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

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

51openssh (1:7.9p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
52
53 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.9):
54 - ssh(1), sshd(8): allow most port numbers to be specified using service
55 names from getservbyname(3) (typically /etc/services; closes:
56 #177406).
57 - ssh(1): allow the IdentityAgent configuration directive to accept
58 environment variable names. This supports the use of multiple agent
59 sockets without needing to use fixed paths.
60 - sshd(8): support signalling sessions via the SSH protocol. A limited
61 subset of signals is supported and only for login or command sessions
62 (i.e. not subsystems) that were not subject to a forced command via
63 authorized_keys or sshd_config.
64 - ssh(1): support "ssh -Q sig" to list supported signature options.
65 Also "ssh -Q help" to show the full set of supported queries.
66 - ssh(1), sshd(8): add a CASignatureAlgorithms option for the client and
67 server configs to allow control over which signature formats are
68 allowed for CAs to sign certificates. For example, this allows
69 banning CAs that sign certificates using the RSA-SHA1 signature
70 algorithm.
71 - sshd(8), ssh-keygen(1): allow key revocation lists (KRLs) to revoke
72 keys specified by SHA256 hash.
73 - ssh-keygen(1): allow creation of key revocation lists directly from
74 base64-encoded SHA256 fingerprints. This supports revoking keys using
75 only the information contained in sshd(8) authentication log messages.
76 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): avoid spurious "invalid format" errors when
77 attempting to load PEM private keys while using an incorrect
78 passphrase.
79 - sshd(8): when a channel closed message is received from a client,
80 close the stderr file descriptor at the same time stdout is closed.
81 This avoids stuck processes if they were waiting for stderr to close
82 and were insensitive to stdin/out closing (closes: #844494).
83 - ssh(1): allow ForwardX11Timeout=0 to disable the untrusted X11
84 forwarding timeout and support X11 forwarding indefinitely.
85 Previously the behaviour of ForwardX11Timeout=0 was undefined.
86 - sshd(8): when compiled with GSSAPI support, cache supported method
87 OIDs regardless of whether GSSAPI authentication is enabled in the
88 main section of sshd_config. This avoids sandbox violations if GSSAPI
89 authentication was later enabled in a Match block.
90 - sshd(8): do not fail closed when configured with a text key revocation
91 list that contains a too-short key.
92 - ssh(1): treat connections with ProxyJump specified the same as ones
93 with a ProxyCommand set with regards to hostname canonicalisation
94 (i.e. don't try to canonicalise the hostname unless
95 CanonicalizeHostname is set to 'always').
96 - ssh(1): fix regression in OpenSSH 7.8 that could prevent public-key
97 authentication using certificates hosted in a ssh-agent(1) or against
98 sshd(8) from OpenSSH <7.8 (LP: #1790963).
99 - All: support building against the openssl-1.1 API (releases 1.1.0g and
100 later). The openssl-1.0 API will remain supported at least until
101 OpenSSL terminates security patch support for that API version
102 (closes: #828475).
103 - sshd(8): allow the futex(2) syscall in the Linux seccomp sandbox;
104 apparently required by some glibc/OpenSSL combinations.
105 * Remove dh_builddeb override to use xz compression; this has been the
106 default since dpkg 1.17.0.
107 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/default.mk.
108 * Remove /etc/network/if-up.d/openssh-server, as it causes more problems
109 than it solves (thanks, Christian Ehrhardt, Andreas Hasenack, and David
110 Britton; closes: #789532, LP: #1037738, #1674330, #1718227). Add an
111 "if-up hook removed" section to README.Debian documenting the corner
112 case that may need configuration adjustments.

117
118 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.8, closes:
119 #907534):
120 - ssh-keygen(1): Write OpenSSH format private keys by default instead of
121 using OpenSSL's PEM format (closes: #905407). The OpenSSH format,
122 supported in OpenSSH releases since 2014 and described in the
123 PROTOCOL.key file in the source distribution, offers substantially
124 better protection against offline password guessing and supports key
125 comments in private keys. If necessary, it is possible to write old
126 PEM-style keys by adding "-m PEM" to ssh-keygen's arguments when
127 generating or updating a key.
128 - sshd(8): Remove internal support for S/Key multiple factor
129 authentication. S/Key may still be used via PAM or BSD auth.
130 - ssh(1): Remove vestigial support for running ssh(1) as setuid. This
131 used to be required for hostbased authentication and the (long gone)
132 rhosts-style authentication, but has not been necessary for a long
133 time. Attempting to execute ssh as a setuid binary, or with uid !=
134 effective uid will now yield a fatal error at runtime.
135 - sshd(8): The semantics of PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and the similar
136 HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes options have changed. These now specify
137 signature algorithms that are accepted for their respective
138 authentication mechanism, where previously they specified accepted key
139 types. This distinction matters when using the RSA/SHA2 signature
140 algorithms "rsa-sha2-256", "rsa-sha2-512" and their certificate
141 counterparts. Configurations that override these options but omit
142 these algorithm names may cause unexpected authentication failures (no
143 action is required for configurations that accept the default for
144 these options).
145 - sshd(8): The precedence of session environment variables has changed.
146 ~/.ssh/environment and environment="..." options in authorized_keys
147 files can no longer override SSH_* variables set implicitly by sshd.
148 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): The default IPQoS used by ssh/sshd has changed. They
149 will now use DSCP AF21 for interactive traffic and CS1 for bulk. For
150 a detailed rationale, please see the commit message:
151 https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/src/usr.bin/ssh/readconf.c#rev1.284
152 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Add new signature algorithms "rsa-sha2-256-cert-
153 v01@openssh.com" and "rsa-sha2-512-cert-v01@openssh.com" to explicitly
154 force use of RSA/SHA2 signatures in authentication.
155 - sshd(8): Extend the PermitUserEnvironment option to accept a whitelist
156 of environment variable names in addition to global "yes" or "no"
157 settings.
158 - sshd(8): Add a PermitListen directive to sshd_config(5) and a
159 corresponding permitlisten= authorized_keys option that control which
160 listen addresses and port numbers may be used by remote forwarding
161 (ssh -R ...).
162 - sshd(8): Add some countermeasures against timing attacks used for
163 account validation/enumeration. sshd will enforce a minimum time or
164 each failed authentication attempt consisting of a global 5ms minimum
165 plus an additional per-user 0-4ms delay derived from a host secret.
166 - sshd(8): Add a SetEnv directive to allow an administrator to
167 explicitly specify environment variables in sshd_config. Variables
168 set by SetEnv override the default and client-specified environment.
169 - ssh(1): Add a SetEnv directive to request that the server sets an
170 environment variable in the session. Similar to the existing SendEnv
171 option, these variables are set subject to server configuration.
172 - ssh(1): Allow "SendEnv -PATTERN" to clear environment variables
173 previously marked for sending to the server (closes: #573316).
174 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Make UID available as a %-expansion everywhere that
175 the username is available currently.
176 - ssh(1): Allow setting ProxyJump=none to disable ProxyJump
177 functionality.
178 - sshd(8): Avoid observable differences in request parsing that could be
179 used to determine whether a target user is valid.
180 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix some memory leaks.
181 - ssh(1): Fix a pwent clobber (introduced in openssh-7.7) that could
182 occur during key loading, manifesting as crash on some platforms.
183 - sshd_config(5): Clarify documentation for AuthenticationMethods
184 option.
185 - ssh(1): Ensure that the public key algorithm sent in a public key
186 SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_REQUEST matches the content of the signature blob.
187 Previously, these could be inconsistent when a legacy or non-OpenSSH
188 ssh-agent returned a RSA/SHA1 signature when asked to make a RSA/SHA2
189 signature.
190 - sshd(8): Fix failures to read authorized_keys caused by faulty
191 supplemental group caching.
192 - scp(1): Apply umask to directories, fixing potential mkdir/chmod race
193 when copying directory trees.
194 - ssh-keygen(1): Return correct exit code when searching for and hashing
195 known_hosts entries in a single operation.
196 - ssh(1): Prefer the ssh binary pointed to via argv[0] to $PATH when
197 re-executing ssh for ProxyJump.
198 - sshd(8): Do not ban PTY allocation when a sshd session is restricted
199 because the user password is expired as it breaks password change
200 dialog.
201 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix error reporting from select() failures.
202 - ssh(1): Improve documentation for -w (tunnel) flag, emphasising that
203 -w implicitly sets Tunnel=point-to-point.
204 - ssh-agent(1): Implement EMFILE mitigation for ssh-agent. ssh-agent
205 will no longer spin when its file descriptor limit is exceeded.
206 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Disable SSH2_MSG_DEBUG messages for Twisted Conch
207 clients. Twisted Conch versions that lack a version number in their
208 identification strings will mishandle these messages when running on
209 Python 2.x (https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9422).
210 - sftp(1): Notify user immediately when underlying ssh process dies
211 expectedly.
212 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix tunnel forwarding; regression in 7.7 release.
213 - ssh-agent(1): Don't kill ssh-agent's listening socket entirely if it
214 fails to accept(2) a connection.
215 - ssh(1): Add some missing options in the configuration dump output (ssh
216 -G).
217 - sshd(8): Expose details of completed authentication to PAM auth
218 modules via SSH_AUTH_INFO_0 in the PAM environment.
219 * Switch debian/watch to HTTPS.
220 * Temporarily work around https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9515 in
221 regression tests.

256openssh (1:7.7p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
257
258 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.7):
259 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Drop compatibility support for some very old SSH
260 implementations, including ssh.com <=2.* and OpenSSH <= 3.*. These
261 versions were all released in or before 2001 and predate the final SSH
262 RFCs. The support in question isn't necessary for RFC-compliant SSH
263 implementations.
264 - Add experimental support for PQC XMSS keys (Extended Hash-Based
265 Signatures).
266 - sshd(8): Add an "rdomain" criterion for the sshd_config Match keyword
267 to allow conditional configuration that depends on which routing
268 domain a connection was received on.
269 - sshd_config(5): Add an optional rdomain qualifier to the ListenAddress
270 directive to allow listening on different routing domains.
271 - sshd(8): Add "expiry-time" option for authorized_keys files to allow
272 for expiring keys.
273 - ssh(1): Add a BindInterface option to allow binding the outgoing
274 connection to an interface's address (basically a more usable
275 BindAddress; closes: #289592).
276 - ssh(1): Expose device allocated for tun/tap forwarding via a new %T
277 expansion for LocalCommand. This allows LocalCommand to be used to
278 prepare the interface.
279 - sshd(8): Expose the device allocated for tun/tap forwarding via a new
280 SSH_TUNNEL environment variable. This allows automatic setup of the
281 interface and surrounding network configuration automatically on the
282 server.
283 - ssh(1)/scp(1)/sftp(1): Add URI support to ssh, sftp and scp, e.g.
284 ssh://user@host or sftp://user@host/path. Additional connection
285 parameters described in draft-ietf-secsh-scp-sftp-ssh-uri-04 are not
286 implemented since the ssh fingerprint format in the draft uses the
287 deprecated MD5 hash with no way to specify any other algorithm.
288 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow certificate validity intervals that specify only
289 a start or stop time (instead of both or neither).
290 - sftp(1): Allow "cd" and "lcd" commands with no explicit path argument.
291 lcd will change to the local user's home directory as usual. cd will
292 change to the starting directory for session (because the protocol
293 offers no way to obtain the remote user's home directory).
294 - sshd(8): When doing a config test with sshd -T, only require the
295 attributes that are actually used in Match criteria rather than (an
296 incomplete list of) all criteria.
297 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): More strictly check signature types during key
298 exchange against what was negotiated. Prevents downgrade of RSA
299 signatures made with SHA-256/512 to SHA-1.
300 - sshd(8): Fix support for client that advertise a protocol version of
301 "1.99" (indicating that they are prepared to accept both SSHv1 and
302 SSHv2). This was broken in OpenSSH 7.6 during the removal of SSHv1
303 support.
304 - ssh(1): Warn when the agent returns a ssh-rsa (SHA1) signature when a
305 rsa-sha2-256/512 signature was requested. This condition is possible
306 when an old or non-OpenSSH agent is in use.
307 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression introduced in 7.6 that caused ssh-agent
308 to fatally exit if presented an invalid signature request message.
309 - sshd_config(5): Accept yes/no flag options case-insensitively, as has
310 been the case in ssh_config(5) for a long time (LP: #1656557).
311 - ssh(1): Improve error reporting for failures during connection. Under
312 some circumstances misleading errors were being shown.
313 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add -D option to allow printing of results directly in
314 SSHFP format.
315 - ssh(1): Compatibility fix for some servers that erroneously drop the
316 connection when the IUTF8 (RFC8160) option is sent.
317 - scp(1): Disable RemoteCommand and RequestTTY in the ssh session
318 started by scp (sftp was already doing this).
319 - ssh-keygen(1): Refuse to create a certificate with an unusable number
320 of principals.
321 - ssh-keygen(1): Fatally exit if ssh-keygen is unable to write all the
322 public key during key generation. Previously it would silently ignore
323 errors writing the comment and terminating newline.
324 - ssh(1): Do not modify hostname arguments that are addresses by
325 automatically forcing them to lower-case. Instead canonicalise them
326 jo resolve ambiguities (e.g. ::0001 => ::1) before they are matched
327 against known_hosts.
328 - ssh(1): Don't accept junk after "yes" or "no" responses to hostkey
329 prompts.
330 - sftp(1): Have sftp print a warning about shell cleanliness when
331 decoding the first packet fails, which is usually caused by shells
332 polluting stdout of non-interactive startups.
333 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Switch timers in packet code from using wall-clock
334 time to monotonic time, allowing the packet layer to better function
335 over a clock step and avoiding possible integer overflows during
336 steps.
337 - sshd(8): Correctly detect MIPS ABI in use at configure time. Fixes
338 sandbox violations on some environments.
339 - Build and link with "retpoline" flags when available to mitigate the
340 "branch target injection" style (variant 2) of the Spectre
341 branch-prediction vulnerability.

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

593
594 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.5):
595 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle
596 countermeasures that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH
597 7.3 to proceed. Note that the OpenSSH client disables CBC ciphers by
598 default, sshd offers them as lowest-preference options and will remove
599 them by default entirely in the next release.
600 - This release deprecates the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation option,
601 thereby making privilege separation mandatory (closes: #407754).
602 - The format of several log messages emitted by the packet code has
603 changed to include additional information about the user and their
604 authentication state. Software that monitors ssh/sshd logs may need
605 to account for these changes.
606 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
607 algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
608 - sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start messages
609 are sent out of sequence.
610 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in configuration
611 files.
612 - sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the server-sig-algs
613 extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were not being correctly
614 advertised.
615 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
616 known_hosts processing.
617 - ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
618 file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
619 - ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option, accept
620 RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype. Previously,
621 ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-* methods were
622 enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa method.
623 - ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file lines.
624 - Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat and
625 FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor leaks in
626 error paths.
627 - ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
628 "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
629 - ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
630 line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat square
631 bracket characters specially.
632 - Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol 1
633 support from the server, including the server banner string being
634 incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing error
635 messages from ssh-keyscan, and a segfault in sshd if protocol v.1 was
636 enabled for the client and sshd_config contained references to legacy
637 keys.
638 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
639 - sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server returns
640 zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
641 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
642 encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
643 - ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
644 printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
645 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
646 feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
647 - sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
648 AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
649 matched early.
650 - ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
651 cancellation.
652 - ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files can't
653 be opened.
654 - sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token in
655 AuthorizedKeysCommand.
656 - sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM.
657 - ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and common
658 32-bit compatibility library directories.
659 - sftp-client(1): Fix non-exploitable integer overflow in SSH2_FXP_NAME
660 response handling.
661 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression in 7.4 of deleting PKCS#11-hosted keys.
662 It was not possible to delete them except by specifying their full
663 physical path.
664 - sshd(8): Avoid sandbox errors for Linux S390 systems using an ICA
665 crypto coprocessor.
666 - sshd(8): Fix non-exploitable weakness in seccomp-bpf sandbox arg
667 inspection.
668 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sftp(1): Fix output truncation for various that
669 contain non-printable characters where the codeset in use is ASCII.

768openssh (1:7.4p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
769
770 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
771 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
772 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
773 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
774 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
775 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
776 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
777 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
778 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
779 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
780 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
781 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
782 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
783 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
784 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
785 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
786 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
787 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
788 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
789 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
790 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
791 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
792 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
793 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
794 (closes: #848714).
795 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
796 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
797 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
798 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
799 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
800 years) (closes: #848715).
801 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
802 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
803 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
804 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
805 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
806 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
807 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
808 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
809 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
810 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
811 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
812 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
813 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
814 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
815 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
816 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
817 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
818 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
819 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
820 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
821 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
822 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
823 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
824 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
825 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
826 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
827 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
828 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
829 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
830 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
831 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
832 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
833 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
834 way of restricting an account.
835 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
836 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
837 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
838 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
839 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
840 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
841 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
842 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
843 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
844 configuration error.
845 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
846 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
847 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
848 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
849 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
850 being offered.
851 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
852 that have no corresponding bare public key.
853 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
854 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
855 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
856 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
857 messages.
858 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
859 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
860 - sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before suspending
861 sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode correctly if
862 suspended during a password prompt.
863 - ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
864 prompt (LP: #1646813).
865 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-info
866 messages.
867 - sshd(8): Fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-sequence
868 NEWKEYS message.
869 - sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in the
870 server-sig-algs extension.
871 - sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
872 - sshd(8): More strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
873 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
874 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
875 configuration.
876 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
877 configuration examples.
878 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
879 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that
880 locale's unique handling of the letters 'i' and 'I' (LP: #1638338).
881 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
882 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
883 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
884 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
885 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
886 generated on new installations.
887 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
888 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
889 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
890 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
891 #419574, #848089):
892 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
893 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
894 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
895 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
896 I've missed some.
897 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
898 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
899 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
900 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
901 than "yes", per upstream.
902 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
903 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to
904 300 by default if BatchMode is set is Debian-specific (closes: #765630).
905 * Build gnome-ssh-askpass with GTK+ 3 (LP: #801187).
906 * When running regression tests under autopkgtest, use a non-root user
907 with passwordless sudo.

949
950 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
951 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
952 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
953 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
954 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
955 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
956 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
957 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
958 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
959 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
960 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
961 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
962 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
963 though no such leakage has been observed.
964 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
965 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
966 "jump hosts".
967 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
968 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.
969 - ssh(1): Allow ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings to be
970 optionally overridden when using ssh -W.
971 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Implement support for the IUTF8 terminal mode as per
972 draft-sgtatham-secsh-iutf8-00 (closes: #337041, LP: #394570).
973 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for additional fixed Diffie-Hellman 2K,
974 4K and 8K groups from draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2-03.
975 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sshd(8): Support SHA256 and SHA512 RSA
976 signatures in certificates.
977 - ssh(1): Add an Include directive for ssh_config(5) files (closes:
978 #536031).
979 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
980 from the server.
981 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
982 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
983 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
984 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
985 multiple authentication.
986 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
987 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
988 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
989 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
990 are enabled.
991 - sshd(8): Remove fallback from moduli to obsolete "primes" file that
992 was deprecated in 2001 (LP: #1528251).
993 - sshd_config(5): Correct description of UseDNS: it affects ssh hostname
994 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
995 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
996 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
997 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf
998 sandbox.
999 - scp(1): Respect the local user's LC_CTYPE locale (closes: #396295).
1000 - Take character display widths into account for the progressmeter
1001 (closes: #407088).

1105 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
1106 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
1107 default in ssh:
1108 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
1109 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
1110 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
1111 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
1112 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
1113 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
1114 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
1115 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
1116 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
1117 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
1118 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
1119 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
1120 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
1121 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
1122 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
1123 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
1124 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
1125 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
1126 'confirm').
1127 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
1128 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
1129 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
1130 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
1131 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
1132 we might implement in the future.
1133 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
1134 certificates.
1135 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
1136 supported formats (closes: #811125).
1137 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
1138 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
1139 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
1140 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
1141 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
1142 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
1143 default.
1144 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
1145 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
1146 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
1147 certificates instead of plain keys.
1148 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
1149 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
1150 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
1151 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate
1152 recursive uploads (regression in OpenSSH 6.8; LP: #1553378).
1153 * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs, and link to cgit rather than gitweb.
1154 * Restore slogin symlinks for compatibility, although they were removed
1155 upstream.

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

1323
1324 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
1325 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
1326 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
1327 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
1328 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
1329 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
1330 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
1331 from hex to base64.
1332 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
1333 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
1334 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
1335 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
1336 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
1337 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
1338 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
1339 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
1340 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
1341 option (default off).
1342 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
1343 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
1344 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
1345 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
1346 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
1347 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
1348 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
1349 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
1350 authentication.
1351 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
1352 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
1353 decryption.
1354 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
1355 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
1356 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
1357 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
1358 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
1359 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
1360 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
1361 all.
1362 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
1363 against MaxAuthTries.
1364 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
1365 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
1366 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
1367 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
1368 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
1369 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
1370 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
1371 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
1372 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
1373 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against
1374 servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol (closes: #241119).
1375 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were
1376 being lost as comment fields (closes: #787776).
1377 - ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse
1378 phase to be applied (they were being ignored; closes: #774369).
1379 - ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the
1380 second pass through the config files always run when host name
1381 canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes)
1382 - ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection
1383 multiplexing is in use.
1384 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH
1385 formats.
1386 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use.
1387 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
1388 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
1389 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
1390 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
1391 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
1392 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
1393 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
1394 by Jann Horn.
1395 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
1396 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
1397 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
1398 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
1399 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
1400 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
1401 (closes: #740494).
1402 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
1403 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
1404 file.
1405 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
1406 devices.
1407 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
1408 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
1409 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
1410 enabling debug mode.
1411 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
1412 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
1413 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
1414 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
1415 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
1416 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).
1417 - ssh(1): Fix out-of-bound read in EscapeChar configuration option
1418 parsing.
1419 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
1420 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
1421 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
1422 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from

1425 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
1426 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
1427 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
1428 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
1429 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
1430 options to appear in any order.
1431 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
1432 and ForceCommand.
1433 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
1434 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
1435 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
1436 forwarding requested.
1437 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
1438 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
1439 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
1440 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
1441 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
1442 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
1443 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
1444 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
1445 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
1446 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
1447 host key fingerprints.
1448 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
1449 language consistent.
1450 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
1451 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
1452 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
1453 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
1454 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
1455 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
1456 to fix security issues:
1457 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
1458 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
1459 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
1460 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
1461 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
1462 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
1463 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
1464 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
1465 Moritz Jodeit.
1466 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
1467 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
1468 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
1469 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
1470 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
1471 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
1472 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
1473 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
1474 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
1475 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
1476 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
1477 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
1478 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
1479 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
1480 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
1481 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

1538
1539 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
1540 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
1541 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
1542 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
1543 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
1544 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
1545 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
1546 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
1547 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
1548 key types.
1549 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
1550 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
1551 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
1552 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
1553 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
1554 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
1555 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
1556 option.
1557 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
1558 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
1559 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
1560 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
1561 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
1562 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
1563 authentication success / failure messages.
1564 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
1565 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
1566 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
1567 #734553).
1568 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
1569 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
1570 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
1571 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
1572 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
1573 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
1574 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
1575 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
1576 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
1577 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
1578 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
1579 field.
1580 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
1581 simply a new enough dpkg.
1582 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
1583 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
1584 field.
1585 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
1586 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

1741 * Bump guard version for sysvinit->systemd transition to 1:6.5p1-3; we may
1742 have got it wrong before, and it's fairly harmless to repeat it.
1743 * Remove tests for whether /dev/null is a character device from the

1772 LP: #1275068):
1773 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
1774 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
1775 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
1776 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking
1777 host certificate names (closes: #115286).
1778 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
1779 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
1780 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
1781 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
1782 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
1783 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
1784 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See
1785 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full

1794 to add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey

1820 (closes: #436052).
1821 + sftp(1): update progressmeter when data is acknowledged, not when

1823 + ssh(1): do not fatally exit when attempting to cleanup multiplexing-
1824 created channels that are incompletely opened (closes: #651357).
1825 - 6.4/6.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.4):

1879
1880 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
1881 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
1882 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
1883 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
1884 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
1885 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
1886 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
1887 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
1888 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
1889 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
1890 the packaging.
1891 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
1892 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
1893 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
1894 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
1895 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
1896 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
1897 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
1898 openssh-server.postinst.
1899 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
1900 via dh_installdeb.
1901 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
1902 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
1903 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
1904 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
1905 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
1906 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
1907 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
1908 chroot.
1909 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
1910 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
1911 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
1912 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.
1913 * This removes the last of our uses of debconf (closes: #221531).

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

2089 - Introduce sandboxing of the pre-auth privsep child using an optional

2091 mandatory restrictions on the syscalls the privsep child can perform.
2092 - Add new SHA256-based HMAC transport integrity modes from

2094 - The pre-authentication sshd(8) privilege separation slave process now
2095 logs via a socket shared with the master process, avoiding the need to
2096 maintain /dev/log inside the chroot (closes: #75043, #429243,
2097 #599240).
2098 - ssh(1) now warns when a server refuses X11 forwarding (closes:
2099 #504757).
2100 - sshd_config(5)'s AuthorizedKeysFile now accepts multiple paths,
2101 separated by whitespace (closes: #76312). The authorized_keys2
2102 fallback is deprecated but documented (closes: #560156).
2103 - ssh(1) and sshd(8): set IPv6 traffic class from IPQoS, as well as IPv4
2104 ToS/DSCP (closes: #498297).
2105 - ssh-add(1) now accepts keys piped from standard input. E.g. "ssh-add

2186 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.7):
2187 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
2188 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
2189 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
2190 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
2191 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
2192 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
2193 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
2194 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
2195 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
2196 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
2197 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
2198 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
2199 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
2200 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
2201 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
2202 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
2203 (closes: #594687).
2204 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
2205 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
2206 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
2207 it to be stripped off).
2208 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2209 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
2210 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
2211 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
2212 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
2213 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
2214 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
2215 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
2216 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
2217 * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this

2335
2336 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
2337 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
2338 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
2339 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
2340 or on the command-line.
2341 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
2342 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
2343 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
2344 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
2345 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
2346 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
2347 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
2348 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
2349 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
2350 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
2351 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
2352 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
2353 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
2354 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
2355 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
2356 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
2357 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
2358 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
2359 (closes: #270399, #428082).
2360 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
2361 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
2362 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
2363 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
2364
2365 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
2366 patches apply with offsets.
2367 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
2368 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
2369 around with uudecode.
2370 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
2371 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
2372 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
2373 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
2374 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
2375 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
2376 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
2377 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
2378 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
2379 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
2380 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
2381 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
2382 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
2383 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
2384 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
2385 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
2386 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
2387 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
2388 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
2389 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
2390 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
2391 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
2392 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
2393 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
2394 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
2395 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
2396 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
2397 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
2398 * Policy version 3.8.4:
2399 - Add a Homepage field.

2430 * New upstream release.
2431 * Update to GSSAPI patch from
2432 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.3p1-gsskex-all-20100124.patch.
2433 * Backport from upstream:
2434 - Do not fall back to adding keys without constraints (ssh-add -c / -t
2435 ...) when the agent refuses the constrained add request. This was a
2436 useful migration measure back in 2002 when constraints were new, but
2437 just adds risk now (LP: #209447).
2438 * Drop change from 1:3.8p1-3 to avoid setresuid() and setresgid() system
2439 calls. This only applied to Linux 2.2, which it's no longer feasible to
2440 run anyway (see 1:5.2p1-2 changelog).

2446 [ Colin Watson ]
2447 * Backport from upstream:
2448 - After sshd receives a SIGHUP, ignore subsequent HUPs while sshd
2449 re-execs itself. Prevents two HUPs in quick succession from resulting
2450 in sshd dying (LP: #497781).
2451 - Output a debug if we can't open an existing keyfile (LP: #505301).
2452 * Use host compiler for ssh-askpass-gnome when cross-compiling.
2453 * Don't run tests when cross-compiling.
2454 * Drop change from 1:3.6.1p2-5 to disable cmsg_type check for file
2455 descriptor passing when running on Linux 2.0. The previous stable
2456 release of Debian dropped support for Linux 2.4, let alone 2.0, so this
2457 very likely has no remaining users depending on it.
2458
2459 [ Kees Cook ]
2460 * Implement DebianBanner server configuration flag that can be set to "no"
2461 to allow sshd to run without the Debian-specific extra version in the
2462 initial protocol handshake (closes: #562048).

2468 * New upstream release (closes: #536182). Yes, I know 5.3p1 has been out
2469 for a while, but there's no GSSAPI patch available for it yet.
2470 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
2471 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
2472 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
2473 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
2474 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
2475 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
2476 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
2477 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
2478 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
2479 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
2480 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
2481 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the
2482 internal-sftp server (closes: #524423, LP: #362511).
2483 - Add AllowAgentForwarding to available Match keywords list (closes:
2484 #540623).
2485 - Make ssh(1) send the correct channel number for
2486 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
2487 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
2488 openssh-5.1.
2489 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
2490 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
2491 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).
2492 - Disable nonfunctional ssh(1) ~C escape handler in multiplex slave
2493 connections (closes: #507541).
2494 - Fix "whitepsace" typo in ssh_config(5) (closes: #514313, LP: #303835).
2495 * Update to GSSAPI patch from
2496 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.2p1-gsskex-all-20090726.patch,
2497 including cascading credentials support (LP: #416958).
2498 * Use x11.pc when compiling/linking gnome-ssh-askpass2 (closes: #555951).
2499 * Moved to bzr.debian.org; add Vcs-Bzr and Vcs-Browser control fields.
2500 * Add debian/README.source with instructions on bzr handling.
2501 * Make ChrootDirectory work with SELinux (thanks, Russell Coker; closes:

2505 * Don't duplicate backslashes when displaying server banner (thanks,
2506 Michał Górny; closes: #505378, LP: #425346).
2507 * Use hardening-includes for hardening logic (thanks, Kees Cook; closes:
2508 #561887).
2509 * Update OpenSSH FAQ to revision 1.110.
2510 * Remove ssh/new_config, only needed for direct upgrades from potato which
2511 are no longer particularly feasible anyway (closes: #420682).
2512 * Cope with insserv reordering of init script links.
2513 * Remove init script stop link in rc1, as killprocs handles it already.
2514 * Adjust short descriptions to avoid relying on previous experience with
2515 rsh, based on suggestions from Reuben Thomas (closes: #512198).
2516 * Remove manual page references to login.conf, which aren't applicable on
2517 non-BSD systems (closes: #154434).
2518 * Remove/adjust manual page references to BSD-specific /etc/rc (closes:
2519 #513417).
2520 * Refer to sshd_config(5) rather than sshd(8) in postinst-written
2521 /etc/ssh/sshd_config, and add UsePAM commentary from upstream-shipped
2522 configuration file (closes: #415008, although unfortunately this will
2523 only be conveniently visible on new installations).
2524 * Include URL to OpenBSD's ssl(8) in ssh(1), since I don't see a better
2525 source for the same information among Debian's manual pages (closes:
2526 #530692, LP: #456660).

2576 - packet_disconnect() on padding error, too. Should reduce the success
2577 probability for the CPNI-957037 Plaintext Recovery Attack to 2^-18.
2578 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there
2579 corresponds to sshd before running '/etc/init.d/ssh reload' from if-up
2580 script; SIGHUP is racy if called at boot before sshd has a chance to
2581 install its signal handler, but fortunately the pid file is written
2582 after that which lets us avoid the race (closes: #502444).
2583 * While the above is a valuable sanity-check, it turns out that it doesn't
2584 really fix the bug (thanks to Kevin Price for testing), so for the
2585 meantime we'll just use '/etc/init.d/ssh restart', even though it is
2586 unfortunately heavyweight.

2625
2626 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
2627 backported to 4.7p1:
2628 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
2629 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
2630 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
2631 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
2632 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
2633 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
2634 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
2635 inside the chroot environment.
2636 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
2637 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
2638 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
2639 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
2640 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
2641 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
2642 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
2643 also allow Protocol 1.
2644 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
2645 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
2646 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
2647 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
2648 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
2649 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
2650 embedded backslash escape sequences.
2651 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
2652 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
2653 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
2654 /bin/sh.
2655 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
2656 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
2657 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
2658 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
2659 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
2660 connections via a ProxyCommand.
2661 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
2662 #140828).
2663 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
2664 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
2665 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
2666 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
2667 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
2668 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
2669 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
2670 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
2671 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
2672 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
2673 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
2674 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
2675 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
2676 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
2677 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
2678 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
2679 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
2680 (LP: #119295).
2681 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
2682 chroot (LP: #237557).
2683 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
2684 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
2685 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
2686 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
2687 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
2688 rejection of changed host keys.
2689 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
2690 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
2691 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
2692 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
2693 matching.
2694 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
2695 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
2696 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
2697 source address and hostname) to test the application of
2698 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
2699 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
2700 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
2701 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
2702 connections only).
2703 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
2704 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
2705 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
2706 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
2707 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
2708 the server).
2709 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
2710 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
2711 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
2712 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
2713 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
2714 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
2715 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
2716 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
2717 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
2718 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
2719 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
2720 hijacked.
2721 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
2722 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
2723 fingerprint.
2724 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
2725 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
2726 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
2727 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
2728 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
2729 forwarder.
2730 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
2731 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
2732 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
2733 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
2734 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
2735 address and give up if that failed.
2736 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
2737 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
2738 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
2739 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
2740 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
2741 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
2742 from 768 to 1024 bits.
2743 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
2744 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
2745 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
2746 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
2747 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
2748 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
2749 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
2750 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
2751 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
2752 blocks.
2753 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
2754 that are available to a primary connection.
2755 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
2756 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
2757 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
2758 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
2759 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
2760 server runs out of file descriptors).
2761 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
2762 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
2763 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
2764 platforms.
2765 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
2766 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
2767 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
2768 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
2769 targets).
2770 * Merge from Ubuntu:

3007 - CVE-2007-4752: Prevent ssh(1) from using a trusted X11 cookie if
3008 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
3009 (closes: #444738).
3010 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
3011 installations are unchanged.
3012 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
3013 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
3014 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
3015 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
3016 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
3017 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
3018 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
3019 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
3020 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
3021 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
3022 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
3023 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
3024 without passing the full exit status.
3025 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
3026 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
3027 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
3028 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
3029 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
3030 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
3031 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
3032 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
3033 mechanisms.
3034 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
3035 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
3036 into the client.
3037 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
3038 have been established.
3039 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
3040 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
3041 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
3042 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
3043 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed
3044 (closes: #405041).

3157 * New upstream release (closes: #395507, #397961, #420035). Important
3158 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
3159 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.4):
3160 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
3161 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
3162 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
3163 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
3164 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
3165 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
3166 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
3167 be added in future releases.
3168 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
3169 final hash of SHA256.
3170 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
3171 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
3172 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
3173 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
3174 option.
3175 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
3176 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
3177 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
3178 establish.
3179 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
3180 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
3181 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
3182 (closes: #50612).
3183 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
3184 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
3185 established.
3186 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
3187 specification of command-line arguments.
3188 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
3189 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
3190 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.

3192 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
3193 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
3194 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
3195 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
3196 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).

3201 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
3202 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
3203 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
3204 in sshd_config.
3205 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
3206 progress meter (closes: #257524).
3207 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
3208 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).

3216 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
3217 closes: #122188).
3218 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
3219 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
3220 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
3221 * Merge from Ubuntu:
3222 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
3223 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
3224 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
3225 the default path.
3226 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
3227 openssh-client dependency.

3427 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
3428 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
3429 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
3430 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
3431 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
3432 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
3433 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
3434 scp (closes: #349645).
3435 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
3436 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
3437 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
3438 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
3439 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
3440 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3441 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
3442 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
3443 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
3444 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
3445 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
3446 background at the time of session exit.
3447 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
3448 without arguments (closes: #114894).
3449 - Fix timing variance for valid vs. invalid accounts when attempting
3450 Kerberos authentication.
3451 - Ensure that ssh always returns code 255 on internal error
3452 (closes: #259865).
3453 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
3454 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
3455 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
3456 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:
3457 https://launchpad.net/bugs/25528).
3458 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
3459 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
3460 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
3461 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
3462 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
3463 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
3464 - Many manual page improvements.
3465 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
3466 possible crashes.

3468 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.3p2-gsskex-20060223.patch
3469 (closes: #352042).
3470 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
3471 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
3472 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
3473 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
3474 (closes: #349896).
3475 * Rephrase ssh/new_config and ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen debconf

3579 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
3580 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
3581 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
3582 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
3583 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable
3584 compression on the client or set "Compression yes" (losing this
3585 security benefit) on the server.
3586 - Increase the default size of new RSA/DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3587 from 1024 to 2048 bits (closes: #181162).
3588 - Many bugfixes and improvements to connection multiplexing.
3589 - Don't pretend to accept $HOME (closes: #208648).
3590 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
3591 * openssh-client and openssh-server conflict with pre-split ssh to avoid
3592 problems when ssh is left un-upgraded (closes: #324695).
3593 * Set X11Forwarding to yes in the default sshd_config (new installs only).
3594 At least when X11UseLocalhost is turned on, which is the default, the
3595 security risks of using X11 forwarding are risks to the client, not to
3596 the server (closes: #320104).

3645 machine is not SELinux aware). By and large, the changes made should
3646 have no effect unless the rules file calls --with-selinux; and even
3647 then there should be no performance hit for machines not actively
3648 running SELinux.
3649 - Modified the preinst and postinst to call restorecon to set the
3650 security context for the generated public key files.
3651 - Added a comment to /etc/pam.d/ssh to indicate that an SELinux system
3652 may want to also include pam_selinux.so.

3674 * Since ssh-keysign isn't used by default (you need to set
3675 EnableSSHKeysign to "yes" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config), having a debconf
3676 question to ask whether it should be setuid is overkill, and the

3694 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
3695 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may
3696 provide two sets of binaries built with and without this option, since
3697 it seems I can't win.
3698 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
3699 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
3700 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).
3701 * openssh-server Suggests: rssh (closes: #233012).

3713 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
3714 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
3715 (closes: #87253, #192206).
3716 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
3717 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
3718 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
3719 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
3720 (closes: #287013).
3721 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
3722 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
3723 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
3724 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
3725 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
3726 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
3727 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
3728 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
3729 closes: #296487).
3730 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
3731 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
3732 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
3733 - Link with -lcrypt.
3734 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
3735 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
3736 satisfy build-dependencies.
3737 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
3738 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
3739 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
3740 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
3741 (closes: #307069).

3853 for this. openssh-client is priority standard, openssh-server optional.
3854 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
3855 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends

3857 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
3858 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
3859 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
3860 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
3861 and ssh/user_environment_tell.
3862 * Add a heuristic to try to make sure the sshd_config upgrade to >= 3.7
3863 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
3864 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
3865 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing

4036 * New upstream release (closes: #232281):
4037 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
4038 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
4039 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
4040 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
4041 syslog (closes: #171673).
4042 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
4043 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
4044 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
4045 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
4046 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
4047 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
4048 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
4049 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
4050 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
4051 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
4052 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
4053 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
4054 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
4055 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
4056 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
4057 ssh_config(5) for details.
4058 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
4059 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
4060 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
4061 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
4062 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.
4063 * Darren Tucker:
4064 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
4065 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.
4066 - Fix a non-security-critical segfault in PAM authentication.

4239 and generally update the "/usr/bin/ssh not SUID" entry.
4240 * More README.Debian work:
4241 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
4242 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
4243 should probably be sorted by version somehow.

4352
4353 * New upstream release.
4354 - Fixes typo in ssh-add usage (closes: #152239).
4355 - Fixes 'PermitRootLogin forced-commands-only' (closes: #166184).
4356 - ~/.ssh/environment and environment= options in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
4357 are deprecated for security reasons and will eventually go away. For
4358 now they can be re-enabled by setting 'PermitUserEnvironment yes' in
4359 sshd_config.
4360 - ssh-agent is installed setgid to prevent ptrace() attacks. The group
4361 actually doesn't matter, as it drops privileges immediately, but to
4362 avoid confusion the postinst creates a new 'ssh' group for it.
4363 * Obsolete patches:
4364 - Solar Designer's privsep+compression patch for Linux 2.2 (see
4365 1:3.3p1-0.0woody1).
4366 - Hostbased auth ssh-keysign backport (see 1:3.4p1-4).
4367
4368 * Remove duplicated phrase in ssh_config(5) (closes: #152404).
4369 * Source the debconf confmodule at the top of the postrm rather than at
4370 the bottom, to avoid making future non-idempotency problems worse (see
4371 #151035).
4372 * Debconf templates:
4373 - Add Polish (thanks, Grzegorz Kusnierz).
4374 - Update French (thanks, Denis Barbier; closes: #132509).
4375 - Update Spanish (thanks, Carlos Valdivia Yagüe; closes: #164716).
4376 * Write a man page for gnome-ssh-askpass, and link it to ssh-askpass.1 if
4377 this is the selected ssh-askpass alternative (closes: #67775).

4388 * s/dile/idle/ in ssh_config(5) (closes: #118331).

5131 * New upstream release
5132 * patch sshd to create extra xauth key required for localhost
5133 (closes: #49944) *** RC ***
5134 * FallbacktoRsh now defaults to ``no'' to match impression
5135 given in sshd_config
5136 * stop setting suid bit on ssh (closes: #58711, #58558)
5137 This breaks Rhosts authentication (which nobody uses) and allows
5138 the LD_PRELOAD trick to get socks working, so seems like a net benefit.

5150 * Integrated man page addition for PrintLastLog.
5151 This bug was filed on "openssh", and I ended up
5152 creating my own patch for this (closes: #59054)
5153 * Improved error message when ssh_exchange_identification
5154 gets EOF (closes: #58904)
5155 * Fixed typo (your -> you're) in debian/preinst.
5156 * Added else-clauses to config to make this upgradepath possible:
5157 oldssh -> openssh preinst fails due to upgrade_to_openssh=false
5158 -> ssh-nonfree -> openssh. Without these, debconf remembered
5159 the old answer, config didn't force asking it, and preinst always
5160 aborted (closes: #56596, #57782)
5161 * Moved setting upgrade_to_openssh isdefault flag to the place
5162 where preinst would abort. This means no double question to most
5163 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
5164 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
5165 use_old_init_script, as the situation is a bit different, and
5166 less common (closes: #54010, #56224)
5167 * Check for existance of ssh-keygen before attempting to use it in
5168 preinst, added warning for non-existant ssh-keygen in config. This
5169 happens when the old ssh is removed (say, due to ssh-nonfree getting
5170 installed).

5189 (closes: #58429)
5190 * Added the UPGRADING file to the package.
5191 * Added frozen to the changelog line and recompiled before
