55
56 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.5):
57 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle
58 countermeasures that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH
59 7.3 to proceed. Note that the OpenSSH client disables CBC ciphers by
60 default, sshd offers them as lowest-preference options and will remove
61 them by default entirely in the next release.
62 - This release deprecates the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation option,
63 thereby making privilege separation mandatory (closes: #407754).
64 - The format of several log messages emitted by the packet code has
65 changed to include additional information about the user and their
66 authentication state. Software that monitors ssh/sshd logs may need
67 to account for these changes.
68 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
69 algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
70 - sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start messages
71 are sent out of sequence.
72 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in configuration
73 files.
74 - sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the server-sig-algs
75 extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were not being correctly
76 advertised.
77 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
78 known_hosts processing.
79 - ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
80 file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
81 - ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option, accept
82 RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype. Previously,
83 ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-* methods were
84 enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa method.
85 - ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file lines.
86 - Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat and
87 FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor leaks in
88 error paths.
89 - ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
90 "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
91 - ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
92 line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat square
93 bracket characters specially.
94 - Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol 1
95 support from the server, including the server banner string being
96 incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing error
97 messages from ssh-keyscan, and a segfault in sshd if protocol v.1 was
98 enabled for the client and sshd_config contained references to legacy
99 keys.
100 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
101 - sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server returns
102 zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
103 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
104 encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
105 - ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
106 printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
107 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
108 feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
109 - sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
110 AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
111 matched early.
112 - ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
113 cancellation.
114 - ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files can't
115 be opened.
116 - sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token in
117 AuthorizedKeysCommand.
118 - sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM.
119 - ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and common
120 32-bit compatibility library directories.
121 - sftp-client(1): Fix non-exploitable integer overflow in SSH2_FXP_NAME
122 response handling.
123 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression in 7.4 of deleting PKCS#11-hosted keys.
124 It was not possible to delete them except by specifying their full
125 physical path.
126 - sshd(8): Avoid sandbox errors for Linux S390 systems using an ICA
127 crypto coprocessor.
128 - sshd(8): Fix non-exploitable weakness in seccomp-bpf sandbox arg
129 inspection.
130 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sftp(1): Fix output truncation for various that
131 contain non-printable characters where the codeset in use is ASCII.

230openssh (1:7.4p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
231
232 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
233 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
234 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
235 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
236 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
237 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
238 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
239 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
240 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
241 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
242 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
243 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
244 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
245 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
246 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
247 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
248 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
249 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
250 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
251 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
252 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
253 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
254 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
255 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
256 (closes: #848714).
257 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
258 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
259 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
260 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
261 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
262 years) (closes: #848715).
263 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
264 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
265 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
266 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
267 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
268 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
269 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
270 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
271 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
272 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
273 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
274 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
275 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
276 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
277 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
278 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
279 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
280 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
281 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
282 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
283 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
284 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
285 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
286 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
287 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
288 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
289 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
290 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
291 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
292 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
293 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
294 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
295 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
296 way of restricting an account.
297 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
298 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
299 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
300 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
301 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
302 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
303 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
304 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
305 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
306 configuration error.
307 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
308 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
309 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
310 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
311 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
312 being offered.
313 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
314 that have no corresponding bare public key.
315 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
316 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
317 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
318 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
319 messages.
320 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
321 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
322 - sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before suspending
323 sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode correctly if
324 suspended during a password prompt.
325 - ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
326 prompt (LP: #1646813).
327 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-info
328 messages.
329 - sshd(8): Fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-sequence
330 NEWKEYS message.
331 - sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in the
332 server-sig-algs extension.
333 - sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
334 - sshd(8): More strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
335 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
336 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
337 configuration.
338 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
339 configuration examples.
340 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
341 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that
342 locale's unique handling of the letters 'i' and 'I' (LP: #1638338).
343 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
344 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
345 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
346 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
347 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
348 generated on new installations.
349 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
350 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
351 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
352 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
353 #419574, #848089):
354 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
355 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
356 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
357 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
358 I've missed some.
359 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
360 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
361 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
362 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
363 than "yes", per upstream.
364 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
365 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to
366 300 by default if BatchMode is set is Debian-specific (closes: #765630).
367 * Build gnome-ssh-askpass with GTK+ 3 (LP: #801187).
368 * When running regression tests under autopkgtest, use a non-root user
369 with passwordless sudo.

412 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
413 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
414 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
415 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
416 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
417 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
418 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
419 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
420 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
421 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
422 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
423 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
424 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
425 though no such leakage has been observed.
426 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
427 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
428 "jump hosts".
429 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
430 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.

441 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
442 from the server.
443 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
444 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
445 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
446 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
447 multiple authentication.
448 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
449 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
450 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
451 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
452 are enabled.

456 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
457 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
458 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
459 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf

566
567 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
568 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
569 default in ssh:
570 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
571 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
572 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
573 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
574 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
575 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
576 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
577 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
578 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
579 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
580 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
581 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
582 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
583 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
584 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
585 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
586 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
587 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
588 'confirm').
589 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
590 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
591 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
592 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
593 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
594 we might implement in the future.
595 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
596 certificates.
597 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
598 supported formats (closes: #811125).
599 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
600 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
601 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
602 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
603 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
604 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
605 default.
606 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
607 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
608 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
609 certificates instead of plain keys.
610 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
611 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
612 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
613 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate
614 recursive uploads (regression in OpenSSH 6.8; LP: #1553378).
615 * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs, and link to cgit rather than gitweb.
616 * Restore slogin symlinks for compatibility, although they were removed
617 upstream.

704 disabled by default at run-time. It may be re-enabled using the
705 instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
706 - Support for ssh-dss, ssh-dss-cert-* host and user keys is disabled by
707 default at run-time. These may be re-enabled using the instructions
708 at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
709 - Support for the legacy v00 cert format has been removed.
710 - The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has changed
711 from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
712 - PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
713 interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
714 hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
715 keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those were
716 enabled).
717 - ssh_config(5): Add PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes option to control which
718 public key types are available for user authentication.
719 - sshd_config(5): Add HostKeyAlgorithms option to control which public
720 key types are offered for host authentications.
721 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Extend Ciphers, MACs, KexAlgorithms,
722 HostKeyAlgorithms, PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and HostbasedKeyTypes
723 options to allow appending to the default set of algorithms instead of
724 replacing it. Options may now be prefixed with a '+' to append to the
725 default, e.g. "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss".
726 - sshd_config(5): PermitRootLogin now accepts an argument of
727 'prohibit-password' as a less-ambiguous synonym of 'without-
728 password'.
729 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatability workarounds for Cisco and more
730 PuTTY versions.
731 - Fix some omissions and errors in the PROTOCOL and PROTOCOL.mux
732 documentation relating to Unix domain socket forwarding.
733 - ssh(1): Improve the ssh(1) manual page to include a better description
734 of Unix domain socket forwarding (closes: #779068).
735 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Skip uninitialised PKCS#11 slots, fixing
736 failures to load keys when they are present.

739 - sshd(8): Clarify documentation for UseDNS option.

743 - sshd(8): OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in PermitRootLogin=
744 prohibit-password/without-password that could, depending on
745 compile-time configuration, permit password authentication to root
746 while preventing other forms of authentication. This problem was
747 reported by Mantas Mikulenas.
748 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.
749 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
750 - Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
751 memory, etc) in ssh(1) and ssh-keygen(1). Reported by Mateusz
752 Kocielski.
753 * Change "PermitRootLogin without-password" to the new preferred spelling
754 of "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password" in sshd_config, and update

786 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
787 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
788 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
789 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
790 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
791 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
792 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
793 from hex to base64.
794 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
795 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
796 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
797 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
798 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
799 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
800 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
801 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
802 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
803 option (default off).
804 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
805 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
806 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
807 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
808 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
809 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
810 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
811 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
812 authentication.
813 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
814 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
815 decryption.
816 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
817 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
818 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
819 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
820 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
821 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
822 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
823 all.
824 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
825 against MaxAuthTries.
826 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
827 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
828 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
829 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
830 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
831 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
832 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
833 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
834 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
835 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against

850 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
851 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
852 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
853 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
854 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
855 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
856 by Jann Horn.
857 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
858 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing

876 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
877 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes

903 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
904 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
905 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
906 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
907 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
908 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
909 host key fingerprints.
910 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual

916 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
917 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
918 to fix security issues:
919 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
920 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
921 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
922 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
923 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
924 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
925 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
926 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
927 Moritz Jodeit.
928 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
929 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
930 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
931 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
932 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
933 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
934 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
935 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
936 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
937 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
938 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
939 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
940 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
941 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
942 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
943 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

1001 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
1002 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
1003 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
1004 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
1005 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
1006 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
1007 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
1008 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
1009 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
1010 key types.
1011 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
1012 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
1013 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
1014 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
1015 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
1016 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
1017 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
1018 option.
1019 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
1020 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
1021 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
1022 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
1023 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
1024 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
1025 authentication success / failure messages.
1026 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
1027 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
1028 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
1029 #734553).
1030 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
1031 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
1032 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
1033 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
1034 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
1035 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
1036 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
1037 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
1038 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
1039 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
1040 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
1041 field.
1042 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
1043 simply a new enough dpkg.
1044 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
1045 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
1046 field.
1047 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
1048 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

1243 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
1244 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
1245 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
1246 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See
1247 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full

1252 login (closes: #734816).
1253 * Incorporate default path changes from shadow 1:4.0.18.1-8, removing
1254 /usr/bin/X11 (closes: #644521).
1255 * Generate ED25519 host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish
1256 to add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
1257 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run
1258 'ssh-keygen -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key -N "" -t ed25519'.

1276 - 6.3/6.3p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.3):
1277 + sftp(1): add support for resuming partial downloads using the
1278 "reget" command and on the sftp commandline or on the "get"
1279 commandline using the "-a" (append) option (closes: #158590).
1280 + ssh(1): add an "IgnoreUnknown" configuration option to selectively
1281 suppress errors arising from unknown configuration directives
1282 (closes: #436052).
1283 + sftp(1): update progressmeter when data is acknowledged, not when
1284 it's sent (partially addresses #708372).
1285 + ssh(1): do not fatally exit when attempting to cleanup multiplexing-
1286 created channels that are incompletely opened (closes: #651357).
1287 - 6.4/6.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.4):
1288 + CVE-2013-4548: sshd(8): fix a memory corruption problem triggered
1289 during rekeying when an AES-GCM cipher is selected (closes:
1290 #729029). Full details of the vulnerability are available at:
1291 http://www.openssh.com/txt/gcmrekey.adv
1292 * When running under Upstart, only consider the daemon started once it is
1293 ready to accept connections (by raising SIGSTOP at that point and using
1294 "expect stop").

1334 manually stop it so that it can be restarted under upstart. We do this
1335 near the end of the postinst, so it shouldn't result in any appreciable
1336 extra window where sshd is not running during upgrade.

1341
1342 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
1343 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
1344 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
1345 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
1346 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
1347 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
1348 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
1349 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
1350 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
1351 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
1352 the packaging.
1353 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
1354 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
1355 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
1356 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
1357 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
1358 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
1359 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
1360 openssh-server.postinst.
1361 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
1362 via dh_installdeb.
1363 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
1364 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
1365 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
1366 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
1367 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
1368 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
1369 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
1370 chroot.
1371 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
1372 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
1373 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
1374 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.
1375 * This removes the last of our uses of debconf (closes: #221531).
1376 * Use the pam_loginuid session module (thanks, Laurent Bigonville; closes:
1377 #677440, LP: #1067779).
1378 * Bracket our session stack with calls to pam_selinux close/open (thanks,
1379 Laurent Bigonville; closes: #679458).

1381 binary packages, as intended since 1:6.1p1-2.

1648 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.7):
1649 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
1650 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
1651 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
1652 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
1653 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
1654 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
1655 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
1656 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
1657 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
1658 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
1659 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
1660 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
1661 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
1662 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
1663 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
1664 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
1665 (closes: #594687).
1666 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
1667 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
1668 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
1669 it to be stripped off).
1670 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
1671 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
1672 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
1673 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
1674 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
1675 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
1676 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
1677 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
1678 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
1679 * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this
1680 SELinux build fix.

1710 Match blocks (closes: #549858).

1797
1798 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
1799 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
1800 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
1801 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
1802 or on the command-line.
1803 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
1804 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
1805 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
1806 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
1807 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
1808 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
1809 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
1810 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
1811 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
1812 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
1813 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
1814 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
1815 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
1816 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
1817 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
1818 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
1819 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
1820 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
1821 (closes: #270399, #428082).
1822 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
1823 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
1824 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
1825 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
1826
1827 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
1828 patches apply with offsets.
1829 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
1830 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
1831 around with uudecode.
1832 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
1833 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
1834 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
1835 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
1836 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
1837 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
1838 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
1839 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
1840 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
1841 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
1842 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
1843 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
1844 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
1845 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
1846 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
1847 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
1848 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
1849 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
1850 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
1851 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
1852 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
1853 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
1854 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
1855 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
1856 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
1857 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
1858 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
1859 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
1860 * Policy version 3.8.4:
1861 - Add a Homepage field.

1897 ...) when the agent refuses the constrained add request. This was a
1898 useful migration measure back in 2002 when constraints were new, but
1899 just adds risk now (LP: #209447).

1901 calls. This only applied to Linux 2.2, which it's no longer feasible to

1916 * Drop change from 1:3.6.1p2-5 to disable cmsg_type check for file
1917 descriptor passing when running on Linux 2.0. The previous stable
1918 release of Debian dropped support for Linux 2.4, let alone 2.0, so this

1932 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
1933 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
1934 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
1935 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
1936 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
1937 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
1938 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
1939 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
1940 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
1941 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
1942 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
1943 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the
1944 internal-sftp server (closes: #524423, LP: #362511).
1945 - Add AllowAgentForwarding to available Match keywords list (closes:

1947 - Make ssh(1) send the correct channel number for
1948 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
1949 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
1950 openssh-5.1.
1951 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
1952 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
1953 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).

1955 connections (closes: #507541).

2038 - packet_disconnect() on padding error, too. Should reduce the success
2039 probability for the CPNI-957037 Plaintext Recovery Attack to 2^-18.
2040 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there
2041 corresponds to sshd before running '/etc/init.d/ssh reload' from if-up
2042 script; SIGHUP is racy if called at boot before sshd has a chance to
2043 install its signal handler, but fortunately the pid file is written
2044 after that which lets us avoid the race (closes: #502444).
2045 * While the above is a valuable sanity-check, it turns out that it doesn't
2046 really fix the bug (thanks to Kevin Price for testing), so for the
2047 meantime we'll just use '/etc/init.d/ssh restart', even though it is
2048 unfortunately heavyweight.

2087
2088 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
2089 backported to 4.7p1:
2090 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
2091 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
2092 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
2093 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
2094 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
2095 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
2096 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
2097 inside the chroot environment.
2098 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
2099 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
2100 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
2101 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
2102 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
2103 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
2104 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
2105 also allow Protocol 1.
2106 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
2107 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
2108 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
2109 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
2110 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
2111 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
2112 embedded backslash escape sequences.
2113 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
2114 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
2115 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
2116 /bin/sh.
2117 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
2118 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
2119 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
2120 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
2121 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
2122 connections via a ProxyCommand.
2123 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
2124 #140828).
2125 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
2126 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
2127 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
2128 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
2129 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
2130 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
2131 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
2132 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
2133 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
2134 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
2135 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
2136 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
2137 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
2138 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
2139 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
2140 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
2141 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
2142 (LP: #119295).
2143 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
2144 chroot (LP: #237557).
2145 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
2146 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
2147 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
2148 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
2149 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
2150 rejection of changed host keys.
2151 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
2152 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
2153 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
2154 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
2155 matching.
2156 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
2157 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
2158 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
2159 source address and hostname) to test the application of
2160 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
2161 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
2162 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
2163 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
2164 connections only).
2165 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
2166 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
2167 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
2168 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
2169 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
2170 the server).
2171 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
2172 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
2173 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
2174 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
2175 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
2176 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
2177 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
2178 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
2179 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
2180 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
2181 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
2182 hijacked.
2183 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
2184 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
2185 fingerprint.
2186 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
2187 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
2188 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
2189 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
2190 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
2191 forwarder.
2192 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
2193 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
2194 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
2195 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
2196 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
2197 address and give up if that failed.
2198 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
2199 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
2200 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
2201 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
2202 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
2203 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
2204 from 768 to 1024 bits.
2205 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
2206 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
2207 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
2208 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
2209 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
2210 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
2211 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
2212 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
2213 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
2214 blocks.
2215 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
2216 that are available to a primary connection.
2217 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
2218 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
2219 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
2220 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
2221 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
2222 server runs out of file descriptors).
2223 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
2224 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
2225 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
2226 platforms.
2227 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
2228 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
2229 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
2230 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
2231 targets).
2232 * Merge from Ubuntu:
2233 - Add 'status' action to openssh-server init script, requiring lsb-base
2234 (>= 3.2-13) (thanks, Dustin Kirkland).
2235 * debconf template translations:

2468 * New upstream release (closes: #453367).
2469 - CVE-2007-4752: Prevent ssh(1) from using a trusted X11 cookie if
2470 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
2471 (closes: #444738).
2472 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
2473 installations are unchanged.
2474 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
2475 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
2476 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
2477 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
2478 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
2479 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
2480 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
2481 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
2482 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
2483 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
2484 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
2485 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
2486 without passing the full exit status.
2487 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
2488 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
2489 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
2490 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
2491 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
2492 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
2493 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
2494 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
2495 mechanisms.
2496 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
2497 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
2498 into the client.
2499 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
2500 have been established.
2501 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
2502 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
2503 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
2504 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
2505 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed
2506 (closes: #405041).
2507 - Manual page datestamps updated (closes: #433181).
2508 * Install the OpenSSH FAQ in /usr/share/doc/openssh-client.
2509 - Includes documentation on copying files with colons using scp
2510 (closes: #303453).

2514 * Refactor debian/rules configure and make invocations to make development
2515 easier.
2516 * Remove the hideously old /etc/ssh/primes on upgrade (closes: #123013).
2517 * Update moduli(5) to revision 1.11 from OpenBSD CVS.
2518 * Document the non-default options we set as standard in ssh_config(5) and

2520 * Recode LICENCE to UTF-8 when concatenating it to debian/copyright.

2522 .desktop file is intentionally not installed (see 1:3.8.1p1-10).

2618
2619 * New upstream release (closes: #395507, #397961, #420035). Important
2620 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
2621 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.4):
2622 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
2623 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
2624 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
2625 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
2626 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
2627 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
2628 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
2629 be added in future releases.
2630 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
2631 final hash of SHA256.
2632 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
2633 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
2634 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
2635 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
2636 option.
2637 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
2638 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
2639 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
2640 establish.
2641 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
2642 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
2643 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
2644 (closes: #50612).
2645 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
2646 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
2647 established.
2648 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
2649 specification of command-line arguments.
2650 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
2651 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
2652 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
2653 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
2654 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
2655 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
2656 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
2657 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
2658 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
2659 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
2660 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
2661 liberal (closes: #103677).
2662 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
2663 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
2664 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
2665 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
2666 in sshd_config.
2667 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
2668 progress meter (closes: #257524).
2669 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
2670 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
2671 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2672 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
2673 install ChangeLog.gssapi.
2674 * Build the .deb --with-ssl-engine (closes: #408027, LP: #119295).
2675 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
2676 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).
2677 * Move init script start links to S16, move rc1 stop link to K84, and
2678 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
2679 closes: #122188).
2680 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
2681 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
2682 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
2683 * Merge from Ubuntu:
2684 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
2685 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
2686 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
2687 the default path.
2688 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
2689 openssh-client dependency.

2763 GSSAPICleanupCredentials. Mark GSSUseSessionCCache and
2764 GSSAPIUseSessionCredCache as known-but-unsupported options, and migrate
2765 away from them on upgrade.
2766 * It turns out that the people who told me that removing a conffile in the
2767 preinst was sufficient to have dpkg replace it without prompting when
2768 moving a conffile between packages were very much mistaken. As far as I
2769 can tell, the only way to do this reliably is to write out the desired
2770 new text of the conffile in the preinst. This is gross, and requires
2771 shipping the text of all conffiles in the preinst too, but there's
2772 nothing for it. Fortunately this nonsense is only required for smooth

2839 time expired (closes: #389995).
2840 - CVE-2006-5051: Fix an unsafe signal hander reported by Mark Dowd. The
2841 signal handler was vulnerable to a race condition that could be
2842 exploited to perform a pre-authentication denial of service. On
2843 portable OpenSSH, this vulnerability could theoretically lead to

2889 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
2890 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
2891 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
2892 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
2893 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
2894 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
2895 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
2896 scp (closes: #349645).
2897 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
2898 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
2899 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
2900 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
2901 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
2902 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
2903 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
2904 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
2905 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
2906 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
2907 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
2908 background at the time of session exit.
2909 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
2910 without arguments (closes: #114894).
2911 - Fix timing variance for valid vs. invalid accounts when attempting
2912 Kerberos authentication.
2913 - Ensure that ssh always returns code 255 on internal error
2914 (closes: #259865).
2915 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
2916 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
2917 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
2918 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:
2919 https://launchpad.net/bugs/25528).
2920 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
2921 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
2922 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
2923 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
2924 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
2925 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
2926 - Many manual page improvements.
2927 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
2928 possible crashes.
2929 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2930 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.3p2-gsskex-20060223.patch
2931 (closes: #352042).
2932 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
2933 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
2934 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
2935 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
2936 (closes: #349896).
2937 * Rephrase ssh/new_config and ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen debconf
2938 templates to make boolean short descriptions end with a question mark
2939 and to avoid use of the first person.

3037 port forwardings when no listen address was explicitly specified
3038 (closes: #326065).

3040 credentials. This code is only built in openssh-krb5, not openssh, but
3041 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
3042 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
3043 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
3044 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
3045 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable
3046 compression on the client or set "Compression yes" (losing this

3173 * New upstream release.
3174 - Port-forwarding specifications now take optional bind addresses, and
3175 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
3176 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
3177 (closes: #87253, #192206).
3178 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
3179 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
3180 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
3181 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
3182 (closes: #287013).
3183 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
3184 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
3185 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
3186 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
3187 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
3188 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
3189 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
3190 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
3191 closes: #296487).
3192 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
3193 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
3194 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
3195 - Link with -lcrypt.
3196 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
3197 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
3198 satisfy build-dependencies.
3199 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
3200 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
3201 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
3202 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
3203 (closes: #307069).
3204 * debconf template translations:
3205 - Update Czech (thanks, Miroslav Kure; closes: #298744).
3206 - Update Finnish (thanks, Matti Pöllä; closes: #303787).
3207 - Synchronise Spanish with sarge branch (thanks, Javier
3208 Fernández-Sanguino Peña; closes: #298536).

3312 * Split the ssh binary package into openssh-client and openssh-server
3313 (closes: #39741). openssh-server depends on openssh-client for some
3314 common functionality; it didn't seem worth creating yet another package
3315 for this. openssh-client is priority standard, openssh-server optional.
3316 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
3317 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends
3318 on it.
3319 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
3320 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
3321 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
3322 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
3323 and ssh/user_environment_tell.
3324 * Add a heuristic to try to make sure the sshd_config upgrade to >= 3.7
3325 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
3326 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
3327 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing
3328 configurations, but the right approach is now to remove the
3329 openssh-server package if you don't want to run the server. Add a NEWS
3330 item to that effect.

3499 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
3500 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
3501 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
3502 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
3503 syslog (closes: #171673).
3504 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
3505 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
3506 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
3507 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
3508 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
3509 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
3510 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
3511 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
3512 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
3513 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
3514 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
3515 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
3516 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
3517 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
3518 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
3519 ssh_config(5) for details.
3520 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
3521 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
3522 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
3523 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
3524 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.

3695 the whole thing, and remove the directory if that leaves it empty

3697 * ssh has depended on debconf for some time now with no complaints, so:
3698 - Simplify the postinst by relying on debconf being present. (The absent
3699 case was buggy anyway.)
3700 - Get rid of "if you have not installed debconf" text in README.Debian,
3701 and generally update the "/usr/bin/ssh not SUID" entry.
3702 * More README.Debian work:
3703 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
3704 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
3705 should probably be sorted by version somehow.
3706 - Document X11UseLocalhost under "X11 Forwarding" (closes: #150913).

3726 of other merged bugs).
3727 - ssh-copy-id prints usage when run without arguments (closes: #71376).

3729 - sshd writes to utmp's ut_addr_v6 field in IPv6 mode (closes: #167867).

3754 previously it was completely wrong anyway.
3755 * Find out whether /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run exists and set the debconf
3756 question's default using that information, rather than using debconf as
3757 a registry. Other solutions may be better in the long run, but this is
3758 at least correct (thanks, Matthew Woodcraft; closes: #84725).
3759 * Stop using pam_lastlog, as it doesn't currently work well as a session
3760 module when privilege separation is enabled; it can usually read
3761 /var/log/lastlog but can't write to it. Instead, just use sshd's
3762 built-in support, already enabled by default (closes: #151297, #169938).

3819 are deprecated for security reasons and will eventually go away. For
3820 now they can be re-enabled by setting 'PermitUserEnvironment yes' in
3821 sshd_config.
3822 - ssh-agent is installed setgid to prevent ptrace() attacks. The group
3823 actually doesn't matter, as it drops privileges immediately, but to
3824 avoid confusion the postinst creates a new 'ssh' group for it.
3825 * Obsolete patches:

4621 the old answer, config didn't force asking it, and preinst always

4625 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
4626 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
