9 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.6):
10 - SECURITY: sftp-server(8): In read-only mode, sftp-server was
11 incorrectly permitting creation of zero-length files. Reported by
12 Michal Zalewski.
13 - ssh(1): Delete SSH protocol version 1 support, associated
14 configuration options and documentation (LP: #1584321).
15 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove support for the hmac-ripemd160 MAC.
16 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove support for the arcfour, blowfish and CAST
17 ciphers.
18 - Refuse RSA keys <1024 bits in length and improve reporting for keys
19 that do not meet this requirement.
20 - ssh(1): Do not offer CBC ciphers by default.
21 - ssh(1): Add RemoteCommand option to specify a command in the ssh
22 config file instead of giving it on the client's command line. This
23 allows the configuration file to specify the command that will be
24 executed on the remote host.
25 - sshd(8): Add ExposeAuthInfo option that enables writing details of the
26 authentication methods used (including public keys where applicable)
27 to a file that is exposed via a $SSH_USER_AUTH environment variable in
28 the subsequent session.
29 - ssh(1): Add support for reverse dynamic forwarding. In this mode, ssh
30 will act as a SOCKS4/5 proxy and forward connections to destinations
31 requested by the remote SOCKS client. This mode is requested using
32 extended syntax for the -R and RemoteForward options and, because it
33 is implemented solely at the client, does not require the server be
34 updated to be supported.
35 - sshd(8): Allow LogLevel directive in sshd_config Match blocks.
36 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow inclusion of arbitrary string or flag certificate
37 extensions and critical options.
38 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to use a key held in ssh-agent as a CA
39 when signing certificates.
40 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Allow IPQoS=none in ssh/sshd to not set an explicit
41 ToS/DSCP value and just use the operating system default.
42 - ssh-add(1): Add -q option to make ssh-add quiet on success.
43 - ssh(1): Expand the StrictHostKeyChecking option with two new settings.
44 The first "accept-new" will automatically accept hitherto-unseen keys
45 but will refuse connections for changed or invalid hostkeys. This is
46 a safer subset of the current behaviour of StrictHostKeyChecking=no.
47 The second setting "off", is a synonym for the current behaviour of
48 StrictHostKeyChecking=no: accept new host keys, and continue
49 connection for hosts with incorrect hostkeys. A future release will
50 change the meaning of StrictHostKeyChecking=no to the behaviour of
51 "accept-new".
52 - ssh(1): Add SyslogFacility option to ssh(1) matching the equivalent
53 option in sshd(8).
54 - ssh(1): Use HostKeyAlias if specified instead of hostname for matching
55 host certificate principal names.
56 - sftp(1): Implement sorting for globbed ls.
57 - ssh(1): Add a user@host prefix to client's "Permission denied"
58 messages, useful in particular when using "stacked" connections (e.g.
59 ssh -J) where it's not clear which host is denying.
60 - ssh(1): Accept unknown EXT_INFO extension values that contain \0
61 characters. These are legal, but would previously cause fatal
62 connection errors if received.
63 - sftp(1): Print '?' instead of incorrect link count (that the protocol
64 doesn't provide) for remote listings.
65 - ssh(1): Return failure rather than fatal() for more cases during
66 session multiplexing negotiations. Causes the session to fall back to
67 a non-mux connection if they occur.
68 - ssh(1): Mention that the server may send debug messages to explain
69 public key authentication problems under some circumstances.
70 - Translate OpenSSL error codes to better report incorrect passphrase
71 errors when loading private keys.
72 - sshd(8): Adjust compatibility patterns for WinSCP to correctly
73 identify versions that implement only the legacy DH group exchange
74 scheme (closes: #877800).
75 - ssh(1): Print the "Killed by signal 1" message only at LogLevel
76 verbose so that it is not shown at the default level; prevents it from
77 appearing during ssh -J and equivalent ProxyCommand configs.
78 - ssh-keygen(1): When generating all hostkeys (ssh-keygen -A), clobber
79 existing keys if they exist but are zero length. Zero-length keys
80 could previously be made if ssh-keygen failed or was interrupted part
81 way through generating them.
82 - ssh-keyscan(1): Avoid double-close() on file descriptors.
83 - sshd(8): Avoid reliance on shared use of pointers shared between
84 monitor and child sshd processes.
85 - sshd_config(8): Document available AuthenticationMethods.
86 - ssh(1): Avoid truncation in some login prompts.
87 - ssh(1): Make "--" before the hostname terminate argument processing
88 after the hostname too (closes: #873201).
89 - ssh-keygen(1): Switch from aes256-cbc to aes256-ctr for encrypting
90 new-style private keys.
91 - ssh(1): Warn and do not attempt to use keys when the public and
92 private halves do not match.
93 - sftp(1): Don't print verbose error message when ssh disconnects from
94 under sftp.
95 - sshd(8): Fix keepalive scheduling problem: prevent activity on a
96 forwarded port from preventing the keepalive from being sent.
97 - sshd(8): When started without root privileges, don't require the
98 privilege separation user or path to exist.
99 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Correctness fix for channels implementation: accept
100 channel IDs greater than 0x7FFFFFFF.
101 - sshd(8): Expose list of completed authentication methods to PAM via
102 the SSH_AUTH_INFO_0 PAM environment variable.
103 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix several problems in the tun/tap forwarding code,
104 mostly to do with host/network byte order confusion.
105 - sshd(8): Avoid Linux seccomp violations on ppc64le over the socketcall
106 syscall.
107 * Build-depend on debhelper (>= 9.20160709~) rather than dh-systemd.
108 * Change priorities of ssh and ssh-krb5 binary packages to optional, since
109 "Priority: extra" is now deprecated.
110 * Use HTTPS form of copyright-format URL.
111 * Adjust "Running sshd from inittab" instructions in README.Debian to
112 recommend using service(8) rather than calling the init script directly.
113 * Policy version 4.1.0.
114 * Adjust "Per-connection sshd instances with systemd" instructions in
115 README.Debian to recommend using a drop-in file rather than copying and
116 modifying the ssh.socket unit file.

212
213 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.5):
214 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle
215 countermeasures that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH
216 7.3 to proceed. Note that the OpenSSH client disables CBC ciphers by
217 default, sshd offers them as lowest-preference options and will remove
218 them by default entirely in the next release.
219 - This release deprecates the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation option,
220 thereby making privilege separation mandatory (closes: #407754).
221 - The format of several log messages emitted by the packet code has
222 changed to include additional information about the user and their
223 authentication state. Software that monitors ssh/sshd logs may need
224 to account for these changes.
225 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
226 algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
227 - sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start messages
228 are sent out of sequence.
229 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in configuration
230 files.
231 - sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the server-sig-algs
232 extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were not being correctly
233 advertised.
234 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
235 known_hosts processing.
236 - ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
237 file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
238 - ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option, accept
239 RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype. Previously,
240 ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-* methods were
241 enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa method.
242 - ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file lines.
243 - Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat and
244 FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor leaks in
245 error paths.
246 - ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
247 "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
248 - ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
249 line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat square
250 bracket characters specially.
251 - Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol 1
252 support from the server, including the server banner string being
253 incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing error
254 messages from ssh-keyscan, and a segfault in sshd if protocol v.1 was
255 enabled for the client and sshd_config contained references to legacy
256 keys.
257 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
258 - sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server returns
259 zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
260 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
261 encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
262 - ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
263 printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
264 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
265 feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
266 - sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
267 AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
268 matched early.
269 - ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
270 cancellation.
271 - ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files can't
272 be opened.
273 - sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token in
274 AuthorizedKeysCommand.
275 - sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM.
276 - ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and common
277 32-bit compatibility library directories.
278 - sftp-client(1): Fix non-exploitable integer overflow in SSH2_FXP_NAME
279 response handling.
280 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression in 7.4 of deleting PKCS#11-hosted keys.
281 It was not possible to delete them except by specifying their full
282 physical path.
283 - sshd(8): Avoid sandbox errors for Linux S390 systems using an ICA
284 crypto coprocessor.
285 - sshd(8): Fix non-exploitable weakness in seccomp-bpf sandbox arg
286 inspection.
287 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sftp(1): Fix output truncation for various that
288 contain non-printable characters where the codeset in use is ASCII.

387openssh (1:7.4p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
388
389 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
390 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
391 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
392 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
393 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
394 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
395 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
396 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
397 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
398 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
399 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
400 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
401 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
402 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
403 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
404 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
405 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
406 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
407 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
408 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
409 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
410 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
411 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
412 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
413 (closes: #848714).
414 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
415 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
416 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
417 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
418 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
419 years) (closes: #848715).
420 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
421 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
422 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
423 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
424 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
425 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
426 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
427 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
428 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
429 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
430 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
431 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
432 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
433 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
434 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
435 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
436 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
437 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
438 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
439 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
440 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
441 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
442 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
443 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
444 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
445 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
446 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
447 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
448 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
449 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
450 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
451 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
452 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
453 way of restricting an account.
454 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
455 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
456 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
457 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
458 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
459 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
460 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
461 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
462 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
463 configuration error.
464 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
465 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
466 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
467 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
468 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
469 being offered.
470 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
471 that have no corresponding bare public key.
472 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
473 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
474 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
475 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
476 messages.
477 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
478 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
479 - sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before suspending
480 sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode correctly if
481 suspended during a password prompt.
482 - ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
483 prompt (LP: #1646813).
484 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-info
485 messages.
486 - sshd(8): Fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-sequence
487 NEWKEYS message.
488 - sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in the
489 server-sig-algs extension.
490 - sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
491 - sshd(8): More strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
492 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
493 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
494 configuration.
495 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
496 configuration examples.
497 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
498 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that
499 locale's unique handling of the letters 'i' and 'I' (LP: #1638338).
500 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
501 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
502 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
503 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
504 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
505 generated on new installations.
506 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
507 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
508 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
509 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
510 #419574, #848089):
511 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
512 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
513 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
514 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
515 I've missed some.
516 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
517 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
518 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
519 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
520 than "yes", per upstream.
521 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
522 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to
523 300 by default if BatchMode is set is Debian-specific (closes: #765630).
524 * Build gnome-ssh-askpass with GTK+ 3 (LP: #801187).
525 * When running regression tests under autopkgtest, use a non-root user
526 with passwordless sudo.

568
569 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
570 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
571 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
572 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
573 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
574 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
575 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
576 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
577 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
578 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
579 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
580 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
581 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
582 though no such leakage has been observed.
583 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
584 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
585 "jump hosts".
586 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
587 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.
588 - ssh(1): Allow ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings to be
589 optionally overridden when using ssh -W.
590 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Implement support for the IUTF8 terminal mode as per
591 draft-sgtatham-secsh-iutf8-00 (closes: #337041, LP: #394570).
592 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for additional fixed Diffie-Hellman 2K,
593 4K and 8K groups from draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2-03.
594 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sshd(8): Support SHA256 and SHA512 RSA
595 signatures in certificates.
596 - ssh(1): Add an Include directive for ssh_config(5) files (closes:
597 #536031).
598 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
599 from the server.
600 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
601 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
602 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
603 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
604 multiple authentication.
605 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
606 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
607 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
608 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
609 are enabled.
610 - sshd(8): Remove fallback from moduli to obsolete "primes" file that
611 was deprecated in 2001 (LP: #1528251).
612 - sshd_config(5): Correct description of UseDNS: it affects ssh hostname
613 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
614 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
615 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
616 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf
617 sandbox.
618 - scp(1): Respect the local user's LC_CTYPE locale (closes: #396295).
619 - Take character display widths into account for the progressmeter
620 (closes: #407088).

723
724 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
725 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
726 default in ssh:
727 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
728 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
729 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
730 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
731 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
732 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
733 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
734 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
735 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
736 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
737 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
738 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
739 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
740 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
741 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
742 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
743 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
744 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
745 'confirm').
746 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
747 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
748 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
749 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
750 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
751 we might implement in the future.
752 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
753 certificates.
754 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
755 supported formats (closes: #811125).
756 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
757 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
758 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
759 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
760 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
761 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
762 default.
763 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
764 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
765 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
766 certificates instead of plain keys.
767 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
768 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
769 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
770 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate
771 recursive uploads (regression in OpenSSH 6.8; LP: #1553378).
772 * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs, and link to cgit rather than gitweb.
773 * Restore slogin symlinks for compatibility, although they were removed
774 upstream.

855
856 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.0, closes:
857 #785190):
858 - Support for the legacy SSH version 1 protocol is disabled by default
859 at compile time.
860 - Support for the 1024-bit diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 key exchange is
861 disabled by default at run-time. It may be re-enabled using the
862 instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
863 - Support for ssh-dss, ssh-dss-cert-* host and user keys is disabled by
864 default at run-time. These may be re-enabled using the instructions
865 at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
866 - Support for the legacy v00 cert format has been removed.
867 - The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has changed
868 from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
869 - PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
870 interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
871 hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
872 keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those were
873 enabled).
874 - ssh_config(5): Add PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes option to control which
875 public key types are available for user authentication.
876 - sshd_config(5): Add HostKeyAlgorithms option to control which public
877 key types are offered for host authentications.
878 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Extend Ciphers, MACs, KexAlgorithms,
879 HostKeyAlgorithms, PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and HostbasedKeyTypes
880 options to allow appending to the default set of algorithms instead of
881 replacing it. Options may now be prefixed with a '+' to append to the
882 default, e.g. "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss".
883 - sshd_config(5): PermitRootLogin now accepts an argument of
884 'prohibit-password' as a less-ambiguous synonym of 'without-
885 password'.
886 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatability workarounds for Cisco and more
887 PuTTY versions.
888 - Fix some omissions and errors in the PROTOCOL and PROTOCOL.mux
889 documentation relating to Unix domain socket forwarding.
890 - ssh(1): Improve the ssh(1) manual page to include a better description
891 of Unix domain socket forwarding (closes: #779068).
892 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Skip uninitialised PKCS#11 slots, fixing
893 failures to load keys when they are present.
894 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Do not ignore PKCS#11 hosted keys that wth empty
895 CKA_ID.
896 - sshd(8): Clarify documentation for UseDNS option.
897 - Check realpath(3) behaviour matches what sftp-server requires and use
898 a replacement if necessary.
899 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.1):
900 - sshd(8): OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in PermitRootLogin=
901 prohibit-password/without-password that could, depending on
902 compile-time configuration, permit password authentication to root
903 while preventing other forms of authentication. This problem was
904 reported by Mantas Mikulenas.
905 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.
906 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
907 - Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
908 memory, etc) in ssh(1) and ssh-keygen(1). Reported by Mateusz
909 Kocielski.
910 * Change "PermitRootLogin without-password" to the new preferred spelling
911 of "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password" in sshd_config, and update
912 documentation to reflect the new upstream default.
913 * Enable conch interoperability tests under autopkgtest.

942
943 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
944 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
945 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
946 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
947 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
948 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
949 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
950 from hex to base64.
951 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
952 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
953 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
954 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
955 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
956 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
957 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
958 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
959 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
960 option (default off).
961 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
962 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
963 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
964 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
965 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
966 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
967 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
968 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
969 authentication.
970 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
971 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
972 decryption.
973 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
974 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
975 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
976 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
977 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
978 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
979 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
980 all.
981 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
982 against MaxAuthTries.
983 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
984 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
985 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
986 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
987 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
988 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
989 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
990 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
991 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
992 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against
993 servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol (closes: #241119).
994 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were
995 being lost as comment fields (closes: #787776).
996 - ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse
997 phase to be applied (they were being ignored; closes: #774369).
998 - ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the
999 second pass through the config files always run when host name
1000 canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes)
1001 - ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection
1002 multiplexing is in use.
1003 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH
1004 formats.
1005 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use.
1006 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
1007 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
1008 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
1009 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
1010 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
1011 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
1012 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
1013 by Jann Horn.
1014 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
1015 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
1016 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
1017 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
1018 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
1019 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
1020 (closes: #740494).
1021 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
1022 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
1023 file.
1024 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
1025 devices.
1026 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
1027 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
1028 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
1029 enabling debug mode.
1030 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
1031 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
1032 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
1033 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
1034 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
1035 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).
1036 - ssh(1): Fix out-of-bound read in EscapeChar configuration option
1037 parsing.
1038 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
1039 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
1040 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
1041 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from
1042 the list of active forwards.
1043 - sshd(8): Make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options
1044 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
1045 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
1046 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
1047 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
1048 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
1049 options to appear in any order.
1050 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
1051 and ForceCommand.
1052 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
1053 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
1054 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
1055 forwarding requested.
1056 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
1057 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
1058 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
1059 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
1060 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
1061 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
1062 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
1063 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
1064 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
1065 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
1066 host key fingerprints.
1067 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
1068 language consistent.
1069 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
1070 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
1071 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
1072 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
1073 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
1074 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
1075 to fix security issues:
1076 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
1077 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
1078 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
1079 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
1080 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
1081 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
1082 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
1083 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
1084 Moritz Jodeit.
1085 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
1086 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
1087 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
1088 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
1089 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
1090 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
1091 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
1092 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
1093 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
1094 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
1095 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
1096 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
1097 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
1098 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
1099 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
1100 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

1157
1158 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
1159 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
1160 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
1161 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
1162 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
1163 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
1164 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
1165 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
1166 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
1167 key types.
1168 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
1169 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
1170 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
1171 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
1172 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
1173 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
1174 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
1175 option.
1176 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
1177 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
1178 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
1179 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
1180 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
1181 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
1182 authentication success / failure messages.
1183 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
1184 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
1185 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
1186 #734553).
1187 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
1188 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
1189 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
1190 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
1191 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
1192 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
1193 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
1194 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
1195 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
1196 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
1197 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
1198 field.
1199 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
1200 simply a new enough dpkg.
1201 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
1202 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
1203 field.
1204 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
1205 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

1360 * Bump guard version for sysvinit->systemd transition to 1:6.5p1-3; we may
1361 have got it wrong before, and it's fairly harmless to repeat it.
1362 * Remove tests for whether /dev/null is a character device from the

1364 confusing failure mode in daemon(), but with modern init systems we use
1365 the -D option to suppress daemonisation anyway.

1391 LP: #1275068):
1392 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
1393 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
1394 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
1395 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking
1396 host certificate names (closes: #115286).
1397 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
1398 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
1399 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
1400 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
1401 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
1402 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
1403 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See
1404 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full

1406 * Add OpenPGP signature checking configuration to watch file (thanks,

1410 * Incorporate default path changes from shadow 1:4.0.18.1-8, removing
1411 /usr/bin/X11 (closes: #644521).
1412 * Generate ED25519 host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish
1413 to add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
1414 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run

1442 + ssh(1): do not fatally exit when attempting to cleanup multiplexing-
1443 created channels that are incompletely opened (closes: #651357).

1498
1499 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
1500 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
1501 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
1502 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
1503 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
1504 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
1505 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
1506 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
1507 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
1508 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
1509 the packaging.
1510 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
1511 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
1512 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
1513 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
1514 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
1515 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
1516 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
1517 openssh-server.postinst.
1518 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
1519 via dh_installdeb.
1520 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
1521 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
1522 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
1523 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
1524 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
1525 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
1526 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
1527 chroot.
1528 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
1529 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
1530 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
1531 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.
1532 * This removes the last of our uses of debconf (closes: #221531).

1708 - Introduce sandboxing of the pre-auth privsep child using an optional

1710 mandatory restrictions on the syscalls the privsep child can perform.

1715 maintain /dev/log inside the chroot (closes: #75043, #429243,

1720 separated by whitespace (closes: #76312). The authorized_keys2
1721 fallback is deprecated but documented (closes: #560156).

1806 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
1807 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
1808 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
1809 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
1810 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
1811 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
1812 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
1813 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
1814 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
1815 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
1816 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
1817 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
1818 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
1819 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
1820 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
1821 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
1822 (closes: #594687).
1823 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
1824 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
1825 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
1826 it to be stripped off).
1827 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
1828 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
1829 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
1830 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
1831 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
1832 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
1833 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
1834 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
1835 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
1836 * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this

1954
1955 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
1956 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
1957 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
1958 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
1959 or on the command-line.
1960 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
1961 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
1962 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
1963 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
1964 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
1965 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
1966 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
1967 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
1968 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
1969 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
1970 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
1971 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
1972 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
1973 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
1974 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
1975 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
1976 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
1977 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
1978 (closes: #270399, #428082).
1979 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
1980 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
1981 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
1982 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
1983
1984 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
1985 patches apply with offsets.
1986 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
1987 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
1988 around with uudecode.
1989 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
1990 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
1991 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
1992 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
1993 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
1994 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
1995 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
1996 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
1997 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
1998 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
1999 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
2000 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
2001 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
2002 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
2003 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
2004 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
2005 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
2006 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
2007 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
2008 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
2009 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
2010 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
2011 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
2012 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
2013 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
2014 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
2015 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
2016 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
2017 * Policy version 3.8.4:
2018 - Add a Homepage field.

2052 * Backport from upstream:
2053 - Do not fall back to adding keys without constraints (ssh-add -c / -t
2054 ...) when the agent refuses the constrained add request. This was a
2055 useful migration measure back in 2002 when constraints were new, but
2056 just adds risk now (LP: #209447).
2057 * Drop change from 1:3.8p1-3 to avoid setresuid() and setresgid() system
2058 calls. This only applied to Linux 2.2, which it's no longer feasible to
2059 run anyway (see 1:5.2p1-2 changelog).

2066 * Backport from upstream:
2067 - After sshd receives a SIGHUP, ignore subsequent HUPs while sshd
2068 re-execs itself. Prevents two HUPs in quick succession from resulting
2069 in sshd dying (LP: #497781).
2070 - Output a debug if we can't open an existing keyfile (LP: #505301).
2071 * Use host compiler for ssh-askpass-gnome when cross-compiling.
2072 * Don't run tests when cross-compiling.
2073 * Drop change from 1:3.6.1p2-5 to disable cmsg_type check for file
2074 descriptor passing when running on Linux 2.0. The previous stable
2075 release of Debian dropped support for Linux 2.4, let alone 2.0, so this

2087 * New upstream release (closes: #536182). Yes, I know 5.3p1 has been out
2088 for a while, but there's no GSSAPI patch available for it yet.
2089 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
2090 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
2091 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
2092 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
2093 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
2094 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
2095 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
2096 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
2097 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
2098 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
2099 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
2100 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the
2101 internal-sftp server (closes: #524423, LP: #362511).
2102 - Add AllowAgentForwarding to available Match keywords list (closes:
2103 #540623).
2104 - Make ssh(1) send the correct channel number for
2105 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
2106 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
2107 openssh-5.1.
2108 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
2109 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
2110 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).
2111 - Disable nonfunctional ssh(1) ~C escape handler in multiplex slave
2112 connections (closes: #507541).
2113 - Fix "whitepsace" typo in ssh_config(5) (closes: #514313, LP: #303835).
2114 * Update to GSSAPI patch from
2115 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.2p1-gsskex-all-20090726.patch,
2116 including cascading credentials support (LP: #416958).
2117 * Use x11.pc when compiling/linking gnome-ssh-askpass2 (closes: #555951).
2118 * Moved to bzr.debian.org; add Vcs-Bzr and Vcs-Browser control fields.

2128 * Update OpenSSH FAQ to revision 1.110.
2129 * Remove ssh/new_config, only needed for direct upgrades from potato which
2130 are no longer particularly feasible anyway (closes: #420682).
2131 * Cope with insserv reordering of init script links.
2132 * Remove init script stop link in rc1, as killprocs handles it already.
2133 * Adjust short descriptions to avoid relying on previous experience with
2134 rsh, based on suggestions from Reuben Thomas (closes: #512198).
2135 * Remove manual page references to login.conf, which aren't applicable on
2136 non-BSD systems (closes: #154434).
2137 * Remove/adjust manual page references to BSD-specific /etc/rc (closes:

2141 configuration file (closes: #415008, although unfortunately this will
2142 only be conveniently visible on new installations).
2143 * Include URL to OpenBSD's ssl(8) in ssh(1), since I don't see a better

2195 - packet_disconnect() on padding error, too. Should reduce the success

2197 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there
2198 corresponds to sshd before running '/etc/init.d/ssh reload' from if-up
2199 script; SIGHUP is racy if called at boot before sshd has a chance to
2200 install its signal handler, but fortunately the pid file is written
2201 after that which lets us avoid the race (closes: #502444).
2202 * While the above is a valuable sanity-check, it turns out that it doesn't
2203 really fix the bug (thanks to Kevin Price for testing), so for the

2244
2245 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
2246 backported to 4.7p1:
2247 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
2248 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
2249 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
2250 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
2251 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
2252 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
2253 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
2254 inside the chroot environment.
2255 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
2256 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
2257 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
2258 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
2259 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
2260 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
2261 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
2262 also allow Protocol 1.
2263 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
2264 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
2265 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
2266 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
2267 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
2268 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
2269 embedded backslash escape sequences.
2270 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
2271 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
2272 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
2273 /bin/sh.
2274 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
2275 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
2276 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
2277 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
2278 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
2279 connections via a ProxyCommand.
2280 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
2281 #140828).
2282 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
2283 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
2284 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
2285 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
2286 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
2287 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
2288 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
2289 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
2290 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
2291 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
2292 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
2293 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
2294 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
2295 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
2296 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
2297 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
2298 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
2299 (LP: #119295).
2300 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
2301 chroot (LP: #237557).
2302 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
2303 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
2304 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
2305 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
2306 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
2307 rejection of changed host keys.
2308 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
2309 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
2310 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
2311 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
2312 matching.
2313 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
2314 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
2315 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
2316 source address and hostname) to test the application of
2317 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
2318 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
2319 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
2320 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
2321 connections only).
2322 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
2323 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
2324 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
2325 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
2326 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
2327 the server).
2328 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
2329 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
2330 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
2331 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
2332 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
2333 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
2334 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
2335 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
2336 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
2337 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
2338 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
2339 hijacked.
2340 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
2341 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
2342 fingerprint.
2343 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
2344 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
2345 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
2346 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
2347 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
2348 forwarder.
2349 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
2350 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
2351 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
2352 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
2353 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
2354 address and give up if that failed.
2355 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
2356 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
2357 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
2358 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
2359 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
2360 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
2361 from 768 to 1024 bits.
2362 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
2363 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
2364 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
2365 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
2366 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
2367 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
2368 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
2369 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
2370 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
2371 blocks.
2372 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
2373 that are available to a primary connection.
2374 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
2375 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
2376 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
2377 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
2378 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
2379 server runs out of file descriptors).
2380 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
2381 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
2382 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
2383 platforms.
2384 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
2385 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
2386 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
2387 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
2388 targets).
2389 * Merge from Ubuntu:

2627 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
2628 (closes: #444738).
2629 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
2630 installations are unchanged.
2631 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
2632 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
2633 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
2634 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
2635 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
2636 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
2637 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
2638 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
2639 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
2640 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
2641 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
2642 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
2643 without passing the full exit status.
2644 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
2645 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
2646 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
2647 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
2648 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
2649 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
2650 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
2651 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
2652 mechanisms.
2653 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
2654 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
2655 into the client.
2656 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
2657 have been established.
2658 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
2659 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
2660 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
2661 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
2662 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed
2663 (closes: #405041).

2777 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
2778 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.4):
2779 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
2780 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
2781 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
2782 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
2783 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
2784 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
2785 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
2786 be added in future releases.
2787 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
2788 final hash of SHA256.
2789 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
2790 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
2791 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
2792 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
2793 option.
2794 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
2795 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
2796 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
2797 establish.
2798 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
2799 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
2800 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
2801 (closes: #50612).
2802 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
2803 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
2804 established.
2805 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
2806 specification of command-line arguments.
2807 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
2808 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
2809 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
2810 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
2811 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
2812 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
2813 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
2814 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
2815 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
2816 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
2817 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
2818 liberal (closes: #103677).
2819 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
2820 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
2821 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
2822 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
2823 in sshd_config.
2824 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
2825 progress meter (closes: #257524).
2826 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
2827 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
2828 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2829 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
2830 install ChangeLog.gssapi.

2832 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
2833 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).
2834 * Move init script start links to S16, move rc1 stop link to K84, and
2835 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
2836 closes: #122188).
2837 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
2838 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
2839 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
2840 * Merge from Ubuntu:
2841 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
2842 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
2843 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
2844 the default path.
2845 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
2846 openssh-client dependency.

3047 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
3048 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
3049 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
3050 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
3051 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
3052 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
3053 scp (closes: #349645).
3054 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
3055 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
3056 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
3057 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
3058 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
3059 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3060 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
3061 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
3062 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
3063 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
3064 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
3065 background at the time of session exit.
3066 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
3067 without arguments (closes: #114894).

3069 Kerberos authentication.

3071 (closes: #259865).
3072 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
3073 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
3074 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
3075 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:

3077 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
3078 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
3079 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
3080 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
3081 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
3082 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
3083 - Many manual page improvements.
3084 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
3085 possible crashes.

3090 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
3091 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.

3179 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh.html (thanks, Stephen
3180 Frost).
3181 - Build-depend on libkrb5-dev and configure --with-kerberos5=/usr.
3182 - openssh-client and openssh-server replace ssh-krb5.
3183 - Update commented-out Kerberos/GSSAPI options in default sshd_config.

3185 gss-serv-krb5.c.

3191 * New upstream release.
3192 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2797): Fix a bug introduced in OpenSSH 4.0 that
3193 caused GatewayPorts to be incorrectly activated for dynamic ("-D")
3194 port forwardings when no listen address was explicitly specified
3195 (closes: #326065).
3196 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2798): Fix improper delegation of GSSAPI
3197 credentials. This code is only built in openssh-krb5, not openssh, but
3198 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
3199 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
3200 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
3201 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
3202 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable
3203 compression on the client or set "Compression yes" (losing this
3204 security benefit) on the server.
3205 - Increase the default size of new RSA/DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3206 from 1024 to 2048 bits (closes: #181162).
3207 - Many bugfixes and improvements to connection multiplexing.
3208 - Don't pretend to accept $HOME (closes: #208648).
3209 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
3210 * openssh-client and openssh-server conflict with pre-split ssh to avoid
3211 problems when ssh is left un-upgraded (closes: #324695).
3212 * Set X11Forwarding to yes in the default sshd_config (new installs only).
3213 At least when X11UseLocalhost is turned on, which is the default, the
3214 security risks of using X11 forwarding are risks to the client, not to
3215 the server (closes: #320104).

3262 - Added SELinux capability, and turned it on be default. Added
3263 restorecon calls in preinst and postinst (should not matter if the
3264 machine is not SELinux aware). By and large, the changes made should
3265 have no effect unless the rules file calls --with-selinux; and even
3266 then there should be no performance hit for machines not actively
3267 running SELinux.
3268 - Modified the preinst and postinst to call restorecon to set the
3269 security context for the generated public key files.
3270 - Added a comment to /etc/pam.d/ssh to indicate that an SELinux system
3271 may want to also include pam_selinux.so.
3272 * Re-enable ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, now that its build-dependencies
3273 are available.
3274 * Restore /usr/lib/sftp-server temporarily, as a symlink to
3275 /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server (closes: #312891).

3292 this should edit sshd_config instead (closes: #147212).
3293 * Since ssh-keysign isn't used by default (you need to set
3294 EnableSSHKeysign to "yes" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config), having a debconf
3295 question to ask whether it should be setuid is overkill, and the

3297 ssh-keysign setuid in openssh-client.deb, and set a statoverride if the
3298 debconf question was previously set to false.

3313 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
3314 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may
3315 provide two sets of binaries built with and without this option, since
3316 it seems I can't win.
3317 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
3318 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
3319 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).
3320 * openssh-server Suggests: rssh (closes: #233012).

3331 - Port-forwarding specifications now take optional bind addresses, and
3332 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
3333 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
3334 (closes: #87253, #192206).
3335 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
3336 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
3337 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
3338 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
3339 (closes: #287013).
3340 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
3341 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
3342 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
3343 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
3344 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
3345 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
3346 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
3347 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
3348 closes: #296487).
3349 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
3350 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
3351 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
3352 - Link with -lcrypt.
3353 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
3354 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
3355 satisfy build-dependencies.
3356 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
3357 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
3358 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
3359 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
3360 (closes: #307069).

3473 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
3474 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends

3476 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
3477 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
3478 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
3479 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
3480 and ssh/user_environment_tell.

3482 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
3483 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
3484 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing

3655 * New upstream release (closes: #232281):
3656 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
3657 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
3658 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
3659 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
3660 syslog (closes: #171673).
3661 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
3662 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
3663 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
3664 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
3665 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
3666 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
3667 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
3668 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
3669 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
3670 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
3671 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
3672 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
3673 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
3674 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
3675 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
3676 ssh_config(5) for details.
3677 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
3678 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
3679 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
3680 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
3681 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.

3683 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
3684 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.

3859 * More README.Debian work:
3860 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
3861 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
3862 should probably be sorted by version somehow.

3938 * Happy new year!
3939 * Use getent rather than id to find out whether the sshd user exists
3940 (closes: #150974).
3941 * Remove some duplication from the postinst's ssh-keysign setuid code.
3942 * Replace db_text with db_input throughout debian/config. (db_text has
3943 been a compatibility wrapper since debconf 0.1.5.)
3944 * Warn about PermitUserEnvironment on upgrade (closes: #167895).
3945 * Use 'make install-nokeys', and disable unused debhelper commands,
3946 thereby forward-porting the last pieces of Zack Weinberg's patch
3947 (closes: #68341).
3948 * Move the man page for gnome-ssh-askpass from the ssh package to
3949 ssh-askpass-gnome (closes: #174449).
3950 * Build with -DLOGIN_NO_ENDOPT, since Debian's /bin/login doesn't accept
3951 '--' to terminate the list of options (closes: #171554).
3952 * Add Jonathan Amery's ssh-argv0 script (closes: #111341).
3953 * Update Danish debconf template (thanks, Morten Brix Pedersen;
3954 closes: #174757).
3955 * Document setgid ssh-agent's effect on certain environment variables in
3956 README.Debian (closes: #167974).
3957 * Document interoperability problems between scp and ssh.com's server in
3958 README.Debian, and suggest some workarounds (closes: #174662).

3971
3972 * New upstream release.
3973 - Fixes typo in ssh-add usage (closes: #152239).
3974 - Fixes 'PermitRootLogin forced-commands-only' (closes: #166184).
3975 - ~/.ssh/environment and environment= options in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
3976 are deprecated for security reasons and will eventually go away. For
3977 now they can be re-enabled by setting 'PermitUserEnvironment yes' in
3978 sshd_config.
3979 - ssh-agent is installed setgid to prevent ptrace() attacks. The group
3980 actually doesn't matter, as it drops privileges immediately, but to
3981 avoid confusion the postinst creates a new 'ssh' group for it.
3982 * Obsolete patches:
3983 - Solar Designer's privsep+compression patch for Linux 2.2 (see
3984 1:3.3p1-0.0woody1).
3985 - Hostbased auth ssh-keysign backport (see 1:3.4p1-4).
3986
3987 * Remove duplicated phrase in ssh_config(5) (closes: #152404).
3988 * Source the debconf confmodule at the top of the postrm rather than at
3989 the bottom, to avoid making future non-idempotency problems worse (see
3990 #151035).
3991 * Debconf templates:
3992 - Add Polish (thanks, Grzegorz Kusnierz).
3993 - Update French (thanks, Denis Barbier; closes: #132509).
3994 - Update Spanish (thanks, Carlos Valdivia Yagüe; closes: #164716).
3995 * Write a man page for gnome-ssh-askpass, and link it to ssh-askpass.1 if
3996 this is the selected ssh-askpass alternative (closes: #67775).

4004 #148951 and http://www.average.org/freecrypto/).
4005 * Drop ssh-askpass-gnome's priority to optional, per the override file.
4006 * Drop the PAM special case for hurd-i386 (closes: #99157).
4007 * s/dile/idle/ in ssh_config(5) (closes: #118331).
4008 * Note in README.Debian that you need xauth from xbase-clients on the
4009 server for X11 forwarding (closes: #140269).
4010 * Use correct path to upstream README in copyright file (closes: #146037).

4024 * Fix some debconf template typos (closes: #160358).

4769 * Integrated man page addition for PrintLastLog.
4770 This bug was filed on "openssh", and I ended up
4771 creating my own patch for this (closes: #59054)
4772 * Improved error message when ssh_exchange_identification
4773 gets EOF (closes: #58904)
4774 * Fixed typo (your -> you're) in debian/preinst.
4775 * Added else-clauses to config to make this upgradepath possible:
4776 oldssh -> openssh preinst fails due to upgrade_to_openssh=false
4777 -> ssh-nonfree -> openssh. Without these, debconf remembered
4778 the old answer, config didn't force asking it, and preinst always
4779 aborted (closes: #56596, #57782)
4780 * Moved setting upgrade_to_openssh isdefault flag to the place
4781 where preinst would abort. This means no double question to most
4782 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
4783 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
4784 use_old_init_script, as the situation is a bit different, and
4785 less common (closes: #54010, #56224)
4786 * Check for existance of ssh-keygen before attempting to use it in
4787 preinst, added warning for non-existant ssh-keygen in config. This
4788 happens when the old ssh is removed (say, due to ssh-nonfree getting
4789 installed).
