1openssh (1:7.4p1-1) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium
2
3 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
4 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
5 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
6 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
7 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
8 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
9 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
10 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
11 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
12 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
13 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
14 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
15 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
16 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
17 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
18 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
19 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
20 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
21 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
22 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
23 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
24 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
25 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
26 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
27 (closes: #848714).
28 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
29 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
30 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
31 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
32 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
33 years) (closes: #848715).
34 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
35 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
36 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
37 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
38 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
39 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
40 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
41 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
42 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
43 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
44 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
45 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
46 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
47 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
48 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
49 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
50 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
51 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
52 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
53 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
54 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
55 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
56 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
57 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
58 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
59 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
60 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
61 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
62 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
63 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
64 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
65 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
66 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
67 way of restricting an account.
68 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
69 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
70 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
71 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
72 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
73 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
74 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
75 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
76 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
77 configuration error.
78 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
79 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
80 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
81 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
82 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
83 being offered.
84 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
85 that have no corresponding bare public key.
86 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
87 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
88 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
89 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
90 messages.
91 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
92 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
93 - sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before suspending
94 sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode correctly if
95 suspended during a password prompt.
96 - ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
97 prompt (LP: #1646813).
98 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-info
99 messages.
100 - sshd(8): Fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-sequence
101 NEWKEYS message.
102 - sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in the
103 server-sig-algs extension.
104 - sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
105 - sshd(8): More strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
106 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
107 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
108 configuration.
109 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
110 configuration examples.
111 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
112 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that
113 locale's unique handling of the letters 'i' and 'I' (LP: #1638338).
114 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
115 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
116 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
117 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
118 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
119 generated on new installations.
120 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
121 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
122 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
123 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
124 #419574, #848089):
125 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
126 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
127 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
128 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
129 I've missed some.
130 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
131 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
132 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
133 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
134 than "yes", per upstream.
135 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
136 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to
137 300 by default if BatchMode is set is Debian-specific (closes: #765630).

179
180 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
181 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
182 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
183 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
184 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
185 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
186 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
187 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
188 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
189 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
190 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
191 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
192 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
193 though no such leakage has been observed.
194 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
195 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
196 "jump hosts".
197 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
198 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.
199 - ssh(1): Allow ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings to be
200 optionally overridden when using ssh -W.
201 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Implement support for the IUTF8 terminal mode as per
202 draft-sgtatham-secsh-iutf8-00 (closes: #337041, LP: #394570).
203 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for additional fixed Diffie-Hellman 2K,
204 4K and 8K groups from draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2-03.
205 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sshd(8): Support SHA256 and SHA512 RSA
206 signatures in certificates.
207 - ssh(1): Add an Include directive for ssh_config(5) files (closes:
208 #536031).
209 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
210 from the server.
211 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
212 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
213 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
214 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
215 multiple authentication.
216 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
217 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
218 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
219 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
220 are enabled.
221 - sshd(8): Remove fallback from moduli to obsolete "primes" file that
222 was deprecated in 2001 (LP: #1528251).
223 - sshd_config(5): Correct description of UseDNS: it affects ssh hostname
224 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
225 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
226 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
227 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf
228 sandbox.
229 - scp(1): Respect the local user's LC_CTYPE locale (closes: #396295).
230 - Take character display widths into account for the progressmeter
231 (closes: #407088).

237 [ Colin Watson ]
238 * Stop enabling ssh-session-cleanup.service by default; instead, ship it
239 as an example and add a section to README.Debian. libpam-systemd >= 230
240 and "UsePAM yes" should take care of the original problem for most
241 systemd users (thanks, Michael Biebl; closes: #832155).

247 the corresponding upstart job in that case (closes: #832445).

260 .deb, followed by "dpkg --configure -a".
261 * Recommend libpam-systemd from openssh-server. It's a much better
262 solution than the above for systemd users, but I'm wary of depending on
263 it in case I cause an assortment of exciting dependency problems on
264 upgrade for non-systemd users.

334
335 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
336 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
337 default in ssh:
338 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
339 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
340 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
341 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
342 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
343 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
344 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
345 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
346 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
347 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
348 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
349 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
350 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
351 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
352 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
353 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
354 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
355 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
356 'confirm').
357 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
358 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
359 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
360 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
361 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
362 we might implement in the future.
363 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
364 certificates.
365 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
366 supported formats (closes: #811125).
367 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
368 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
369 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
370 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
371 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
372 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
373 default.
374 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
375 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
376 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
377 certificates instead of plain keys.
378 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
379 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
380 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
381 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate
382 recursive uploads (regression in OpenSSH 6.8; LP: #1553378).
383 * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs, and link to cgit rather than gitweb.
384 * Restore slogin symlinks for compatibility, although they were removed
385 upstream.

466
467 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.0, closes:
468 #785190):
469 - Support for the legacy SSH version 1 protocol is disabled by default
470 at compile time.
471 - Support for the 1024-bit diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 key exchange is
472 disabled by default at run-time. It may be re-enabled using the
473 instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
474 - Support for ssh-dss, ssh-dss-cert-* host and user keys is disabled by
475 default at run-time. These may be re-enabled using the instructions
476 at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
477 - Support for the legacy v00 cert format has been removed.
478 - The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has changed
479 from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
480 - PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
481 interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
482 hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
483 keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those were
484 enabled).
485 - ssh_config(5): Add PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes option to control which
486 public key types are available for user authentication.
487 - sshd_config(5): Add HostKeyAlgorithms option to control which public
488 key types are offered for host authentications.
489 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Extend Ciphers, MACs, KexAlgorithms,
490 HostKeyAlgorithms, PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and HostbasedKeyTypes
491 options to allow appending to the default set of algorithms instead of
492 replacing it. Options may now be prefixed with a '+' to append to the
493 default, e.g. "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss".
494 - sshd_config(5): PermitRootLogin now accepts an argument of
495 'prohibit-password' as a less-ambiguous synonym of 'without-
496 password'.
497 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatability workarounds for Cisco and more
498 PuTTY versions.
499 - Fix some omissions and errors in the PROTOCOL and PROTOCOL.mux
500 documentation relating to Unix domain socket forwarding.
501 - ssh(1): Improve the ssh(1) manual page to include a better description
502 of Unix domain socket forwarding (closes: #779068).
503 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Skip uninitialised PKCS#11 slots, fixing
504 failures to load keys when they are present.
505 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Do not ignore PKCS#11 hosted keys that wth empty
506 CKA_ID.
507 - sshd(8): Clarify documentation for UseDNS option.
508 - Check realpath(3) behaviour matches what sftp-server requires and use
509 a replacement if necessary.
510 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.1):
511 - sshd(8): OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in PermitRootLogin=
512 prohibit-password/without-password that could, depending on
513 compile-time configuration, permit password authentication to root
514 while preventing other forms of authentication. This problem was
515 reported by Mantas Mikulenas.
516 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.
517 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
518 - Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
519 memory, etc) in ssh(1) and ssh-keygen(1). Reported by Mateusz
520 Kocielski.
521 * Change "PermitRootLogin without-password" to the new preferred spelling
522 of "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password" in sshd_config, and update
523 documentation to reflect the new upstream default.
524 * Enable conch interoperability tests under autopkgtest.

553
554 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
555 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
556 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
557 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
558 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
559 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
560 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
561 from hex to base64.
562 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
563 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
564 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
565 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
566 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
567 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
568 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
569 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
570 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
571 option (default off).
572 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
573 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
574 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
575 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
576 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
577 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
578 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
579 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
580 authentication.
581 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
582 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
583 decryption.
584 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
585 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
586 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
587 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
588 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
589 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
590 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
591 all.
592 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
593 against MaxAuthTries.
594 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
595 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
596 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
597 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
598 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
599 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
600 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
601 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
602 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
603 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against
604 servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol (closes: #241119).
605 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were
606 being lost as comment fields (closes: #787776).
607 - ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse
608 phase to be applied (they were being ignored; closes: #774369).
609 - ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the
610 second pass through the config files always run when host name
611 canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes)
612 - ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection
613 multiplexing is in use.
614 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH
615 formats.
616 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use.
617 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
618 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
619 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
620 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
621 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
622 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
623 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
624 by Jann Horn.
625 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
626 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
627 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
628 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
629 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
630 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
631 (closes: #740494).
632 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
633 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
634 file.
635 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
636 devices.
637 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
638 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
639 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
640 enabling debug mode.
641 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
642 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
643 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
644 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
645 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
646 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).
647 - ssh(1): Fix out-of-bound read in EscapeChar configuration option
648 parsing.
649 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
650 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
651 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
652 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from
653 the list of active forwards.
654 - sshd(8): Make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options
655 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
656 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
657 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
658 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
659 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
660 options to appear in any order.
661 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
662 and ForceCommand.
663 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
664 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
665 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
666 forwarding requested.
667 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
668 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
669 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
670 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
671 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
672 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
673 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
674 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
675 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
676 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
677 host key fingerprints.
678 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
679 language consistent.
680 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
681 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
682 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
683 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
684 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
685 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
686 to fix security issues:
687 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
688 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
689 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
690 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
691 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
692 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
693 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
694 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
695 Moritz Jodeit.
696 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
697 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
698 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
699 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
700 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
701 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
702 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
703 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
704 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
705 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
706 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
707 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
708 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
709 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
710 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
711 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

768
769 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
770 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
771 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
772 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
773 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
774 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
775 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
776 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
777 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
778 key types.
779 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
780 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
781 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
782 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
783 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
784 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
785 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
786 option.
787 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
788 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
789 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
790 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
791 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
792 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
793 authentication success / failure messages.
794 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
795 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
796 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
797 #734553).
798 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
799 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
800 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
801 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
802 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
803 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
804 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
805 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
806 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
807 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
808 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
809 field.
810 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
811 simply a new enough dpkg.
812 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
813 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
814 field.

816 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

973 * Remove tests for whether /dev/null is a character device from the

1003 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
1004 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
1005 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
1006 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking

1008 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
1009 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
1010 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
1011 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
1012 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
1013 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
1014 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See

1109
1110 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
1111 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
1112 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
1113 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
1114 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
1115 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
1116 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
1117 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
1118 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
1119 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
1120 the packaging.
1121 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
1122 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
1123 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
1124 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
1125 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
1126 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
1127 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
1128 openssh-server.postinst.
1129 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
1130 via dh_installdeb.
1131 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
1132 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
1133 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
1134 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
1135 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
1136 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
1137 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
1138 chroot.
1139 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
1140 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
1141 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
1142 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.

1319 - Introduce sandboxing of the pre-auth privsep child using an optional

1321 mandatory restrictions on the syscalls the privsep child can perform.

1326 maintain /dev/log inside the chroot (closes: #75043, #429243,

1328 - ssh(1) now warns when a server refuses X11 forwarding (closes:

1330 - sshd_config(5)'s AuthorizedKeysFile now accepts multiple paths,
1331 separated by whitespace (closes: #76312). The authorized_keys2
1332 fallback is deprecated but documented (closes: #560156).

1334 ToS/DSCP (closes: #498297).
1335 - ssh-add(1) now accepts keys piped from standard input. E.g. "ssh-add

1416 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.7):
1417 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
1418 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
1419 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
1420 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
1421 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
1422 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
1423 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
1424 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
1425 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
1426 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
1427 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
1428 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
1429 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
1430 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
1431 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
1432 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
1433 (closes: #594687).
1434 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
1435 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
1436 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
1437 it to be stripped off).
1438 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
1439 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
1440 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
1441 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
1442 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
1443 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
1444 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
1445 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
1446 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
1447 * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this

1565
1566 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
1567 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
1568 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
1569 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
1570 or on the command-line.
1571 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
1572 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
1573 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
1574 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
1575 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
1576 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
1577 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
1578 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
1579 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
1580 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
1581 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
1582 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
1583 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
1584 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
1585 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
1586 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
1587 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
1588 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
1589 (closes: #270399, #428082).
1590 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
1591 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
1592 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
1593 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
1594
1595 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
1596 patches apply with offsets.
1597 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
1598 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
1599 around with uudecode.
1600 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
1601 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
1602 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
1603 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
1604 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
1605 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
1606 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
1607 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
1608 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
1609 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
1610 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
1611 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
1612 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
1613 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
1614 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
1615 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
1616 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
1617 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
1618 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
1619 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
1620 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
1621 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
1622 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
1623 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
1624 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
1625 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
1626 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
1627 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
1628 * Policy version 3.8.4:
1629 - Add a Homepage field.

1663 * Backport from upstream:
1664 - Do not fall back to adding keys without constraints (ssh-add -c / -t
1665 ...) when the agent refuses the constrained add request. This was a
1666 useful migration measure back in 2002 when constraints were new, but
1667 just adds risk now (LP: #209447).
1668 * Drop change from 1:3.8p1-3 to avoid setresuid() and setresgid() system
1669 calls. This only applied to Linux 2.2, which it's no longer feasible to
1670 run anyway (see 1:5.2p1-2 changelog).

1677 * Backport from upstream:
1678 - After sshd receives a SIGHUP, ignore subsequent HUPs while sshd
1679 re-execs itself. Prevents two HUPs in quick succession from resulting
1680 in sshd dying (LP: #497781).
1681 - Output a debug if we can't open an existing keyfile (LP: #505301).
1682 * Use host compiler for ssh-askpass-gnome when cross-compiling.
1683 * Don't run tests when cross-compiling.
1684 * Drop change from 1:3.6.1p2-5 to disable cmsg_type check for file
1685 descriptor passing when running on Linux 2.0. The previous stable
1686 release of Debian dropped support for Linux 2.4, let alone 2.0, so this
1687 very likely has no remaining users depending on it.
1688

1700 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
1701 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
1702 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
1703 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
1704 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
1705 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
1706 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
1707 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
1708 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
1709 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
1710 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
1711 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the
1712 internal-sftp server (closes: #524423, LP: #362511).
1713 - Add AllowAgentForwarding to available Match keywords list (closes:
1714 #540623).
1715 - Make ssh(1) send the correct channel number for
1716 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
1717 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
1718 openssh-5.1.
1719 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
1720 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
1721 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).
1722 - Disable nonfunctional ssh(1) ~C escape handler in multiplex slave
1723 connections (closes: #507541).
1724 - Fix "whitepsace" typo in ssh_config(5) (closes: #514313, LP: #303835).

1727 including cascading credentials support (LP: #416958).

1741 are no longer particularly feasible anyway (closes: #420682).
1742 * Cope with insserv reordering of init script links.
1743 * Remove init script stop link in rc1, as killprocs handles it already.
1744 * Adjust short descriptions to avoid relying on previous experience with
1745 rsh, based on suggestions from Reuben Thomas (closes: #512198).
1746 * Remove manual page references to login.conf, which aren't applicable on
1747 non-BSD systems (closes: #154434).

1808 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there
1809 corresponds to sshd before running '/etc/init.d/ssh reload' from if-up
1810 script; SIGHUP is racy if called at boot before sshd has a chance to
1811 install its signal handler, but fortunately the pid file is written
1812 after that which lets us avoid the race (closes: #502444).

1855
1856 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
1857 backported to 4.7p1:
1858 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
1859 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
1860 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
1861 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
1862 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
1863 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
1864 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
1865 inside the chroot environment.
1866 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
1867 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
1868 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
1869 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
1870 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
1871 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
1872 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
1873 also allow Protocol 1.
1874 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
1875 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
1876 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
1877 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
1878 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
1879 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
1880 embedded backslash escape sequences.
1881 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
1882 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
1883 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
1884 /bin/sh.
1885 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
1886 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
1887 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
1888 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
1889 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
1890 connections via a ProxyCommand.
1891 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
1892 #140828).
1893 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
1894 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
1895 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
1896 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
1897 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
1898 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
1899 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
1900 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
1901 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
1902 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
1903 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
1904 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
1905 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
1906 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
1907 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
1908 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
1909 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
1910 (LP: #119295).
1911 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
1912 chroot (LP: #237557).
1913 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
1914 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
1915 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
1916 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
1917 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
1918 rejection of changed host keys.
1919 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
1920 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
1921 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
1922 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
1923 matching.
1924 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
1925 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
1926 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
1927 source address and hostname) to test the application of
1928 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
1929 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
1930 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
1931 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
1932 connections only).
1933 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
1934 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
1935 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
1936 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
1937 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
1938 the server).
1939 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
1940 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
1941 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
1942 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
1943 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
1944 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
1945 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
1946 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
1947 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
1948 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
1949 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
1950 hijacked.
1951 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
1952 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
1953 fingerprint.
1954 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
1955 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
1956 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
1957 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
1958 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
1959 forwarder.
1960 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
1961 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
1962 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
1963 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
1964 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
1965 address and give up if that failed.
1966 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
1967 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
1968 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
1969 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
1970 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
1971 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
1972 from 768 to 1024 bits.
1973 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
1974 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
1975 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
1976 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
1977 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
1978 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
1979 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
1980 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
1981 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
1982 blocks.
1983 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
1984 that are available to a primary connection.
1985 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
1986 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
1987 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
1988 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
1989 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
1990 server runs out of file descriptors).
1991 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
1992 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
1993 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
1994 platforms.
1995 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
1996 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
1997 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client

2238 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
2239 (closes: #444738).
2240 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
2241 installations are unchanged.
2242 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
2243 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
2244 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
2245 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
2246 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
2247 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
2248 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
2249 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
2250 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
2251 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
2252 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
2253 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
2254 without passing the full exit status.
2255 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
2256 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
2257 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
2258 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
2259 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
2260 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
2261 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
2262 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
2263 mechanisms.
2264 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
2265 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
2266 into the client.
2267 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
2268 have been established.
2269 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
2270 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
2271 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
2272 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
2273 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed

2386
2387 * New upstream release (closes: #395507, #397961, #420035). Important
2388 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
2389 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.4):
2390 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
2391 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
2392 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
2393 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
2394 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
2395 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
2396 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
2397 be added in future releases.
2398 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
2399 final hash of SHA256.
2400 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
2401 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
2402 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
2403 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
2404 option.
2405 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
2406 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
2407 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
2408 establish.
2409 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
2410 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
2411 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
2412 (closes: #50612).
2413 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
2414 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
2415 established.
2416 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
2417 specification of command-line arguments.
2418 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
2419 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
2420 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
2421 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
2422 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
2423 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
2424 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
2425 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
2426 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
2427 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
2428 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
2429 liberal (closes: #103677).
2430 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
2431 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
2432 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
2433 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
2434 in sshd_config.
2435 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
2436 progress meter (closes: #257524).
2437 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
2438 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
2439 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2440 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
2441 install ChangeLog.gssapi.
2442 * Build the .deb --with-ssl-engine (closes: #408027, LP: #119295).
2443 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
2444 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).
2445 * Move init script start links to S16, move rc1 stop link to K84, and
2446 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
2447 closes: #122188).
2448 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
2449 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
2450 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
2451 * Merge from Ubuntu:
2452 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
2453 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
2454 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
2455 the default path.
2456 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
2457 openssh-client dependency.

2526
2527 [ Colin Watson ]
2528 * Drop versioning on ssh/ssh-krb5 Replaces, as otherwise it isn't
2529 sufficient to replace conffiles (closes: #402804).
2530 * Make GSSAPICleanupCreds a compatibility alias for
2531 GSSAPICleanupCredentials. Mark GSSUseSessionCCache and
2532 GSSAPIUseSessionCredCache as known-but-unsupported options, and migrate
2533 away from them on upgrade.
2534 * It turns out that the people who told me that removing a conffile in the
2535 preinst was sufficient to have dpkg replace it without prompting when
2536 moving a conffile between packages were very much mistaken. As far as I
2537 can tell, the only way to do this reliably is to write out the desired
2538 new text of the conffile in the preinst. This is gross, and requires
2539 shipping the text of all conffiles in the preinst too, but there's
2540 nothing for it. Fortunately this nonsense is only required for smooth
2541 upgrades from sarge.
2542 * debconf template translations:
2543 - Add Romanian (thanks, Stan Ioan-Eugen; closes: #403528).

2555 * Fix quoting error in configure.ac and regenerate configure (thanks, Ben
2556 Pfaff; closes: #391248).
2557 * When installing openssh-client or openssh-server from scratch, remove
2558 any unchanged conffiles from the pre-split ssh package to work around a

2605 - CVE-2006-4924: Fix a pre-authentication denial of service found by
2606 Tavis Ormandy, that would cause sshd(8) to spin until the login grace
2607 time expired (closes: #389995).
2608 - CVE-2006-5051: Fix an unsafe signal hander reported by Mark Dowd. The
2609 signal handler was vulnerable to a race condition that could be
2610 exploited to perform a pre-authentication denial of service. On
2611 portable OpenSSH, this vulnerability could theoretically lead to

2656
2657 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
2658 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
2659 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
2660 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
2661 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
2662 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
2663 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
2664 scp (closes: #349645).
2665 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
2666 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
2667 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
2668 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
2669 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
2670 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
2671 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
2672 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
2673 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
2674 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
2675 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
2676 background at the time of session exit.
2677 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
2678 without arguments (closes: #114894).
2679 - Fix timing variance for valid vs. invalid accounts when attempting
2680 Kerberos authentication.
2681 - Ensure that ssh always returns code 255 on internal error
2682 (closes: #259865).
2683 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
2684 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
2685 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
2686 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:
2687 https://launchpad.net/bugs/25528).
2688 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
2689 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
2690 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
2691 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
2692 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
2693 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
2694 - Many manual page improvements.
2695 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
2696 possible crashes.
2697 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2698 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.3p2-gsskex-20060223.patch
2699 (closes: #352042).
2700 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
2701 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
2702 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
2703 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
2704 (closes: #349896).
2705 * Rephrase ssh/new_config and ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen debconf
2706 templates to make boolean short descriptions end with a question mark
2707 and to avoid use of the first person.

2778 different version of the gssapi authentication method (thanks, Aaron M.
2779 Ucko; closes: #328388).

2789 - Add GSSAPI key exchange support from
2790 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh.html (thanks, Stephen
2791 Frost).
2792 - Build-depend on libkrb5-dev and configure --with-kerberos5=/usr.
2793 - openssh-client and openssh-server replace ssh-krb5.
2794 - Update commented-out Kerberos/GSSAPI options in default sshd_config.

2796 gss-serv-krb5.c.

2802 * New upstream release.
2803 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2797): Fix a bug introduced in OpenSSH 4.0 that
2804 caused GatewayPorts to be incorrectly activated for dynamic ("-D")
2805 port forwardings when no listen address was explicitly specified
2806 (closes: #326065).
2807 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2798): Fix improper delegation of GSSAPI
2808 credentials. This code is only built in openssh-krb5, not openssh, but
2809 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
2810 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
2811 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
2812 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
2813 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable
2814 compression on the client or set "Compression yes" (losing this
2815 security benefit) on the server.
2816 - Increase the default size of new RSA/DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
2817 from 1024 to 2048 bits (closes: #181162).
2818 - Many bugfixes and improvements to connection multiplexing.
2819 - Don't pretend to accept $HOME (closes: #208648).
2820 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
2821 * openssh-client and openssh-server conflict with pre-split ssh to avoid
2822 problems when ssh is left un-upgraded (closes: #324695).
2823 * Set X11Forwarding to yes in the default sshd_config (new installs only).
2824 At least when X11UseLocalhost is turned on, which is the default, the
2825 security risks of using X11 forwarding are risks to the client, not to
2826 the server (closes: #320104).

2835 pointing to the obsolete /usr/lib/ssh/gnome-ssh-askpass.

2860 question contains only the file's owner (closes: #314347).

2872 * SELinux support (thanks, Manoj Srivastava; closes: #308555):
2873 - Added SELinux capability, and turned it on be default. Added
2874 restorecon calls in preinst and postinst (should not matter if the
2875 machine is not SELinux aware). By and large, the changes made should
2876 have no effect unless the rules file calls --with-selinux; and even
2877 then there should be no performance hit for machines not actively
2878 running SELinux.
2879 - Modified the preinst and postinst to call restorecon to set the
2880 security context for the generated public key files.
2881 - Added a comment to /etc/pam.d/ssh to indicate that an SELinux system
2882 may want to also include pam_selinux.so.
2883 * Re-enable ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, now that its build-dependencies
2884 are available.
2885 * Restore /usr/lib/sftp-server temporarily, as a symlink to
2886 /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server (closes: #312891).
2887 * Switch to debhelper compatibility level 3, since 2 is deprecated.

2902 and has not been the default since openssh 1:3.0.1p1-1. Users who need
2903 this should edit sshd_config instead (closes: #147212).
2904 * Since ssh-keysign isn't used by default (you need to set
2905 EnableSSHKeysign to "yes" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config), having a debconf
2906 question to ask whether it should be setuid is overkill, and the
2907 question text had got out of date anyway. Remove this question, ship
2908 ssh-keysign setuid in openssh-client.deb, and set a statoverride if the
2909 debconf question was previously set to false.
2910 * Add lintian overrides for the above (setuid-binary,
2911 no-debconf-templates).
2912 * Fix picky lintian errors about slogin symlinks.
2913 * Fix DEB_HOST_ARCH_OS/DEB_HOST_GNU_SYSTEM compatibility handling.

2921 - Normalise socket addresses returned by get_remote_hostname(), fixing

2923 * Take upstream's hint and disable the unsupported USE_POSIX_THREADS
2924 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
2925 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may
2926 provide two sets of binaries built with and without this option, since
2927 it seems I can't win.
2928 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
2929 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
2930 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).
2931 * openssh-server Suggests: rssh (closes: #233012).
2932 * Change libexecdir to /usr/lib/openssh, and fix up various alternatives
2933 and configuration files to match (closes: #87900, #151321).

2942 - Port-forwarding specifications now take optional bind addresses, and
2943 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
2944 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
2945 (closes: #87253, #192206).
2946 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
2947 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
2948 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
2949 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
2950 (closes: #287013).
2951 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
2952 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
2953 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
2954 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
2955 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
2956 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
2957 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
2958 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
2959 closes: #296487).
2960 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
2961 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
2962 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
2963 - Link with -lcrypt.
2964 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
2965 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
2966 satisfy build-dependencies.
2967 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
2968 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
2969 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
2970 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
2971 (closes: #307069).
2972 * debconf template translations:

3084 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
3085 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends

3087 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
3088 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
3089 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
3090 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
3091 and ssh/user_environment_tell.

3093 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
3094 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
3095 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing

3266 * New upstream release (closes: #232281):
3267 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
3268 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
3269 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
3270 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
3271 syslog (closes: #171673).
3272 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
3273 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
3274 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
3275 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
3276 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
3277 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
3278 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
3279 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
3280 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
3281 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
3282 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
3283 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
3284 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
3285 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
3286 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
3287 ssh_config(5) for details.
3288 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
3289 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
3290 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
3291 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
3292 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.

3294 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
3295 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.

3470 * More README.Debian work:
3471 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
3472 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
3473 should probably be sorted by version somehow.

3526 at least correct (thanks, Matthew Woodcraft; closes: #84725).
3527 * Stop using pam_lastlog, as it doesn't currently work well as a session
3528 module when privilege separation is enabled; it can usually read

3533 installation (part of #110094).
3534 * When restarting via the init script, check for sshd_not_to_be_run after
3535 stopping sshd (idea from Tomas Pospisek; closes: #149850).
3536 * Append /usr/sbin:/sbin to the init script's $PATH, just in case of

3583 * New upstream release.
3584 - Fixes typo in ssh-add usage (closes: #152239).
3585 - Fixes 'PermitRootLogin forced-commands-only' (closes: #166184).
3586 - ~/.ssh/environment and environment= options in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
3587 are deprecated for security reasons and will eventually go away. For
3588 now they can be re-enabled by setting 'PermitUserEnvironment yes' in
3589 sshd_config.
3590 - ssh-agent is installed setgid to prevent ptrace() attacks. The group
3591 actually doesn't matter, as it drops privileges immediately, but to
3592 avoid confusion the postinst creates a new 'ssh' group for it.
3593 * Obsolete patches:
3594 - Solar Designer's privsep+compression patch for Linux 2.2 (see
3595 1:3.3p1-0.0woody1).
3596 - Hostbased auth ssh-keysign backport (see 1:3.4p1-4).
3597
3598 * Remove duplicated phrase in ssh_config(5) (closes: #152404).
3599 * Source the debconf confmodule at the top of the postrm rather than at
3600 the bottom, to avoid making future non-idempotency problems worse (see
3601 #151035).
3602 * Debconf templates:
3603 - Add Polish (thanks, Grzegorz Kusnierz).
3604 - Update French (thanks, Denis Barbier; closes: #132509).
3605 - Update Spanish (thanks, Carlos Valdivia Yagüe; closes: #164716).
3606 * Write a man page for gnome-ssh-askpass, and link it to ssh-askpass.1 if
3607 this is the selected ssh-askpass alternative (closes: #67775).

3618 * s/dile/idle/ in ssh_config(5) (closes: #118331).

4380 * Integrated man page addition for PrintLastLog.
4381 This bug was filed on "openssh", and I ended up
4382 creating my own patch for this (closes: #59054)
4383 * Improved error message when ssh_exchange_identification
4384 gets EOF (closes: #58904)
4385 * Fixed typo (your -> you're) in debian/preinst.
4386 * Added else-clauses to config to make this upgradepath possible:
4387 oldssh -> openssh preinst fails due to upgrade_to_openssh=false
4388 -> ssh-nonfree -> openssh. Without these, debconf remembered
4389 the old answer, config didn't force asking it, and preinst always
4390 aborted (closes: #56596, #57782)
4391 * Moved setting upgrade_to_openssh isdefault flag to the place
4392 where preinst would abort. This means no double question to most
4393 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
4394 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
4395 use_old_init_script, as the situation is a bit different, and
4396 less common (closes: #54010, #56224)
4397 * Check for existance of ssh-keygen before attempting to use it in
4398 preinst, added warning for non-existant ssh-keygen in config. This
4399 happens when the old ssh is removed (say, due to ssh-nonfree getting
4400 installed).
