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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

616
617 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.5):
618 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle
619 countermeasures that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH
620 7.3 to proceed. Note that the OpenSSH client disables CBC ciphers by
621 default, sshd offers them as lowest-preference options and will remove
622 them by default entirely in the next release.
623 - This release deprecates the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation option,
624 thereby making privilege separation mandatory (closes: #407754).
625 - The format of several log messages emitted by the packet code has
626 changed to include additional information about the user and their
627 authentication state. Software that monitors ssh/sshd logs may need
628 to account for these changes.
629 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
630 algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
631 - sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start messages
632 are sent out of sequence.
633 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in configuration
634 files.
635 - sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the server-sig-algs
636 extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were not being correctly
637 advertised.
638 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
639 known_hosts processing.
640 - ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
641 file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
642 - ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option, accept
643 RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype. Previously,
644 ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-* methods were
645 enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa method.
646 - ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file lines.
647 - Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat and
648 FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor leaks in
649 error paths.
650 - ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
651 "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
652 - ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
653 line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat square
654 bracket characters specially.
655 - Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol 1
656 support from the server, including the server banner string being
657 incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing error
658 messages from ssh-keyscan, and a segfault in sshd if protocol v.1 was
659 enabled for the client and sshd_config contained references to legacy
660 keys.
661 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
662 - sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server returns
663 zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
664 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
665 encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
666 - ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
667 printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
668 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
669 feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
670 - sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
671 AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
672 matched early.
673 - ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
674 cancellation.
675 - ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files can't
676 be opened.
677 - sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token in
678 AuthorizedKeysCommand.
679 - sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM.
680 - ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and common
681 32-bit compatibility library directories.
682 - sftp-client(1): Fix non-exploitable integer overflow in SSH2_FXP_NAME
683 response handling.
684 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression in 7.4 of deleting PKCS#11-hosted keys.
685 It was not possible to delete them except by specifying their full
686 physical path.
687 - sshd(8): Avoid sandbox errors for Linux S390 systems using an ICA
688 crypto coprocessor.
689 - sshd(8): Fix non-exploitable weakness in seccomp-bpf sandbox arg
690 inspection.
691 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sftp(1): Fix output truncation for various that
692 contain non-printable characters where the codeset in use is ASCII.

791openssh (1:7.4p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
792
793 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
794 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
795 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
796 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
797 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
798 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
799 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
800 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
801 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
802 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
803 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
804 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
805 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
806 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
807 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
808 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
809 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
810 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
811 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
812 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
813 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
814 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
815 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
816 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
817 (closes: #848714).
818 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
819 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
820 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
821 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
822 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
823 years) (closes: #848715).
824 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
825 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
826 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
827 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
828 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
829 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
830 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
831 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
832 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
833 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
834 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
835 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
836 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
837 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
838 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
839 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
840 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
841 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
842 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
843 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
844 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
845 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
846 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
847 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
848 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
849 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
850 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
851 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
852 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
853 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
854 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
855 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
856 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
857 way of restricting an account.
858 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
859 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
860 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
861 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
862 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
863 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
864 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
865 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
866 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
867 configuration error.
868 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
869 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
870 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
871 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
872 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
873 being offered.
874 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
875 that have no corresponding bare public key.
876 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
877 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
878 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
879 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
880 messages.
881 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
882 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
883 - sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before suspending
884 sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode correctly if
885 suspended during a password prompt.
886 - ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
887 prompt (LP: #1646813).
888 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-info
889 messages.
890 - sshd(8): Fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-sequence
891 NEWKEYS message.
892 - sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in the
893 server-sig-algs extension.
894 - sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
895 - sshd(8): More strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
896 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
897 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
898 configuration.
899 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
900 configuration examples.
901 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
902 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that
903 locale's unique handling of the letters 'i' and 'I' (LP: #1638338).
904 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
905 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
906 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
907 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
908 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
909 generated on new installations.
910 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
911 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
912 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
913 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
914 #419574, #848089):
915 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
916 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
917 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
918 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
919 I've missed some.
920 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
921 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
922 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
923 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
924 than "yes", per upstream.
925 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
926 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to
927 300 by default if BatchMode is set is Debian-specific (closes: #765630).
928 * Build gnome-ssh-askpass with GTK+ 3 (LP: #801187).
929 * When running regression tests under autopkgtest, use a non-root user
930 with passwordless sudo.

972
973 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
974 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
975 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
976 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
977 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
978 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
979 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
980 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
981 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
982 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
983 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
984 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
985 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
986 though no such leakage has been observed.
987 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
988 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
989 "jump hosts".
990 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
991 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.
992 - ssh(1): Allow ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings to be
993 optionally overridden when using ssh -W.
994 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Implement support for the IUTF8 terminal mode as per
995 draft-sgtatham-secsh-iutf8-00 (closes: #337041, LP: #394570).
996 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for additional fixed Diffie-Hellman 2K,
997 4K and 8K groups from draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2-03.
998 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sshd(8): Support SHA256 and SHA512 RSA
999 signatures in certificates.
1000 - ssh(1): Add an Include directive for ssh_config(5) files (closes:
1001 #536031).
1002 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
1003 from the server.
1004 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
1005 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
1006 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
1007 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
1008 multiple authentication.
1009 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
1010 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
1011 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
1012 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
1013 are enabled.
1014 - sshd(8): Remove fallback from moduli to obsolete "primes" file that
1015 was deprecated in 2001 (LP: #1528251).
1016 - sshd_config(5): Correct description of UseDNS: it affects ssh hostname
1017 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
1018 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
1019 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
1020 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf
1021 sandbox.
1022 - scp(1): Respect the local user's LC_CTYPE locale (closes: #396295).
1023 - Take character display widths into account for the progressmeter
1024 (closes: #407088).

1052 killed, you can recover using "dpkg --unpack" on this openssh-server
1053 .deb, followed by "dpkg --configure -a".
1054 * Recommend libpam-systemd from openssh-server. It's a much better

1128 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
1129 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
1130 default in ssh:
1131 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
1132 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
1133 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
1134 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
1135 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
1136 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
1137 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
1138 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
1139 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
1140 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
1141 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
1142 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
1143 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
1144 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
1145 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
1146 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
1147 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
1148 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
1149 'confirm').
1150 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
1151 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
1152 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
1153 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
1154 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
1155 we might implement in the future.
1156 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
1157 certificates.
1158 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
1159 supported formats (closes: #811125).
1160 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
1161 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
1162 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
1163 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
1164 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
1165 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
1166 default.
1167 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
1168 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
1169 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
1170 certificates instead of plain keys.
1171 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
1172 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
1173 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
1174 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate
1175 recursive uploads (regression in OpenSSH 6.8; LP: #1553378).
1176 * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs, and link to cgit rather than gitweb.
1177 * Restore slogin symlinks for compatibility, although they were removed
1178 upstream.

1259
1260 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.0, closes:
1261 #785190):
1262 - Support for the legacy SSH version 1 protocol is disabled by default
1263 at compile time.
1264 - Support for the 1024-bit diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 key exchange is
1265 disabled by default at run-time. It may be re-enabled using the
1266 instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
1267 - Support for ssh-dss, ssh-dss-cert-* host and user keys is disabled by
1268 default at run-time. These may be re-enabled using the instructions
1269 at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
1270 - Support for the legacy v00 cert format has been removed.
1271 - The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has changed
1272 from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
1273 - PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
1274 interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
1275 hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
1276 keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those were
1277 enabled).
1278 - ssh_config(5): Add PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes option to control which
1279 public key types are available for user authentication.
1280 - sshd_config(5): Add HostKeyAlgorithms option to control which public
1281 key types are offered for host authentications.
1282 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Extend Ciphers, MACs, KexAlgorithms,
1283 HostKeyAlgorithms, PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and HostbasedKeyTypes
1284 options to allow appending to the default set of algorithms instead of
1285 replacing it. Options may now be prefixed with a '+' to append to the
1286 default, e.g. "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss".
1287 - sshd_config(5): PermitRootLogin now accepts an argument of
1288 'prohibit-password' as a less-ambiguous synonym of 'without-
1289 password'.
1290 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatability workarounds for Cisco and more
1291 PuTTY versions.
1292 - Fix some omissions and errors in the PROTOCOL and PROTOCOL.mux
1293 documentation relating to Unix domain socket forwarding.
1294 - ssh(1): Improve the ssh(1) manual page to include a better description
1295 of Unix domain socket forwarding (closes: #779068).
1296 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Skip uninitialised PKCS#11 slots, fixing
1297 failures to load keys when they are present.
1298 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Do not ignore PKCS#11 hosted keys that wth empty
1299 CKA_ID.
1300 - sshd(8): Clarify documentation for UseDNS option.
1301 - Check realpath(3) behaviour matches what sftp-server requires and use
1302 a replacement if necessary.
1303 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.1):
1304 - sshd(8): OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in PermitRootLogin=
1305 prohibit-password/without-password that could, depending on
1306 compile-time configuration, permit password authentication to root
1307 while preventing other forms of authentication. This problem was
1308 reported by Mantas Mikulenas.
1309 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.
1310 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
1311 - Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
1312 memory, etc) in ssh(1) and ssh-keygen(1). Reported by Mateusz
1313 Kocielski.
1314 * Change "PermitRootLogin without-password" to the new preferred spelling
1315 of "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password" in sshd_config, and update
1316 documentation to reflect the new upstream default.
1317 * Enable conch interoperability tests under autopkgtest.

1346
1347 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
1348 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
1349 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
1350 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
1351 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
1352 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
1353 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
1354 from hex to base64.
1355 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
1356 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
1357 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
1358 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
1359 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
1360 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
1361 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
1362 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
1363 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
1364 option (default off).
1365 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
1366 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
1367 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
1368 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
1369 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
1370 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
1371 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
1372 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
1373 authentication.
1374 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
1375 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
1376 decryption.
1377 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
1378 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
1379 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
1380 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
1381 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
1382 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
1383 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
1384 all.
1385 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
1386 against MaxAuthTries.
1387 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
1388 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
1389 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
1390 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
1391 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
1392 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
1393 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
1394 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
1395 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
1396 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against
1397 servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol (closes: #241119).
1398 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were
1399 being lost as comment fields (closes: #787776).
1400 - ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse
1401 phase to be applied (they were being ignored; closes: #774369).
1402 - ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the
1403 second pass through the config files always run when host name
1404 canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes)
1405 - ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection
1406 multiplexing is in use.
1407 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH
1408 formats.
1409 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use.
1410 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
1411 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
1412 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
1413 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
1414 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
1415 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
1416 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
1417 by Jann Horn.
1418 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
1419 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
1420 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
1421 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
1422 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
1423 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
1424 (closes: #740494).
1425 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
1426 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
1427 file.
1428 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
1429 devices.
1430 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
1431 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
1432 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
1433 enabling debug mode.
1434 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
1435 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
1436 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
1437 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
1438 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
1439 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).
1440 - ssh(1): Fix out-of-bound read in EscapeChar configuration option
1441 parsing.
1442 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
1443 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
1444 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
1445 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from
1446 the list of active forwards.
1447 - sshd(8): Make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options
1448 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
1449 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
1450 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
1451 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
1452 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
1453 options to appear in any order.
1454 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
1455 and ForceCommand.
1456 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
1457 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
1458 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
1459 forwarding requested.
1460 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
1461 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
1462 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
1463 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
1464 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
1465 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
1466 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
1467 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
1468 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
1469 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
1470 host key fingerprints.
1471 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
1472 language consistent.
1473 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
1474 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
1475 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
1476 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
1477 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
1478 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
1479 to fix security issues:
1480 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
1481 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
1482 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
1483 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
1484 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
1485 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
1486 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
1487 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
1488 Moritz Jodeit.
1489 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
1490 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
1491 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
1492 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
1493 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
1494 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
1495 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
1496 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
1497 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
1498 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
1499 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
1500 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
1501 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
1502 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
1503 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
1504 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

1561
1562 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
1563 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
1564 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
1565 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
1566 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
1567 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
1568 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
1569 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
1570 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
1571 key types.
1572 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
1573 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
1574 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
1575 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
1576 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
1577 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
1578 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
1579 option.
1580 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
1581 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
1582 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
1583 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
1584 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
1585 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
1586 authentication success / failure messages.
1587 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
1588 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
1589 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
1590 #734553).
1591 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
1592 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
1593 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
1594 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
1595 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
1596 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
1597 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
1598 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
1599 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
1600 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
1601 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
1602 field.
1603 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
1604 simply a new enough dpkg.
1605 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
1606 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
1607 field.
1608 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
1609 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

1764 * Bump guard version for sysvinit->systemd transition to 1:6.5p1-3; we may
1765 have got it wrong before, and it's fairly harmless to repeat it.
1766 * Remove tests for whether /dev/null is a character device from the

1794 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.5,
1795 LP: #1275068):
1796 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
1797 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
1798 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
1799 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking
1800 host certificate names (closes: #115286).
1801 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
1802 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
1803 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
1804 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
1805 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
1806 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
1807 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See
1808 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full

1814 * Incorporate default path changes from shadow 1:4.0.18.1-8, removing
1815 /usr/bin/X11 (closes: #644521).
1816 * Generate ED25519 host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish
1817 to add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey

1846 + ssh(1): do not fatally exit when attempting to cleanup multiplexing-
1847 created channels that are incompletely opened (closes: #651357).

1902
1903 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
1904 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
1905 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
1906 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
1907 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
1908 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
1909 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
1910 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
1911 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
1912 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
1913 the packaging.
1914 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
1915 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
1916 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
1917 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
1918 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
1919 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
1920 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
1921 openssh-server.postinst.
1922 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
1923 via dh_installdeb.
1924 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
1925 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
1926 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
1927 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
1928 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
1929 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
1930 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
1931 chroot.
1932 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
1933 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
1934 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
1935 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.
1936 * This removes the last of our uses of debconf (closes: #221531).

2112 - Introduce sandboxing of the pre-auth privsep child using an optional

2114 mandatory restrictions on the syscalls the privsep child can perform.
2115 - Add new SHA256-based HMAC transport integrity modes from

2117 - The pre-authentication sshd(8) privilege separation slave process now
2118 logs via a socket shared with the master process, avoiding the need to
2119 maintain /dev/log inside the chroot (closes: #75043, #429243,
2120 #599240).
2121 - ssh(1) now warns when a server refuses X11 forwarding (closes:
2122 #504757).
2123 - sshd_config(5)'s AuthorizedKeysFile now accepts multiple paths,
2124 separated by whitespace (closes: #76312). The authorized_keys2
2125 fallback is deprecated but documented (closes: #560156).
2126 - ssh(1) and sshd(8): set IPv6 traffic class from IPQoS, as well as IPv4
2127 ToS/DSCP (closes: #498297).
2128 - ssh-add(1) now accepts keys piped from standard input. E.g. "ssh-add
2129 - < /path/to/key" (closes: #229124).
2130 - Clean up lost-passphrase text in ssh-keygen(1) (closes: #444691).
2131 - Say "required" rather than "recommended" in unprotected-private-key
2132 warning (LP: #663455).

2209 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.7):
2210 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
2211 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
2212 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
2213 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
2214 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
2215 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
2216 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
2217 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
2218 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
2219 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
2220 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
2221 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
2222 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
2223 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
2224 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
2225 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
2226 (closes: #594687).
2227 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
2228 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
2229 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
2230 it to be stripped off).
2231 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2232 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
2233 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
2234 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
2235 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
2236 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
2237 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
2238 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
2239 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
2240 * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this
2241 SELinux build fix.

2358
2359 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
2360 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
2361 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
2362 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
2363 or on the command-line.
2364 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
2365 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
2366 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
2367 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
2368 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
2369 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
2370 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
2371 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
2372 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
2373 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
2374 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
2375 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
2376 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
2377 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
2378 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
2379 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
2380 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
2381 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
2382 (closes: #270399, #428082).
2383 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
2384 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
2385 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
2386 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
2387
2388 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
2389 patches apply with offsets.
2390 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
2391 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
2392 around with uudecode.
2393 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
2394 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
2395 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
2396 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
2397 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
2398 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
2399 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
2400 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
2401 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
2402 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
2403 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
2404 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
2405 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
2406 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
2407 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
2408 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
2409 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
2410 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
2411 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
2412 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
2413 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
2414 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
2415 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
2416 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
2417 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
2418 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
2419 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
2420 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
2421 * Policy version 3.8.4:
2422 - Add a Homepage field.

2456 * Backport from upstream:
2457 - Do not fall back to adding keys without constraints (ssh-add -c / -t
2458 ...) when the agent refuses the constrained add request. This was a
2459 useful migration measure back in 2002 when constraints were new, but
2460 just adds risk now (LP: #209447).
2461 * Drop change from 1:3.8p1-3 to avoid setresuid() and setresgid() system
2462 calls. This only applied to Linux 2.2, which it's no longer feasible to
2463 run anyway (see 1:5.2p1-2 changelog).

2470 * Backport from upstream:
2471 - After sshd receives a SIGHUP, ignore subsequent HUPs while sshd
2472 re-execs itself. Prevents two HUPs in quick succession from resulting
2473 in sshd dying (LP: #497781).
2474 - Output a debug if we can't open an existing keyfile (LP: #505301).
2475 * Use host compiler for ssh-askpass-gnome when cross-compiling.
2476 * Don't run tests when cross-compiling.
2477 * Drop change from 1:3.6.1p2-5 to disable cmsg_type check for file
2478 descriptor passing when running on Linux 2.0. The previous stable
2479 release of Debian dropped support for Linux 2.4, let alone 2.0, so this
2480 very likely has no remaining users depending on it.

2491 * New upstream release (closes: #536182). Yes, I know 5.3p1 has been out
2492 for a while, but there's no GSSAPI patch available for it yet.
2493 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
2494 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
2495 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
2496 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
2497 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
2498 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
2499 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
2500 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
2501 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
2502 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
2503 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
2504 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the
2505 internal-sftp server (closes: #524423, LP: #362511).
2506 - Add AllowAgentForwarding to available Match keywords list (closes:
2507 #540623).
2508 - Make ssh(1) send the correct channel number for
2509 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
2510 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
2511 openssh-5.1.
2512 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
2513 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
2514 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).
2515 - Disable nonfunctional ssh(1) ~C escape handler in multiplex slave
2516 connections (closes: #507541).
2517 - Fix "whitepsace" typo in ssh_config(5) (closes: #514313, LP: #303835).
2518 * Update to GSSAPI patch from
2519 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.2p1-gsskex-all-20090726.patch,
2520 including cascading credentials support (LP: #416958).
2521 * Use x11.pc when compiling/linking gnome-ssh-askpass2 (closes: #555951).
2522 * Moved to bzr.debian.org; add Vcs-Bzr and Vcs-Browser control fields.

2532 * Update OpenSSH FAQ to revision 1.110.
2533 * Remove ssh/new_config, only needed for direct upgrades from potato which
2534 are no longer particularly feasible anyway (closes: #420682).
2535 * Cope with insserv reordering of init script links.
2536 * Remove init script stop link in rc1, as killprocs handles it already.
2537 * Adjust short descriptions to avoid relying on previous experience with
2538 rsh, based on suggestions from Reuben Thomas (closes: #512198).
2539 * Remove manual page references to login.conf, which aren't applicable on
2540 non-BSD systems (closes: #154434).
2541 * Remove/adjust manual page references to BSD-specific /etc/rc (closes:

2545 configuration file (closes: #415008, although unfortunately this will
2546 only be conveniently visible on new installations).
2547 * Include URL to OpenBSD's ssl(8) in ssh(1), since I don't see a better

2601 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there
2602 corresponds to sshd before running '/etc/init.d/ssh reload' from if-up
2603 script; SIGHUP is racy if called at boot before sshd has a chance to
2604 install its signal handler, but fortunately the pid file is written
2605 after that which lets us avoid the race (closes: #502444).
2606 * While the above is a valuable sanity-check, it turns out that it doesn't

2648
2649 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
2650 backported to 4.7p1:
2651 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
2652 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
2653 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
2654 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
2655 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
2656 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
2657 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
2658 inside the chroot environment.
2659 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
2660 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
2661 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
2662 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
2663 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
2664 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
2665 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
2666 also allow Protocol 1.
2667 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
2668 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
2669 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
2670 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
2671 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
2672 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
2673 embedded backslash escape sequences.
2674 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
2675 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
2676 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
2677 /bin/sh.
2678 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
2679 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
2680 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
2681 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
2682 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
2683 connections via a ProxyCommand.
2684 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
2685 #140828).
2686 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
2687 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
2688 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
2689 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
2690 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
2691 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
2692 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
2693 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
2694 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
2695 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
2696 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
2697 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
2698 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
2699 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
2700 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
2701 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
2702 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
2703 (LP: #119295).
2704 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
2705 chroot (LP: #237557).
2706 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
2707 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
2708 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
2709 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
2710 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
2711 rejection of changed host keys.
2712 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
2713 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
2714 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
2715 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
2716 matching.
2717 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
2718 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
2719 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
2720 source address and hostname) to test the application of
2721 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
2722 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
2723 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
2724 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
2725 connections only).
2726 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
2727 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
2728 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
2729 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
2730 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
2731 the server).
2732 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
2733 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
2734 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
2735 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
2736 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
2737 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
2738 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
2739 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
2740 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
2741 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
2742 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
2743 hijacked.
2744 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
2745 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
2746 fingerprint.
2747 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
2748 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
2749 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
2750 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
2751 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
2752 forwarder.
2753 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
2754 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
2755 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
2756 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
2757 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
2758 address and give up if that failed.
2759 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
2760 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
2761 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
2762 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
2763 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
2764 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
2765 from 768 to 1024 bits.
2766 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
2767 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
2768 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
2769 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
2770 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
2771 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
2772 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
2773 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
2774 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
2775 blocks.
2776 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
2777 that are available to a primary connection.
2778 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
2779 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
2780 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
2781 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
2782 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
2783 server runs out of file descriptors).
2784 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
2785 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
2786 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
2787 platforms.
2788 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
2789 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
2790 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
2791 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
2792 targets).

3031 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
3032 (closes: #444738).
3033 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
3034 installations are unchanged.
3035 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
3036 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
3037 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
3038 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
3039 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
3040 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
3041 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
3042 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
3043 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
3044 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
3045 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
3046 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
3047 without passing the full exit status.
3048 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
3049 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
3050 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
3051 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
3052 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
3053 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
3054 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
3055 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
3056 mechanisms.
3057 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
3058 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
3059 into the client.
3060 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
3061 have been established.
3062 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
3063 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
3064 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
3065 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
3066 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed
3067 (closes: #405041).
3068 - Manual page datestamps updated (closes: #433181).
3069 * Install the OpenSSH FAQ in /usr/share/doc/openssh-client.

3181 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
3182 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.4):
3183 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
3184 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
3185 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
3186 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
3187 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
3188 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
3189 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
3190 be added in future releases.
3191 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
3192 final hash of SHA256.
3193 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
3194 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
3195 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
3196 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
3197 option.
3198 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
3199 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
3200 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
3201 establish.
3202 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
3203 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
3204 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
3205 (closes: #50612).
3206 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
3207 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
3208 established.
3209 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
3210 specification of command-line arguments.
3211 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
3212 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
3213 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
3214 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
3215 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
3216 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
3217 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
3218 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
3219 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
3220 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
3221 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
3222 liberal (closes: #103677).
3223 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
3224 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
3225 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
3226 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
3227 in sshd_config.
3228 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
3229 progress meter (closes: #257524).
3230 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
3231 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
3232 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
3233 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
3234 install ChangeLog.gssapi.

3236 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
3237 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).

3239 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
3240 closes: #122188).
3241 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
3242 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
3243 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
3244 * Merge from Ubuntu:
3245 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
3246 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
3247 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
3248 the default path.
3249 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
3250 openssh-client dependency.

3330 can tell, the only way to do this reliably is to write out the desired
3331 new text of the conffile in the preinst. This is gross, and requires

3450 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
3451 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
3452 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
3453 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
3454 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
3455 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
3456 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
3457 scp (closes: #349645).
3458 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
3459 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
3460 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
3461 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
3462 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
3463 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3464 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
3465 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
3466 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
3467 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
3468 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
3469 background at the time of session exit.
3470 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
3471 without arguments (closes: #114894).
3472 - Fix timing variance for valid vs. invalid accounts when attempting
3473 Kerberos authentication.
3474 - Ensure that ssh always returns code 255 on internal error
3475 (closes: #259865).
3476 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
3477 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
3478 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
3479 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:
3480 https://launchpad.net/bugs/25528).
3481 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
3482 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
3483 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
3484 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
3485 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
3486 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
3487 - Many manual page improvements.
3488 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
3489 possible crashes.

3492 (closes: #352042).
3493 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
3494 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
3495 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
3496 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
3497 (closes: #349896).

3582 - Add GSSAPI key exchange support from
3583 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh.html (thanks, Stephen
3584 Frost).
3585 - Build-depend on libkrb5-dev and configure --with-kerberos5=/usr.
3586 - openssh-client and openssh-server replace ssh-krb5.
3587 - Update commented-out Kerberos/GSSAPI options in default sshd_config.
3588 - Fix HAVE_GSSAPI_KRB5_H/HAVE_GSSAPI_GSSAPI_KRB5_H typos in
3589 gss-serv-krb5.c.

3595 * New upstream release.
3596 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2797): Fix a bug introduced in OpenSSH 4.0 that
3597 caused GatewayPorts to be incorrectly activated for dynamic ("-D")
3598 port forwardings when no listen address was explicitly specified
3599 (closes: #326065).
3600 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2798): Fix improper delegation of GSSAPI
3601 credentials. This code is only built in openssh-krb5, not openssh, but
3602 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
3603 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
3604 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
3605 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
3606 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable
3607 compression on the client or set "Compression yes" (losing this
3608 security benefit) on the server.
3609 - Increase the default size of new RSA/DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3610 from 1024 to 2048 bits (closes: #181162).
3611 - Many bugfixes and improvements to connection multiplexing.
3612 - Don't pretend to accept $HOME (closes: #208648).
3613 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
3614 * openssh-client and openssh-server conflict with pre-split ssh to avoid
3615 problems when ssh is left un-upgraded (closes: #324695).
3616 * Set X11Forwarding to yes in the default sshd_config (new installs only).
3617 At least when X11UseLocalhost is turned on, which is the default, the
3618 security risks of using X11 forwarding are risks to the client, not to
3619 the server (closes: #320104).

3665 * SELinux support (thanks, Manoj Srivastava; closes: #308555):
3666 - Added SELinux capability, and turned it on be default. Added
3667 restorecon calls in preinst and postinst (should not matter if the
3668 machine is not SELinux aware). By and large, the changes made should
3669 have no effect unless the rules file calls --with-selinux; and even
3670 then there should be no performance hit for machines not actively
3671 running SELinux.
3672 - Modified the preinst and postinst to call restorecon to set the
3673 security context for the generated public key files.
3674 - Added a comment to /etc/pam.d/ssh to indicate that an SELinux system
3675 may want to also include pam_selinux.so.
3676 * Re-enable ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, now that its build-dependencies
3677 are available.
3678 * Restore /usr/lib/sftp-server temporarily, as a symlink to
3679 /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server (closes: #312891).

3695 and has not been the default since openssh 1:3.0.1p1-1. Users who need
3696 this should edit sshd_config instead (closes: #147212).
3697 * Since ssh-keysign isn't used by default (you need to set
3698 EnableSSHKeysign to "yes" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config), having a debconf
3699 question to ask whether it should be setuid is overkill, and the
3700 question text had got out of date anyway. Remove this question, ship
3701 ssh-keysign setuid in openssh-client.deb, and set a statoverride if the
3702 debconf question was previously set to false.
3703 * Add lintian overrides for the above (setuid-binary,

3714 - Normalise socket addresses returned by get_remote_hostname(), fixing

3716 * Take upstream's hint and disable the unsupported USE_POSIX_THREADS
3717 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
3718 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may
3719 provide two sets of binaries built with and without this option, since
3720 it seems I can't win.
3721 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
3722 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
3723 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).
3724 * openssh-server Suggests: rssh (closes: #233012).
3725 * Change libexecdir to /usr/lib/openssh, and fix up various alternatives
3726 and configuration files to match (closes: #87900, #151321).

3734 * New upstream release.
3735 - Port-forwarding specifications now take optional bind addresses, and
3736 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
3737 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
3738 (closes: #87253, #192206).
3739 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
3740 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
3741 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
3742 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
3743 (closes: #287013).
3744 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
3745 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
3746 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
3747 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
3748 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
3749 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
3750 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
3751 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
3752 closes: #296487).
3753 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
3754 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
3755 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
3756 - Link with -lcrypt.
3757 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
3758 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
3759 satisfy build-dependencies.
3760 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
3761 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
3762 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
3763 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
3764 (closes: #307069).

3876 for this. openssh-client is priority standard, openssh-server optional.
3877 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
3878 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends

3880 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
3881 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
3882 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
3883 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
3884 and ssh/user_environment_tell.
3885 * Add a heuristic to try to make sure the sshd_config upgrade to >= 3.7
3886 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
3887 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
3888 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing

4059 * New upstream release (closes: #232281):
4060 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
4061 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
4062 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
4063 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
4064 syslog (closes: #171673).
4065 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
4066 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
4067 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
4068 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
4069 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
4070 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
4071 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
4072 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
4073 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
4074 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
4075 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
4076 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
4077 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
4078 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
4079 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
4080 ssh_config(5) for details.
4081 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
4082 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
4083 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
4084 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
4085 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.

4087 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
4088 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.

4262 and generally update the "/usr/bin/ssh not SUID" entry.
4263 * More README.Debian work:
4264 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
4265 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
4266 should probably be sorted by version somehow.

4342 * Happy new year!
4343 * Use getent rather than id to find out whether the sshd user exists
4344 (closes: #150974).
4345 * Remove some duplication from the postinst's ssh-keysign setuid code.
4346 * Replace db_text with db_input throughout debian/config. (db_text has
4347 been a compatibility wrapper since debconf 0.1.5.)
4348 * Warn about PermitUserEnvironment on upgrade (closes: #167895).
4349 * Use 'make install-nokeys', and disable unused debhelper commands,
4350 thereby forward-porting the last pieces of Zack Weinberg's patch
4351 (closes: #68341).
4352 * Move the man page for gnome-ssh-askpass from the ssh package to
4353 ssh-askpass-gnome (closes: #174449).
4354 * Build with -DLOGIN_NO_ENDOPT, since Debian's /bin/login doesn't accept
4355 '--' to terminate the list of options (closes: #171554).
4356 * Add Jonathan Amery's ssh-argv0 script (closes: #111341).
4357 * Update Danish debconf template (thanks, Morten Brix Pedersen;
4358 closes: #174757).
4359 * Document setgid ssh-agent's effect on certain environment variables in
4360 README.Debian (closes: #167974).
4361 * Document interoperability problems between scp and ssh.com's server in
4362 README.Debian, and suggest some workarounds (closes: #174662).

4375
4376 * New upstream release.
4377 - Fixes typo in ssh-add usage (closes: #152239).
4378 - Fixes 'PermitRootLogin forced-commands-only' (closes: #166184).
4379 - ~/.ssh/environment and environment= options in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
4380 are deprecated for security reasons and will eventually go away. For
4381 now they can be re-enabled by setting 'PermitUserEnvironment yes' in
4382 sshd_config.
4383 - ssh-agent is installed setgid to prevent ptrace() attacks. The group
4384 actually doesn't matter, as it drops privileges immediately, but to
4385 avoid confusion the postinst creates a new 'ssh' group for it.
4386 * Obsolete patches:
4387 - Solar Designer's privsep+compression patch for Linux 2.2 (see
4388 1:3.3p1-0.0woody1).
4389 - Hostbased auth ssh-keysign backport (see 1:3.4p1-4).
4390
4391 * Remove duplicated phrase in ssh_config(5) (closes: #152404).
4392 * Source the debconf confmodule at the top of the postrm rather than at
4393 the bottom, to avoid making future non-idempotency problems worse (see
4394 #151035).
4395 * Debconf templates:
4396 - Add Polish (thanks, Grzegorz Kusnierz).
4397 - Update French (thanks, Denis Barbier; closes: #132509).
4398 - Update Spanish (thanks, Carlos Valdivia Yagüe; closes: #164716).
4399 * Write a man page for gnome-ssh-askpass, and link it to ssh-askpass.1 if
4400 this is the selected ssh-askpass alternative (closes: #67775).

4408 #148951 and http://www.average.org/freecrypto/).
4409 * Drop ssh-askpass-gnome's priority to optional, per the override file.
4410 * Drop the PAM special case for hurd-i386 (closes: #99157).
4411 * s/dile/idle/ in ssh_config(5) (closes: #118331).
4412 * Note in README.Debian that you need xauth from xbase-clients on the
4413 server for X11 forwarding (closes: #140269).
4414 * Use correct path to upstream README in copyright file (closes: #146037).
4415 * Document the units for ProtocolKeepAlives (closes: #159479).

4428 * Fix some debconf template typos (closes: #160358).

5173 * Integrated man page addition for PrintLastLog.
5174 This bug was filed on "openssh", and I ended up
5175 creating my own patch for this (closes: #59054)
5176 * Improved error message when ssh_exchange_identification
5177 gets EOF (closes: #58904)
5178 * Fixed typo (your -> you're) in debian/preinst.
5179 * Added else-clauses to config to make this upgradepath possible:
5180 oldssh -> openssh preinst fails due to upgrade_to_openssh=false
5181 -> ssh-nonfree -> openssh. Without these, debconf remembered
5182 the old answer, config didn't force asking it, and preinst always
5183 aborted (closes: #56596, #57782)
5184 * Moved setting upgrade_to_openssh isdefault flag to the place
5185 where preinst would abort. This means no double question to most
5186 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
5187 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
5188 use_old_init_script, as the situation is a bit different, and
5189 less common (closes: #54010, #56224)
5190 * Check for existance of ssh-keygen before attempting to use it in
5191 preinst, added warning for non-existant ssh-keygen in config. This
5192 happens when the old ssh is removed (say, due to ssh-nonfree getting
5193 installed).
