32 * Be more specific about what files to install in openssh-tests, to avoid
33 installing a symlink into the build tree.
34 * Re-export debian/upstream/signing-key.asc without extra signatures.
35 * Restore direct test dependencies on openssl, putty-tools, and
36 python-twisted-conch; these are really only indirect dependencies via
37 openssh-tests, but including them means that this package will be
38 retested when they change.

46 * Drop "set -x" verbosity from the autopkgtest; I think we can do without
47 this in most cases nowadays.
48 * Add an openssh-tests binary package containing enough files to run the
49 upstream regression tests. This allows autopkgtest to run more
50 efficiently, as it doesn't have to build part of the source tree again.

54openssh (1:7.9p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
55
56 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.9):
57 - ssh(1), sshd(8): allow most port numbers to be specified using service
58 names from getservbyname(3) (typically /etc/services; closes:
59 #177406).
60 - ssh(1): allow the IdentityAgent configuration directive to accept
61 environment variable names. This supports the use of multiple agent
62 sockets without needing to use fixed paths.
63 - sshd(8): support signalling sessions via the SSH protocol. A limited
64 subset of signals is supported and only for login or command sessions
65 (i.e. not subsystems) that were not subject to a forced command via
66 authorized_keys or sshd_config.
67 - ssh(1): support "ssh -Q sig" to list supported signature options.
68 Also "ssh -Q help" to show the full set of supported queries.
69 - ssh(1), sshd(8): add a CASignatureAlgorithms option for the client and
70 server configs to allow control over which signature formats are
71 allowed for CAs to sign certificates. For example, this allows
72 banning CAs that sign certificates using the RSA-SHA1 signature
73 algorithm.
74 - sshd(8), ssh-keygen(1): allow key revocation lists (KRLs) to revoke
75 keys specified by SHA256 hash.
76 - ssh-keygen(1): allow creation of key revocation lists directly from
77 base64-encoded SHA256 fingerprints. This supports revoking keys using
78 only the information contained in sshd(8) authentication log messages.
79 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): avoid spurious "invalid format" errors when
80 attempting to load PEM private keys while using an incorrect
81 passphrase.
82 - sshd(8): when a channel closed message is received from a client,
83 close the stderr file descriptor at the same time stdout is closed.
84 This avoids stuck processes if they were waiting for stderr to close
85 and were insensitive to stdin/out closing (closes: #844494).
86 - ssh(1): allow ForwardX11Timeout=0 to disable the untrusted X11
87 forwarding timeout and support X11 forwarding indefinitely.
88 Previously the behaviour of ForwardX11Timeout=0 was undefined.
89 - sshd(8): when compiled with GSSAPI support, cache supported method
90 OIDs regardless of whether GSSAPI authentication is enabled in the
91 main section of sshd_config. This avoids sandbox violations if GSSAPI
92 authentication was later enabled in a Match block.
93 - sshd(8): do not fail closed when configured with a text key revocation
94 list that contains a too-short key.
95 - ssh(1): treat connections with ProxyJump specified the same as ones
96 with a ProxyCommand set with regards to hostname canonicalisation
97 (i.e. don't try to canonicalise the hostname unless
98 CanonicalizeHostname is set to 'always').
99 - ssh(1): fix regression in OpenSSH 7.8 that could prevent public-key
100 authentication using certificates hosted in a ssh-agent(1) or against
101 sshd(8) from OpenSSH <7.8 (LP: #1790963).
102 - All: support building against the openssl-1.1 API (releases 1.1.0g and
103 later). The openssl-1.0 API will remain supported at least until
104 OpenSSL terminates security patch support for that API version
105 (closes: #828475).
106 - sshd(8): allow the futex(2) syscall in the Linux seccomp sandbox;
107 apparently required by some glibc/OpenSSL combinations.
108 * Remove dh_builddeb override to use xz compression; this has been the
109 default since dpkg 1.17.0.
110 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/default.mk.
111 * Remove /etc/network/if-up.d/openssh-server, as it causes more problems
112 than it solves (thanks, Christian Ehrhardt, Andreas Hasenack, and David
113 Britton; closes: #789532, LP: #1037738, #1674330, #1718227). Add an
114 "if-up hook removed" section to README.Debian documenting the corner
115 case that may need configuration adjustments.

120
121 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.8, closes:
122 #907534):
123 - ssh-keygen(1): Write OpenSSH format private keys by default instead of
124 using OpenSSL's PEM format (closes: #905407). The OpenSSH format,
125 supported in OpenSSH releases since 2014 and described in the
126 PROTOCOL.key file in the source distribution, offers substantially
127 better protection against offline password guessing and supports key
128 comments in private keys. If necessary, it is possible to write old
129 PEM-style keys by adding "-m PEM" to ssh-keygen's arguments when
130 generating or updating a key.
131 - sshd(8): Remove internal support for S/Key multiple factor
132 authentication. S/Key may still be used via PAM or BSD auth.
133 - ssh(1): Remove vestigial support for running ssh(1) as setuid. This
134 used to be required for hostbased authentication and the (long gone)
135 rhosts-style authentication, but has not been necessary for a long
136 time. Attempting to execute ssh as a setuid binary, or with uid !=
137 effective uid will now yield a fatal error at runtime.
138 - sshd(8): The semantics of PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and the similar
139 HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes options have changed. These now specify
140 signature algorithms that are accepted for their respective
141 authentication mechanism, where previously they specified accepted key
142 types. This distinction matters when using the RSA/SHA2 signature
143 algorithms "rsa-sha2-256", "rsa-sha2-512" and their certificate
144 counterparts. Configurations that override these options but omit
145 these algorithm names may cause unexpected authentication failures (no
146 action is required for configurations that accept the default for
147 these options).
148 - sshd(8): The precedence of session environment variables has changed.
149 ~/.ssh/environment and environment="..." options in authorized_keys
150 files can no longer override SSH_* variables set implicitly by sshd.
151 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): The default IPQoS used by ssh/sshd has changed. They
152 will now use DSCP AF21 for interactive traffic and CS1 for bulk. For
153 a detailed rationale, please see the commit message:
154 https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/src/usr.bin/ssh/readconf.c#rev1.284
155 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Add new signature algorithms "rsa-sha2-256-cert-
156 v01@openssh.com" and "rsa-sha2-512-cert-v01@openssh.com" to explicitly
157 force use of RSA/SHA2 signatures in authentication.
158 - sshd(8): Extend the PermitUserEnvironment option to accept a whitelist
159 of environment variable names in addition to global "yes" or "no"
160 settings.
161 - sshd(8): Add a PermitListen directive to sshd_config(5) and a
162 corresponding permitlisten= authorized_keys option that control which
163 listen addresses and port numbers may be used by remote forwarding
164 (ssh -R ...).
165 - sshd(8): Add some countermeasures against timing attacks used for
166 account validation/enumeration. sshd will enforce a minimum time or
167 each failed authentication attempt consisting of a global 5ms minimum
168 plus an additional per-user 0-4ms delay derived from a host secret.
169 - sshd(8): Add a SetEnv directive to allow an administrator to
170 explicitly specify environment variables in sshd_config. Variables
171 set by SetEnv override the default and client-specified environment.
172 - ssh(1): Add a SetEnv directive to request that the server sets an
173 environment variable in the session. Similar to the existing SendEnv
174 option, these variables are set subject to server configuration.
175 - ssh(1): Allow "SendEnv -PATTERN" to clear environment variables
176 previously marked for sending to the server (closes: #573316).
177 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Make UID available as a %-expansion everywhere that
178 the username is available currently.
179 - ssh(1): Allow setting ProxyJump=none to disable ProxyJump
180 functionality.
181 - sshd(8): Avoid observable differences in request parsing that could be
182 used to determine whether a target user is valid.
183 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix some memory leaks.
184 - ssh(1): Fix a pwent clobber (introduced in openssh-7.7) that could
185 occur during key loading, manifesting as crash on some platforms.
186 - sshd_config(5): Clarify documentation for AuthenticationMethods
187 option.
188 - ssh(1): Ensure that the public key algorithm sent in a public key
189 SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_REQUEST matches the content of the signature blob.
190 Previously, these could be inconsistent when a legacy or non-OpenSSH
191 ssh-agent returned a RSA/SHA1 signature when asked to make a RSA/SHA2
192 signature.
193 - sshd(8): Fix failures to read authorized_keys caused by faulty
194 supplemental group caching.
195 - scp(1): Apply umask to directories, fixing potential mkdir/chmod race
196 when copying directory trees.
197 - ssh-keygen(1): Return correct exit code when searching for and hashing
198 known_hosts entries in a single operation.
199 - ssh(1): Prefer the ssh binary pointed to via argv[0] to $PATH when
200 re-executing ssh for ProxyJump.
201 - sshd(8): Do not ban PTY allocation when a sshd session is restricted
202 because the user password is expired as it breaks password change
203 dialog.
204 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix error reporting from select() failures.
205 - ssh(1): Improve documentation for -w (tunnel) flag, emphasising that
206 -w implicitly sets Tunnel=point-to-point.
207 - ssh-agent(1): Implement EMFILE mitigation for ssh-agent. ssh-agent
208 will no longer spin when its file descriptor limit is exceeded.
209 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Disable SSH2_MSG_DEBUG messages for Twisted Conch
210 clients. Twisted Conch versions that lack a version number in their
211 identification strings will mishandle these messages when running on
212 Python 2.x (https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9422).
213 - sftp(1): Notify user immediately when underlying ssh process dies
214 expectedly.
215 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix tunnel forwarding; regression in 7.7 release.
216 - ssh-agent(1): Don't kill ssh-agent's listening socket entirely if it
217 fails to accept(2) a connection.
218 - ssh(1): Add some missing options in the configuration dump output (ssh
219 -G).
220 - sshd(8): Expose details of completed authentication to PAM auth
221 modules via SSH_AUTH_INFO_0 in the PAM environment.
222 * Switch debian/watch to HTTPS.
223 * Temporarily work around https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9515 in
224 regression tests.

259openssh (1:7.7p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
260
261 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.7):
262 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Drop compatibility support for some very old SSH
263 implementations, including ssh.com <=2.* and OpenSSH <= 3.*. These
264 versions were all released in or before 2001 and predate the final SSH
265 RFCs. The support in question isn't necessary for RFC-compliant SSH
266 implementations.
267 - Add experimental support for PQC XMSS keys (Extended Hash-Based
268 Signatures).
269 - sshd(8): Add an "rdomain" criterion for the sshd_config Match keyword
270 to allow conditional configuration that depends on which routing
271 domain a connection was received on.
272 - sshd_config(5): Add an optional rdomain qualifier to the ListenAddress
273 directive to allow listening on different routing domains.
274 - sshd(8): Add "expiry-time" option for authorized_keys files to allow
275 for expiring keys.
276 - ssh(1): Add a BindInterface option to allow binding the outgoing
277 connection to an interface's address (basically a more usable
278 BindAddress; closes: #289592).
279 - ssh(1): Expose device allocated for tun/tap forwarding via a new %T
280 expansion for LocalCommand. This allows LocalCommand to be used to
281 prepare the interface.
282 - sshd(8): Expose the device allocated for tun/tap forwarding via a new
283 SSH_TUNNEL environment variable. This allows automatic setup of the
284 interface and surrounding network configuration automatically on the
285 server.
286 - ssh(1)/scp(1)/sftp(1): Add URI support to ssh, sftp and scp, e.g.
287 ssh://user@host or sftp://user@host/path. Additional connection
288 parameters described in draft-ietf-secsh-scp-sftp-ssh-uri-04 are not
289 implemented since the ssh fingerprint format in the draft uses the
290 deprecated MD5 hash with no way to specify any other algorithm.
291 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow certificate validity intervals that specify only
292 a start or stop time (instead of both or neither).
293 - sftp(1): Allow "cd" and "lcd" commands with no explicit path argument.
294 lcd will change to the local user's home directory as usual. cd will
295 change to the starting directory for session (because the protocol
296 offers no way to obtain the remote user's home directory).
297 - sshd(8): When doing a config test with sshd -T, only require the
298 attributes that are actually used in Match criteria rather than (an
299 incomplete list of) all criteria.
300 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): More strictly check signature types during key
301 exchange against what was negotiated. Prevents downgrade of RSA
302 signatures made with SHA-256/512 to SHA-1.
303 - sshd(8): Fix support for client that advertise a protocol version of
304 "1.99" (indicating that they are prepared to accept both SSHv1 and
305 SSHv2). This was broken in OpenSSH 7.6 during the removal of SSHv1
306 support.
307 - ssh(1): Warn when the agent returns a ssh-rsa (SHA1) signature when a
308 rsa-sha2-256/512 signature was requested. This condition is possible
309 when an old or non-OpenSSH agent is in use.
310 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression introduced in 7.6 that caused ssh-agent
311 to fatally exit if presented an invalid signature request message.
312 - sshd_config(5): Accept yes/no flag options case-insensitively, as has
313 been the case in ssh_config(5) for a long time (LP: #1656557).
314 - ssh(1): Improve error reporting for failures during connection. Under
315 some circumstances misleading errors were being shown.
316 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add -D option to allow printing of results directly in
317 SSHFP format.
318 - ssh(1): Compatibility fix for some servers that erroneously drop the
319 connection when the IUTF8 (RFC8160) option is sent.
320 - scp(1): Disable RemoteCommand and RequestTTY in the ssh session
321 started by scp (sftp was already doing this).
322 - ssh-keygen(1): Refuse to create a certificate with an unusable number
323 of principals.
324 - ssh-keygen(1): Fatally exit if ssh-keygen is unable to write all the
325 public key during key generation. Previously it would silently ignore
326 errors writing the comment and terminating newline.
327 - ssh(1): Do not modify hostname arguments that are addresses by
328 automatically forcing them to lower-case. Instead canonicalise them
329 jo resolve ambiguities (e.g. ::0001 => ::1) before they are matched
330 against known_hosts.
331 - ssh(1): Don't accept junk after "yes" or "no" responses to hostkey
332 prompts.
333 - sftp(1): Have sftp print a warning about shell cleanliness when
334 decoding the first packet fails, which is usually caused by shells
335 polluting stdout of non-interactive startups.
336 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Switch timers in packet code from using wall-clock
337 time to monotonic time, allowing the packet layer to better function
338 over a clock step and avoiding possible integer overflows during
339 steps.
340 - sshd(8): Correctly detect MIPS ABI in use at configure time. Fixes
341 sandbox violations on some environments.
342 - Build and link with "retpoline" flags when available to mitigate the
343 "branch target injection" style (variant 2) of the Spectre
344 branch-prediction vulnerability.

393 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.6):
394 - CVE-2017-15906: sftp-server(8): In read-only mode, sftp-server was
395 incorrectly permitting creation of zero-length files. Reported by
396 Michal Zalewski.
397 - ssh(1): Delete SSH protocol version 1 support, associated
398 configuration options and documentation (LP: #1584321).
399 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove support for the hmac-ripemd160 MAC.
400 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove support for the arcfour, blowfish and CAST
401 ciphers.
402 - Refuse RSA keys <1024 bits in length and improve reporting for keys
403 that do not meet this requirement.
404 - ssh(1): Do not offer CBC ciphers by default.
405 - ssh(1): Add RemoteCommand option to specify a command in the ssh
406 config file instead of giving it on the client's command line. This
407 allows the configuration file to specify the command that will be
408 executed on the remote host.
409 - sshd(8): Add ExposeAuthInfo option that enables writing details of the
410 authentication methods used (including public keys where applicable)
411 to a file that is exposed via a $SSH_USER_AUTH environment variable in
412 the subsequent session.
413 - ssh(1): Add support for reverse dynamic forwarding. In this mode, ssh
414 will act as a SOCKS4/5 proxy and forward connections to destinations
415 requested by the remote SOCKS client. This mode is requested using
416 extended syntax for the -R and RemoteForward options and, because it
417 is implemented solely at the client, does not require the server be
418 updated to be supported.
419 - sshd(8): Allow LogLevel directive in sshd_config Match blocks.
420 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow inclusion of arbitrary string or flag certificate
421 extensions and critical options.
422 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to use a key held in ssh-agent as a CA
423 when signing certificates.
424 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Allow IPQoS=none in ssh/sshd to not set an explicit
425 ToS/DSCP value and just use the operating system default.
426 - ssh-add(1): Add -q option to make ssh-add quiet on success.
427 - ssh(1): Expand the StrictHostKeyChecking option with two new settings.
428 The first "accept-new" will automatically accept hitherto-unseen keys
429 but will refuse connections for changed or invalid hostkeys. This is
430 a safer subset of the current behaviour of StrictHostKeyChecking=no.
431 The second setting "off", is a synonym for the current behaviour of
432 StrictHostKeyChecking=no: accept new host keys, and continue
433 connection for hosts with incorrect hostkeys. A future release will
434 change the meaning of StrictHostKeyChecking=no to the behaviour of
435 "accept-new".
436 - ssh(1): Add SyslogFacility option to ssh(1) matching the equivalent
437 option in sshd(8).
438 - ssh(1): Use HostKeyAlias if specified instead of hostname for matching
439 host certificate principal names.
440 - sftp(1): Implement sorting for globbed ls.
441 - ssh(1): Add a user@host prefix to client's "Permission denied"
442 messages, useful in particular when using "stacked" connections (e.g.
443 ssh -J) where it's not clear which host is denying.
444 - ssh(1): Accept unknown EXT_INFO extension values that contain \0
445 characters. These are legal, but would previously cause fatal
446 connection errors if received.
447 - sftp(1): Print '?' instead of incorrect link count (that the protocol
448 doesn't provide) for remote listings.
449 - ssh(1): Return failure rather than fatal() for more cases during
450 session multiplexing negotiations. Causes the session to fall back to
451 a non-mux connection if they occur.
452 - ssh(1): Mention that the server may send debug messages to explain
453 public key authentication problems under some circumstances.
454 - Translate OpenSSL error codes to better report incorrect passphrase
455 errors when loading private keys.
456 - sshd(8): Adjust compatibility patterns for WinSCP to correctly
457 identify versions that implement only the legacy DH group exchange
458 scheme (closes: #877800).
459 - ssh(1): Print the "Killed by signal 1" message only at LogLevel
460 verbose so that it is not shown at the default level; prevents it from
461 appearing during ssh -J and equivalent ProxyCommand configs.
462 - ssh-keygen(1): When generating all hostkeys (ssh-keygen -A), clobber
463 existing keys if they exist but are zero length. Zero-length keys
464 could previously be made if ssh-keygen failed or was interrupted part
465 way through generating them.
466 - ssh-keyscan(1): Avoid double-close() on file descriptors.
467 - sshd(8): Avoid reliance on shared use of pointers shared between
468 monitor and child sshd processes.
469 - sshd_config(8): Document available AuthenticationMethods.
470 - ssh(1): Avoid truncation in some login prompts.
471 - ssh(1): Make "--" before the hostname terminate argument processing
472 after the hostname too (closes: #873201).
473 - ssh-keygen(1): Switch from aes256-cbc to aes256-ctr for encrypting
474 new-style private keys.
475 - ssh(1): Warn and do not attempt to use keys when the public and
476 private halves do not match.
477 - sftp(1): Don't print verbose error message when ssh disconnects from
478 under sftp.
479 - sshd(8): Fix keepalive scheduling problem: prevent activity on a
480 forwarded port from preventing the keepalive from being sent.
481 - sshd(8): When started without root privileges, don't require the
482 privilege separation user or path to exist.
483 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Correctness fix for channels implementation: accept
484 channel IDs greater than 0x7FFFFFFF.
485 - sshd(8): Expose list of completed authentication methods to PAM via
486 the SSH_AUTH_INFO_0 PAM environment variable.
487 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix several problems in the tun/tap forwarding code,
488 mostly to do with host/network byte order confusion.
489 - sshd(8): Avoid Linux seccomp violations on ppc64le over the socketcall
490 syscall.
491 * Build-depend on debhelper (>= 9.20160709~) rather than dh-systemd.
492 * Change priorities of ssh and ssh-krb5 binary packages to optional, since
493 "Priority: extra" is now deprecated.
494 * Use HTTPS form of copyright-format URL.
495 * Adjust "Running sshd from inittab" instructions in README.Debian to

498 * Adjust "Per-connection sshd instances with systemd" instructions in

596
597 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.5):
598 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle
599 countermeasures that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH
600 7.3 to proceed. Note that the OpenSSH client disables CBC ciphers by
601 default, sshd offers them as lowest-preference options and will remove
602 them by default entirely in the next release.
603 - This release deprecates the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation option,
604 thereby making privilege separation mandatory (closes: #407754).
605 - The format of several log messages emitted by the packet code has
606 changed to include additional information about the user and their
607 authentication state. Software that monitors ssh/sshd logs may need
608 to account for these changes.
609 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
610 algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
611 - sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start messages
612 are sent out of sequence.
613 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in configuration
614 files.
615 - sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the server-sig-algs
616 extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were not being correctly
617 advertised.
618 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
619 known_hosts processing.
620 - ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
621 file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
622 - ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option, accept
623 RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype. Previously,
624 ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-* methods were
625 enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa method.
626 - ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file lines.
627 - Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat and
628 FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor leaks in
629 error paths.
630 - ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
631 "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
632 - ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
633 line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat square
634 bracket characters specially.
635 - Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol 1
636 support from the server, including the server banner string being
637 incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing error
638 messages from ssh-keyscan, and a segfault in sshd if protocol v.1 was
639 enabled for the client and sshd_config contained references to legacy
640 keys.
641 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
642 - sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server returns
643 zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
644 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
645 encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
646 - ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
647 printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
648 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
649 feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
650 - sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
651 AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
652 matched early.
653 - ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
654 cancellation.
655 - ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files can't
656 be opened.
657 - sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token in
658 AuthorizedKeysCommand.
659 - sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM.
660 - ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and common
661 32-bit compatibility library directories.
662 - sftp-client(1): Fix non-exploitable integer overflow in SSH2_FXP_NAME
663 response handling.
664 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression in 7.4 of deleting PKCS#11-hosted keys.
665 It was not possible to delete them except by specifying their full
666 physical path.
667 - sshd(8): Avoid sandbox errors for Linux S390 systems using an ICA
668 crypto coprocessor.
669 - sshd(8): Fix non-exploitable weakness in seccomp-bpf sandbox arg
670 inspection.
671 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sftp(1): Fix output truncation for various that
672 contain non-printable characters where the codeset in use is ASCII.

771openssh (1:7.4p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
772
773 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
774 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
775 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
776 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
777 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
778 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
779 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
780 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
781 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
782 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
783 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
784 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
785 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
786 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
787 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
788 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
789 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
790 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
791 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
792 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
793 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
794 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
795 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
796 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
797 (closes: #848714).
798 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
799 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
800 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
801 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
802 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
803 years) (closes: #848715).
804 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
805 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
806 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
807 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
808 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
809 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
810 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
811 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
812 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
813 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
814 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
815 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
816 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
817 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
818 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
819 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
820 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
821 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
822 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
823 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
824 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
825 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
826 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
827 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
828 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
829 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
830 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
831 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
832 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
833 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
834 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
835 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
836 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
837 way of restricting an account.
838 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
839 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
840 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
841 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
842 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
843 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
844 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
845 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
846 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
847 configuration error.
848 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
849 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
850 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
851 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
852 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
853 being offered.
854 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
855 that have no corresponding bare public key.
856 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
857 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
858 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
859 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
860 messages.
861 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
862 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.

876 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
877 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
878 configuration.
879 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
880 configuration examples.
881 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
882 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that

884 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
885 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
886 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
887 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
888 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
889 generated on new installations.
890 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
891 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
892 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
893 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
894 #419574, #848089):
895 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
896 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
897 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
898 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
899 I've missed some.
900 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
901 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
902 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
903 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
904 than "yes", per upstream.
905 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
906 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to
907 300 by default if BatchMode is set is Debian-specific (closes: #765630).
908 * Build gnome-ssh-askpass with GTK+ 3 (LP: #801187).
909 * When running regression tests under autopkgtest, use a non-root user
910 with passwordless sudo.

952
953 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
954 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
955 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
956 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
957 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
958 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
959 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
960 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
961 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
962 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
963 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
964 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
965 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
966 though no such leakage has been observed.
967 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
968 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
969 "jump hosts".
970 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
971 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.
972 - ssh(1): Allow ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings to be
973 optionally overridden when using ssh -W.
974 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Implement support for the IUTF8 terminal mode as per
975 draft-sgtatham-secsh-iutf8-00 (closes: #337041, LP: #394570).
976 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for additional fixed Diffie-Hellman 2K,
977 4K and 8K groups from draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2-03.
978 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sshd(8): Support SHA256 and SHA512 RSA
979 signatures in certificates.
980 - ssh(1): Add an Include directive for ssh_config(5) files (closes:
981 #536031).
982 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
983 from the server.
984 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
985 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
986 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
987 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
988 multiple authentication.
989 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
990 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
991 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
992 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
993 are enabled.
994 - sshd(8): Remove fallback from moduli to obsolete "primes" file that
995 was deprecated in 2001 (LP: #1528251).
996 - sshd_config(5): Correct description of UseDNS: it affects ssh hostname
997 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
998 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
999 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
1000 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf
1001 sandbox.
1002 - scp(1): Respect the local user's LC_CTYPE locale (closes: #396295).
1003 - Take character display widths into account for the progressmeter
1004 (closes: #407088).

1108 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
1109 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
1110 default in ssh:
1111 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
1112 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
1113 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
1114 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
1115 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
1116 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
1117 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
1118 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
1119 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
1120 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
1121 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
1122 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
1123 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
1124 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
1125 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
1126 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
1127 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
1128 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
1129 'confirm').
1130 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
1131 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
1132 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
1133 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
1134 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
1135 we might implement in the future.
1136 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
1137 certificates.
1138 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
1139 supported formats (closes: #811125).
1140 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
1141 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
1142 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
1143 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
1144 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
1145 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
1146 default.
1147 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
1148 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
1149 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
1150 certificates instead of plain keys.
1151 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
1152 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
1153 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
1154 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate
1155 recursive uploads (regression in OpenSSH 6.8; LP: #1553378).
1156 * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs, and link to cgit rather than gitweb.
1157 * Restore slogin symlinks for compatibility, although they were removed
1158 upstream.

1251 - The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has changed
1252 from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
1253 - PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
1254 interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
1255 hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
1256 keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those were
1257 enabled).
1258 - ssh_config(5): Add PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes option to control which
1259 public key types are available for user authentication.
1260 - sshd_config(5): Add HostKeyAlgorithms option to control which public
1261 key types are offered for host authentications.
1262 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Extend Ciphers, MACs, KexAlgorithms,
1263 HostKeyAlgorithms, PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and HostbasedKeyTypes
1264 options to allow appending to the default set of algorithms instead of
1265 replacing it. Options may now be prefixed with a '+' to append to the
1266 default, e.g. "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss".
1267 - sshd_config(5): PermitRootLogin now accepts an argument of
1268 'prohibit-password' as a less-ambiguous synonym of 'without-
1269 password'.
1270 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatability workarounds for Cisco and more
1271 PuTTY versions.
1272 - Fix some omissions and errors in the PROTOCOL and PROTOCOL.mux
1273 documentation relating to Unix domain socket forwarding.
1274 - ssh(1): Improve the ssh(1) manual page to include a better description
1275 of Unix domain socket forwarding (closes: #779068).
1276 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Skip uninitialised PKCS#11 slots, fixing
1277 failures to load keys when they are present.
1278 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Do not ignore PKCS#11 hosted keys that wth empty
1279 CKA_ID.
1280 - sshd(8): Clarify documentation for UseDNS option.
1281 - Check realpath(3) behaviour matches what sftp-server requires and use
1282 a replacement if necessary.
1283 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.1):
1284 - sshd(8): OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in PermitRootLogin=
1285 prohibit-password/without-password that could, depending on
1286 compile-time configuration, permit password authentication to root
1287 while preventing other forms of authentication. This problem was
1288 reported by Mantas Mikulenas.
1289 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.
1290 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
1291 - Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
1292 memory, etc) in ssh(1) and ssh-keygen(1). Reported by Mateusz
1293 Kocielski.
1294 * Change "PermitRootLogin without-password" to the new preferred spelling
1295 of "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password" in sshd_config, and update
1296 documentation to reflect the new upstream default.
1297 * Enable conch interoperability tests under autopkgtest.

1326
1327 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
1328 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
1329 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
1330 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
1331 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
1332 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
1333 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
1334 from hex to base64.
1335 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
1336 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
1337 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
1338 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
1339 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
1340 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
1341 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
1342 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
1343 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
1344 option (default off).
1345 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
1346 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
1347 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
1348 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
1349 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
1350 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
1351 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
1352 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
1353 authentication.
1354 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
1355 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
1356 decryption.
1357 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
1358 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
1359 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
1360 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
1361 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
1362 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
1363 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
1364 all.
1365 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
1366 against MaxAuthTries.
1367 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
1368 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
1369 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
1370 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
1371 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
1372 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
1373 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
1374 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
1375 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
1376 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against
1377 servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol (closes: #241119).
1378 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were
1379 being lost as comment fields (closes: #787776).
1380 - ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse
1381 phase to be applied (they were being ignored; closes: #774369).
1382 - ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the
1383 second pass through the config files always run when host name
1384 canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes)
1385 - ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection
1386 multiplexing is in use.
1387 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH
1388 formats.
1389 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use.
1390 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
1391 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
1392 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
1393 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
1394 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
1395 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
1396 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
1397 by Jann Horn.
1398 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
1399 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
1400 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
1401 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
1402 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
1403 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
1404 (closes: #740494).
1405 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
1406 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
1407 file.
1408 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
1409 devices.
1410 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
1411 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
1412 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
1413 enabling debug mode.
1414 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
1415 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
1416 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
1417 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
1418 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
1419 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).
1420 - ssh(1): Fix out-of-bound read in EscapeChar configuration option
1421 parsing.
1422 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
1423 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
1424 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
1425 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from
1426 the list of active forwards.
1427 - sshd(8): Make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options
1428 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
1429 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
1430 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
1431 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
1432 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
1433 options to appear in any order.
1434 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
1435 and ForceCommand.
1436 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
1437 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
1438 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
1439 forwarding requested.
1440 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
1441 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
1442 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
1443 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
1444 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
1445 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
1446 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
1447 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
1448 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
1449 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
1450 host key fingerprints.
1451 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
1452 language consistent.
1453 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
1454 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
1455 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
1456 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
1457 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
1458 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
1459 to fix security issues:
1460 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
1461 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
1462 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
1463 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
1464 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
1465 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
1466 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
1467 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
1468 Moritz Jodeit.
1469 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
1470 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
1471 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
1472 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
1473 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
1474 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
1475 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
1476 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
1477 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
1478 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
1479 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
1480 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
1481 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
1482 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
1483 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
1484 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

1541
1542 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
1543 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
1544 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
1545 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
1546 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
1547 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
1548 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
1549 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
1550 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
1551 key types.
1552 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
1553 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
1554 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
1555 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
1556 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
1557 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
1558 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
1559 option.
1560 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
1561 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
1562 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
1563 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
1564 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
1565 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
1566 authentication success / failure messages.
1567 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
1568 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
1569 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
1570 #734553).
1571 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
1572 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
1573 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
1574 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
1575 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
1576 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
1577 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
1578 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
1579 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
1580 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
1581 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
1582 field.
1583 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
1584 simply a new enough dpkg.
1585 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
1586 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
1587 field.
1588 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
1589 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

1744 * Bump guard version for sysvinit->systemd transition to 1:6.5p1-3; we may
1745 have got it wrong before, and it's fairly harmless to repeat it.
1746 * Remove tests for whether /dev/null is a character device from the

1774 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.5,
1775 LP: #1275068):
1776 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
1777 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
1778 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
1779 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking
1780 host certificate names (closes: #115286).
1781 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
1782 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
1783 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
1784 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
1785 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
1786 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
1787 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See
1788 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full

1794 * Incorporate default path changes from shadow 1:4.0.18.1-8, removing
1795 /usr/bin/X11 (closes: #644521).
1796 * Generate ED25519 host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish
1797 to add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey

1821 + ssh(1): add an "IgnoreUnknown" configuration option to selectively

1823 (closes: #436052).
1824 + sftp(1): update progressmeter when data is acknowledged, not when
1825 it's sent (partially addresses #708372).
1826 + ssh(1): do not fatally exit when attempting to cleanup multiplexing-
1827 created channels that are incompletely opened (closes: #651357).
1828 - 6.4/6.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.4):

1882
1883 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
1884 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
1885 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
1886 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
1887 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
1888 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
1889 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
1890 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
1891 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
1892 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
1893 the packaging.
1894 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
1895 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
1896 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
1897 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
1898 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
1899 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
1900 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
1901 openssh-server.postinst.
1902 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
1903 via dh_installdeb.
1904 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
1905 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
1906 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
1907 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
1908 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
1909 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
1910 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
1911 chroot.
1912 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
1913 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
1914 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
1915 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.
1916 * This removes the last of our uses of debconf (closes: #221531).

2039 #669667).
2040 * New upstream release (closes: #671010,
2041 http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.0).
2042 - Fix IPQoS not being set on non-mapped v4-in-v6 addressed connections
2043 (closes: #643312, #650512, #671075).
2044 - Add a new privilege separation sandbox implementation for Linux's new
2045 seccomp sandbox, automatically enabled on platforms that support it.
2046 (Note: privilege separation sandboxing is still experimental.)
2047 * Fix a bashism in configure's seccomp_filter check.
2048 * Add a sandbox fallback mechanism, so that behaviour on Linux depends on
2049 whether the running system's kernel has seccomp_filter support, not the
2050 build system's kernel (forwarded upstream as
2051 https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2011).

2091 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.9).
2092 - Introduce sandboxing of the pre-auth privsep child using an optional
2093 sshd_config(5) "UsePrivilegeSeparation=sandbox" mode that enables
2094 mandatory restrictions on the syscalls the privsep child can perform.
2095 - Add new SHA256-based HMAC transport integrity modes from
2096 http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-dbider-sha2-mac-for-ssh-02.txt.
2097 - The pre-authentication sshd(8) privilege separation slave process now
2098 logs via a socket shared with the master process, avoiding the need to
2099 maintain /dev/log inside the chroot (closes: #75043, #429243,
2100 #599240).
2101 - ssh(1) now warns when a server refuses X11 forwarding (closes:
2102 #504757).
2103 - sshd_config(5)'s AuthorizedKeysFile now accepts multiple paths,
2104 separated by whitespace (closes: #76312). The authorized_keys2
2105 fallback is deprecated but documented (closes: #560156).
2106 - ssh(1) and sshd(8): set IPv6 traffic class from IPQoS, as well as IPv4
2107 ToS/DSCP (closes: #498297).
2108 - ssh-add(1) now accepts keys piped from standard input. E.g. "ssh-add
2109 - < /path/to/key" (closes: #229124).
2110 - Clean up lost-passphrase text in ssh-keygen(1) (closes: #444691).
2111 - Say "required" rather than "recommended" in unprotected-private-key
2112 warning (LP: #663455).
2113 * Update OpenSSH FAQ to revision 1.112.

2188
2189 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.7):
2190 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
2191 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
2192 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
2193 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
2194 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
2195 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
2196 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
2197 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
2198 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
2199 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
2200 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
2201 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
2202 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
2203 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
2204 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
2205 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
2206 (closes: #594687).
2207 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
2208 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
2209 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
2210 it to be stripped off).
2211 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2212 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
2213 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
2214 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
2215 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
2216 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
2217 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
2218 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
2219 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
2220 * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this
2221 SELinux build fix.

2247 close after a user-specified duration of inactivity (closes: #335697,
2248 #350898, #454787, #500573, #550262).
2249 - Support AuthorizedKeysFile, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile,
2250 HostbasedUsesNameFromPacketOnly, and PermitTunnel in sshd_config(5)
2251 Match blocks (closes: #549858).

2286 memberships, and only allow group-writability by groups with exactly one
2287 member, as zero-member groups are typically used by setgid binaries
2288 rather than being user-private groups (closes: #581697).

2338
2339 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
2340 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
2341 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
2342 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
2343 or on the command-line.
2344 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
2345 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
2346 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
2347 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
2348 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
2349 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
2350 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
2351 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
2352 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
2353 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
2354 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
2355 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
2356 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
2357 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
2358 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
2359 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
2360 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
2361 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
2362 (closes: #270399, #428082).
2363 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
2364 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
2365 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
2366 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
2367
2368 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
2369 patches apply with offsets.
2370 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
2371 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
2372 around with uudecode.
2373 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
2374 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
2375 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
2376 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
2377 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
2378 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
2379 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
2380 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
2381 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
2382 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
2383 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
2384 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
2385 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
2386 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
2387 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
2388 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
2389 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
2390 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
2391 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
2392 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
2393 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
2394 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
2395 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
2396 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
2397 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
2398 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
2399 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
2400 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
2401 * Policy version 3.8.4:
2402 - Add a Homepage field.

2433 * New upstream release.
2434 * Update to GSSAPI patch from
2435 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.3p1-gsskex-all-20100124.patch.
2436 * Backport from upstream:
2437 - Do not fall back to adding keys without constraints (ssh-add -c / -t
2438 ...) when the agent refuses the constrained add request. This was a
2439 useful migration measure back in 2002 when constraints were new, but
2440 just adds risk now (LP: #209447).
2441 * Drop change from 1:3.8p1-3 to avoid setresuid() and setresgid() system
2442 calls. This only applied to Linux 2.2, which it's no longer feasible to
2443 run anyway (see 1:5.2p1-2 changelog).

2449 [ Colin Watson ]
2450 * Backport from upstream:
2451 - After sshd receives a SIGHUP, ignore subsequent HUPs while sshd
2452 re-execs itself. Prevents two HUPs in quick succession from resulting
2453 in sshd dying (LP: #497781).
2454 - Output a debug if we can't open an existing keyfile (LP: #505301).
2455 * Use host compiler for ssh-askpass-gnome when cross-compiling.
2456 * Don't run tests when cross-compiling.
2457 * Drop change from 1:3.6.1p2-5 to disable cmsg_type check for file
2458 descriptor passing when running on Linux 2.0. The previous stable
2459 release of Debian dropped support for Linux 2.4, let alone 2.0, so this
2460 very likely has no remaining users depending on it.
2461
2462 [ Kees Cook ]
2463 * Implement DebianBanner server configuration flag that can be set to "no"
2464 to allow sshd to run without the Debian-specific extra version in the
2465 initial protocol handshake (closes: #562048).

2471 * New upstream release (closes: #536182). Yes, I know 5.3p1 has been out
2472 for a while, but there's no GSSAPI patch available for it yet.
2473 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
2474 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
2475 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
2476 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
2477 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
2478 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
2479 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
2480 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
2481 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
2482 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
2483 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
2484 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the
2485 internal-sftp server (closes: #524423, LP: #362511).
2486 - Add AllowAgentForwarding to available Match keywords list (closes:
2487 #540623).
2488 - Make ssh(1) send the correct channel number for
2489 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
2490 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
2491 openssh-5.1.
2492 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
2493 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
2494 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).
2495 - Disable nonfunctional ssh(1) ~C escape handler in multiplex slave
2496 connections (closes: #507541).
2497 - Fix "whitepsace" typo in ssh_config(5) (closes: #514313, LP: #303835).
2498 * Update to GSSAPI patch from
2499 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.2p1-gsskex-all-20090726.patch,
2500 including cascading credentials support (LP: #416958).
2501 * Use x11.pc when compiling/linking gnome-ssh-askpass2 (closes: #555951).
2502 * Moved to bzr.debian.org; add Vcs-Bzr and Vcs-Browser control fields.
2503 * Add debian/README.source with instructions on bzr handling.
2504 * Make ChrootDirectory work with SELinux (thanks, Russell Coker; closes:

2508 * Don't duplicate backslashes when displaying server banner (thanks,
2509 Michał Górny; closes: #505378, LP: #425346).

2511 #561887).
2512 * Update OpenSSH FAQ to revision 1.110.
2513 * Remove ssh/new_config, only needed for direct upgrades from potato which
2514 are no longer particularly feasible anyway (closes: #420682).
2515 * Cope with insserv reordering of init script links.
2516 * Remove init script stop link in rc1, as killprocs handles it already.
2517 * Adjust short descriptions to avoid relying on previous experience with
2518 rsh, based on suggestions from Reuben Thomas (closes: #512198).
2519 * Remove manual page references to login.conf, which aren't applicable on
2520 non-BSD systems (closes: #154434).
2521 * Remove/adjust manual page references to BSD-specific /etc/rc (closes:
2522 #513417).
2523 * Refer to sshd_config(5) rather than sshd(8) in postinst-written
2524 /etc/ssh/sshd_config, and add UsePAM commentary from upstream-shipped
2525 configuration file (closes: #415008, although unfortunately this will
2526 only be conveniently visible on new installations).
2527 * Include URL to OpenBSD's ssl(8) in ssh(1), since I don't see a better
2528 source for the same information among Debian's manual pages (closes:
2529 #530692, LP: #456660).

2579 - packet_disconnect() on padding error, too. Should reduce the success
2580 probability for the CPNI-957037 Plaintext Recovery Attack to 2^-18.
2581 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there
2582 corresponds to sshd before running '/etc/init.d/ssh reload' from if-up
2583 script; SIGHUP is racy if called at boot before sshd has a chance to
2584 install its signal handler, but fortunately the pid file is written
2585 after that which lets us avoid the race (closes: #502444).
2586 * While the above is a valuable sanity-check, it turns out that it doesn't
2587 really fix the bug (thanks to Kevin Price for testing), so for the
2588 meantime we'll just use '/etc/init.d/ssh restart', even though it is
2589 unfortunately heavyweight.

2628
2629 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
2630 backported to 4.7p1:
2631 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
2632 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
2633 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
2634 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
2635 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
2636 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
2637 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
2638 inside the chroot environment.
2639 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
2640 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
2641 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
2642 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
2643 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
2644 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
2645 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
2646 also allow Protocol 1.
2647 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
2648 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
2649 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
2650 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
2651 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
2652 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
2653 embedded backslash escape sequences.
2654 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
2655 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
2656 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
2657 /bin/sh.
2658 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
2659 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
2660 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
2661 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
2662 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
2663 connections via a ProxyCommand.
2664 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
2665 #140828).
2666 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
2667 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
2668 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
2669 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
2670 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
2671 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
2672 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
2673 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
2674 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
2675 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
2676 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
2677 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
2678 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
2679 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
2680 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
2681 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
2682 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
2683 (LP: #119295).
2684 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
2685 chroot (LP: #237557).
2686 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
2687 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
2688 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
2689 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
2690 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
2691 rejection of changed host keys.
2692 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
2693 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
2694 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
2695 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
2696 matching.
2697 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
2698 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
2699 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
2700 source address and hostname) to test the application of
2701 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
2702 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
2703 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
2704 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
2705 connections only).
2706 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
2707 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
2708 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
2709 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
2710 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
2711 the server).
2712 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
2713 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
2714 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
2715 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
2716 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
2717 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
2718 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
2719 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
2720 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
2721 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
2722 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
2723 hijacked.
2724 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
2725 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
2726 fingerprint.
2727 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
2728 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
2729 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
2730 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
2731 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
2732 forwarder.
2733 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
2734 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
2735 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
2736 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
2737 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
2738 address and give up if that failed.
2739 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
2740 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
2741 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
2742 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
2743 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
2744 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
2745 from 768 to 1024 bits.
2746 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
2747 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
2748 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
2749 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
2750 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
2751 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
2752 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
2753 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
2754 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
2755 blocks.
2756 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
2757 that are available to a primary connection.
2758 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
2759 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
2760 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
2761 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
2762 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
2763 server runs out of file descriptors).
2764 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
2765 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
2766 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
2767 platforms.
2768 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
2769 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
2770 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
2771 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
2772 targets).
2773 * Merge from Ubuntu:

3010 - CVE-2007-4752: Prevent ssh(1) from using a trusted X11 cookie if
3011 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
3012 (closes: #444738).
3013 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
3014 installations are unchanged.
3015 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
3016 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
3017 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
3018 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
3019 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
3020 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
3021 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
3022 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
3023 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
3024 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
3025 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
3026 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
3027 without passing the full exit status.
3028 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
3029 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
3030 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
3031 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
3032 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
3033 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
3034 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
3035 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
3036 mechanisms.
3037 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
3038 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
3039 into the client.
3040 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
3041 have been established.
3042 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
3043 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
3044 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
3045 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
3046 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed
3047 (closes: #405041).
3048 - Manual page datestamps updated (closes: #433181).
3049 * Install the OpenSSH FAQ in /usr/share/doc/openssh-client.

3160 * New upstream release (closes: #395507, #397961, #420035). Important
3161 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
3162 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.4):
3163 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
3164 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
3165 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
3166 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
3167 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
3168 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
3169 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
3170 be added in future releases.
3171 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
3172 final hash of SHA256.
3173 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
3174 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
3175 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
3176 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
3177 option.
3178 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
3179 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
3180 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
3181 establish.
3182 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
3183 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
3184 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
3185 (closes: #50612).
3186 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
3187 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
3188 established.
3189 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
3190 specification of command-line arguments.
3191 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
3192 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
3193 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.

3195 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
3196 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
3197 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
3198 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
3199 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).

3204 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
3205 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
3206 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
3207 in sshd_config.
3208 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
3209 progress meter (closes: #257524).
3210 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
3211 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).

3219 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
3220 closes: #122188).
3221 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
3222 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
3223 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
3224 * Merge from Ubuntu:
3225 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
3226 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
3227 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
3228 the default path.
3229 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
3230 openssh-client dependency.

3430 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
3431 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
3432 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
3433 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
3434 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
3435 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
3436 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
3437 scp (closes: #349645).
3438 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
3439 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
3440 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
3441 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
3442 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
3443 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3444 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
3445 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
3446 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
3447 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
3448 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
3449 background at the time of session exit.
3450 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
3451 without arguments (closes: #114894).
3452 - Fix timing variance for valid vs. invalid accounts when attempting
3453 Kerberos authentication.
3454 - Ensure that ssh always returns code 255 on internal error
3455 (closes: #259865).
3456 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
3457 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
3458 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
3459 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:
3460 https://launchpad.net/bugs/25528).
3461 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
3462 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
3463 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
3464 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
3465 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
3466 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
3467 - Many manual page improvements.
3468 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
3469 possible crashes.
3470 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
3471 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.3p2-gsskex-20060223.patch
3472 (closes: #352042).
3473 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
3474 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
3475 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
3476 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
3477 (closes: #349896).
3478 * Rephrase ssh/new_config and ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen debconf

3582 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
3583 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
3584 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
3585 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
3586 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable
3587 compression on the client or set "Compression yes" (losing this
3588 security benefit) on the server.
3589 - Increase the default size of new RSA/DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3590 from 1024 to 2048 bits (closes: #181162).
3591 - Many bugfixes and improvements to connection multiplexing.
3592 - Don't pretend to accept $HOME (closes: #208648).
3593 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
3594 * openssh-client and openssh-server conflict with pre-split ssh to avoid
3595 problems when ssh is left un-upgraded (closes: #324695).
3596 * Set X11Forwarding to yes in the default sshd_config (new installs only).
3597 At least when X11UseLocalhost is turned on, which is the default, the
3598 security risks of using X11 forwarding are risks to the client, not to
3599 the server (closes: #320104).

3648 machine is not SELinux aware). By and large, the changes made should
3649 have no effect unless the rules file calls --with-selinux; and even
3650 then there should be no performance hit for machines not actively
3651 running SELinux.
3652 - Modified the preinst and postinst to call restorecon to set the
3653 security context for the generated public key files.
3654 - Added a comment to /etc/pam.d/ssh to indicate that an SELinux system
3655 may want to also include pam_selinux.so.

3677 * Since ssh-keysign isn't used by default (you need to set
3678 EnableSSHKeysign to "yes" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config), having a debconf
3679 question to ask whether it should be setuid is overkill, and the

3697 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
3698 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may
3699 provide two sets of binaries built with and without this option, since
3700 it seems I can't win.
3701 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
3702 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
3703 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).
3704 * openssh-server Suggests: rssh (closes: #233012).

3716 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
3717 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
3718 (closes: #87253, #192206).
3719 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
3720 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
3721 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
3722 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
3723 (closes: #287013).
3724 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
3725 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
3726 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
3727 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
3728 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
3729 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
3730 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
3731 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
3732 closes: #296487).
3733 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
3734 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
3735 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
3736 - Link with -lcrypt.
3737 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
3738 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
3739 satisfy build-dependencies.
3740 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
3741 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
3742 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
3743 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
3744 (closes: #307069).

3856 for this. openssh-client is priority standard, openssh-server optional.
3857 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
3858 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends

3860 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
3861 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
3862 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
3863 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
3864 and ssh/user_environment_tell.
3865 * Add a heuristic to try to make sure the sshd_config upgrade to >= 3.7
3866 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
3867 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
3868 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing

4039 * New upstream release (closes: #232281):
4040 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
4041 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
4042 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
4043 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
4044 syslog (closes: #171673).
4045 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
4046 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
4047 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
4048 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
4049 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
4050 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
4051 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
4052 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
4053 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
4054 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
4055 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
4056 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
4057 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
4058 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
4059 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
4060 ssh_config(5) for details.
4061 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
4062 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
4063 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
4064 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
4065 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.
4066 * Darren Tucker:
4067 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
4068 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.
4069 - Fix a non-security-critical segfault in PAM authentication.

4241 - Get rid of "if you have not installed debconf" text in README.Debian,
4242 and generally update the "/usr/bin/ssh not SUID" entry.
4243 * More README.Debian work:
4244 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
4245 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
4246 should probably be sorted by version somehow.

4301 module when privilege separation is enabled; it can usually read

4356 * New upstream release.
4357 - Fixes typo in ssh-add usage (closes: #152239).
4358 - Fixes 'PermitRootLogin forced-commands-only' (closes: #166184).
4359 - ~/.ssh/environment and environment= options in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
4360 are deprecated for security reasons and will eventually go away. For
4361 now they can be re-enabled by setting 'PermitUserEnvironment yes' in
4362 sshd_config.
4363 - ssh-agent is installed setgid to prevent ptrace() attacks. The group
4364 actually doesn't matter, as it drops privileges immediately, but to
4365 avoid confusion the postinst creates a new 'ssh' group for it.
4366 * Obsolete patches:
4367 - Solar Designer's privsep+compression patch for Linux 2.2 (see
4368 1:3.3p1-0.0woody1).
4369 - Hostbased auth ssh-keysign backport (see 1:3.4p1-4).
4370
4371 * Remove duplicated phrase in ssh_config(5) (closes: #152404).
4372 * Source the debconf confmodule at the top of the postrm rather than at
4373 the bottom, to avoid making future non-idempotency problems worse (see
4374 #151035).
4375 * Debconf templates:
4376 - Add Polish (thanks, Grzegorz Kusnierz).
4377 - Update French (thanks, Denis Barbier; closes: #132509).
4378 - Update Spanish (thanks, Carlos Valdivia Yagüe; closes: #164716).
4379 * Write a man page for gnome-ssh-askpass, and link it to ssh-askpass.1 if
4380 this is the selected ssh-askpass alternative (closes: #67775).

4391 * s/dile/idle/ in ssh_config(5) (closes: #118331).

5136 (closes: #49944) *** RC ***
5137 * FallbacktoRsh now defaults to ``no'' to match impression
5138 given in sshd_config
5139 * stop setting suid bit on ssh (closes: #58711, #58558)
5140 This breaks Rhosts authentication (which nobody uses) and allows
5141 the LD_PRELOAD trick to get socks working, so seems like a net benefit.

5153 * Integrated man page addition for PrintLastLog.
5154 This bug was filed on "openssh", and I ended up
5155 creating my own patch for this (closes: #59054)
5156 * Improved error message when ssh_exchange_identification
5157 gets EOF (closes: #58904)
5158 * Fixed typo (your -> you're) in debian/preinst.
5159 * Added else-clauses to config to make this upgradepath possible:
5160 oldssh -> openssh preinst fails due to upgrade_to_openssh=false
5161 -> ssh-nonfree -> openssh. Without these, debconf remembered
5162 the old answer, config didn't force asking it, and preinst always
5163 aborted (closes: #56596, #57782)
5164 * Moved setting upgrade_to_openssh isdefault flag to the place
5165 where preinst would abort. This means no double question to most
5166 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
5167 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
5168 use_old_init_script, as the situation is a bit different, and
5169 less common (closes: #54010, #56224)
5170 * Check for existance of ssh-keygen before attempting to use it in
5171 preinst, added warning for non-existant ssh-keygen in config. This
5172 happens when the old ssh is removed (say, due to ssh-nonfree getting
5173 installed).

5192 (closes: #58429)
5193 * Added the UPGRADING file to the package.
5194 * Added frozen to the changelog line and recompiled before
