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
1481 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
1482 certificates instead of plain keys.
1483 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
1484 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
1485 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
1486 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate
1487 recursive uploads (regression in OpenSSH 6.8; LP: #1553378).
1488 * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs, and link to cgit rather than gitweb.
1489 * Restore slogin symlinks for compatibility, although they were removed
1490 upstream.

1577 disabled by default at run-time. It may be re-enabled using the
1578 instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html

1580 default at run-time. These may be re-enabled using the instructions
1581 at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
1582 - Support for the legacy v00 cert format has been removed.
1583 - The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has changed
1584 from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
1585 - PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
1586 interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
1587 hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
1588 keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those were
1589 enabled).
1590 - ssh_config(5): Add PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes option to control which
1591 public key types are available for user authentication.
1592 - sshd_config(5): Add HostKeyAlgorithms option to control which public
1593 key types are offered for host authentications.
1594 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Extend Ciphers, MACs, KexAlgorithms,
1595 HostKeyAlgorithms, PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and HostbasedKeyTypes
1596 options to allow appending to the default set of algorithms instead of
1597 replacing it. Options may now be prefixed with a '+' to append to the
1598 default, e.g. "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss".
1599 - sshd_config(5): PermitRootLogin now accepts an argument of
1600 'prohibit-password' as a less-ambiguous synonym of 'without-
1601 password'.
1602 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatability workarounds for Cisco and more
1603 PuTTY versions.
1604 - Fix some omissions and errors in the PROTOCOL and PROTOCOL.mux
1605 documentation relating to Unix domain socket forwarding.
1606 - ssh(1): Improve the ssh(1) manual page to include a better description
1607 of Unix domain socket forwarding (closes: #779068).

1616 - sshd(8): OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in PermitRootLogin=
1617 prohibit-password/without-password that could, depending on
1618 compile-time configuration, permit password authentication to root
1619 while preventing other forms of authentication. This problem was

1658
1659 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
1660 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
1661 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
1662 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
1663 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
1664 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
1665 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
1666 from hex to base64.
1667 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
1668 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
1669 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
1670 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
1671 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
1672 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
1673 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
1674 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
1675 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
1676 option (default off).
1677 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
1678 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
1679 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
1680 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
1681 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
1682 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
1683 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
1684 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
1685 authentication.
1686 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
1687 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
1688 decryption.
1689 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
1690 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
1691 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
1692 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
1693 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
1694 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
1695 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
1696 all.
1697 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
1698 against MaxAuthTries.
1699 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
1700 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
1701 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
1702 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
1703 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
1704 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
1705 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
1706 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
1707 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
1708 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against
1709 servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol (closes: #241119).
1710 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were
1711 being lost as comment fields (closes: #787776).
1712 - ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse
1713 phase to be applied (they were being ignored; closes: #774369).
1714 - ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the
1715 second pass through the config files always run when host name
1716 canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes)
1717 - ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection
1718 multiplexing is in use.
1719 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH
1720 formats.
1721 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use.
1722 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
1723 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
1724 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
1725 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
1726 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
1727 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
1728 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
1729 by Jann Horn.
1730 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
1731 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
1732 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
1733 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
1734 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
1735 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
1736 (closes: #740494).
1737 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
1738 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
1739 file.
1740 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
1741 devices.
1742 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
1743 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
1744 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
1745 enabling debug mode.
1746 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
1747 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
1748 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
1749 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
1750 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
1751 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).
1752 - ssh(1): Fix out-of-bound read in EscapeChar configuration option
1753 parsing.
1754 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
1755 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
1756 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
1757 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from
1758 the list of active forwards.
1759 - sshd(8): Make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options
1760 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
1761 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
1762 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
1763 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
1764 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
1765 options to appear in any order.
1766 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
1767 and ForceCommand.
1768 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
1769 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
1770 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
1771 forwarding requested.
1772 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
1773 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
1774 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
1775 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
1776 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
1777 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
1778 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
1779 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
1780 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
1781 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
1782 host key fingerprints.
1783 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
1784 language consistent.
1785 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
1786 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
1787 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
1788 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
1789 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
1790 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
1791 to fix security issues:
1792 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
1793 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
1794 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
1795 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
1796 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
1797 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
1798 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
1799 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
1800 Moritz Jodeit.
1801 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
1802 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
1803 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
1804 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
1805 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
1806 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
1807 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
1808 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
1809 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
1810 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
1811 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
1812 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
1813 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
1814 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
1815 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
1816 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

1835 - Send/accept only specific known LC_* variables, rather than using a
1836 wildcard.
1837 * Add a NEWS.Debian entry documenting this reversion, as it is too
1838 difficult to undo the sshd_config change automatically without
1839 compounding the problem of (arguably) overwriting user configuration.

1868 ci.debian.net.

1872openssh (1:6.7p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
1873
1874 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
1875 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
1876 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
1877 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
1878 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
1879 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
1880 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
1881 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
1882 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
1883 key types.
1884 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
1885 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
1886 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
1887 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
1888 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
1889 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
1890 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
1891 option.
1892 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
1893 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
1894 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
1895 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
1896 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
1897 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
1898 authentication success / failure messages.
1899 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
1900 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
1901 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
1902 #734553).
1903 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
1904 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
1905 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
1906 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
1907 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
1908 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
1909 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
1910 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
1911 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
1912 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
1913 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
1914 field.
1915 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
1916 simply a new enough dpkg.
1917 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
1918 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
1919 field.
1920 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
1921 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

2068 * Clarify socket activation mode in README.Debian, as suggested by Uoti
2069 Urpala.
2070 * Stop claiming that "Protocol 2" is a Debian-specific default; this has
2071 been upstream's default since 5.4p1.
2072 * Avoid stdout noise from which(1) on purge of openssh-client.
2073 * Fix sysvinit->systemd transition code to cope with still-running
2074 sysvinit jobs being considered active by systemd (thanks, Uoti Urpala
2075 and Michael Biebl).
2076 * Bump guard version for sysvinit->systemd transition to 1:6.5p1-3; we may
2077 have got it wrong before, and it's fairly harmless to repeat it.
2078 * Remove tests for whether /dev/null is a character device from the
2079 Upstart job and the systemd service files; it's there to avoid a
2080 confusing failure mode in daemon(), but with modern init systems we use
2081 the -D option to suppress daemonisation anyway.
2082 * Refer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 in debian/copyright (for the
2083 Debian patch) rather than plain GPL.
2084 * Drop some very old Conflicts and Replaces (ssh (<< 1:3.8.1p1-9),
2085 rsh-client (<< 0.16.1-1), ssh-krb5 (<< 1:4.3p2-7), ssh-nonfree (<< 2),
2086 and openssh-client (<< 1:3.8.1p1-11)). These all relate to pre-etch
2087 versions, for which we no longer have maintainer script code, and per
2088 policy they would have to become Breaks nowadays anyway.
2089 * Policy version 3.9.5.
2090 * Drop unnecessary -1 in zlib1g Build-Depends version.
2091 * Tweak dh_systemd_enable invocations to avoid lots of error noise.

2105
2106 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.5,
2107 LP: #1275068):
2108 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
2109 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
2110 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
2111 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking
2112 host certificate names (closes: #115286).
2113 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
2114 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
2115 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
2116 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
2117 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
2118 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
2119 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See
2120 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full
2121 reasoning.
2122 * Add OpenPGP signature checking configuration to watch file (thanks,
2123 Daniel Kahn Gillmor; closes: #732441).
2124 * Add the pam_keyinit session module, to create a new session keyring on
2125 login (closes: #734816).
2126 * Incorporate default path changes from shadow 1:4.0.18.1-8, removing
2127 /usr/bin/X11 (closes: #644521).
2128 * Generate ED25519 host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish
2129 to add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
2130 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run
2131 'ssh-keygen -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key -N "" -t ed25519'.
2132 * Drop long-obsolete "SSH now uses protocol 2 by default" section from
2133 README.Debian.
2134 * Add systemd support (thanks, Sven Joachim; closes: #676830).

2149 - 6.3/6.3p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.3):
2150 + sftp(1): add support for resuming partial downloads using the
2151 "reget" command and on the sftp commandline or on the "get"
2152 commandline using the "-a" (append) option (closes: #158590).
2153 + ssh(1): add an "IgnoreUnknown" configuration option to selectively
2154 suppress errors arising from unknown configuration directives
2155 (closes: #436052).
2156 + sftp(1): update progressmeter when data is acknowledged, not when
2157 it's sent (partially addresses #708372).
2158 + ssh(1): do not fatally exit when attempting to cleanup multiplexing-
2159 created channels that are incompletely opened (closes: #651357).
2160 - 6.4/6.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.4):
2161 + CVE-2013-4548: sshd(8): fix a memory corruption problem triggered
2162 during rekeying when an AES-GCM cipher is selected (closes:
2163 #729029). Full details of the vulnerability are available at:
2164 http://www.openssh.com/txt/gcmrekey.adv
2165 * When running under Upstart, only consider the daemon started once it is
2166 ready to accept connections (by raising SIGSTOP at that point and using
2167 "expect stop").

2208 near the end of the postinst, so it shouldn't result in any appreciable
2209 extra window where sshd is not running during upgrade.

2212
2213openssh (1:6.2p2-2) unstable; urgency=low
2214
2215 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
2216 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
2217 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
2218 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
2219 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
2220 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
2221 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
2222 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
2223 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
2224 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
2225 the packaging.
2226 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
2227 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
2228 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
2229 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
2230 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
2231 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
2232 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
2233 openssh-server.postinst.
2234 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
2235 via dh_installdeb.
2236 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
2237 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
2238 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
2239 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
2240 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
2241 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
2242 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
2243 chroot.
2244 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
2245 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
2246 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
2247 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.
2248 * This removes the last of our uses of debconf (closes: #221531).
2249 * Use the pam_loginuid session module (thanks, Laurent Bigonville; closes:
2250 #677440, LP: #1067779).
2251 * Bracket our session stack with calls to pam_selinux close/open (thanks,

2521 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.7):
2522 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
2523 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
2524 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
2525 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
2526 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
2527 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
2528 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
2529 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
2530 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
2531 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
2532 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
2533 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
2534 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
2535 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
2536 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
2537 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
2538 (closes: #594687).
2539 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
2540 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
2541 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
2542 it to be stripped off).
2543 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2544 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
2545 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
2546 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
2547 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
2548 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
2549 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
2550 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
2551 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
2552 * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this

2671 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
2672 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
2673 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
2674 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
2675 or on the command-line.
2676 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
2677 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
2678 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
2679 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
2680 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
2681 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
2682 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
2683 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
2684 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
2685 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
2686 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
2687 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
2688 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
2689 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
2690 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
2691 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
2692 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
2693 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
2694 (closes: #270399, #428082).
2695 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
2696 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
2697 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
2698 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
2699
2700 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
2701 patches apply with offsets.
2702 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
2703 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
2704 around with uudecode.
2705 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
2706 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
2707 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
2708 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
2709 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
2710 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
2711 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
2712 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
2713 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
2714 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
2715 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
2716 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
2717 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
2718 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
2719 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
2720 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
2721 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
2722 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
2723 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
2724 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
2725 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
2726 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
2727 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
2728 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
2729 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
2730 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
2731 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
2732 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
2733 * Policy version 3.8.4:

2805 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
2806 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
2807 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
2808 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
2809 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
2810 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
2811 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
2812 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
2813 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
2814 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
2815 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
2816 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the

2821 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
2822 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
2823 openssh-5.1.
2824 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
2825 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
2826 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).
2827 - Disable nonfunctional ssh(1) ~C escape handler in multiplex slave
2828 connections (closes: #507541).
2829 - Fix "whitepsace" typo in ssh_config(5) (closes: #514313, LP: #303835).
2830 * Update to GSSAPI patch from
2831 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.2p1-gsskex-all-20090726.patch,
2832 including cascading credentials support (LP: #416958).
2833 * Use x11.pc when compiling/linking gnome-ssh-askpass2 (closes: #555951).
2834 * Moved to bzr.debian.org; add Vcs-Bzr and Vcs-Browser control fields.
2835 * Add debian/README.source with instructions on bzr handling.
2836 * Make ChrootDirectory work with SELinux (thanks, Russell Coker; closes:
2837 #556644).
2838 * Initialise sc to NULL in ssh_selinux_getctxbyname (thanks, Václav Ovsík;

2844 * Update OpenSSH FAQ to revision 1.110.
2845 * Remove ssh/new_config, only needed for direct upgrades from potato which
2846 are no longer particularly feasible anyway (closes: #420682).
2847 * Cope with insserv reordering of init script links.
2848 * Remove init script stop link in rc1, as killprocs handles it already.
2849 * Adjust short descriptions to avoid relying on previous experience with
2850 rsh, based on suggestions from Reuben Thomas (closes: #512198).
2851 * Remove manual page references to login.conf, which aren't applicable on
2852 non-BSD systems (closes: #154434).
2853 * Remove/adjust manual page references to BSD-specific /etc/rc (closes:
2854 #513417).
2855 * Refer to sshd_config(5) rather than sshd(8) in postinst-written
2856 /etc/ssh/sshd_config, and add UsePAM commentary from upstream-shipped
2857 configuration file (closes: #415008, although unfortunately this will
2858 only be conveniently visible on new installations).
2859 * Include URL to OpenBSD's ssl(8) in ssh(1), since I don't see a better
2860 source for the same information among Debian's manual pages (closes:
2861 #530692, LP: #456660).

2913 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there

2960
2961 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
2962 backported to 4.7p1:
2963 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
2964 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
2965 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
2966 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
2967 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
2968 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
2969 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
2970 inside the chroot environment.
2971 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
2972 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
2973 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
2974 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
2975 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
2976 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
2977 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
2978 also allow Protocol 1.
2979 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
2980 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
2981 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
2982 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
2983 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
2984 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
2985 embedded backslash escape sequences.
2986 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
2987 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
2988 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
2989 /bin/sh.
2990 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
2991 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
2992 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
2993 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
2994 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
2995 connections via a ProxyCommand.
2996 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
2997 #140828).
2998 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
2999 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
3000 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
3001 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
3002 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
3003 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
3004 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
3005 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
3006 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
3007 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
3008 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
3009 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
3010 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
3011 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
3012 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
3013 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
3014 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
3015 (LP: #119295).
3016 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
3017 chroot (LP: #237557).
3018 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
3019 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
3020 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
3021 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
3022 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
3023 rejection of changed host keys.
3024 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
3025 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
3026 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
3027 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
3028 matching.
3029 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
3030 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
3031 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
3032 source address and hostname) to test the application of
3033 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
3034 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
3035 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
3036 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
3037 connections only).
3038 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
3039 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
3040 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
3041 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
3042 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
3043 the server).
3044 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
3045 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
3046 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
3047 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
3048 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
3049 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
3050 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
3051 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
3052 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
3053 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
3054 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
3055 hijacked.
3056 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
3057 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
3058 fingerprint.
3059 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
3060 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
3061 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
3062 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
3063 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
3064 forwarder.
3065 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
3066 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
3067 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
3068 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
3069 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
3070 address and give up if that failed.
3071 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
3072 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
3073 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
3074 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
3075 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
3076 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
3077 from 768 to 1024 bits.
3078 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
3079 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
3080 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
3081 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
3082 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
3083 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
3084 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
3085 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
3086 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
3087 blocks.
3088 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
3089 that are available to a primary connection.
3090 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
3091 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
3092 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
3093 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
3094 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
3095 server runs out of file descriptors).
3096 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
3097 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
3098 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
3099 platforms.
3100 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
3101 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
3102 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
3103 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
3104 targets).
3105 * Merge from Ubuntu:
3106 - Add 'status' action to openssh-server init script, requiring lsb-base
3107 (>= 3.2-13) (thanks, Dustin Kirkland).

3341 * New upstream release (closes: #453367).
3342 - CVE-2007-4752: Prevent ssh(1) from using a trusted X11 cookie if
3343 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
3344 (closes: #444738).
3345 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
3346 installations are unchanged.
3347 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
3348 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
3349 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
3350 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
3351 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
3352 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
3353 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
3354 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
3355 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
3356 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
3357 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
3358 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
3359 without passing the full exit status.
3360 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
3361 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
3362 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
3363 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
3364 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
3365 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
3366 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
3367 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
3368 mechanisms.
3369 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
3370 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
3371 into the client.
3372 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
3373 have been established.
3374 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
3375 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
3376 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
3377 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
3378 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed
3379 (closes: #405041).
3380 - Manual page datestamps updated (closes: #433181).
3381 * Install the OpenSSH FAQ in /usr/share/doc/openssh-client.

3491
3492 * New upstream release (closes: #395507, #397961, #420035). Important
3493 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
3494 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.4):
3495 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
3496 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
3497 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
3498 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
3499 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
3500 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
3501 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
3502 be added in future releases.
3503 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
3504 final hash of SHA256.
3505 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
3506 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
3507 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
3508 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
3509 option.
3510 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
3511 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
3512 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
3513 establish.
3514 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
3515 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
3516 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
3517 (closes: #50612).
3518 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
3519 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
3520 established.
3521 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
3522 specification of command-line arguments.
3523 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
3524 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
3525 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
3526 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
3527 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
3528 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
3529 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
3530 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
3531 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
3532 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
3533 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
3534 liberal (closes: #103677).
3535 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
3536 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
3537 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
3538 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
3539 in sshd_config.
3540 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
3541 progress meter (closes: #257524).
3542 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
3543 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
3544 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
3545 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
3546 install ChangeLog.gssapi.
3547 * Build the .deb --with-ssl-engine (closes: #408027, LP: #119295).
3548 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
3549 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).
3550 * Move init script start links to S16, move rc1 stop link to K84, and
3551 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
3552 closes: #122188).
3553 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
3554 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
3555 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
3556 * Merge from Ubuntu:
3557 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
3558 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
3559 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
3560 the default path.
3561 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
3562 openssh-client dependency.

3763 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
3764 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
3765 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
3766 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
3767 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
3768 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
3769 scp (closes: #349645).
3770 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
3771 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
3772 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
3773 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
3774 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
3775 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3776 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
3777 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
3778 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
3779 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
3780 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
3781 background at the time of session exit.
3782 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
3783 without arguments (closes: #114894).

3785 Kerberos authentication.

3787 (closes: #259865).
3788 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
3789 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
3790 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
3791 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:

3793 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
3794 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
3795 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
3796 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
3797 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
3798 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
3799 - Many manual page improvements.
3800 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
3801 possible crashes.

3803 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.3p2-gsskex-20060223.patch
3804 (closes: #352042).

3806 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
3807 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
3808 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
3809 (closes: #349896).
3810 * Rephrase ssh/new_config and ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen debconf
3811 templates to make boolean short descriptions end with a question mark
3812 and to avoid use of the first person.

3976 only conflicts with ssh (closes: #312475).
3977 * SELinux support (thanks, Manoj Srivastava; closes: #308555):
3978 - Added SELinux capability, and turned it on be default. Added
3979 restorecon calls in preinst and postinst (should not matter if the
3980 machine is not SELinux aware). By and large, the changes made should
3981 have no effect unless the rules file calls --with-selinux; and even
3982 then there should be no performance hit for machines not actively
3983 running SELinux.
3984 - Modified the preinst and postinst to call restorecon to set the
3985 security context for the generated public key files.
3986 - Added a comment to /etc/pam.d/ssh to indicate that an SELinux system
3987 may want to also include pam_selinux.so.
3988 * Re-enable ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, now that its build-dependencies
3989 are available.
3990 * Restore /usr/lib/sftp-server temporarily, as a symlink to
3991 /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server (closes: #312891).
3992 * Switch to debhelper compatibility level 3, since 2 is deprecated.
3993 * debconf template translations:
3994 - Update German (thanks, Jens Seidel; closes: #313949).

4007 and has not been the default since openssh 1:3.0.1p1-1. Users who need
4008 this should edit sshd_config instead (closes: #147212).
4009 * Since ssh-keysign isn't used by default (you need to set
4010 EnableSSHKeysign to "yes" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config), having a debconf
4011 question to ask whether it should be setuid is overkill, and the
4012 question text had got out of date anyway. Remove this question, ship
4013 ssh-keysign setuid in openssh-client.deb, and set a statoverride if the
4014 debconf question was previously set to false.

4026 - Normalise socket addresses returned by get_remote_hostname(), fixing

4028 * Take upstream's hint and disable the unsupported USE_POSIX_THREADS
4029 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
4030 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may
4031 provide two sets of binaries built with and without this option, since
4032 it seems I can't win.
4033 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
4034 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
4035 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).
4036 * openssh-server Suggests: rssh (closes: #233012).
4037 * Change libexecdir to /usr/lib/openssh, and fix up various alternatives
4038 and configuration files to match (closes: #87900, #151321).

4047 - Port-forwarding specifications now take optional bind addresses, and
4048 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
4049 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
4050 (closes: #87253, #192206).
4051 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
4052 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
4053 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
4054 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
4055 (closes: #287013).
4056 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
4057 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
4058 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
4059 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
4060 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
4061 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
4062 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
4063 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
4064 closes: #296487).
4065 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
4066 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
4067 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
4068 - Link with -lcrypt.
4069 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
4070 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
4071 satisfy build-dependencies.
4072 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
4073 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
4074 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
4075 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
4076 (closes: #307069).
4077 * debconf template translations:
4078 - Update Czech (thanks, Miroslav Kure; closes: #298744).

4187 common functionality; it didn't seem worth creating yet another package
4188 for this. openssh-client is priority standard, openssh-server optional.
4189 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
4190 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends
4191 on it.
4192 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
4193 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
4194 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
4195 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
4196 and ssh/user_environment_tell.
4197 * Add a heuristic to try to make sure the sshd_config upgrade to >= 3.7
4198 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
4199 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
4200 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing
4201 configurations, but the right approach is now to remove the
4202 openssh-server package if you don't want to run the server. Add a NEWS

4370
4371 * New upstream release (closes: #232281):
4372 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
4373 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
4374 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
4375 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
4376 syslog (closes: #171673).
4377 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
4378 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
4379 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
4380 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
4381 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
4382 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
4383 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
4384 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
4385 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
4386 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
4387 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
4388 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
4389 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
4390 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
4391 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
4392 ssh_config(5) for details.
4393 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
4394 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
4395 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
4396 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
4397 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.
4398 * Darren Tucker:
4399 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
4400 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.
4401 - Fix a non-security-critical segfault in PAM authentication.
4402 * Add debconf template translations:
4403 - Greek (thanks, Konstantinos Margaritis; closes: #232843).
4404 - Italian (thanks, Renato Gini; closes: #234777).

4574 and generally update the "/usr/bin/ssh not SUID" entry.
4575 * More README.Debian work:
4576 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
4577 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
4578 should probably be sorted by version somehow.
