21
22 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
23 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
24 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
25 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
26 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
27 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
28 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
29 from hex to base64.
30 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
31 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
32 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
33 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
34 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
35 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
36 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
37 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
38 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
39 option (default off).
40 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
41 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
42 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
43 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
44 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
45 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
46 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
47 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
48 authentication.
49 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
50 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
51 decryption.
52 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
53 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
54 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
55 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
56 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
57 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
58 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
59 all.
60 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
61 against MaxAuthTries.
62 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
63 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
64 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
65 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
66 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
67 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
68 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
69 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
70 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
71 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against
72 servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol (closes: #241119).
73 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were
74 being lost as comment fields (closes: #787776).
75 - ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse
76 phase to be applied (they were being ignored; closes: #774369).
77 - ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the
78 second pass through the config files always run when host name
79 canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes)
80 - ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection
81 multiplexing is in use.
82 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH
83 formats.
84 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use.
85 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
86 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
87 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
88 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
89 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
90 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
91 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
92 by Jann Horn.
93 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
94 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
95 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
96 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
97 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
98 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
99 (closes: #740494).
100 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
101 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
102 file.
103 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
104 devices.
105 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
106 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
107 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
108 enabling debug mode.
109 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
110 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
111 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
112 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
113 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
114 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).
115 - ssh(1): Fix out-of-bound read in EscapeChar configuration option
116 parsing.
117 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
118 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
119 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
120 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from
121 the list of active forwards.
122 - sshd(8): Make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options
123 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
124 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
125 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
126 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
127 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
128 options to appear in any order.
129 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
130 and ForceCommand.
131 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
132 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
133 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
134 forwarding requested.
135 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
136 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
137 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
138 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
139 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
140 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
141 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
142 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
143 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
144 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
145 host key fingerprints.
146 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
147 language consistent.
148 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
149 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
150 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
151 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
152 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
153 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
154 to fix security issues:
155 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
156 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
157 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
158 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
159 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
160 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
161 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
162 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
163 Moritz Jodeit.
164 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
165 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
166 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
167 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
168 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
169 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
170 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
171 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
172 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
173 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
174 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
175 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
176 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
177 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
178 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
179 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

201 difficult to undo the sshd_config change automatically without

236
237 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
238 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
239 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
240 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
241 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
242 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
243 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
244 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
245 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
246 key types.
247 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
248 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
249 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
250 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
251 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
252 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
253 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
254 option.
255 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
256 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
257 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
258 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
259 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
260 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
261 authentication success / failure messages.
262 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
263 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
264 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
265 #734553).
266 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
267 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
268 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
269 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
270 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
271 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
272 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
273 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
274 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
275 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
276 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
277 field.
278 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
279 simply a new enough dpkg.
280 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
281 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
282 field.
283 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
284 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

421 symlinks that won't work with dependency-based sysv-rc.
422 * Remove code related to non-dependency-based sysv-rc ordering, since that
423 is no longer supported.

431 * Clarify socket activation mode in README.Debian, as suggested by Uoti
432 Urpala.
433 * Stop claiming that "Protocol 2" is a Debian-specific default; this has
434 been upstream's default since 5.4p1.
435 * Avoid stdout noise from which(1) on purge of openssh-client.
436 * Fix sysvinit->systemd transition code to cope with still-running
437 sysvinit jobs being considered active by systemd (thanks, Uoti Urpala
438 and Michael Biebl).
439 * Bump guard version for sysvinit->systemd transition to 1:6.5p1-3; we may
440 have got it wrong before, and it's fairly harmless to repeat it.
441 * Remove tests for whether /dev/null is a character device from the
442 Upstart job and the systemd service files; it's there to avoid a
443 confusing failure mode in daemon(), but with modern init systems we use
444 the -D option to suppress daemonisation anyway.
445 * Refer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 in debian/copyright (for the
446 Debian patch) rather than plain GPL.
447 * Drop some very old Conflicts and Replaces (ssh (<< 1:3.8.1p1-9),
448 rsh-client (<< 0.16.1-1), ssh-krb5 (<< 1:4.3p2-7), ssh-nonfree (<< 2),
449 and openssh-client (<< 1:3.8.1p1-11)). These all relate to pre-etch
450 versions, for which we no longer have maintainer script code, and per
451 policy they would have to become Breaks nowadays anyway.
452 * Policy version 3.9.5.
453 * Drop unnecessary -1 in zlib1g Build-Depends version.
454 * Tweak dh_systemd_enable invocations to avoid lots of error noise.

468
469 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.5,
470 LP: #1275068):
471 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
472 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
473 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
474 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking
475 host certificate names (closes: #115286).
476 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
477 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
478 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
479 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
480 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
481 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
482 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See
483 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full
484 reasoning.
485 * Add OpenPGP signature checking configuration to watch file (thanks,
486 Daniel Kahn Gillmor; closes: #732441).
487 * Add the pam_keyinit session module, to create a new session keyring on
488 login (closes: #734816).
489 * Incorporate default path changes from shadow 1:4.0.18.1-8, removing
490 /usr/bin/X11 (closes: #644521).
491 * Generate ED25519 host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish
492 to add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
493 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run
494 'ssh-keygen -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key -N "" -t ed25519'.
495 * Drop long-obsolete "SSH now uses protocol 2 by default" section from
496 README.Debian.
497 * Add systemd support (thanks, Sven Joachim; closes: #676830).

512 - 6.3/6.3p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.3):
513 + sftp(1): add support for resuming partial downloads using the
514 "reget" command and on the sftp commandline or on the "get"
515 commandline using the "-a" (append) option (closes: #158590).
516 + ssh(1): add an "IgnoreUnknown" configuration option to selectively
517 suppress errors arising from unknown configuration directives
518 (closes: #436052).
519 + sftp(1): update progressmeter when data is acknowledged, not when
520 it's sent (partially addresses #708372).
521 + ssh(1): do not fatally exit when attempting to cleanup multiplexing-
522 created channels that are incompletely opened (closes: #651357).
523 - 6.4/6.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.4):
524 + CVE-2013-4548: sshd(8): fix a memory corruption problem triggered
525 during rekeying when an AES-GCM cipher is selected (closes:
526 #729029). Full details of the vulnerability are available at:
527 http://www.openssh.com/txt/gcmrekey.adv
528 * When running under Upstart, only consider the daemon started once it is
529 ready to accept connections (by raising SIGSTOP at that point and using
530 "expect stop").

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

576openssh (1:6.2p2-2) unstable; urgency=low
577
578 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
579 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
580 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
581 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
582 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
583 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
584 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
585 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
586 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
587 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
588 the packaging.
589 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
590 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
591 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
592 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
593 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
594 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
595 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
596 openssh-server.postinst.
597 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
598 via dh_installdeb.
599 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
600 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
601 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
602 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
603 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
604 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
605 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
606 chroot.
607 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
608 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
609 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
610 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.
611 * This removes the last of our uses of debconf (closes: #221531).
612 * Use the pam_loginuid session module (thanks, Laurent Bigonville; closes:
613 #677440, LP: #1067779).
614 * Bracket our session stack with calls to pam_selinux close/open (thanks,
615 Laurent Bigonville; closes: #679458).
616 * Fix dh_builddeb invocation so that we really use xz compression for
617 binary packages, as intended since 1:6.1p1-2.

826 least you'll only get one log entry per key (closes: #630606).
827 * Merge from Ubuntu (Dustin Kirkland):
828 - openssh-server Recommends: ssh-import-id (no-op in Debian since that

884 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.org/txt/release-5.7):
885 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
886 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
887 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
888 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
889 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
890 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
891 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
892 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
893 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
894 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
895 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
896 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
897 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
898 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
899 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
900 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
901 (closes: #594687).
902 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
903 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
904 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
905 it to be stripped off).
906 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
907 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
908 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
909 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
910 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
911 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
912 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
913 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
914 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
915 * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this
916 SELinux build fix.

1034 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
1035 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
1036 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
1037 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
1038 or on the command-line.
1039 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
1040 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
1041 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
1042 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
1043 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
1044 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
1045 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
1046 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
1047 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
1048 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
1049 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
1050 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
1051 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
1052 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
1053 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
1054 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
1055 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
1056 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
1057 (closes: #270399, #428082).
1058 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
1059 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
1060 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
1061 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
1062
1063 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
1064 patches apply with offsets.
1065 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
1066 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
1067 around with uudecode.
1068 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
1069 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
1070 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
1071 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
1072 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
1073 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
1074 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
1075 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
1076 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
1077 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
1078 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
1079 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
1080 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
1081 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
1082 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
1083 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
1084 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
1085 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
1086 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
1087 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
1088 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
1089 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
1090 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
1091 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
1092 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
1093 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
1094 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
1095 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
1096 * Policy version 3.8.4:
1097 - Add a Homepage field.

1168 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
1169 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
1170 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
1171 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
1172 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
1173 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
1174 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
1175 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
1176 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
1177 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
1178 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).

1184 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
1185 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
1186 openssh-5.1.

1323
1324 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
1325 backported to 4.7p1:
1326 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
1327 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
1328 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
1329 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
1330 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
1331 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
1332 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
1333 inside the chroot environment.
1334 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
1335 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
1336 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
1337 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
1338 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
1339 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
1340 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
1341 also allow Protocol 1.
1342 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
1343 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
1344 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
1345 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
1346 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
1347 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
1348 embedded backslash escape sequences.
1349 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
1350 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
1351 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
1352 /bin/sh.
1353 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
1354 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
1355 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
1356 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
1357 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
1358 connections via a ProxyCommand.
1359 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
1360 #140828).
1361 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
1362 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
1363 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
1364 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
1365 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
1366 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
1367 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
1368 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
1369 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
1370 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
1371 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
1372 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
1373 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
1374 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
1375 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
1376 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
1377 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
1378 (LP: #119295).
1379 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
1380 chroot (LP: #237557).
1381 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
1382 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
1383 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
1384 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
1385 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
1386 rejection of changed host keys.
1387 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
1388 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
1389 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
1390 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
1391 matching.
1392 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
1393 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
1394 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
1395 source address and hostname) to test the application of
1396 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
1397 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
1398 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
1399 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
1400 connections only).
1401 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
1402 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
1403 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
1404 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
1405 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
1406 the server).
1407 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
1408 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
1409 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
1410 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
1411 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
1412 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
1413 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
1414 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
1415 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
1416 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
1417 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
1418 hijacked.
1419 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
1420 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
1421 fingerprint.
1422 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
1423 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
1424 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
1425 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
1426 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
1427 forwarder.
1428 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
1429 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
1430 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
1431 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
1432 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
1433 address and give up if that failed.
1434 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
1435 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
1436 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
1437 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
1438 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
1439 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
1440 from 768 to 1024 bits.
1441 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
1442 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
1443 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
1444 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
1445 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
1446 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
1447 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
1448 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
1449 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
1450 blocks.
1451 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
1452 that are available to a primary connection.
1453 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
1454 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
1455 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
1456 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
1457 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
1458 server runs out of file descriptors).
1459 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
1460 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
1461 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
1462 platforms.
1463 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
1464 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
1465 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
1466 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
1467 targets).
1468 * Merge from Ubuntu:
1469 - Add 'status' action to openssh-server init script, requiring lsb-base
1470 (>= 3.2-13) (thanks, Dustin Kirkland).

1704 * New upstream release (closes: #453367).
1705 - CVE-2007-4752: Prevent ssh(1) from using a trusted X11 cookie if
1706 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
1707 (closes: #444738).
1708 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
1709 installations are unchanged.
1710 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
1711 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
1712 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
1713 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
1714 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
1715 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
1716 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
1717 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
1718 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
1719 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
1720 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
1721 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
1722 without passing the full exit status.
1723 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
1724 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
1725 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
1726 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
1727 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
1728 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
1729 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
1730 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
1731 mechanisms.
1732 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
1733 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
1734 into the client.
1735 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
1736 have been established.
1737 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
1738 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
1739 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
1740 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
1741 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed
1742 (closes: #405041).
1743 - Manual page datestamps updated (closes: #433181).
1744 * Install the OpenSSH FAQ in /usr/share/doc/openssh-client.

1854
1855 * New upstream release (closes: #395507, #397961, #420035). Important
1856 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
1857 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.org/txt/release-4.4):
1858 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
1859 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
1860 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
1861 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
1862 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
1863 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
1864 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
1865 be added in future releases.
1866 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
1867 final hash of SHA256.
1868 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
1869 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
1870 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
1871 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
1872 option.
1873 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
1874 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
1875 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
1876 establish.
1877 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
1878 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
1879 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
1880 (closes: #50612).
1881 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
1882 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
1883 established.
1884 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
1885 specification of command-line arguments.
1886 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
1887 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
1888 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
1889 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
1890 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
1891 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
1892 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
1893 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
1894 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
1895 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
1896 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
1897 liberal (closes: #103677).
1898 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
1899 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.org/txt/release-4.6):
1900 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
1901 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
1902 in sshd_config.
1903 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
1904 progress meter (closes: #257524).
1905 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
1906 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
1907 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
1908 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
1909 install ChangeLog.gssapi.
1910 * Build the .deb --with-ssl-engine (closes: #408027, LP: #119295).
1911 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
1912 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).
1913 * Move init script start links to S16, move rc1 stop link to K84, and
1914 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
1915 closes: #122188).
1916 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
1917 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
1918 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
1919 * Merge from Ubuntu:
1920 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
1921 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
1922 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
1923 the default path.
1924 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
1925 openssh-client dependency.

1996 * Drop versioning on ssh/ssh-krb5 Replaces, as otherwise it isn't

2000 GSSAPIUseSessionCredCache as known-but-unsupported options, and migrate
2001 away from them on upgrade.
2002 * It turns out that the people who told me that removing a conffile in the
2003 preinst was sufficient to have dpkg replace it without prompting when
2004 moving a conffile between packages were very much mistaken. As far as I
2005 can tell, the only way to do this reliably is to write out the desired
2006 new text of the conffile in the preinst. This is gross, and requires
2007 shipping the text of all conffiles in the preinst too, but there's
2008 nothing for it. Fortunately this nonsense is only required for smooth
2009 upgrades from sarge.

2125 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
2126 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
2127 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
2128 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
2129 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
2130 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
2131 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
2132 scp (closes: #349645).
2133 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
2134 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
2135 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
2136 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
2137 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
2138 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
2139 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
2140 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
2141 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
2142 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
2143 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
2144 background at the time of session exit.
2145 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
2146 without arguments (closes: #114894).
2147 - Fix timing variance for valid vs. invalid accounts when attempting
2148 Kerberos authentication.
2149 - Ensure that ssh always returns code 255 on internal error
2150 (closes: #259865).
2151 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
2152 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
2153 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
2154 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:
2155 https://launchpad.net/bugs/25528).
2156 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
2157 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
2158 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
2159 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
2160 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
2161 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
2162 - Many manual page improvements.
2163 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
2164 possible crashes.
2165 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2166 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.3p2-gsskex-20060223.patch
2167 (closes: #352042).
2168 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
2169 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
2170 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
2171 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
2172 (closes: #349896).
2173 * Rephrase ssh/new_config and ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen debconf
2174 templates to make boolean short descriptions end with a question mark
2175 and to avoid use of the first person.

2276 credentials. This code is only built in openssh-krb5, not openssh, but
2277 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
2278 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
2279 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
2280 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
2281 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable
2282 compression on the client or set "Compression yes" (losing this

2375 question text had got out of date anyway. Remove this question, ship
2376 ssh-keysign setuid in openssh-client.deb, and set a statoverride if the
2377 debconf question was previously set to false.

2388 * New upstream release.
2389 - Normalise socket addresses returned by get_remote_hostname(), fixing
2390 4-in-6 mapping issues with AllowUsers et al (closes: #192234).
2391 * Take upstream's hint and disable the unsupported USE_POSIX_THREADS
2392 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
2393 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may
2394 provide two sets of binaries built with and without this option, since
2395 it seems I can't win.
2396 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
2397 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
2398 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).
2399 * openssh-server Suggests: rssh (closes: #233012).
2400 * Change libexecdir to /usr/lib/openssh, and fix up various alternatives
2401 and configuration files to match (closes: #87900, #151321).

2410 - Port-forwarding specifications now take optional bind addresses, and
2411 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
2412 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
2413 (closes: #87253, #192206).
2414 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
2415 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
2416 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
2417 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
2418 (closes: #287013).
2419 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
2420 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
2421 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
2422 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
2423 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
2424 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
2425 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
2426 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
2427 closes: #296487).
2428 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
2429 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
2430 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
2431 - Link with -lcrypt.
2432 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
2433 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
2434 satisfy build-dependencies.
2435 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
2436 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
2437 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
2438 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
2439 (closes: #307069).
2440 * debconf template translations:
2441 - Update Czech (thanks, Miroslav Kure; closes: #298744).

2551 for this. openssh-client is priority standard, openssh-server optional.
2552 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
2553 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends
2554 on it.
2555 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
2556 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
2557 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
2558 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
2559 and ssh/user_environment_tell.
2560 * Add a heuristic to try to make sure the sshd_config upgrade to >= 3.7
2561 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
2562 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
2563 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing
2564 configurations, but the right approach is now to remove the

2735 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session

2737 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back

2739 syslog (closes: #171673).
2740 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).

2744 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
2745 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
2746 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
2747 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
2748 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
2749 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
2750 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
2751 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
2752 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
2753 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
2754 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see

2762 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
2763 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.
2764 - Fix a non-security-critical segfault in PAM authentication.

2935 case was buggy anyway.)
2936 - Get rid of "if you have not installed debconf" text in README.Debian,
2937 and generally update the "/usr/bin/ssh not SUID" entry.
2938 * More README.Debian work:
2939 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
2940 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
2941 should probably be sorted by version somehow.
2942 - Document X11UseLocalhost under "X11 Forwarding" (closes: #150913).

2991 * Find out whether /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run exists and set the debconf
2992 question's default using that information, rather than using debconf as
2993 a registry. Other solutions may be better in the long run, but this is
2994 at least correct (thanks, Matthew Woodcraft; closes: #84725).
2995 * Stop using pam_lastlog, as it doesn't currently work well as a session
2996 module when privilege separation is enabled; it can usually read
2997 /var/log/lastlog but can't write to it. Instead, just use sshd's
2998 built-in support, already enabled by default (closes: #151297, #169938).

3058 - ssh-agent is installed setgid to prevent ptrace() attacks. The group
3059 actually doesn't matter, as it drops privileges immediately, but to
3060 avoid confusion the postinst creates a new 'ssh' group for it.
