20 * Apply various warning-suppression and regression-test fixes to
21 gssapi.patch from Damien Miller.
22 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.6,
23 LP: #1298280):
24 - CVE-2014-2532: sshd(8): when using environment passing with an
25 sshd_config(5) AcceptEnv pattern with a wildcard, OpenSSH prior to 6.6
26 could be tricked into accepting any environment variable that contains
27 the characters before the wildcard character.
28 * Re-enable btmp logging, as its permissions were fixed a long time ago in
29 response to #370050 (closes: #341883).
30 * Change to "PermitRootLogin without-password" for new installations, and
31 ask a debconf question when upgrading systems with "PermitRootLogin yes"
32 from previous versions (closes: #298138).
33 * Debconf translations:

80 recommend 'update-rc.d ssh disable', rather than manual removal of rc*.d
81 symlinks that won't work with dependency-based sysv-rc.
82 * Remove code related to non-dependency-based sysv-rc ordering, since that
83 is no longer supported.

85 fix getsockname errors when using "ssh -W" (closes: #738693).

90
91 * Clarify socket activation mode in README.Debian, as suggested by Uoti
92 Urpala.
93 * Stop claiming that "Protocol 2" is a Debian-specific default; this has
94 been upstream's default since 5.4p1.
95 * Avoid stdout noise from which(1) on purge of openssh-client.
96 * Fix sysvinit->systemd transition code to cope with still-running
97 sysvinit jobs being considered active by systemd (thanks, Uoti Urpala
98 and Michael Biebl).
99 * Bump guard version for sysvinit->systemd transition to 1:6.5p1-3; we may
100 have got it wrong before, and it's fairly harmless to repeat it.
101 * Remove tests for whether /dev/null is a character device from the
102 Upstart job and the systemd service files; it's there to avoid a
103 confusing failure mode in daemon(), but with modern init systems we use
104 the -D option to suppress daemonisation anyway.
105 * Refer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 in debian/copyright (for the
106 Debian patch) rather than plain GPL.
107 * Drop some very old Conflicts and Replaces (ssh (<< 1:3.8.1p1-9),
108 rsh-client (<< 0.16.1-1), ssh-krb5 (<< 1:4.3p2-7), ssh-nonfree (<< 2),
109 and openssh-client (<< 1:3.8.1p1-11)). These all relate to pre-etch
110 versions, for which we no longer have maintainer script code, and per
111 policy they would have to become Breaks nowadays anyway.
112 * Policy version 3.9.5.
113 * Drop unnecessary -1 in zlib1g Build-Depends version.
114 * Tweak dh_systemd_enable invocations to avoid lots of error noise.

123 (closes: #738619).

128
129 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.5,
130 LP: #1275068):
131 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
132 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
133 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
134 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking
135 host certificate names (closes: #115286).
136 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
137 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
138 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
139 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
140 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
141 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
142 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See
143 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full
144 reasoning.
145 * Add OpenPGP signature checking configuration to watch file (thanks,
146 Daniel Kahn Gillmor; closes: #732441).
147 * Add the pam_keyinit session module, to create a new session keyring on
148 login (closes: #734816).
149 * Incorporate default path changes from shadow 1:4.0.18.1-8, removing
150 /usr/bin/X11 (closes: #644521).
151 * Generate ED25519 host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish
152 to add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
153 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run
154 'ssh-keygen -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key -N "" -t ed25519'.
155 * Drop long-obsolete "SSH now uses protocol 2 by default" section from
156 README.Debian.
157 * Add systemd support (thanks, Sven Joachim; closes: #676830).

171 * New upstream release. Important changes:
172 - 6.3/6.3p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.3):
173 + sftp(1): add support for resuming partial downloads using the
174 "reget" command and on the sftp commandline or on the "get"
175 commandline using the "-a" (append) option (closes: #158590).
176 + ssh(1): add an "IgnoreUnknown" configuration option to selectively
177 suppress errors arising from unknown configuration directives
178 (closes: #436052).
179 + sftp(1): update progressmeter when data is acknowledged, not when
180 it's sent (partially addresses #708372).
181 + ssh(1): do not fatally exit when attempting to cleanup multiplexing-
182 created channels that are incompletely opened (closes: #651357).
183 - 6.4/6.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.4):
184 + CVE-2013-4548: sshd(8): fix a memory corruption problem triggered
185 during rekeying when an AES-GCM cipher is selected (closes:
186 #729029). Full details of the vulnerability are available at:
187 http://www.openssh.com/txt/gcmrekey.adv
188 * When running under Upstart, only consider the daemon started once it is
189 ready to accept connections (by raising SIGSTOP at that point and using
190 "expect stop").

227
228 * If the running init daemon is Upstart, then, on the first upgrade to
229 this version, check whether sysvinit is still managing sshd; if so,
230 manually stop it so that it can be restarted under upstart. We do this
231 near the end of the postinst, so it shouldn't result in any appreciable
232 extra window where sshd is not running during upgrade.

235
236openssh (1:6.2p2-2) unstable; urgency=low
237
238 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
239 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
240 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
241 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
242 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
243 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
244 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
245 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
246 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
247 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
248 the packaging.
249 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
250 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
251 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
252 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
253 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
254 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
255 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
256 openssh-server.postinst.
257 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
258 via dh_installdeb.
259 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
260 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
261 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
262 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
263 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
264 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
265 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
266 chroot.
267 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
268 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
269 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
270 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.
271 * This removes the last of our uses of debconf (closes: #221531).
272 * Use the pam_loginuid session module (thanks, Laurent Bigonville; closes:
273 #677440, LP: #1067779).
274 * Bracket our session stack with calls to pam_selinux close/open (thanks,
275 Laurent Bigonville; closes: #679458).
276 * Fix dh_builddeb invocation so that we really use xz compression for
277 binary packages, as intended since 1:6.1p1-2.

446 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.org/txt/release-5.9).
447 - Introduce sandboxing of the pre-auth privsep child using an optional
448 sshd_config(5) "UsePrivilegeSeparation=sandbox" mode that enables
449 mandatory restrictions on the syscalls the privsep child can perform.
450 - Add new SHA256-based HMAC transport integrity modes from
451 http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-dbider-sha2-mac-for-ssh-02.txt.
452 - The pre-authentication sshd(8) privilege separation slave process now
453 logs via a socket shared with the master process, avoiding the need to
454 maintain /dev/log inside the chroot (closes: #75043, #429243,
455 #599240).
456 - ssh(1) now warns when a server refuses X11 forwarding (closes:
457 #504757).
458 - sshd_config(5)'s AuthorizedKeysFile now accepts multiple paths,
459 separated by whitespace (closes: #76312). The authorized_keys2
460 fallback is deprecated but documented (closes: #560156).
461 - ssh(1) and sshd(8): set IPv6 traffic class from IPQoS, as well as IPv4
462 ToS/DSCP (closes: #498297).
463 - ssh-add(1) now accepts keys piped from standard input. E.g. "ssh-add
464 - < /path/to/key" (closes: #229124).
465 - Clean up lost-passphrase text in ssh-keygen(1) (closes: #444691).
466 - Say "required" rather than "recommended" in unprotected-private-key
467 warning (LP: #663455).

544 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.org/txt/release-5.7):
545 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
546 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
547 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
548 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
549 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
550 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
551 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
552 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
553 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
554 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
555 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
556 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
557 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
558 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
559 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
560 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
561 (closes: #594687).
562 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
563 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
564 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
565 it to be stripped off).
566 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
567 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
568 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
569 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
570 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
571 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
572 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
573 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
574 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.
575 * Rearrange selinux-role.patch so that it links properly given this
576 SELinux build fix.

693
694 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
695 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
696 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
697 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
698 or on the command-line.
699 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
700 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
701 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
702 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
703 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
704 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
705 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
706 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
707 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
708 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
709 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
710 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
711 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
712 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
713 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
714 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
715 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
716 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
717 (closes: #270399, #428082).
718 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
719 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
720 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
721 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
722
723 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
724 patches apply with offsets.
725 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
726 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
727 around with uudecode.
728 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
729 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
730 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
731 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
732 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
733 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
734 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
735 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
736 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
737 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
738 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
739 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
740 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
741 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
742 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
743 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
744 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
745 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
746 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
747 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
748 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
749 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
750 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
751 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
752 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
753 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
754 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
755 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
756 * Policy version 3.8.4:
757 - Add a Homepage field.

820 initial protocol handshake (closes: #562048).

825
826 * New upstream release (closes: #536182). Yes, I know 5.3p1 has been out
827 for a while, but there's no GSSAPI patch available for it yet.
828 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
829 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
830 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
831 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
832 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
833 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
834 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
835 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
836 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
837 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
838 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
839 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the
840 internal-sftp server (closes: #524423, LP: #362511).
841 - Add AllowAgentForwarding to available Match keywords list (closes:
842 #540623).
843 - Make ssh(1) send the correct channel number for
844 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
845 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
846 openssh-5.1.
847 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
848 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
849 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).
850 - Disable nonfunctional ssh(1) ~C escape handler in multiplex slave
851 connections (closes: #507541).
852 - Fix "whitepsace" typo in ssh_config(5) (closes: #514313, LP: #303835).
853 * Update to GSSAPI patch from
854 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.2p1-gsskex-all-20090726.patch,
855 including cascading credentials support (LP: #416958).
856 * Use x11.pc when compiling/linking gnome-ssh-askpass2 (closes: #555951).
857 * Moved to bzr.debian.org; add Vcs-Bzr and Vcs-Browser control fields.
858 * Add debian/README.source with instructions on bzr handling.
859 * Make ChrootDirectory work with SELinux (thanks, Russell Coker; closes:
860 #556644).
861 * Initialise sc to NULL in ssh_selinux_getctxbyname (thanks, Václav Ovsík;
862 closes: #498684).
863 * Don't duplicate backslashes when displaying server banner (thanks,
864 Michał Górny; closes: #505378, LP: #425346).
865 * Use hardening-includes for hardening logic (thanks, Kees Cook; closes:
866 #561887).
867 * Update OpenSSH FAQ to revision 1.110.
868 * Remove ssh/new_config, only needed for direct upgrades from potato which
869 are no longer particularly feasible anyway (closes: #420682).
870 * Cope with insserv reordering of init script links.
871 * Remove init script stop link in rc1, as killprocs handles it already.
872 * Adjust short descriptions to avoid relying on previous experience with
873 rsh, based on suggestions from Reuben Thomas (closes: #512198).
874 * Remove manual page references to login.conf, which aren't applicable on
875 non-BSD systems (closes: #154434).
876 * Remove/adjust manual page references to BSD-specific /etc/rc (closes:
877 #513417).
878 * Refer to sshd_config(5) rather than sshd(8) in postinst-written
879 /etc/ssh/sshd_config, and add UsePAM commentary from upstream-shipped
880 configuration file (closes: #415008, although unfortunately this will
881 only be conveniently visible on new installations).
882 * Include URL to OpenBSD's ssl(8) in ssh(1), since I don't see a better
883 source for the same information among Debian's manual pages (closes:
884 #530692, LP: #456660).

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

983
984 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
985 backported to 4.7p1:
986 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
987 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
988 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
989 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
990 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
991 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
992 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
993 inside the chroot environment.
994 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
995 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
996 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
997 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
998 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
999 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
1000 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
1001 also allow Protocol 1.
1002 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
1003 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
1004 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
1005 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
1006 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
1007 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
1008 embedded backslash escape sequences.
1009 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
1010 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
1011 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
1012 /bin/sh.
1013 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
1014 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
1015 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
1016 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
1017 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
1018 connections via a ProxyCommand.
1019 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
1020 #140828).
1021 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
1022 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
1023 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
1024 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
1025 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
1026 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
1027 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
1028 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
1029 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
1030 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
1031 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
1032 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
1033 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
1034 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
1035 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
1036 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
1037 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
1038 (LP: #119295).
1039 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
1040 chroot (LP: #237557).
1041 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
1042 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
1043 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
1044 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
1045 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
1046 rejection of changed host keys.
1047 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
1048 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
1049 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
1050 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
1051 matching.
1052 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
1053 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
1054 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
1055 source address and hostname) to test the application of
1056 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
1057 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
1058 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
1059 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
1060 connections only).
1061 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
1062 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
1063 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
1064 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
1065 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
1066 the server).
1067 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
1068 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
1069 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
1070 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
1071 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
1072 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
1073 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
1074 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
1075 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
1076 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
1077 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
1078 hijacked.
1079 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
1080 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
1081 fingerprint.
1082 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
1083 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
1084 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
1085 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
1086 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
1087 forwarder.
1088 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
1089 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
1090 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
1091 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
1092 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
1093 address and give up if that failed.
1094 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
1095 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
1096 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
1097 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
1098 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
1099 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
1100 from 768 to 1024 bits.
1101 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
1102 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
1103 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
1104 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
1105 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
1106 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
1107 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
1108 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
1109 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
1110 blocks.
1111 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
1112 that are available to a primary connection.
1113 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
1114 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
1115 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
1116 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
1117 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
1118 server runs out of file descriptors).
1119 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
1120 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
1121 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
1122 platforms.
1123 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
1124 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
1125 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
1126 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
1127 targets).
1128 * Merge from Ubuntu:

1209 - Fix some buffer handling inconsistencies.
1210 - Use xasprintf to build user key file names, avoiding truncation
1211 problems.
1212 - Drop to the user's UID when reading user keys with -a.
1213 - Use EUID rather than UID when run with no file names and without -a.

1364 * New upstream release (closes: #453367).
1365 - CVE-2007-4752: Prevent ssh(1) from using a trusted X11 cookie if
1366 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
1367 (closes: #444738).
1368 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
1369 installations are unchanged.
1370 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
1371 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
1372 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
1373 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
1374 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
1375 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
1376 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
1377 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
1378 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
1379 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
1380 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
1381 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
1382 without passing the full exit status.
1383 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
1384 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
1385 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
1386 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
1387 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
1388 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
1389 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
1390 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
1391 mechanisms.
1392 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
1393 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
1394 into the client.
1395 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
1396 have been established.
1397 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
1398 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
1399 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
1400 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
1401 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed
1402 (closes: #405041).
1403 - Manual page datestamps updated (closes: #433181).
1404 * Install the OpenSSH FAQ in /usr/share/doc/openssh-client.

1514
1515 * New upstream release (closes: #395507, #397961, #420035). Important
1516 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
1517 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.org/txt/release-4.4):
1518 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
1519 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
1520 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
1521 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
1522 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
1523 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
1524 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
1525 be added in future releases.
1526 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
1527 final hash of SHA256.
1528 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
1529 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
1530 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
1531 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
1532 option.
1533 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
1534 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
1535 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
1536 establish.
1537 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
1538 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
1539 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
1540 (closes: #50612).
1541 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
1542 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
1543 established.
1544 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
1545 specification of command-line arguments.
1546 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
1547 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
1548 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
1549 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
1550 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
1551 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
1552 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
1553 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
1554 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
1555 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
1556 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
1557 liberal (closes: #103677).
1558 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
1559 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.org/txt/release-4.6):
1560 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
1561 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
1562 in sshd_config.
1563 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
1564 progress meter (closes: #257524).
1565 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
1566 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
1567 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
1568 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
1569 install ChangeLog.gssapi.
1570 * Build the .deb --with-ssl-engine (closes: #408027, LP: #119295).
1571 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
1572 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).
1573 * Move init script start links to S16, move rc1 stop link to K84, and
1574 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
1575 closes: #122188).
1576 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
1577 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
1578 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
1579 * Merge from Ubuntu:
1580 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
1581 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
1582 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
1583 the default path.
1584 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
1585 openssh-client dependency.

1785 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
1786 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
1787 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
1788 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
1789 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
1790 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
1791 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
1792 scp (closes: #349645).
1793 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
1794 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
1795 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
1796 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
1797 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
1798 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
1799 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
1800 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
1801 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
1802 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
1803 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
1804 background at the time of session exit.
1805 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
1806 without arguments (closes: #114894).
1807 - Fix timing variance for valid vs. invalid accounts when attempting
1808 Kerberos authentication.
1809 - Ensure that ssh always returns code 255 on internal error
1810 (closes: #259865).
1811 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
1812 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
1813 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
1814 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:
1815 https://launchpad.net/bugs/25528).
1816 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
1817 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
1818 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
1819 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
1820 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
1821 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
1822 - Many manual page improvements.
1823 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
1824 possible crashes.
1825 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
1826 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.3p2-gsskex-20060223.patch
1827 (closes: #352042).
1828 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
1829 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
1830 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
1831 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
1832 (closes: #349896).
1833 * Rephrase ssh/new_config and ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen debconf

1938 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
1939 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
1940 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that

2000 * SELinux support (thanks, Manoj Srivastava; closes: #308555):
2001 - Added SELinux capability, and turned it on be default. Added
2002 restorecon calls in preinst and postinst (should not matter if the
2003 machine is not SELinux aware). By and large, the changes made should
2004 have no effect unless the rules file calls --with-selinux; and even
2005 then there should be no performance hit for machines not actively
2006 running SELinux.
2007 - Modified the preinst and postinst to call restorecon to set the
2008 security context for the generated public key files.
2009 - Added a comment to /etc/pam.d/ssh to indicate that an SELinux system
2010 may want to also include pam_selinux.so.
2011 * Re-enable ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, now that its build-dependencies
2012 are available.
2013 * Restore /usr/lib/sftp-server temporarily, as a symlink to
2014 /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server (closes: #312891).
2015 * Switch to debhelper compatibility level 3, since 2 is deprecated.

2030 and has not been the default since openssh 1:3.0.1p1-1. Users who need
2031 this should edit sshd_config instead (closes: #147212).
2032 * Since ssh-keysign isn't used by default (you need to set
2033 EnableSSHKeysign to "yes" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config), having a debconf
2034 question to ask whether it should be setuid is overkill, and the
2035 question text had got out of date anyway. Remove this question, ship
2036 ssh-keysign setuid in openssh-client.deb, and set a statoverride if the
2037 debconf question was previously set to false.
2038 * Add lintian overrides for the above (setuid-binary,
2039 no-debconf-templates).

2049 - Normalise socket addresses returned by get_remote_hostname(), fixing

2051 * Take upstream's hint and disable the unsupported USE_POSIX_THREADS
2052 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
2053 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may
2054 provide two sets of binaries built with and without this option, since
2055 it seems I can't win.
2056 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
2057 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
2058 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).
2059 * openssh-server Suggests: rssh (closes: #233012).
2060 * Change libexecdir to /usr/lib/openssh, and fix up various alternatives
2061 and configuration files to match (closes: #87900, #151321).

2070 - Port-forwarding specifications now take optional bind addresses, and
2071 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
2072 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
2073 (closes: #87253, #192206).
2074 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
2075 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
2076 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
2077 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
2078 (closes: #287013).
2079 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
2080 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
2081 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
2082 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
2083 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
2084 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
2085 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
2086 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
2087 closes: #296487).
2088 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
2089 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
2090 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
2091 - Link with -lcrypt.
2092 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
2093 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
2094 satisfy build-dependencies.
2095 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
2096 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
2097 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
2098 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
2099 (closes: #307069).
2100 * debconf template translations:
2101 - Update Czech (thanks, Miroslav Kure; closes: #298744).

2211 for this. openssh-client is priority standard, openssh-server optional.
2212 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
2213 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends
2214 on it.
2215 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
2216 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
2217 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
2218 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
2219 and ssh/user_environment_tell.
2220 * Add a heuristic to try to make sure the sshd_config upgrade to >= 3.7
2221 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
2222 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
2223 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing
2224 configurations, but the right approach is now to remove the

2394 * New upstream release (closes: #232281):
2395 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
2396 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
2397 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
2398 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
2399 syslog (closes: #171673).
2400 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
2401 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
2402 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
2403 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
2404 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
2405 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
2406 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
2407 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
2408 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
2409 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
2410 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
2411 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
2412 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
2413 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
2414 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
2415 ssh_config(5) for details.
2416 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
2417 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
2418 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
2419 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
2420 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.
2421 * Darren Tucker:
2422 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
2423 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.
2424 - Fix a non-security-critical segfault in PAM authentication.

2597 and generally update the "/usr/bin/ssh not SUID" entry.
2598 * More README.Debian work:
2599 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
2600 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
2601 should probably be sorted by version somehow.

2655 * Stop using pam_lastlog, as it doesn't currently work well as a session
2656 module when privilege separation is enabled; it can usually read

3519 * Moved setting upgrade_to_openssh isdefault flag to the place
3520 where preinst would abort. This means no double question to most
3521 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
3522 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
3523 use_old_init_script, as the situation is a bit different, and
3524 less common (closes: #54010, #56224)
3525 * Check for existance of ssh-keygen before attempting to use it in
3526 preinst, added warning for non-existant ssh-keygen in config. This
3527 happens when the old ssh is removed (say, due to ssh-nonfree getting
3528 installed).
