72 * Restore direct test dependencies on openssl, putty-tools, and
73 python-twisted-conch; these are really only indirect dependencies via
74 openssh-tests, but including them means that this package will be
75 retested when they change.

83 * Drop "set -x" verbosity from the autopkgtest; I think we can do without
84 this in most cases nowadays.
85 * Add an openssh-tests binary package containing enough files to run the

87 efficiently, as it doesn't have to build part of the source tree again.

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

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

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

428openssh (1:7.6p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
429
430 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.6):
431 - CVE-2017-15906: sftp-server(8): In read-only mode, sftp-server was
432 incorrectly permitting creation of zero-length files. Reported by
433 Michal Zalewski.
434 - ssh(1): Delete SSH protocol version 1 support, associated
435 configuration options and documentation (LP: #1584321).
436 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove support for the hmac-ripemd160 MAC.
437 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove support for the arcfour, blowfish and CAST
438 ciphers.
439 - Refuse RSA keys <1024 bits in length and improve reporting for keys
440 that do not meet this requirement.
441 - ssh(1): Do not offer CBC ciphers by default.
442 - ssh(1): Add RemoteCommand option to specify a command in the ssh
443 config file instead of giving it on the client's command line. This
444 allows the configuration file to specify the command that will be
445 executed on the remote host.
446 - sshd(8): Add ExposeAuthInfo option that enables writing details of the
447 authentication methods used (including public keys where applicable)
448 to a file that is exposed via a $SSH_USER_AUTH environment variable in
449 the subsequent session.
450 - ssh(1): Add support for reverse dynamic forwarding. In this mode, ssh
451 will act as a SOCKS4/5 proxy and forward connections to destinations
452 requested by the remote SOCKS client. This mode is requested using
453 extended syntax for the -R and RemoteForward options and, because it
454 is implemented solely at the client, does not require the server be
455 updated to be supported.
456 - sshd(8): Allow LogLevel directive in sshd_config Match blocks.
457 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow inclusion of arbitrary string or flag certificate
458 extensions and critical options.
459 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to use a key held in ssh-agent as a CA
460 when signing certificates.
461 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Allow IPQoS=none in ssh/sshd to not set an explicit
462 ToS/DSCP value and just use the operating system default.
463 - ssh-add(1): Add -q option to make ssh-add quiet on success.
464 - ssh(1): Expand the StrictHostKeyChecking option with two new settings.
465 The first "accept-new" will automatically accept hitherto-unseen keys
466 but will refuse connections for changed or invalid hostkeys. This is
467 a safer subset of the current behaviour of StrictHostKeyChecking=no.
468 The second setting "off", is a synonym for the current behaviour of
469 StrictHostKeyChecking=no: accept new host keys, and continue
470 connection for hosts with incorrect hostkeys. A future release will
471 change the meaning of StrictHostKeyChecking=no to the behaviour of
472 "accept-new".
473 - ssh(1): Add SyslogFacility option to ssh(1) matching the equivalent
474 option in sshd(8).
475 - ssh(1): Use HostKeyAlias if specified instead of hostname for matching
476 host certificate principal names.
477 - sftp(1): Implement sorting for globbed ls.
478 - ssh(1): Add a user@host prefix to client's "Permission denied"
479 messages, useful in particular when using "stacked" connections (e.g.
480 ssh -J) where it's not clear which host is denying.
481 - ssh(1): Accept unknown EXT_INFO extension values that contain \0
482 characters. These are legal, but would previously cause fatal
483 connection errors if received.
484 - sftp(1): Print '?' instead of incorrect link count (that the protocol
485 doesn't provide) for remote listings.
486 - ssh(1): Return failure rather than fatal() for more cases during
487 session multiplexing negotiations. Causes the session to fall back to
488 a non-mux connection if they occur.
489 - ssh(1): Mention that the server may send debug messages to explain
490 public key authentication problems under some circumstances.
491 - Translate OpenSSL error codes to better report incorrect passphrase
492 errors when loading private keys.
493 - sshd(8): Adjust compatibility patterns for WinSCP to correctly
494 identify versions that implement only the legacy DH group exchange
495 scheme (closes: #877800).
496 - ssh(1): Print the "Killed by signal 1" message only at LogLevel
497 verbose so that it is not shown at the default level; prevents it from
498 appearing during ssh -J and equivalent ProxyCommand configs.
499 - ssh-keygen(1): When generating all hostkeys (ssh-keygen -A), clobber
500 existing keys if they exist but are zero length. Zero-length keys
501 could previously be made if ssh-keygen failed or was interrupted part
502 way through generating them.
503 - ssh-keyscan(1): Avoid double-close() on file descriptors.
504 - sshd(8): Avoid reliance on shared use of pointers shared between
505 monitor and child sshd processes.
506 - sshd_config(8): Document available AuthenticationMethods.
507 - ssh(1): Avoid truncation in some login prompts.
508 - ssh(1): Make "--" before the hostname terminate argument processing
509 after the hostname too (closes: #873201).
510 - ssh-keygen(1): Switch from aes256-cbc to aes256-ctr for encrypting
511 new-style private keys.
512 - ssh(1): Warn and do not attempt to use keys when the public and
513 private halves do not match.
514 - sftp(1): Don't print verbose error message when ssh disconnects from
515 under sftp.
516 - sshd(8): Fix keepalive scheduling problem: prevent activity on a
517 forwarded port from preventing the keepalive from being sent.
518 - sshd(8): When started without root privileges, don't require the
519 privilege separation user or path to exist.
520 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Correctness fix for channels implementation: accept
521 channel IDs greater than 0x7FFFFFFF.
522 - sshd(8): Expose list of completed authentication methods to PAM via
523 the SSH_AUTH_INFO_0 PAM environment variable.
524 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix several problems in the tun/tap forwarding code,
525 mostly to do with host/network byte order confusion.
526 - sshd(8): Avoid Linux seccomp violations on ppc64le over the socketcall
527 syscall.
528 * Build-depend on debhelper (>= 9.20160709~) rather than dh-systemd.
529 * Change priorities of ssh and ssh-krb5 binary packages to optional, since
530 "Priority: extra" is now deprecated.
531 * Use HTTPS form of copyright-format URL.
532 * Adjust "Running sshd from inittab" instructions in README.Debian to
533 recommend using service(8) rather than calling the init script directly.
534 * Policy version 4.1.0.
535 * Adjust "Per-connection sshd instances with systemd" instructions in
536 README.Debian to recommend using a drop-in file rather than copying and

633
634 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.5):
635 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle
636 countermeasures that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH
637 7.3 to proceed. Note that the OpenSSH client disables CBC ciphers by
638 default, sshd offers them as lowest-preference options and will remove
639 them by default entirely in the next release.
640 - This release deprecates the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation option,
641 thereby making privilege separation mandatory (closes: #407754).
642 - The format of several log messages emitted by the packet code has
643 changed to include additional information about the user and their
644 authentication state. Software that monitors ssh/sshd logs may need
645 to account for these changes.
646 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
647 algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
648 - sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start messages
649 are sent out of sequence.
650 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in configuration
651 files.
652 - sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the server-sig-algs
653 extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were not being correctly
654 advertised.
655 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
656 known_hosts processing.
657 - ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
658 file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
659 - ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option, accept
660 RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype. Previously,
661 ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-* methods were
662 enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa method.
663 - ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file lines.
664 - Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat and
665 FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor leaks in
666 error paths.
667 - ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
668 "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
669 - ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
670 line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat square
671 bracket characters specially.
672 - Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol 1
673 support from the server, including the server banner string being
674 incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing error
675 messages from ssh-keyscan, and a segfault in sshd if protocol v.1 was
676 enabled for the client and sshd_config contained references to legacy
677 keys.
678 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
679 - sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server returns
680 zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
681 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
682 encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
683 - ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
684 printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
685 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
686 feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
687 - sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
688 AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
689 matched early.
690 - ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
691 cancellation.
692 - ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files can't
693 be opened.
694 - sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token in
695 AuthorizedKeysCommand.
696 - sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM.
697 - ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and common
698 32-bit compatibility library directories.
699 - sftp-client(1): Fix non-exploitable integer overflow in SSH2_FXP_NAME
700 response handling.
701 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression in 7.4 of deleting PKCS#11-hosted keys.
702 It was not possible to delete them except by specifying their full
703 physical path.
704 - sshd(8): Avoid sandbox errors for Linux S390 systems using an ICA
705 crypto coprocessor.
706 - sshd(8): Fix non-exploitable weakness in seccomp-bpf sandbox arg
707 inspection.
708 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sftp(1): Fix output truncation for various that
709 contain non-printable characters where the codeset in use is ASCII.

809
810 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
811 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
812 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
813 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
814 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
815 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
816 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
817 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
818 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
819 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
820 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
821 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
822 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
823 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
824 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
825 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
826 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
827 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
828 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
829 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
830 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
831 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
832 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
833 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
834 (closes: #848714).
835 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
836 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
837 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
838 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
839 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
840 years) (closes: #848715).
841 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
842 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
843 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
844 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
845 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
846 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
847 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
848 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
849 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
850 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
851 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
852 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
853 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
854 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
855 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
856 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
857 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
858 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
859 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
860 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
861 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
862 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
863 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
864 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
865 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
866 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
867 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
868 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
869 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
870 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
871 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
872 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
873 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
874 way of restricting an account.
875 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
876 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
877 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
878 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
879 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
880 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
881 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
882 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
883 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
884 configuration error.
885 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
886 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
887 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
888 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
889 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
890 being offered.
891 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
892 that have no corresponding bare public key.
893 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
894 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
895 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
896 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
897 messages.
898 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
899 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
900 - sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before suspending
901 sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode correctly if
902 suspended during a password prompt.
903 - ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
904 prompt (LP: #1646813).
905 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-info
906 messages.
907 - sshd(8): Fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-sequence
908 NEWKEYS message.
909 - sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in the
910 server-sig-algs extension.
911 - sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
912 - sshd(8): More strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
913 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
914 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
915 configuration.
916 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
917 configuration examples.
918 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
919 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that
920 locale's unique handling of the letters 'i' and 'I' (LP: #1638338).
921 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
922 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
923 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
924 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
925 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
926 generated on new installations.
927 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
928 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
929 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
930 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
931 #419574, #848089):
932 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
933 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
934 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
935 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
936 I've missed some.
937 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
938 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
939 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
940 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
941 than "yes", per upstream.
942 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
943 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to
944 300 by default if BatchMode is set is Debian-specific (closes: #765630).
945 * Build gnome-ssh-askpass with GTK+ 3 (LP: #801187).
946 * When running regression tests under autopkgtest, use a non-root user
947 with passwordless sudo.

989
990 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
991 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
992 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
993 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
994 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
995 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
996 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
997 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
998 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
999 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
1000 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
1001 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
1002 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
1003 though no such leakage has been observed.
1004 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
1005 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
1006 "jump hosts".
1007 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
1008 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.
1009 - ssh(1): Allow ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings to be
1010 optionally overridden when using ssh -W.
1011 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Implement support for the IUTF8 terminal mode as per
1012 draft-sgtatham-secsh-iutf8-00 (closes: #337041, LP: #394570).
1013 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for additional fixed Diffie-Hellman 2K,
1014 4K and 8K groups from draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2-03.
1015 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sshd(8): Support SHA256 and SHA512 RSA
1016 signatures in certificates.
1017 - ssh(1): Add an Include directive for ssh_config(5) files (closes:
1018 #536031).
1019 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
1020 from the server.
1021 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
1022 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
1023 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
1024 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
1025 multiple authentication.
1026 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
1027 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
1028 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
1029 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
1030 are enabled.
1031 - sshd(8): Remove fallback from moduli to obsolete "primes" file that
1032 was deprecated in 2001 (LP: #1528251).
1033 - sshd_config(5): Correct description of UseDNS: it affects ssh hostname
1034 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
1035 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
1036 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
1037 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf
1038 sandbox.
1039 - scp(1): Respect the local user's LC_CTYPE locale (closes: #396295).
1040 - Take character display widths into account for the progressmeter
1041 (closes: #407088).

1145 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
1146 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
1147 default in ssh:
1148 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
1149 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
1150 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
1151 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
1152 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
1153 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
1154 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
1155 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
1156 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
1157 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
1158 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
1159 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
1160 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
1161 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
1162 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
1163 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
1164 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
1165 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
1166 'confirm').
1167 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
1168 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
1169 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
1170 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
1171 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
1172 we might implement in the future.
1173 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
1174 certificates.
1175 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
1176 supported formats (closes: #811125).
1177 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
1178 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
1179 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
1180 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
1181 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
1182 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
1183 default.
1184 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
1185 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
1186 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
1187 certificates instead of plain keys.
1188 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
1189 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
1190 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
1191 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate
1192 recursive uploads (regression in OpenSSH 6.8; LP: #1553378).
1193 * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs, and link to cgit rather than gitweb.
1194 * Restore slogin symlinks for compatibility, although they were removed

1276
1277 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.0, closes:
1278 #785190):
1279 - Support for the legacy SSH version 1 protocol is disabled by default
1280 at compile time.
1281 - Support for the 1024-bit diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 key exchange is
1282 disabled by default at run-time. It may be re-enabled using the
1283 instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
1284 - Support for ssh-dss, ssh-dss-cert-* host and user keys is disabled by
1285 default at run-time. These may be re-enabled using the instructions
1286 at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
1287 - Support for the legacy v00 cert format has been removed.
1288 - The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has changed
1289 from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
1290 - PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
1291 interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
1292 hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
1293 keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those were
1294 enabled).
1295 - ssh_config(5): Add PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes option to control which
1296 public key types are available for user authentication.
1297 - sshd_config(5): Add HostKeyAlgorithms option to control which public
1298 key types are offered for host authentications.
1299 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Extend Ciphers, MACs, KexAlgorithms,
1300 HostKeyAlgorithms, PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and HostbasedKeyTypes
1301 options to allow appending to the default set of algorithms instead of
1302 replacing it. Options may now be prefixed with a '+' to append to the
1303 default, e.g. "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss".
1304 - sshd_config(5): PermitRootLogin now accepts an argument of
1305 'prohibit-password' as a less-ambiguous synonym of 'without-
1306 password'.
1307 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatability workarounds for Cisco and more
1308 PuTTY versions.
1309 - Fix some omissions and errors in the PROTOCOL and PROTOCOL.mux
1310 documentation relating to Unix domain socket forwarding.
1311 - ssh(1): Improve the ssh(1) manual page to include a better description
1312 of Unix domain socket forwarding (closes: #779068).
1313 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Skip uninitialised PKCS#11 slots, fixing
1314 failures to load keys when they are present.
1315 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Do not ignore PKCS#11 hosted keys that wth empty
1316 CKA_ID.
1317 - sshd(8): Clarify documentation for UseDNS option.
1318 - Check realpath(3) behaviour matches what sftp-server requires and use
1319 a replacement if necessary.
1320 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.1):
1321 - sshd(8): OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in PermitRootLogin=
1322 prohibit-password/without-password that could, depending on
1323 compile-time configuration, permit password authentication to root
1324 while preventing other forms of authentication. This problem was
1325 reported by Mantas Mikulenas.
1326 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.
1327 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
1328 - Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
1329 memory, etc) in ssh(1) and ssh-keygen(1). Reported by Mateusz
1330 Kocielski.
1331 * Change "PermitRootLogin without-password" to the new preferred spelling
1332 of "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password" in sshd_config, and update
1333 documentation to reflect the new upstream default.
1334 * Enable conch interoperability tests under autopkgtest.

1363
1364 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
1365 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
1366 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
1367 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
1368 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
1369 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
1370 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
1371 from hex to base64.
1372 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
1373 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
1374 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
1375 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
1376 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
1377 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
1378 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
1379 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
1380 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
1381 option (default off).
1382 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
1383 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
1384 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
1385 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
1386 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
1387 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
1388 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
1389 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
1390 authentication.
1391 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
1392 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
1393 decryption.
1394 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
1395 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
1396 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
1397 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
1398 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
1399 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
1400 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
1401 all.
1402 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
1403 against MaxAuthTries.
1404 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
1405 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
1406 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
1407 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
1408 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
1409 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
1410 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
1411 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
1412 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
1413 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against
1414 servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol (closes: #241119).
1415 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were
1416 being lost as comment fields (closes: #787776).
1417 - ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse
1418 phase to be applied (they were being ignored; closes: #774369).
1419 - ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the
1420 second pass through the config files always run when host name
1421 canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes)
1422 - ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection
1423 multiplexing is in use.
1424 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH
1425 formats.
1426 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use.
1427 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
1428 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
1429 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
1430 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
1431 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
1432 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
1433 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
1434 by Jann Horn.
1435 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
1436 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
1437 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
1438 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
1439 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
1440 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
1441 (closes: #740494).
1442 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
1443 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
1444 file.
1445 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
1446 devices.
1447 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
1448 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
1449 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
1450 enabling debug mode.
1451 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
1452 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
1453 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
1454 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
1455 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
1456 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).

1458 parsing.
1459 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
1460 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
1461 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
1462 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from
1463 the list of active forwards.
1464 - sshd(8): Make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options
1465 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
1466 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
1467 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
1468 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
1469 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
1470 options to appear in any order.
1471 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
1472 and ForceCommand.
1473 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
1474 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
1475 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
1476 forwarding requested.
1477 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
1478 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
1479 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
1480 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
1481 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
1482 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
1483 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
1484 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
1485 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
1486 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
1487 host key fingerprints.
1488 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
1489 language consistent.
1490 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
1491 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
1492 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
1493 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
1494 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
1495 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
1496 to fix security issues:
1497 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
1498 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
1499 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
1500 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
1501 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
1502 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
1503 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
1504 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
1505 Moritz Jodeit.
1506 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
1507 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
1508 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
1509 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
1510 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
1511 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
1512 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
1513 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
1514 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
1515 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
1516 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
1517 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
1518 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
1519 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
1520 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
1521 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

1578
1579 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
1580 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
1581 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
1582 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
1583 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
1584 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
1585 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
1586 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
1587 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
1588 key types.
1589 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
1590 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
1591 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
1592 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
1593 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
1594 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
1595 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
1596 option.
1597 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
1598 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
1599 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
1600 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
1601 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
1602 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
1603 authentication success / failure messages.
1604 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
1605 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
1606 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
1607 #734553).
1608 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
1609 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
1610 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
1611 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
1612 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
1613 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
1614 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
1615 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
1616 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
1617 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
1618 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
1619 field.
1620 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
1621 simply a new enough dpkg.
1622 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
1623 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
1624 field.
1625 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
1626 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

1781 * Bump guard version for sysvinit->systemd transition to 1:6.5p1-3; we may

1783 * Remove tests for whether /dev/null is a character device from the

1812 LP: #1275068):
1813 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
1814 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
1815 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
1816 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking

1818 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
1819 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
1820 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
1821 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
1822 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
1823 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
1824 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See
1825 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full

1919
1920 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
1921 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
1922 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
1923 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
1924 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
1925 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
1926 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
1927 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
1928 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
1929 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
1930 the packaging.
1931 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
1932 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
1933 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
1934 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
1935 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
1936 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
1937 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
1938 openssh-server.postinst.
1939 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
1940 via dh_installdeb.
1941 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
1942 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
1943 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
1944 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
1945 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
1946 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
1947 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
1948 chroot.
1949 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
1950 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
1951 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
1952 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.
1953 * This removes the last of our uses of debconf (closes: #221531).

2129 - Introduce sandboxing of the pre-auth privsep child using an optional

2131 mandatory restrictions on the syscalls the privsep child can perform.
2132 - Add new SHA256-based HMAC transport integrity modes from

2134 - The pre-authentication sshd(8) privilege separation slave process now
2135 logs via a socket shared with the master process, avoiding the need to
2136 maintain /dev/log inside the chroot (closes: #75043, #429243,
2137 #599240).
2138 - ssh(1) now warns when a server refuses X11 forwarding (closes:
2139 #504757).
2140 - sshd_config(5)'s AuthorizedKeysFile now accepts multiple paths,
2141 separated by whitespace (closes: #76312). The authorized_keys2
2142 fallback is deprecated but documented (closes: #560156).
2143 - ssh(1) and sshd(8): set IPv6 traffic class from IPQoS, as well as IPv4
2144 ToS/DSCP (closes: #498297).
2145 - ssh-add(1) now accepts keys piped from standard input. E.g. "ssh-add
2146 - < /path/to/key" (closes: #229124).
2147 - Clean up lost-passphrase text in ssh-keygen(1) (closes: #444691).

2226 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.7):
2227 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
2228 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
2229 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
2230 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
2231 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
2232 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
2233 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
2234 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
2235 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
2236 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
2237 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
2238 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
2239 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
2240 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
2241 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
2242 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
2243 (closes: #594687).
2244 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
2245 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
2246 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
2247 it to be stripped off).
2248 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2249 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
2250 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
2251 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
2252 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
2253 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
2254 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
2255 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
2256 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
2257 * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this

2375
2376 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
2377 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
2378 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
2379 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
2380 or on the command-line.
2381 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
2382 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
2383 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
2384 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
2385 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
2386 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
2387 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
2388 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
2389 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
2390 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
2391 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
2392 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
2393 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
2394 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
2395 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
2396 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
2397 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
2398 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
2399 (closes: #270399, #428082).
2400 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
2401 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
2402 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
2403 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
2404
2405 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
2406 patches apply with offsets.
2407 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
2408 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
2409 around with uudecode.
2410 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
2411 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
2412 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
2413 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
2414 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
2415 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
2416 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
2417 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
2418 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
2419 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
2420 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
2421 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
2422 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
2423 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
2424 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
2425 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
2426 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
2427 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
2428 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
2429 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
2430 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
2431 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
2432 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
2433 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
2434 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
2435 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
2436 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
2437 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
2438 * Policy version 3.8.4:
2439 - Add a Homepage field.

2473 * Backport from upstream:
2474 - Do not fall back to adding keys without constraints (ssh-add -c / -t
2475 ...) when the agent refuses the constrained add request. This was a
2476 useful migration measure back in 2002 when constraints were new, but
2477 just adds risk now (LP: #209447).
2478 * Drop change from 1:3.8p1-3 to avoid setresuid() and setresgid() system
2479 calls. This only applied to Linux 2.2, which it's no longer feasible to
2480 run anyway (see 1:5.2p1-2 changelog).

2486 [ Colin Watson ]
2487 * Backport from upstream:
2488 - After sshd receives a SIGHUP, ignore subsequent HUPs while sshd
2489 re-execs itself. Prevents two HUPs in quick succession from resulting
2490 in sshd dying (LP: #497781).
2491 - Output a debug if we can't open an existing keyfile (LP: #505301).
2492 * Use host compiler for ssh-askpass-gnome when cross-compiling.
2493 * Don't run tests when cross-compiling.
2494 * Drop change from 1:3.6.1p2-5 to disable cmsg_type check for file
2495 descriptor passing when running on Linux 2.0. The previous stable
2496 release of Debian dropped support for Linux 2.4, let alone 2.0, so this
2497 very likely has no remaining users depending on it.

2508 * New upstream release (closes: #536182). Yes, I know 5.3p1 has been out

2510 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
2511 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
2512 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
2513 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
2514 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
2515 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
2516 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
2517 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
2518 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
2519 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
2520 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
2521 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the
2522 internal-sftp server (closes: #524423, LP: #362511).
2523 - Add AllowAgentForwarding to available Match keywords list (closes:
2524 #540623).
2525 - Make ssh(1) send the correct channel number for
2526 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
2527 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
2528 openssh-5.1.
2529 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
2530 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
2531 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).
2532 - Disable nonfunctional ssh(1) ~C escape handler in multiplex slave
2533 connections (closes: #507541).
2534 - Fix "whitepsace" typo in ssh_config(5) (closes: #514313, LP: #303835).

2537 including cascading credentials support (LP: #416958).

2552 * Cope with insserv reordering of init script links.
2553 * Remove init script stop link in rc1, as killprocs handles it already.

2618 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there

2665
2666 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
2667 backported to 4.7p1:
2668 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
2669 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
2670 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
2671 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
2672 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
2673 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
2674 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
2675 inside the chroot environment.
2676 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
2677 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
2678 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
2679 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
2680 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
2681 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
2682 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
2683 also allow Protocol 1.
2684 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
2685 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
2686 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
2687 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
2688 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
2689 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
2690 embedded backslash escape sequences.
2691 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
2692 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
2693 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
2694 /bin/sh.
2695 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
2696 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
2697 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
2698 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
2699 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
2700 connections via a ProxyCommand.
2701 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
2702 #140828).
2703 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
2704 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
2705 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
2706 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
2707 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
2708 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
2709 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
2710 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
2711 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
2712 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
2713 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
2714 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
2715 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
2716 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
2717 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
2718 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
2719 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
2720 (LP: #119295).
2721 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
2722 chroot (LP: #237557).
2723 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
2724 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
2725 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
2726 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
2727 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
2728 rejection of changed host keys.
2729 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
2730 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
2731 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
2732 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
2733 matching.
2734 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
2735 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
2736 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
2737 source address and hostname) to test the application of
2738 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
2739 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
2740 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
2741 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
2742 connections only).
2743 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
2744 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
2745 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
2746 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
2747 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
2748 the server).
2749 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
2750 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
2751 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
2752 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
2753 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
2754 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
2755 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
2756 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
2757 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
2758 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
2759 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
2760 hijacked.
2761 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
2762 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
2763 fingerprint.
2764 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
2765 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
2766 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
2767 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
2768 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
2769 forwarder.
2770 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
2771 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
2772 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
2773 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
2774 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
2775 address and give up if that failed.
2776 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
2777 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
2778 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
2779 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
2780 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
2781 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
2782 from 768 to 1024 bits.
2783 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
2784 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
2785 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
2786 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
2787 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
2788 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
2789 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
2790 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
2791 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
2792 blocks.
2793 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
2794 that are available to a primary connection.
2795 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
2796 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
2797 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
2798 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
2799 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
2800 server runs out of file descriptors).
2801 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
2802 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
2803 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
2804 platforms.
2805 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
2806 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
2807 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
2808 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
2809 targets).
2810 * Merge from Ubuntu:

3048 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
3049 (closes: #444738).
3050 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
3051 installations are unchanged.
3052 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
3053 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
3054 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
3055 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
3056 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
3057 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
3058 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
3059 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
3060 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
3061 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
3062 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
3063 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
3064 without passing the full exit status.
3065 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
3066 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
3067 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
3068 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
3069 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
3070 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
3071 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
3072 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
3073 mechanisms.
3074 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
3075 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
3076 into the client.
3077 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
3078 have been established.
3079 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
3080 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
3081 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
3082 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
3083 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed

3197 * New upstream release (closes: #395507, #397961, #420035). Important
3198 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
3199 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.4):
3200 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
3201 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
3202 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
3203 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
3204 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
3205 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
3206 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
3207 be added in future releases.
3208 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
3209 final hash of SHA256.
3210 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
3211 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
3212 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
3213 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
3214 option.
3215 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
3216 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
3217 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
3218 establish.
3219 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
3220 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
3221 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
3222 (closes: #50612).
3223 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
3224 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
3225 established.
3226 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
3227 specification of command-line arguments.
3228 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
3229 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
3230 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
3231 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
3232 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
3233 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
3234 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
3235 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
3236 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
3237 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
3238 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
3239 liberal (closes: #103677).
3240 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
3241 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
3242 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
3243 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
3244 in sshd_config.
3245 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
3246 progress meter (closes: #257524).
3247 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
3248 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
3249 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
3250 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
3251 install ChangeLog.gssapi.
3252 * Build the .deb --with-ssl-engine (closes: #408027, LP: #119295).
3253 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
3254 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).
3255 * Move init script start links to S16, move rc1 stop link to K84, and
3256 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
3257 closes: #122188).
3258 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
3259 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
3260 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
3261 * Merge from Ubuntu:
3262 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
3263 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
3264 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
3265 the default path.
3266 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
3267 openssh-client dependency.

3337 [ Colin Watson ]
3338 * Drop versioning on ssh/ssh-krb5 Replaces, as otherwise it isn't
3339 sufficient to replace conffiles (closes: #402804).
3340 * Make GSSAPICleanupCreds a compatibility alias for
3341 GSSAPICleanupCredentials. Mark GSSUseSessionCCache and
3342 GSSAPIUseSessionCredCache as known-but-unsupported options, and migrate
3343 away from them on upgrade.
3344 * It turns out that the people who told me that removing a conffile in the
3345 preinst was sufficient to have dpkg replace it without prompting when
3346 moving a conffile between packages were very much mistaken. As far as I
3347 can tell, the only way to do this reliably is to write out the desired
3348 new text of the conffile in the preinst. This is gross, and requires
3349 shipping the text of all conffiles in the preinst too, but there's
3350 nothing for it. Fortunately this nonsense is only required for smooth
3351 upgrades from sarge.
3352 * debconf template translations:

3364 (thanks, Jari Aalto; closes: #335259).
3365 * Fix quoting error in configure.ac and regenerate configure (thanks, Ben
3366 Pfaff; closes: #391248).
3367 * When installing openssh-client or openssh-server from scratch, remove
3368 any unchanged conffiles from the pre-split ssh package to work around a
3369 bug in sarge's dpkg (thanks, Justin Pryzby and others; closes: #335276).

3415 - CVE-2006-4924: Fix a pre-authentication denial of service found by
3416 Tavis Ormandy, that would cause sshd(8) to spin until the login grace
3417 time expired (closes: #389995).
3418 - CVE-2006-5051: Fix an unsafe signal hander reported by Mark Dowd. The
3419 signal handler was vulnerable to a race condition that could be
3420 exploited to perform a pre-authentication denial of service. On
3421 portable OpenSSH, this vulnerability could theoretically lead to

3466
3467 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
3468 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
3469 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
3470 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
3471 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
3472 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
3473 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
3474 scp (closes: #349645).
3475 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
3476 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
3477 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
3478 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
3479 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
3480 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3481 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
3482 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
3483 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
3484 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
3485 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
3486 background at the time of session exit.
3487 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
3488 without arguments (closes: #114894).
3489 - Fix timing variance for valid vs. invalid accounts when attempting
3490 Kerberos authentication.
3491 - Ensure that ssh always returns code 255 on internal error
3492 (closes: #259865).
3493 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
3494 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
3495 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
3496 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:
3497 https://launchpad.net/bugs/25528).
3498 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
3499 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
3500 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
3501 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
3502 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
3503 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
3504 - Many manual page improvements.
3505 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
3506 possible crashes.
3507 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
3508 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.3p2-gsskex-20060223.patch
3509 (closes: #352042).
3510 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
3511 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
3512 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
3513 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
3514 (closes: #349896).
3515 * Rephrase ssh/new_config and ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen debconf
3516 templates to make boolean short descriptions end with a question mark
3517 and to avoid use of the first person.

3588 different version of the gssapi authentication method (thanks, Aaron M.
3589 Ucko; closes: #328388).

3601 Frost).
3602 - Build-depend on libkrb5-dev and configure --with-kerberos5=/usr.

3612 * New upstream release.
3613 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2797): Fix a bug introduced in OpenSSH 4.0 that
3614 caused GatewayPorts to be incorrectly activated for dynamic ("-D")
3615 port forwardings when no listen address was explicitly specified
3616 (closes: #326065).
3617 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2798): Fix improper delegation of GSSAPI
3618 credentials. This code is only built in openssh-krb5, not openssh, but
3619 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
3620 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
3621 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
3622 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
3623 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable
3624 compression on the client or set "Compression yes" (losing this
3625 security benefit) on the server.
3626 - Increase the default size of new RSA/DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3627 from 1024 to 2048 bits (closes: #181162).
3628 - Many bugfixes and improvements to connection multiplexing.
3629 - Don't pretend to accept $HOME (closes: #208648).
3630 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
3631 * openssh-client and openssh-server conflict with pre-split ssh to avoid
3632 problems when ssh is left un-upgraded (closes: #324695).
3633 * Set X11Forwarding to yes in the default sshd_config (new installs only).
3634 At least when X11UseLocalhost is turned on, which is the default, the
3635 security risks of using X11 forwarding are risks to the client, not to
3636 the server (closes: #320104).

3683 - Added SELinux capability, and turned it on be default. Added
3684 restorecon calls in preinst and postinst (should not matter if the
3685 machine is not SELinux aware). By and large, the changes made should
3686 have no effect unless the rules file calls --with-selinux; and even
3687 then there should be no performance hit for machines not actively
3688 running SELinux.
3689 - Modified the preinst and postinst to call restorecon to set the
3690 security context for the generated public key files.
3691 - Added a comment to /etc/pam.d/ssh to indicate that an SELinux system
3692 may want to also include pam_selinux.so.
3693 * Re-enable ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, now that its build-dependencies
3694 are available.

3712 and has not been the default since openssh 1:3.0.1p1-1. Users who need
3713 this should edit sshd_config instead (closes: #147212).
3714 * Since ssh-keysign isn't used by default (you need to set
3715 EnableSSHKeysign to "yes" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config), having a debconf
3716 question to ask whether it should be setuid is overkill, and the

3718 ssh-keysign setuid in openssh-client.deb, and set a statoverride if the
3719 debconf question was previously set to false.

3734 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
3735 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may

3737 it seems I can't win.
3738 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning

3752 - Port-forwarding specifications now take optional bind addresses, and
3753 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
3754 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
3755 (closes: #87253, #192206).
3756 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
3757 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
3758 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
3759 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
3760 (closes: #287013).
3761 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
3762 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
3763 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
3764 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
3765 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
3766 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).

3768 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;

3771 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
3772 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
3773 - Link with -lcrypt.
3774 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
3775 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
3776 satisfy build-dependencies.
3777 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
3778 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
3779 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
3780 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
3781 (closes: #307069).

3894 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
3895 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends

3897 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
3898 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
3899 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
3900 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged

4076 * New upstream release (closes: #232281):
4077 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
4078 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
4079 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
4080 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
4081 syslog (closes: #171673).
4082 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
4083 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
4084 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
4085 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
4086 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
4087 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
4088 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
4089 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
4090 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
4091 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
4092 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
4093 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
4094 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
4095 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
4096 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
4097 ssh_config(5) for details.
4098 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
4099 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
4100 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
4101 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
4102 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.

4104 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
4105 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.

4279 and generally update the "/usr/bin/ssh not SUID" entry.
4280 * More README.Debian work:
4281 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
4282 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
4283 should probably be sorted by version somehow.

4363 * Replace db_text with db_input throughout debian/config. (db_text has
4364 been a compatibility wrapper since debconf 0.1.5.)
4365 * Warn about PermitUserEnvironment on upgrade (closes: #167895).

4393 * New upstream release.
4394 - Fixes typo in ssh-add usage (closes: #152239).
4395 - Fixes 'PermitRootLogin forced-commands-only' (closes: #166184).
4396 - ~/.ssh/environment and environment= options in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
4397 are deprecated for security reasons and will eventually go away. For
4398 now they can be re-enabled by setting 'PermitUserEnvironment yes' in
4399 sshd_config.
4400 - ssh-agent is installed setgid to prevent ptrace() attacks. The group
4401 actually doesn't matter, as it drops privileges immediately, but to
4402 avoid confusion the postinst creates a new 'ssh' group for it.
4403 * Obsolete patches:
4404 - Solar Designer's privsep+compression patch for Linux 2.2 (see
4405 1:3.3p1-0.0woody1).
4406 - Hostbased auth ssh-keysign backport (see 1:3.4p1-4).
4407
4408 * Remove duplicated phrase in ssh_config(5) (closes: #152404).
4409 * Source the debconf confmodule at the top of the postrm rather than at
4410 the bottom, to avoid making future non-idempotency problems worse (see
4411 #151035).
4412 * Debconf templates:
4413 - Add Polish (thanks, Grzegorz Kusnierz).
4414 - Update French (thanks, Denis Barbier; closes: #132509).
4415 - Update Spanish (thanks, Carlos Valdivia Yagüe; closes: #164716).
4416 * Write a man page for gnome-ssh-askpass, and link it to ssh-askpass.1 if
4417 this is the selected ssh-askpass alternative (closes: #67775).

4428 * s/dile/idle/ in ssh_config(5) (closes: #118331).

5177 This breaks Rhosts authentication (which nobody uses) and allows
5178 the LD_PRELOAD trick to get socks working, so seems like a net benefit.

5190 * Integrated man page addition for PrintLastLog.
5191 This bug was filed on "openssh", and I ended up
5192 creating my own patch for this (closes: #59054)
5193 * Improved error message when ssh_exchange_identification
5194 gets EOF (closes: #58904)
5195 * Fixed typo (your -> you're) in debian/preinst.
5196 * Added else-clauses to config to make this upgradepath possible:
5197 oldssh -> openssh preinst fails due to upgrade_to_openssh=false
5198 -> ssh-nonfree -> openssh. Without these, debconf remembered
5199 the old answer, config didn't force asking it, and preinst always
5200 aborted (closes: #56596, #57782)
5201 * Moved setting upgrade_to_openssh isdefault flag to the place
5202 where preinst would abort. This means no double question to most
5203 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
5204 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
5205 use_old_init_script, as the situation is a bit different, and
5206 less common (closes: #54010, #56224)
5207 * Check for existance of ssh-keygen before attempting to use it in
5208 preinst, added warning for non-existant ssh-keygen in config. This
5209 happens when the old ssh is removed (say, due to ssh-nonfree getting
5210 installed).
