3 * Apply upstream patch to fix bug in HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
4 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options in the case where only RSA-SHA2 signature
5 types were specified.
6 * Apply upstream patch to request RSA-SHA2 signatures for
7 rsa-sha2-{256|512}-cert-v01@openssh.com cert algorithms (closes:
8 #923419).

14 * Recommend "default-logind | logind | libpam-systemd" rather than just
15 libpam-systemd (closes: #923199). (I've retained libpam-systemd as an
16 alternative for a while to avoid backporting accidents, although it can
17 be removed later.)
18 * Pass "--exec /usr/sbin/sshd" to start-stop-daemon on stop as well as
19 start and pass "--chuid 0:0" on start, to avoid problems with non-root
20 groups leaking into the ownership of /run/sshd.pid (closes: #922365).

55 * Be more specific about what files to install in openssh-tests, to avoid

57 * Re-export debian/upstream/signing-key.asc without extra signatures.
58 * Restore direct test dependencies on openssl, putty-tools, and
59 python-twisted-conch; these are really only indirect dependencies via
60 openssh-tests, but including them means that this package will be
61 retested when they change.

68 * Make the autopkgtest create /run/sshd if it doesn't already exist.
69 * Drop "set -x" verbosity from the autopkgtest; I think we can do without
70 this in most cases nowadays.
71 * Add an openssh-tests binary package containing enough files to run the
72 upstream regression tests. This allows autopkgtest to run more
73 efficiently, as it doesn't have to build part of the source tree again.

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

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

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

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

619
620 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.5):
621 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle
622 countermeasures that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH
623 7.3 to proceed. Note that the OpenSSH client disables CBC ciphers by
624 default, sshd offers them as lowest-preference options and will remove
625 them by default entirely in the next release.
626 - This release deprecates the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation option,
627 thereby making privilege separation mandatory (closes: #407754).
628 - The format of several log messages emitted by the packet code has
629 changed to include additional information about the user and their
630 authentication state. Software that monitors ssh/sshd logs may need
631 to account for these changes.
632 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
633 algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
634 - sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start messages
635 are sent out of sequence.
636 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in configuration
637 files.
638 - sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the server-sig-algs
639 extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were not being correctly
640 advertised.
641 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
642 known_hosts processing.
643 - ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
644 file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
645 - ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option, accept
646 RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype. Previously,
647 ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-* methods were
648 enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa method.
649 - ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file lines.
650 - Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat and
651 FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor leaks in
652 error paths.
653 - ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
654 "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
655 - ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
656 line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat square
657 bracket characters specially.
658 - Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol 1
659 support from the server, including the server banner string being
660 incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing error
661 messages from ssh-keyscan, and a segfault in sshd if protocol v.1 was
662 enabled for the client and sshd_config contained references to legacy
663 keys.
664 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
665 - sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server returns
666 zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
667 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
668 encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
669 - ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
670 printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
671 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
672 feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
673 - sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
674 AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
675 matched early.
676 - ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
677 cancellation.
678 - ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files can't
679 be opened.
680 - sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token in
681 AuthorizedKeysCommand.
682 - sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM.
683 - ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and common
684 32-bit compatibility library directories.
685 - sftp-client(1): Fix non-exploitable integer overflow in SSH2_FXP_NAME
686 response handling.
687 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression in 7.4 of deleting PKCS#11-hosted keys.
688 It was not possible to delete them except by specifying their full
689 physical path.
690 - sshd(8): Avoid sandbox errors for Linux S390 systems using an ICA
691 crypto coprocessor.
692 - sshd(8): Fix non-exploitable weakness in seccomp-bpf sandbox arg
693 inspection.
694 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sftp(1): Fix output truncation for various that
695 contain non-printable characters where the codeset in use is ASCII.

795
796 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
797 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
798 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
799 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
800 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
801 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
802 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
803 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
804 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
805 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
806 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
807 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
808 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
809 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
810 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
811 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
812 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
813 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
814 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
815 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
816 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
817 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
818 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
819 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
820 (closes: #848714).
821 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
822 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
823 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
824 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
825 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
826 years) (closes: #848715).
827 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
828 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
829 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
830 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
831 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
832 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
833 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
834 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
835 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
836 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
837 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
838 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
839 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
840 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
841 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
842 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
843 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
844 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
845 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
846 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
847 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
848 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
849 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
850 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
851 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
852 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
853 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
854 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
855 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
856 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
857 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
858 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
859 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
860 way of restricting an account.
861 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
862 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
863 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
864 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
865 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
866 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
867 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
868 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
869 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
870 configuration error.
871 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
872 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
873 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
874 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
875 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
876 being offered.
877 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
878 that have no corresponding bare public key.
879 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
880 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
881 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
882 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
883 messages.
884 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
885 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
886 - sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before suspending
887 sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode correctly if
888 suspended during a password prompt.
889 - ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
890 prompt (LP: #1646813).
891 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-info
892 messages.
893 - sshd(8): Fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-sequence
894 NEWKEYS message.
895 - sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in the
896 server-sig-algs extension.
897 - sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
898 - sshd(8): More strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
899 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
900 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
901 configuration.
902 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
903 configuration examples.
904 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
905 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that
906 locale's unique handling of the letters 'i' and 'I' (LP: #1638338).
907 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
908 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
909 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
910 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
911 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
912 generated on new installations.
913 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
914 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
915 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
916 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
917 #419574, #848089):
918 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
919 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
920 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
921 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
922 I've missed some.
923 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
924 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
925 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
926 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
927 than "yes", per upstream.
928 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
929 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to
930 300 by default if BatchMode is set is Debian-specific (closes: #765630).
931 * Build gnome-ssh-askpass with GTK+ 3 (LP: #801187).
932 * When running regression tests under autopkgtest, use a non-root user
933 with passwordless sudo.

975
976 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
977 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
978 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
979 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
980 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
981 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
982 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
983 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
984 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
985 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
986 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
987 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
988 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
989 though no such leakage has been observed.
990 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
991 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
992 "jump hosts".
993 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
994 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.
995 - ssh(1): Allow ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings to be
996 optionally overridden when using ssh -W.
997 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Implement support for the IUTF8 terminal mode as per
998 draft-sgtatham-secsh-iutf8-00 (closes: #337041, LP: #394570).
999 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for additional fixed Diffie-Hellman 2K,
1000 4K and 8K groups from draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2-03.
1001 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sshd(8): Support SHA256 and SHA512 RSA
1002 signatures in certificates.
1003 - ssh(1): Add an Include directive for ssh_config(5) files (closes:
1004 #536031).
1005 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
1006 from the server.
1007 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
1008 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
1009 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
1010 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
1011 multiple authentication.
1012 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
1013 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
1014 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
1015 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
1016 are enabled.
1017 - sshd(8): Remove fallback from moduli to obsolete "primes" file that
1018 was deprecated in 2001 (LP: #1528251).
1019 - sshd_config(5): Correct description of UseDNS: it affects ssh hostname
1020 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
1021 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
1022 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
1023 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf
1024 sandbox.
1025 - scp(1): Respect the local user's LC_CTYPE locale (closes: #396295).
1026 - Take character display widths into account for the progressmeter
1027 (closes: #407088).

1131 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
1132 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
1133 default in ssh:
1134 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
1135 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
1136 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
1137 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
1138 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
1139 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
1140 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
1141 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
1142 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
1143 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
1144 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
1145 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
1146 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
1147 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
1148 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
1149 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
1150 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
1151 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
1152 'confirm').
1153 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
1154 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
1155 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
1156 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
1157 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
1158 we might implement in the future.
1159 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
1160 certificates.
1161 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
1162 supported formats (closes: #811125).
1163 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
1164 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
1165 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
1166 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
1167 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
1168 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
1169 default.
1170 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
1171 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
1172 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
1173 certificates instead of plain keys.
1174 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
1175 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
1176 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
1177 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate
1178 recursive uploads (regression in OpenSSH 6.8; LP: #1553378).
1179 * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs, and link to cgit rather than gitweb.
1180 * Restore slogin symlinks for compatibility, although they were removed

1262
1263 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.0, closes:
1264 #785190):
1265 - Support for the legacy SSH version 1 protocol is disabled by default
1266 at compile time.
1267 - Support for the 1024-bit diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 key exchange is
1268 disabled by default at run-time. It may be re-enabled using the
1269 instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
1270 - Support for ssh-dss, ssh-dss-cert-* host and user keys is disabled by
1271 default at run-time. These may be re-enabled using the instructions
1272 at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
1273 - Support for the legacy v00 cert format has been removed.
1274 - The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has changed
1275 from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
1276 - PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
1277 interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
1278 hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
1279 keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those were
1280 enabled).
1281 - ssh_config(5): Add PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes option to control which
1282 public key types are available for user authentication.
1283 - sshd_config(5): Add HostKeyAlgorithms option to control which public
1284 key types are offered for host authentications.
1285 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Extend Ciphers, MACs, KexAlgorithms,
1286 HostKeyAlgorithms, PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and HostbasedKeyTypes
1287 options to allow appending to the default set of algorithms instead of
1288 replacing it. Options may now be prefixed with a '+' to append to the
1289 default, e.g. "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss".
1290 - sshd_config(5): PermitRootLogin now accepts an argument of
1291 'prohibit-password' as a less-ambiguous synonym of 'without-
1292 password'.
1293 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatability workarounds for Cisco and more
1294 PuTTY versions.
1295 - Fix some omissions and errors in the PROTOCOL and PROTOCOL.mux
1296 documentation relating to Unix domain socket forwarding.
1297 - ssh(1): Improve the ssh(1) manual page to include a better description
1298 of Unix domain socket forwarding (closes: #779068).
1299 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Skip uninitialised PKCS#11 slots, fixing
1300 failures to load keys when they are present.
1301 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Do not ignore PKCS#11 hosted keys that wth empty
1302 CKA_ID.
1303 - sshd(8): Clarify documentation for UseDNS option.
1304 - Check realpath(3) behaviour matches what sftp-server requires and use
1305 a replacement if necessary.
1306 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.1):
1307 - sshd(8): OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in PermitRootLogin=
1308 prohibit-password/without-password that could, depending on
1309 compile-time configuration, permit password authentication to root
1310 while preventing other forms of authentication. This problem was
1311 reported by Mantas Mikulenas.
1312 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.
1313 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
1314 - Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
1315 memory, etc) in ssh(1) and ssh-keygen(1). Reported by Mateusz
1316 Kocielski.
1317 * Change "PermitRootLogin without-password" to the new preferred spelling
1318 of "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password" in sshd_config, and update
1319 documentation to reflect the new upstream default.
1320 * Enable conch interoperability tests under autopkgtest.

1349
1350 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
1351 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
1352 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
1353 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
1354 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
1355 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
1356 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
1357 from hex to base64.
1358 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
1359 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
1360 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
1361 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
1362 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
1363 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
1364 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
1365 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
1366 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
1367 option (default off).
1368 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
1369 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
1370 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
1371 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
1372 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
1373 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
1374 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
1375 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
1376 authentication.
1377 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
1378 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
1379 decryption.
1380 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
1381 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
1382 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
1383 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
1384 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
1385 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
1386 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
1387 all.
1388 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
1389 against MaxAuthTries.
1390 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
1391 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
1392 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
1393 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
1394 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
1395 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
1396 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
1397 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
1398 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
1399 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against
1400 servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol (closes: #241119).
1401 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were
1402 being lost as comment fields (closes: #787776).
1403 - ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse
1404 phase to be applied (they were being ignored; closes: #774369).
1405 - ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the
1406 second pass through the config files always run when host name
1407 canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes)
1408 - ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection
1409 multiplexing is in use.
1410 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH
1411 formats.
1412 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use.
1413 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
1414 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
1415 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
1416 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
1417 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
1418 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
1419 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
1420 by Jann Horn.
1421 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
1422 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
1423 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
1424 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
1425 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
1426 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
1427 (closes: #740494).
1428 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
1429 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
1430 file.
1431 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
1432 devices.
1433 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
1434 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
1435 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
1436 enabling debug mode.
1437 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
1438 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
1439 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
1440 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
1441 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
1442 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).
1443 - ssh(1): Fix out-of-bound read in EscapeChar configuration option
1444 parsing.
1445 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
1446 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
1447 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
1448 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from
1449 the list of active forwards.
1450 - sshd(8): Make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options
1451 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
1452 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
1453 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
1454 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
1455 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
1456 options to appear in any order.
1457 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
1458 and ForceCommand.
1459 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
1460 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
1461 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
1462 forwarding requested.
1463 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
1464 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
1465 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
1466 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
1467 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
1468 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
1469 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
1470 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
1471 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
1472 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
1473 host key fingerprints.
1474 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
1475 language consistent.
1476 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
1477 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
1478 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
1479 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
1480 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
1481 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
1482 to fix security issues:
1483 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
1484 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
1485 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
1486 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
1487 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
1488 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
1489 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
1490 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
1491 Moritz Jodeit.
1492 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
1493 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
1494 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
1495 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
1496 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
1497 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
1498 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
1499 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
1500 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
1501 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
1502 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
1503 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
1504 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
1505 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
1506 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
1507 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

1564
1565 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
1566 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
1567 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
1568 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
1569 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
1570 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
1571 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
1572 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
1573 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
1574 key types.
1575 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
1576 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
1577 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
1578 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
1579 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
1580 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
1581 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
1582 option.
1583 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
1584 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
1585 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
1586 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
1587 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
1588 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
1589 authentication success / failure messages.
1590 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
1591 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
1592 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
1593 #734553).
1594 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
1595 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
1596 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
1597 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
1598 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
1599 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
1600 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
1601 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
1602 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
1603 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
1604 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
1605 field.
1606 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
1607 simply a new enough dpkg.
1608 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
1609 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
1610 field.
1611 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
1612 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

1767 * Bump guard version for sysvinit->systemd transition to 1:6.5p1-3; we may
1768 have got it wrong before, and it's fairly harmless to repeat it.
1769 * Remove tests for whether /dev/null is a character device from the

1797 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.5,
1798 LP: #1275068):
1799 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
1800 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
1801 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
1802 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking
1803 host certificate names (closes: #115286).
1804 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
1805 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
1806 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
1807 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
1808 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
1809 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
1810 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See
1811 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full

1817 * Incorporate default path changes from shadow 1:4.0.18.1-8, removing
1818 /usr/bin/X11 (closes: #644521).
1819 * Generate ED25519 host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish
1820 to add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
1821 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run

1849 + ssh(1): do not fatally exit when attempting to cleanup multiplexing-
1850 created channels that are incompletely opened (closes: #651357).

1905
1906 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
1907 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
1908 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
1909 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
1910 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
1911 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
1912 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
1913 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
1914 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
1915 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
1916 the packaging.
1917 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
1918 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
1919 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
1920 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
1921 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
1922 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
1923 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
1924 openssh-server.postinst.
1925 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
1926 via dh_installdeb.
1927 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
1928 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
1929 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
1930 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
1931 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
1932 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
1933 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
1934 chroot.
1935 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
1936 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
1937 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
1938 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.
1939 * This removes the last of our uses of debconf (closes: #221531).

2115 - Introduce sandboxing of the pre-auth privsep child using an optional

2117 mandatory restrictions on the syscalls the privsep child can perform.
2118 - Add new SHA256-based HMAC transport integrity modes from

2120 - The pre-authentication sshd(8) privilege separation slave process now
2121 logs via a socket shared with the master process, avoiding the need to
2122 maintain /dev/log inside the chroot (closes: #75043, #429243,
2123 #599240).
2124 - ssh(1) now warns when a server refuses X11 forwarding (closes:
2125 #504757).
2126 - sshd_config(5)'s AuthorizedKeysFile now accepts multiple paths,
2127 separated by whitespace (closes: #76312). The authorized_keys2
2128 fallback is deprecated but documented (closes: #560156).
2129 - ssh(1) and sshd(8): set IPv6 traffic class from IPQoS, as well as IPv4
2130 ToS/DSCP (closes: #498297).
2131 - ssh-add(1) now accepts keys piped from standard input. E.g. "ssh-add
2132 - < /path/to/key" (closes: #229124).
2133 - Clean up lost-passphrase text in ssh-keygen(1) (closes: #444691).

2212 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.7):
2213 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
2214 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
2215 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
2216 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
2217 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
2218 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
2219 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
2220 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
2221 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
2222 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
2223 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
2224 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
2225 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
2226 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
2227 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
2228 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
2229 (closes: #594687).
2230 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
2231 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
2232 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
2233 it to be stripped off).
2234 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2235 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
2236 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
2237 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
2238 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
2239 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
2240 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
2241 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
2242 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
2243 * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this

2361
2362 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
2363 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
2364 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
2365 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
2366 or on the command-line.
2367 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
2368 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
2369 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
2370 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
2371 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
2372 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
2373 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
2374 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
2375 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
2376 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
2377 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
2378 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
2379 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
2380 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
2381 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
2382 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
2383 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
2384 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
2385 (closes: #270399, #428082).
2386 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
2387 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
2388 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
2389 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
2390
2391 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
2392 patches apply with offsets.
2393 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
2394 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
2395 around with uudecode.
2396 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
2397 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
2398 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
2399 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
2400 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
2401 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
2402 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
2403 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
2404 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
2405 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
2406 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
2407 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
2408 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
2409 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
2410 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
2411 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
2412 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
2413 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
2414 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
2415 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
2416 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
2417 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
2418 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
2419 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
2420 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
2421 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
2422 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to

2459 * Backport from upstream:
2460 - Do not fall back to adding keys without constraints (ssh-add -c / -t
2461 ...) when the agent refuses the constrained add request. This was a
2462 useful migration measure back in 2002 when constraints were new, but
2463 just adds risk now (LP: #209447).
2464 * Drop change from 1:3.8p1-3 to avoid setresuid() and setresgid() system
2465 calls. This only applied to Linux 2.2, which it's no longer feasible to
2466 run anyway (see 1:5.2p1-2 changelog).

2473 * Backport from upstream:
2474 - After sshd receives a SIGHUP, ignore subsequent HUPs while sshd
2475 re-execs itself. Prevents two HUPs in quick succession from resulting
2476 in sshd dying (LP: #497781).
2477 - Output a debug if we can't open an existing keyfile (LP: #505301).
2478 * Use host compiler for ssh-askpass-gnome when cross-compiling.
2479 * Don't run tests when cross-compiling.
2480 * Drop change from 1:3.6.1p2-5 to disable cmsg_type check for file
2481 descriptor passing when running on Linux 2.0. The previous stable
2482 release of Debian dropped support for Linux 2.4, let alone 2.0, so this
2483 very likely has no remaining users depending on it.
2484
2485 [ Kees Cook ]
2486 * Implement DebianBanner server configuration flag that can be set to "no"

2494 * New upstream release (closes: #536182). Yes, I know 5.3p1 has been out
2495 for a while, but there's no GSSAPI patch available for it yet.
2496 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
2497 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
2498 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
2499 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
2500 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
2501 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
2502 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
2503 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
2504 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
2505 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
2506 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
2507 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the
2508 internal-sftp server (closes: #524423, LP: #362511).
2509 - Add AllowAgentForwarding to available Match keywords list (closes:
2510 #540623).
2511 - Make ssh(1) send the correct channel number for
2512 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
2513 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
2514 openssh-5.1.
2515 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
2516 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
2517 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).
2518 - Disable nonfunctional ssh(1) ~C escape handler in multiplex slave
2519 connections (closes: #507541).
2520 - Fix "whitepsace" typo in ssh_config(5) (closes: #514313, LP: #303835).
2521 * Update to GSSAPI patch from
2522 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.2p1-gsskex-all-20090726.patch,
2523 including cascading credentials support (LP: #416958).

2536 * Remove ssh/new_config, only needed for direct upgrades from potato which
2537 are no longer particularly feasible anyway (closes: #420682).
2538 * Cope with insserv reordering of init script links.
2539 * Remove init script stop link in rc1, as killprocs handles it already.
2540 * Adjust short descriptions to avoid relying on previous experience with
2541 rsh, based on suggestions from Reuben Thomas (closes: #512198).
2542 * Remove manual page references to login.conf, which aren't applicable on
2543 non-BSD systems (closes: #154434).
2544 * Remove/adjust manual page references to BSD-specific /etc/rc (closes:

2604 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there

2651
2652 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
2653 backported to 4.7p1:
2654 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
2655 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
2656 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
2657 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
2658 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
2659 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
2660 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
2661 inside the chroot environment.
2662 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
2663 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
2664 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
2665 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
2666 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
2667 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
2668 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
2669 also allow Protocol 1.
2670 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
2671 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
2672 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
2673 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
2674 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
2675 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
2676 embedded backslash escape sequences.
2677 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
2678 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
2679 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
2680 /bin/sh.
2681 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
2682 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
2683 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
2684 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
2685 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
2686 connections via a ProxyCommand.
2687 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
2688 #140828).
2689 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
2690 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
2691 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
2692 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
2693 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
2694 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
2695 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
2696 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
2697 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
2698 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
2699 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
2700 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
2701 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
2702 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
2703 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
2704 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
2705 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
2706 (LP: #119295).
2707 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
2708 chroot (LP: #237557).
2709 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
2710 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
2711 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
2712 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
2713 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
2714 rejection of changed host keys.
2715 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
2716 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
2717 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
2718 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
2719 matching.
2720 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
2721 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
2722 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
2723 source address and hostname) to test the application of
2724 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
2725 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
2726 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
2727 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
2728 connections only).
2729 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
2730 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
2731 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
2732 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
2733 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
2734 the server).
2735 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
2736 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
2737 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
2738 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
2739 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
2740 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
2741 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
2742 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
2743 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
2744 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
2745 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
2746 hijacked.
2747 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
2748 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
2749 fingerprint.
2750 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
2751 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
2752 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
2753 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
2754 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
2755 forwarder.
2756 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
2757 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
2758 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
2759 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
2760 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
2761 address and give up if that failed.
2762 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
2763 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
2764 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
2765 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
2766 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
2767 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
2768 from 768 to 1024 bits.
2769 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
2770 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
2771 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
2772 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
2773 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
2774 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
2775 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
2776 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
2777 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
2778 blocks.
2779 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
2780 that are available to a primary connection.
2781 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
2782 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
2783 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
2784 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
2785 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
2786 server runs out of file descriptors).
2787 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
2788 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
2789 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
2790 platforms.
2791 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
2792 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
2793 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
2794 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
2795 targets).

3034 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
3035 (closes: #444738).
3036 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
3037 installations are unchanged.
3038 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
3039 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
3040 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
3041 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
3042 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
3043 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
3044 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
3045 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
3046 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
3047 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
3048 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
3049 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
3050 without passing the full exit status.
3051 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
3052 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
3053 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
3054 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
3055 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
3056 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
3057 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
3058 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
3059 mechanisms.
3060 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
3061 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
3062 into the client.
3063 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
3064 have been established.
3065 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
3066 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
3067 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
3068 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
3069 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed
3070 (closes: #405041).
3071 - Manual page datestamps updated (closes: #433181).
3072 * Install the OpenSSH FAQ in /usr/share/doc/openssh-client.

3190 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
3191 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
3192 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
3193 be added in future releases.
3194 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
3195 final hash of SHA256.
3196 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
3197 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
3198 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
3199 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
3200 option.
3201 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
3202 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
3203 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
3204 establish.
3205 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
3206 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
3207 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
3208 (closes: #50612).
3209 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
3210 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
3211 established.
3212 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
3213 specification of command-line arguments.
3214 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
3215 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
3216 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
3217 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
3218 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
3219 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
3220 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
3221 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
3222 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
3223 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
3224 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
3225 liberal (closes: #103677).
3226 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
3227 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
3228 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
3229 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
3230 in sshd_config.
3231 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
3232 progress meter (closes: #257524).
3233 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
3234 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
3235 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
3236 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
3237 install ChangeLog.gssapi.

3239 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
3240 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).

3242 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
3243 closes: #122188).
3244 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
3245 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
3246 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
3247 * Merge from Ubuntu:
3248 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
3249 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
3250 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
3251 the default path.
3252 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
3253 openssh-client dependency.

3333 can tell, the only way to do this reliably is to write out the desired

3453 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
3454 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
3455 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
3456 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
3457 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
3458 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
3459 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
3460 scp (closes: #349645).
3461 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
3462 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
3463 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
3464 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
3465 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
3466 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3467 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
3468 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
3469 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
3470 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
3471 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
3472 background at the time of session exit.

3474 without arguments (closes: #114894).

3476 Kerberos authentication.

3478 (closes: #259865).
3479 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
3480 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by

3482 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:

3484 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
3485 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
3486 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
3487 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
3488 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
3489 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
3490 - Many manual page improvements.
3491 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
3492 possible crashes.

3498 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.

3585 - Add GSSAPI key exchange support from
3586 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh.html (thanks, Stephen
3587 Frost).
3588 - Build-depend on libkrb5-dev and configure --with-kerberos5=/usr.
3589 - openssh-client and openssh-server replace ssh-krb5.
3590 - Update commented-out Kerberos/GSSAPI options in default sshd_config.

3598 * New upstream release.
3599 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2797): Fix a bug introduced in OpenSSH 4.0 that
3600 caused GatewayPorts to be incorrectly activated for dynamic ("-D")
3601 port forwardings when no listen address was explicitly specified
3602 (closes: #326065).
3603 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2798): Fix improper delegation of GSSAPI
3604 credentials. This code is only built in openssh-krb5, not openssh, but
3605 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
3606 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
3607 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
3608 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
3609 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable
3610 compression on the client or set "Compression yes" (losing this
3611 security benefit) on the server.
3612 - Increase the default size of new RSA/DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3613 from 1024 to 2048 bits (closes: #181162).
3614 - Many bugfixes and improvements to connection multiplexing.
3615 - Don't pretend to accept $HOME (closes: #208648).
3616 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
3617 * openssh-client and openssh-server conflict with pre-split ssh to avoid
3618 problems when ssh is left un-upgraded (closes: #324695).
3619 * Set X11Forwarding to yes in the default sshd_config (new installs only).
3620 At least when X11UseLocalhost is turned on, which is the default, the
3621 security risks of using X11 forwarding are risks to the client, not to
3622 the server (closes: #320104).

3668 * SELinux support (thanks, Manoj Srivastava; closes: #308555):
3669 - Added SELinux capability, and turned it on be default. Added
3670 restorecon calls in preinst and postinst (should not matter if the
3671 machine is not SELinux aware). By and large, the changes made should
3672 have no effect unless the rules file calls --with-selinux; and even
3673 then there should be no performance hit for machines not actively
3674 running SELinux.
3675 - Modified the preinst and postinst to call restorecon to set the
3676 security context for the generated public key files.
3677 - Added a comment to /etc/pam.d/ssh to indicate that an SELinux system
3678 may want to also include pam_selinux.so.
3679 * Re-enable ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, now that its build-dependencies
3680 are available.
3681 * Restore /usr/lib/sftp-server temporarily, as a symlink to
3682 /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server (closes: #312891).

3698 and has not been the default since openssh 1:3.0.1p1-1. Users who need
3699 this should edit sshd_config instead (closes: #147212).
3700 * Since ssh-keysign isn't used by default (you need to set
3701 EnableSSHKeysign to "yes" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config), having a debconf
3702 question to ask whether it should be setuid is overkill, and the
3703 question text had got out of date anyway. Remove this question, ship
3704 ssh-keysign setuid in openssh-client.deb, and set a statoverride if the
3705 debconf question was previously set to false.

3719 * Take upstream's hint and disable the unsupported USE_POSIX_THREADS
3720 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
3721 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may
3722 provide two sets of binaries built with and without this option, since
3723 it seems I can't win.
3724 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
3725 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
3726 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).
3727 * openssh-server Suggests: rssh (closes: #233012).

3738 - Port-forwarding specifications now take optional bind addresses, and
3739 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
3740 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
3741 (closes: #87253, #192206).
3742 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
3743 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
3744 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
3745 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
3746 (closes: #287013).
3747 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
3748 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
3749 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
3750 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
3751 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
3752 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
3753 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
3754 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
3755 closes: #296487).
3756 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
3757 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
3758 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
3759 - Link with -lcrypt.
3760 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
3761 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
3762 satisfy build-dependencies.
3763 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
3764 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
3765 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
3766 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
3767 (closes: #307069).

3880 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
3881 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends

3883 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
3884 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
3885 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
3886 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged

3890 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
3891 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing

4063 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
4064 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
4065 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
4066 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
4067 syslog (closes: #171673).
4068 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
4069 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
4070 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
4071 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
4072 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
4073 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
4074 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
4075 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
4076 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
4077 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
4078 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
4079 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
4080 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
4081 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
4082 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
4083 ssh_config(5) for details.
4084 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
4085 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
4086 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
4087 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
4088 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.

4090 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
4091 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.

4265 and generally update the "/usr/bin/ssh not SUID" entry.
4266 * More README.Debian work:
4267 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
4268 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
4269 should probably be sorted by version somehow.

4346 * Use getent rather than id to find out whether the sshd user exists
4347 (closes: #150974).
4348 * Remove some duplication from the postinst's ssh-keysign setuid code.
4349 * Replace db_text with db_input throughout debian/config. (db_text has
4350 been a compatibility wrapper since debconf 0.1.5.)
4351 * Warn about PermitUserEnvironment on upgrade (closes: #167895).
4352 * Use 'make install-nokeys', and disable unused debhelper commands,
4353 thereby forward-porting the last pieces of Zack Weinberg's patch
4354 (closes: #68341).
4355 * Move the man page for gnome-ssh-askpass from the ssh package to
4356 ssh-askpass-gnome (closes: #174449).
4357 * Build with -DLOGIN_NO_ENDOPT, since Debian's /bin/login doesn't accept
4358 '--' to terminate the list of options (closes: #171554).
4359 * Add Jonathan Amery's ssh-argv0 script (closes: #111341).

4379 * New upstream release.
4380 - Fixes typo in ssh-add usage (closes: #152239).
4381 - Fixes 'PermitRootLogin forced-commands-only' (closes: #166184).
4382 - ~/.ssh/environment and environment= options in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
4383 are deprecated for security reasons and will eventually go away. For
4384 now they can be re-enabled by setting 'PermitUserEnvironment yes' in
4385 sshd_config.
4386 - ssh-agent is installed setgid to prevent ptrace() attacks. The group
4387 actually doesn't matter, as it drops privileges immediately, but to
4388 avoid confusion the postinst creates a new 'ssh' group for it.
4389 * Obsolete patches:
4390 - Solar Designer's privsep+compression patch for Linux 2.2 (see
4391 1:3.3p1-0.0woody1).
4392 - Hostbased auth ssh-keysign backport (see 1:3.4p1-4).
4393
4394 * Remove duplicated phrase in ssh_config(5) (closes: #152404).
4395 * Source the debconf confmodule at the top of the postrm rather than at
4396 the bottom, to avoid making future non-idempotency problems worse (see
4397 #151035).
4398 * Debconf templates:
4399 - Add Polish (thanks, Grzegorz Kusnierz).
4400 - Update French (thanks, Denis Barbier; closes: #132509).
4401 - Update Spanish (thanks, Carlos Valdivia Yagüe; closes: #164716).
4402 * Write a man page for gnome-ssh-askpass, and link it to ssh-askpass.1 if
4403 this is the selected ssh-askpass alternative (closes: #67775).

5117 conditional code breaks UseLogin in a way that protects us from this
5118 exploit anyway. ;-) (closes: #65495) *RC*
5119 * Apply Zack Weinberg <zack@wolery.cumb.org>'s patch to fix keyboard
5120 grab vulnerability in ssh-askpass-gnome (closes: #64795) *RC*
5121 * stop redirection of sshd's file descriptors (introduced in 1:1.2.3-3)
5122 and use db_stop in the postinst to solve that problem instead

5161 given in sshd_config
5162 * stop setting suid bit on ssh (closes: #58711, #58558)
5163 This breaks Rhosts authentication (which nobody uses) and allows
5164 the LD_PRELOAD trick to get socks working, so seems like a net benefit.

5175
5176 * Integrated man page addition for PrintLastLog.
5177 This bug was filed on "openssh", and I ended up
5178 creating my own patch for this (closes: #59054)
5179 * Improved error message when ssh_exchange_identification
5180 gets EOF (closes: #58904)
5181 * Fixed typo (your -> you're) in debian/preinst.
5182 * Added else-clauses to config to make this upgradepath possible:
5183 oldssh -> openssh preinst fails due to upgrade_to_openssh=false
5184 -> ssh-nonfree -> openssh. Without these, debconf remembered
5185 the old answer, config didn't force asking it, and preinst always
5186 aborted (closes: #56596, #57782)
5187 * Moved setting upgrade_to_openssh isdefault flag to the place
5188 where preinst would abort. This means no double question to most
5189 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
5190 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
5191 use_old_init_script, as the situation is a bit different, and
5192 less common (closes: #54010, #56224)
5193 * Check for existance of ssh-keygen before attempting to use it in
5194 preinst, added warning for non-existant ssh-keygen in config. This
5195 happens when the old ssh is removed (say, due to ssh-nonfree getting
5196 installed).

5215 (closes: #58429)
5216 * Added the UPGRADING file to the package.
5217 * Added frozen to the changelog line and recompiled before
