75openssh (1:7.5p1-1) experimental; urgency=medium
76
77 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.5):
78 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle
79 countermeasures that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH
80 7.3 to proceed. Note that the OpenSSH client disables CBC ciphers by
81 default, sshd offers them as lowest-preference options and will remove
82 them by default entirely in the next release.
83 - This release deprecates the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation option,
84 thereby making privilege separation mandatory (closes: #407754).
85 - The format of several log messages emitted by the packet code has
86 changed to include additional information about the user and their
87 authentication state. Software that monitors ssh/sshd logs may need
88 to account for these changes.
89 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
90 algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
91 - sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start messages
92 are sent out of sequence.
93 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in configuration
94 files.
95 - sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the server-sig-algs
96 extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were not being correctly
97 advertised.
98 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
99 known_hosts processing.
100 - ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
101 file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
102 - ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option, accept
103 RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype. Previously,
104 ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-* methods were
105 enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa method.
106 - ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file lines.
107 - Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat and
108 FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor leaks in
109 error paths.
110 - ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
111 "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
112 - ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
113 line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat square
114 bracket characters specially.
115 - Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol 1
116 support from the server, including the server banner string being
117 incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing error
118 messages from ssh-keyscan, and a segfault in sshd if protocol v.1 was
119 enabled for the client and sshd_config contained references to legacy
120 keys.
121 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
122 - sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server returns
123 zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
124 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
125 encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
126 - ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
127 printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
128 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
129 feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
130 - sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
131 AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
132 matched early.
133 - ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
134 cancellation.
135 - ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files can't
136 be opened.
137 - sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token in
138 AuthorizedKeysCommand.
139 - sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM.
140 - ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and common
141 32-bit compatibility library directories.
142 - sftp-client(1): Fix non-exploitable integer overflow in SSH2_FXP_NAME
143 response handling.
144 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression in 7.4 of deleting PKCS#11-hosted keys.
145 It was not possible to delete them except by specifying their full
146 physical path.
147 - sshd(8): Avoid sandbox errors for Linux S390 systems using an ICA
148 crypto coprocessor.
149 - sshd(8): Fix non-exploitable weakness in seccomp-bpf sandbox arg
150 inspection.
151 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sftp(1): Fix output truncation for various that
152 contain non-printable characters where the codeset in use is ASCII.

251openssh (1:7.4p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
252
253 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
254 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
255 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
256 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
257 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
258 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
259 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
260 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
261 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
262 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
263 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
264 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
265 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
266 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
267 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
268 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
269 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
270 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
271 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
272 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
273 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
274 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
275 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
276 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
277 (closes: #848714).
278 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
279 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
280 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
281 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
282 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
283 years) (closes: #848715).
284 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
285 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
286 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
287 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
288 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
289 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
290 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
291 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
292 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
293 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
294 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
295 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
296 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
297 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
298 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
299 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
300 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
301 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
302 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
303 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
304 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
305 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
306 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
307 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
308 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
309 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
310 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
311 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
312 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
313 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
314 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
315 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
316 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
317 way of restricting an account.
318 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
319 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
320 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
321 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
322 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
323 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
324 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
325 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
326 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
327 configuration error.
328 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
329 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
330 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
331 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
332 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
333 being offered.
334 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
335 that have no corresponding bare public key.
336 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
337 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
338 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
339 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
340 messages.
341 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
342 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
343 - sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before suspending
344 sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode correctly if
345 suspended during a password prompt.
346 - ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
347 prompt (LP: #1646813).
348 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-info
349 messages.
350 - sshd(8): Fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-sequence
351 NEWKEYS message.
352 - sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in the
353 server-sig-algs extension.
354 - sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
355 - sshd(8): More strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
356 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
357 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
358 configuration.
359 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
360 configuration examples.
361 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
362 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that
363 locale's unique handling of the letters 'i' and 'I' (LP: #1638338).
364 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
365 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
366 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
367 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
368 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
369 generated on new installations.
370 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
371 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
372 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
373 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
374 #419574, #848089):
375 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
376 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
377 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
378 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
379 I've missed some.
380 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
381 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
382 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
383 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
384 than "yes", per upstream.
385 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
386 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to
387 300 by default if BatchMode is set is Debian-specific (closes: #765630).
388 * Build gnome-ssh-askpass with GTK+ 3 (LP: #801187).
389 * When running regression tests under autopkgtest, use a non-root user
390 with passwordless sudo.

432
433 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
434 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
435 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
436 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
437 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
438 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
439 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
440 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
441 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
442 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
443 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
444 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
445 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
446 though no such leakage has been observed.
447 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
448 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
449 "jump hosts".
450 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
451 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.
452 - ssh(1): Allow ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings to be
453 optionally overridden when using ssh -W.
454 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Implement support for the IUTF8 terminal mode as per
455 draft-sgtatham-secsh-iutf8-00 (closes: #337041, LP: #394570).
456 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for additional fixed Diffie-Hellman 2K,
457 4K and 8K groups from draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2-03.
458 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sshd(8): Support SHA256 and SHA512 RSA
459 signatures in certificates.
460 - ssh(1): Add an Include directive for ssh_config(5) files (closes:
461 #536031).
462 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
463 from the server.
464 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
465 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
466 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
467 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
468 multiple authentication.
469 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
470 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
471 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
472 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
473 are enabled.
474 - sshd(8): Remove fallback from moduli to obsolete "primes" file that
475 was deprecated in 2001 (LP: #1528251).
476 - sshd_config(5): Correct description of UseDNS: it affects ssh hostname
477 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
478 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
479 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
480 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf
481 sandbox.
482 - scp(1): Respect the local user's LC_CTYPE locale (closes: #396295).
483 - Take character display widths into account for the progressmeter
484 (closes: #407088).

514 * Recommend libpam-systemd from openssh-server. It's a much better
515 solution than the above for systemd users, but I'm wary of depending on
516 it in case I cause an assortment of exciting dependency problems on
517 upgrade for non-systemd users.

587
588 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
589 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
590 default in ssh:
591 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
592 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
593 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
594 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
595 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
596 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
597 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
598 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
599 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
600 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
601 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
602 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
603 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
604 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
605 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
606 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
607 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
608 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
609 'confirm').
610 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
611 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
612 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
613 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
614 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
615 we might implement in the future.
616 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
617 certificates.
618 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
619 supported formats (closes: #811125).
620 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
621 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
622 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
623 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
624 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
625 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
626 default.
627 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
628 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
629 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
630 certificates instead of plain keys.
631 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
632 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
633 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
634 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate
635 recursive uploads (regression in OpenSSH 6.8; LP: #1553378).
636 * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs, and link to cgit rather than gitweb.
637 * Restore slogin symlinks for compatibility, although they were removed
638 upstream.

722 - Support for the legacy SSH version 1 protocol is disabled by default
723 at compile time.
724 - Support for the 1024-bit diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 key exchange is
725 disabled by default at run-time. It may be re-enabled using the
726 instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
727 - Support for ssh-dss, ssh-dss-cert-* host and user keys is disabled by
728 default at run-time. These may be re-enabled using the instructions
729 at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
730 - Support for the legacy v00 cert format has been removed.
731 - The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has changed
732 from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
733 - PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
734 interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
735 hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
736 keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those were
737 enabled).
738 - ssh_config(5): Add PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes option to control which
739 public key types are available for user authentication.
740 - sshd_config(5): Add HostKeyAlgorithms option to control which public
741 key types are offered for host authentications.
742 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Extend Ciphers, MACs, KexAlgorithms,
743 HostKeyAlgorithms, PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and HostbasedKeyTypes
744 options to allow appending to the default set of algorithms instead of
745 replacing it. Options may now be prefixed with a '+' to append to the
746 default, e.g. "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss".
747 - sshd_config(5): PermitRootLogin now accepts an argument of
748 'prohibit-password' as a less-ambiguous synonym of 'without-
749 password'.
750 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatability workarounds for Cisco and more
751 PuTTY versions.
752 - Fix some omissions and errors in the PROTOCOL and PROTOCOL.mux
753 documentation relating to Unix domain socket forwarding.
754 - ssh(1): Improve the ssh(1) manual page to include a better description
755 of Unix domain socket forwarding (closes: #779068).
756 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Skip uninitialised PKCS#11 slots, fixing
757 failures to load keys when they are present.
758 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Do not ignore PKCS#11 hosted keys that wth empty
759 CKA_ID.
760 - sshd(8): Clarify documentation for UseDNS option.
761 - Check realpath(3) behaviour matches what sftp-server requires and use
762 a replacement if necessary.
763 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.1):
764 - sshd(8): OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in PermitRootLogin=
765 prohibit-password/without-password that could, depending on
766 compile-time configuration, permit password authentication to root
767 while preventing other forms of authentication. This problem was
768 reported by Mantas Mikulenas.
769 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.
770 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
771 - Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
772 memory, etc) in ssh(1) and ssh-keygen(1). Reported by Mateusz
773 Kocielski.
774 * Change "PermitRootLogin without-password" to the new preferred spelling
775 of "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password" in sshd_config, and update
776 documentation to reflect the new upstream default.
777 * Enable conch interoperability tests under autopkgtest.

807 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
808 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
809 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
810 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
811 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
812 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
813 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
814 from hex to base64.
815 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
816 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
817 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
818 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
819 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
820 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
821 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
822 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
823 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
824 option (default off).
825 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
826 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
827 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
828 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
829 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
830 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
831 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
832 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
833 authentication.
834 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
835 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
836 decryption.
837 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
838 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
839 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
840 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
841 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
842 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
843 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
844 all.

846 against MaxAuthTries.
847 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
848 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
849 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
850 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.

870 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
871 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
872 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
873 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
874 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
875 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
876 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
877 by Jann Horn.
878 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
879 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
880 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
881 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
882 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
883 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
884 (closes: #740494).
885 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
886 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
887 file.
888 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
889 devices.
890 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
891 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
892 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
893 enabling debug mode.
894 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
895 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
896 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
897 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
898 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
899 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).

901 parsing.
902 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
903 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
904 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
905 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from
906 the list of active forwards.
907 - sshd(8): Make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options
908 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
909 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
910 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
911 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
912 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
913 options to appear in any order.
914 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
915 and ForceCommand.
916 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
917 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
918 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
919 forwarding requested.
920 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
921 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
922 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
923 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
924 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
925 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
926 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
927 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
928 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
929 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
930 host key fingerprints.
931 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
932 language consistent.
933 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
934 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
935 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
936 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
937 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
938 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
939 to fix security issues:
940 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
941 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
942 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
943 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
944 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
945 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
946 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
947 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
948 Moritz Jodeit.
949 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
950 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
951 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
952 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
953 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
954 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
955 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
956 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
957 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
958 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
959 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
960 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
961 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
962 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
963 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
964 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

1021
1022 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
1023 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
1024 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
1025 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
1026 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
1027 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
1028 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
1029 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
1030 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
1031 key types.
1032 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
1033 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
1034 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
1035 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
1036 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
1037 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
1038 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
1039 option.
1040 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
1041 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
1042 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
1043 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
1044 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
1045 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
1046 authentication success / failure messages.
1047 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
1048 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
1049 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
1050 #734553).
1051 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
1052 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
1053 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
1054 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
1055 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
1056 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
1057 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
1058 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
1059 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
1060 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
1061 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
1062 field.
1063 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
1064 simply a new enough dpkg.
1065 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
1066 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
1067 field.
1068 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
1069 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

1253
1254 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.5,
1255 LP: #1275068):
1256 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
1257 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
1258 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
1259 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking
1260 host certificate names (closes: #115286).
1261 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
1262 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
1263 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
1264 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
1265 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
1266 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
1267 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See
1268 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full
1269 reasoning.
1270 * Add OpenPGP signature checking configuration to watch file (thanks,
1271 Daniel Kahn Gillmor; closes: #732441).
1272 * Add the pam_keyinit session module, to create a new session keyring on
1273 login (closes: #734816).
1274 * Incorporate default path changes from shadow 1:4.0.18.1-8, removing
1275 /usr/bin/X11 (closes: #644521).
1276 * Generate ED25519 host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish
1277 to add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
1278 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run
1279 'ssh-keygen -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key -N "" -t ed25519'.
1280 * Drop long-obsolete "SSH now uses protocol 2 by default" section from
1281 README.Debian.
1282 * Add systemd support (thanks, Sven Joachim; closes: #676830).

1296 * New upstream release. Important changes:
1297 - 6.3/6.3p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.3):
1298 + sftp(1): add support for resuming partial downloads using the
1299 "reget" command and on the sftp commandline or on the "get"
1300 commandline using the "-a" (append) option (closes: #158590).
1301 + ssh(1): add an "IgnoreUnknown" configuration option to selectively
1302 suppress errors arising from unknown configuration directives
1303 (closes: #436052).
1304 + sftp(1): update progressmeter when data is acknowledged, not when
1305 it's sent (partially addresses #708372).
1306 + ssh(1): do not fatally exit when attempting to cleanup multiplexing-
1307 created channels that are incompletely opened (closes: #651357).
1308 - 6.4/6.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.4):
1309 + CVE-2013-4548: sshd(8): fix a memory corruption problem triggered
1310 during rekeying when an AES-GCM cipher is selected (closes:
1311 #729029). Full details of the vulnerability are available at:
1312 http://www.openssh.com/txt/gcmrekey.adv
1313 * When running under Upstart, only consider the daemon started once it is
1314 ready to accept connections (by raising SIGSTOP at that point and using
1315 "expect stop").

1353 * If the running init daemon is Upstart, then, on the first upgrade to
1354 this version, check whether sysvinit is still managing sshd; if so,
1355 manually stop it so that it can be restarted under upstart. We do this
1356 near the end of the postinst, so it shouldn't result in any appreciable
1357 extra window where sshd is not running during upgrade.

1360
1361openssh (1:6.2p2-2) unstable; urgency=low
1362
1363 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
1364 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
1365 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
1366 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
1367 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
1368 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
1369 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
1370 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
1371 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
1372 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
1373 the packaging.
1374 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
1375 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
1376 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
1377 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
1378 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
1379 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
1380 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
1381 openssh-server.postinst.
1382 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
1383 via dh_installdeb.
1384 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
1385 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
1386 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
1387 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
1388 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
1389 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
1390 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
1391 chroot.
1392 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
1393 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
1394 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
1395 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.
1396 * This removes the last of our uses of debconf (closes: #221531).
1397 * Use the pam_loginuid session module (thanks, Laurent Bigonville; closes:
1398 #677440, LP: #1067779).
1399 * Bracket our session stack with calls to pam_selinux close/open (thanks,
1400 Laurent Bigonville; closes: #679458).
1401 * Fix dh_builddeb invocation so that we really use xz compression for
1402 binary packages, as intended since 1:6.1p1-2.

1668
1669 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.7):
1670 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
1671 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
1672 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
1673 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
1674 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
1675 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
1676 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
1677 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
1678 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
1679 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
1680 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
1681 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
1682 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
1683 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
1684 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
1685 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
1686 (closes: #594687).
1687 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
1688 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
1689 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
1690 it to be stripped off).
1691 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
1692 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
1693 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
1694 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
1695 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
1696 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
1697 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
1698 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
1699 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
1700 * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this
1701 SELinux build fix.

1818
1819 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
1820 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
1821 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
1822 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
1823 or on the command-line.
1824 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
1825 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
1826 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
1827 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
1828 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
1829 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
1830 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
1831 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
1832 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
1833 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
1834 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
1835 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
1836 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
1837 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
1838 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
1839 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
1840 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
1841 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
1842 (closes: #270399, #428082).
1843 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
1844 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
1845 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
1846 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
1847
1848 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
1849 patches apply with offsets.
1850 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
1851 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
1852 around with uudecode.
1853 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
1854 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
1855 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
1856 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
1857 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
1858 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
1859 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
1860 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
1861 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
1862 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
1863 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
1864 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
1865 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
1866 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
1867 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
1868 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
1869 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
1870 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
1871 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
1872 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
1873 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
1874 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
1875 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
1876 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
1877 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
1878 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
1879 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
1880 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
1881 * Policy version 3.8.4:
1882 - Add a Homepage field.

1953 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
1954 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
1955 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
1956 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
1957 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
1958 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
1959 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
1960 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
1961 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
1962 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
1963 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).

2059 - packet_disconnect() on padding error, too. Should reduce the success
2060 probability for the CPNI-957037 Plaintext Recovery Attack to 2^-18.
2061 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there
2062 corresponds to sshd before running '/etc/init.d/ssh reload' from if-up
2063 script; SIGHUP is racy if called at boot before sshd has a chance to
2064 install its signal handler, but fortunately the pid file is written
2065 after that which lets us avoid the race (closes: #502444).
2066 * While the above is a valuable sanity-check, it turns out that it doesn't
2067 really fix the bug (thanks to Kevin Price for testing), so for the
2068 meantime we'll just use '/etc/init.d/ssh restart', even though it is

2108
2109 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
2110 backported to 4.7p1:
2111 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
2112 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
2113 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
2114 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
2115 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
2116 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
2117 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
2118 inside the chroot environment.
2119 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
2120 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
2121 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
2122 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
2123 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
2124 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
2125 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
2126 also allow Protocol 1.
2127 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
2128 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
2129 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
2130 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
2131 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
2132 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
2133 embedded backslash escape sequences.
2134 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
2135 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
2136 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
2137 /bin/sh.
2138 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
2139 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
2140 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
2141 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
2142 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
2143 connections via a ProxyCommand.
2144 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
2145 #140828).
2146 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
2147 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
2148 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
2149 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
2150 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
2151 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
2152 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
2153 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
2154 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
2155 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
2156 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
2157 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
2158 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
2159 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
2160 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
2161 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
2162 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
2163 (LP: #119295).
2164 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
2165 chroot (LP: #237557).
2166 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
2167 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
2168 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
2169 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
2170 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
2171 rejection of changed host keys.
2172 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
2173 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
2174 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
2175 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
2176 matching.
2177 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
2178 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
2179 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
2180 source address and hostname) to test the application of
2181 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
2182 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
2183 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
2184 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
2185 connections only).
2186 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
2187 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
2188 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
2189 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
2190 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
2191 the server).
2192 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
2193 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
2194 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
2195 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
2196 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
2197 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
2198 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
2199 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
2200 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
2201 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
2202 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
2203 hijacked.
2204 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
2205 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
2206 fingerprint.
2207 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
2208 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
2209 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
2210 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
2211 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
2212 forwarder.
2213 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
2214 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
2215 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
2216 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
2217 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
2218 address and give up if that failed.
2219 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
2220 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
2221 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
2222 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
2223 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
2224 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
2225 from 768 to 1024 bits.
2226 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
2227 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
2228 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
2229 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
2230 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
2231 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
2232 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
2233 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
2234 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
2235 blocks.
2236 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
2237 that are available to a primary connection.
2238 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
2239 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
2240 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
2241 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
2242 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
2243 server runs out of file descriptors).
2244 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
2245 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
2246 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
2247 platforms.
2248 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
2249 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
2250 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
2251 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
2252 targets).
2253 * Merge from Ubuntu:
2254 - Add 'status' action to openssh-server init script, requiring lsb-base
2255 (>= 3.2-13) (thanks, Dustin Kirkland).

2489 * New upstream release (closes: #453367).
2490 - CVE-2007-4752: Prevent ssh(1) from using a trusted X11 cookie if
2491 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
2492 (closes: #444738).
2493 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
2494 installations are unchanged.
2495 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
2496 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
2497 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
2498 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
2499 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
2500 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
2501 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
2502 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
2503 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
2504 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
2505 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
2506 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
2507 without passing the full exit status.
2508 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
2509 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
2510 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
2511 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
2512 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
2513 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
2514 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
2515 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
2516 mechanisms.
2517 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
2518 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
2519 into the client.
2520 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
2521 have been established.
2522 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
2523 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
2524 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
2525 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
2526 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed
2527 (closes: #405041).
2528 - Manual page datestamps updated (closes: #433181).
2529 * Install the OpenSSH FAQ in /usr/share/doc/openssh-client.
2530 - Includes documentation on copying files with colons using scp

2535 * Refactor debian/rules configure and make invocations to make development
2536 easier.

2538 * Update moduli(5) to revision 1.11 from OpenBSD CVS.
2539 * Document the non-default options we set as standard in ssh_config(5) and

2541 * Recode LICENCE to UTF-8 when concatenating it to debian/copyright.
2542 * Override desktop-file-but-no-dh_desktop-call lintian warning; the
2543 .desktop file is intentionally not installed (see 1:3.8.1p1-10).

2639
2640 * New upstream release (closes: #395507, #397961, #420035). Important
2641 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
2642 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.4):
2643 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
2644 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
2645 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
2646 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
2647 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
2648 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
2649 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
2650 be added in future releases.
2651 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
2652 final hash of SHA256.
2653 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
2654 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
2655 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
2656 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
2657 option.
2658 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
2659 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
2660 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
2661 establish.
2662 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
2663 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
2664 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
2665 (closes: #50612).
2666 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
2667 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
2668 established.
2669 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
2670 specification of command-line arguments.
2671 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
2672 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
2673 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
2674 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
2675 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
2676 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
2677 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
2678 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
2679 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
2680 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
2681 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
2682 liberal (closes: #103677).
2683 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
2684 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
2685 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
2686 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
2687 in sshd_config.
2688 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
2689 progress meter (closes: #257524).
2690 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
2691 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
2692 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2693 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
2694 install ChangeLog.gssapi.
2695 * Build the .deb --with-ssl-engine (closes: #408027, LP: #119295).
2696 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
2697 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).
2698 * Move init script start links to S16, move rc1 stop link to K84, and
2699 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
2700 closes: #122188).
2701 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
2702 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
2703 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
2704 * Merge from Ubuntu:
2705 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
2706 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
2707 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
2708 the default path.
2709 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
2710 openssh-client dependency.

2783 * Make GSSAPICleanupCreds a compatibility alias for
2784 GSSAPICleanupCredentials. Mark GSSUseSessionCCache and
2785 GSSAPIUseSessionCredCache as known-but-unsupported options, and migrate
2786 away from them on upgrade.
2787 * It turns out that the people who told me that removing a conffile in the
2788 preinst was sufficient to have dpkg replace it without prompting when
2789 moving a conffile between packages were very much mistaken. As far as I
2790 can tell, the only way to do this reliably is to write out the desired
2791 new text of the conffile in the preinst. This is gross, and requires
2792 shipping the text of all conffiles in the preinst too, but there's
2793 nothing for it. Fortunately this nonsense is only required for smooth
2794 upgrades from sarge.

2910 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
2911 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
2912 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
2913 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
2914 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
2915 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
2916 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
2917 scp (closes: #349645).
2918 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
2919 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
2920 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
2921 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
2922 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
2923 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
2924 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
2925 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
2926 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
2927 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
2928 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
2929 background at the time of session exit.
2930 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
2931 without arguments (closes: #114894).
2932 - Fix timing variance for valid vs. invalid accounts when attempting
2933 Kerberos authentication.
2934 - Ensure that ssh always returns code 255 on internal error
2935 (closes: #259865).
2936 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
2937 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
2938 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
2939 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:
2940 https://launchpad.net/bugs/25528).
2941 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
2942 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
2943 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
2944 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
2945 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
2946 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
2947 - Many manual page improvements.
2948 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
2949 possible crashes.
2950 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2951 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.3p2-gsskex-20060223.patch
2952 (closes: #352042).
2953 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
2954 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
2955 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
2956 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
2957 (closes: #349896).
2958 * Rephrase ssh/new_config and ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen debconf

3062 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
3063 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
3064 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
3065 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
3066 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable

3173 * New upstream release.
3174 - Normalise socket addresses returned by get_remote_hostname(), fixing
3175 4-in-6 mapping issues with AllowUsers et al (closes: #192234).
3176 * Take upstream's hint and disable the unsupported USE_POSIX_THREADS
3177 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
3178 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may
3179 provide two sets of binaries built with and without this option, since
3180 it seems I can't win.
3181 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
3182 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
3183 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).
3184 * openssh-server Suggests: rssh (closes: #233012).
3185 * Change libexecdir to /usr/lib/openssh, and fix up various alternatives
3186 and configuration files to match (closes: #87900, #151321).
3187 * Fix up very old sshd_config files that refer to /usr/libexec/sftp-server
3188 (closes: #141979).

3194 * New upstream release.
3195 - Port-forwarding specifications now take optional bind addresses, and
3196 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
3197 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
3198 (closes: #87253, #192206).
3199 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
3200 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
3201 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
3202 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
3203 (closes: #287013).
3204 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
3205 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
3206 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
3207 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
3208 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
3209 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
3210 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
3211 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
3212 closes: #296487).
3213 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
3214 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
3215 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
3216 - Link with -lcrypt.
3217 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
3218 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
3219 satisfy build-dependencies.
3220 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
3221 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
3222 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
3223 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
3224 (closes: #307069).
3225 * debconf template translations:
3226 - Update Czech (thanks, Miroslav Kure; closes: #298744).
3227 - Update Finnish (thanks, Matti Pöllä; closes: #303787).
3228 - Synchronise Spanish with sarge branch (thanks, Javier
3229 Fernández-Sanguino Peña; closes: #298536).
3230 - Add Ukrainian (thanks, Eugeniy Meshcheryakov; closes: #301852).

3264 - 'ssh -c' documentation improved (closes: #265627).

3333 * Split the ssh binary package into openssh-client and openssh-server
3334 (closes: #39741). openssh-server depends on openssh-client for some
3335 common functionality; it didn't seem worth creating yet another package
3336 for this. openssh-client is priority standard, openssh-server optional.
3337 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
3338 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends
3339 on it.
3340 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
3341 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
3342 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
3343 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
3344 and ssh/user_environment_tell.
3345 * Add a heuristic to try to make sure the sshd_config upgrade to >= 3.7
3346 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
3347 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
3348 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing
3349 configurations, but the right approach is now to remove the
3350 openssh-server package if you don't want to run the server. Add a NEWS
3351 item to that effect.

3520 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
3521 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
3522 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
3523 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
3524 syslog (closes: #171673).
3525 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
3526 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
3527 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
3528 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
3529 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
3530 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
3531 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
3532 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
3533 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
3534 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
3535 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
3536 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
3537 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
3538 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
3539 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
3540 ssh_config(5) for details.
3541 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
3542 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
3543 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
3544 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
3545 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.

3547 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
3548 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.

3719 - Simplify the postinst by relying on debconf being present. (The absent
3720 case was buggy anyway.)
3721 - Get rid of "if you have not installed debconf" text in README.Debian,
3722 and generally update the "/usr/bin/ssh not SUID" entry.
3723 * More README.Debian work:
3724 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
3725 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
3726 should probably be sorted by version somehow.
3727 - Document X11UseLocalhost under "X11 Forwarding" (closes: #150913).

3747 of other merged bugs).
3748 - ssh-copy-id prints usage when run without arguments (closes: #71376).

3750 - sshd writes to utmp's ut_addr_v6 field in IPv6 mode (closes: #167867).

3776 * Find out whether /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run exists and set the debconf
3777 question's default using that information, rather than using debconf as
3778 a registry. Other solutions may be better in the long run, but this is
3779 at least correct (thanks, Matthew Woodcraft; closes: #84725).
3780 * Stop using pam_lastlog, as it doesn't currently work well as a session
3781 module when privilege separation is enabled; it can usually read
3782 /var/log/lastlog but can't write to it. Instead, just use sshd's
3783 built-in support, already enabled by default (closes: #151297, #169938).

3840 are deprecated for security reasons and will eventually go away. For

3843 - ssh-agent is installed setgid to prevent ptrace() attacks. The group
3844 actually doesn't matter, as it drops privileges immediately, but to
3845 avoid confusion the postinst creates a new 'ssh' group for it.

4641 -> ssh-nonfree -> openssh. Without these, debconf remembered
4642 the old answer, config didn't force asking it, and preinst always

4646 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
4647 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
