1openssh (1:8.2p1-1) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium
2
3 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-8.2, closes:
4 #951582):
5 - ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-keygen(1): this release removes the "ssh-rsa"
6 (RSA/SHA1) algorithm from those accepted for certificate signatures
7 (i.e. the client and server CASignatureAlgorithms option) and will use
8 the rsa-sha2-512 signature algorithm by default when the ssh-keygen(1)
9 CA signs new certificates.
10 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 from the default
11 key exchange proposal for both the client and server.
12 - ssh-keygen(1): The command-line options related to the generation and
13 screening of safe prime numbers used by the
14 diffie-hellman-group-exchange-* key exchange algorithms have changed.
15 Most options have been folded under the -O flag.
16 - sshd(8): The sshd listener process title visible to ps(1) has changed
17 to include information about the number of connections that are
18 currently attempting authentication and the limits configured by
19 MaxStartups.
20 - Add support for FIDO/U2F hardware authenticators.
21 - ssh-keygen(1): Add a "no-touch-required" option when generating
22 FIDO-hosted keys, that disables their default behaviour of requiring a
23 physical touch/tap on the token during authentication. Note: not all
24 tokens support disabling the touch requirement.
25 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PubkeyAuthOptions directive that collects
26 miscellaneous public key authentication-related options for sshd(8).
27 At present it supports only a single option "no-touch-required". This
28 causes sshd to skip its default check for FIDO/U2F keys that the
29 signature was authorised by a touch or press event on the token
30 hardware.
31 - ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-keygen(1): Add a "no-touch-required" option for
32 authorized_keys and a similar extension for certificates. This option
33 disables the default requirement that FIDO key signatures attest that
34 the user touched their key to authorize them, mirroring the similar
35 PubkeyAuthOptions sshd_config option.
36 - ssh-keygen(1): Add support for the writing the FIDO attestation
37 information that is returned when new keys are generated via the "-O
38 write-attestation=/path" option. FIDO attestation certificates may be
39 used to verify that a FIDO key is hosted in trusted hardware. OpenSSH
40 does not currently make use of this information, beyond optionally
41 writing it to disk.
42 - Add support for FIDO2 resident keys.
43 - sshd(8): Add an Include sshd_config keyword that allows including
44 additional configuration files via glob(3) patterns (closes: #631189).
45 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Make the LE (low effort) DSCP code point available via
46 the IPQoS directive.
47 - ssh(1): When AddKeysToAgent=yes is set and the key contains no
48 comment, add the key to the agent with the key's path as the comment.
49 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh-agent(1): Expose PKCS#11 key labels and X.509
50 subjects as key comments, rather than simply listing the PKCS#11
51 provider library path.
52 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow PEM export of DSA and ECDSA keys.
53 - sshd(8): When clients get denied by MaxStartups, send a notification
54 prior to the SSH2 protocol banner according to RFC4253 section 4.2
55 (closes: #275458).
56 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): When invoking the $SSH_ASKPASS prompt program,
57 pass a hint to the program to describe the type of desired prompt.
58 The possible values are "confirm" (indicating that a yes/no
59 confirmation dialog with no text entry should be shown), "none" (to
60 indicate an informational message only), or blank for the original
61 ssh-askpass behaviour of requesting a password/phrase.
62 - ssh(1): Allow forwarding a different agent socket to the path
63 specified by $SSH_AUTH_SOCK, by extending the existing ForwardAgent
64 option to accepting an explicit path or the name of an environment
65 variable in addition to yes/no.
66 - ssh-keygen(1): Add a new signature operations "find-principals" to
67 look up the principal associated with a signature from an
68 allowed-signers file.
69 - sshd(8): Expose the number of currently-authenticating connections
70 along with the MaxStartups limit in the process title visible to "ps".
71 - sshd(8): Make ClientAliveCountMax=0 have sensible semantics: it will
72 now disable connection killing entirely rather than the current
73 behaviour of instantly killing the connection after the first liveness
74 test regardless of success.
75 - sshd(8): Clarify order of AllowUsers / DenyUsers vs AllowGroups /
76 DenyGroups in the sshd(8) manual page.
77 - sshd(8): Better describe HashKnownHosts in the manual page.
78 - sshd(8): Clarify that that permitopen=/PermitOpen do no name or
79 address translation in the manual page.
80 - sshd(8): Allow the UpdateHostKeys feature to function when multiple
81 known_hosts files are in use. When updating host keys, ssh will now
82 search subsequent known_hosts files, but will add updated host keys to
83 the first specified file only.
84 - All: Replace all calls to signal(2) with a wrapper around
85 sigaction(2). This wrapper blocks all other signals during the
86 handler preventing races between handlers, and sets SA_RESTART which
87 should reduce the potential for short read/write operations.
88 - sftp(1): Fix a race condition in the SIGCHILD handler that could turn
89 in to a kill(-1).
90 - sshd(8): Fix a case where valid (but extremely large) SSH channel IDs
91 were being incorrectly rejected.
92 - ssh(1): When checking host key fingerprints as answers to new hostkey
93 prompts, ignore whitespace surrounding the fingerprint itself.
94 - All: Wait for file descriptors to be readable or writeable during
95 non-blocking connect, not just readable. Prevents a timeout when the
96 server doesn't immediately send a banner (e.g. multiplexers like
97 sslh).
98 - sshd_config(5): Document the sntrup4591761x25519-sha512@tinyssh.org
99 key exchange algorithm.
100 * Add more historical md5sums of /etc/ssh/sshd_config between 1:7.4p1-1
101 and 1:7.7p1-4 inclusive (closes: #951220).
102 * ssh(1): Explain that -Y is equivalent to -X in the default configuration
103 (closes: #951640).

145
146openssh (1:8.1p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
147
148 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-8.1):
149 - ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-agent(1): Add protection for private keys at rest
150 in RAM against speculation and memory side-channel attacks like
151 Spectre, Meltdown and Rambleed. This release encrypts private keys
152 when they are not in use with a symmetric key that is derived from a
153 relatively large "prekey" consisting of random data (currently 16KB).
154 - ssh(1): Allow %n to be expanded in ProxyCommand strings.
155 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow prepending a list of algorithms to the default
156 set by starting the list with the '^' character, e.g.
157 "HostKeyAlgorithms ^ssh-ed25519".
158 - ssh-keygen(1): Add an experimental lightweight signature and
159 verification ability. Signatures may be made using regular ssh keys
160 held on disk or stored in a ssh-agent and verified against an
161 authorized_keys-like list of allowed keys. Signatures embed a
162 namespace that prevents confusion and attacks between different usage
163 domains (e.g. files vs email).
164 - ssh-keygen(1): Print key comment when extracting public key from a
165 private key.
166 - ssh-keygen(1): Accept the verbose flag when searching for host keys in
167 known hosts (i.e. "ssh-keygen -vF host") to print the matching host's
168 random-art signature too.
169 - All: Support PKCS8 as an optional format for storage of private keys
170 to disk. The OpenSSH native key format remains the default, but PKCS8
171 is a superior format to PEM if interoperability with non-OpenSSH
172 software is required, as it may use a less insecure key derivation
173 function than PEM's.
174 - ssh(1): If a PKCS#11 token returns no keys then try to login and
175 refetch them.
176 - ssh(1): Produce a useful error message if the user's shell is set
177 incorrectly during "match exec" processing.
178 - sftp(1): Allow the maximum uint32 value for the argument passed to -b
179 which allows better error messages from later validation.
180 - ssh-keyscan(1): Include SHA2-variant RSA key algorithms in KEX
181 proposal; allows ssh-keyscan to harvest keys from servers that disable
182 old SHA1 ssh-rsa.
183 - sftp(1): Print explicit "not modified" message if a file was requested
184 for resumed download but was considered already complete.
185 - sftp(1): Fix a typo and make <esc><right> move right to the closest
186 end of a word just like <esc><left> moves left to the closest
187 beginning of a word.
188 - sshd(8): Cap the number of permitopen/permitlisten directives allowed
189 to appear on a single authorized_keys line.
190 - All: Fix a number of memory leaks (one-off or on exit paths).
191 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Check for convtime() refusing to accept times that
192 resolve to LONG_MAX.
193 - ssh(1): Slightly more instructive error message when the user
194 specifies multiple -J options on the command-line (closes: #929669).
195 - ssh-agent(1): Process agent requests for RSA certificate private keys
196 using correct signature algorithm when requested.
197 - sftp(1): Check for user@host when parsing sftp target. This allows
198 user@[1.2.3.4] to work without a path.
199 - sshd(8): Enlarge format buffer size for certificate serial number so
200 the log message can record any 64-bit integer without truncation.
201 - sshd(8): For PermitOpen violations add the remote host and port to be
202 able to more easily ascertain the source of the request. Add the same
203 logging for PermitListen violations which were not previously logged
204 at all.
205 - scp(1), sftp(1): Use the correct POSIX format style for left
206 justification for the transfer progress meter.
207 - sshd(8): When examining a configuration using sshd -T, assume any
208 attribute not provided by -C does not match, which allows it to work
209 when sshd_config contains a Match directive with or without -C.
210 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Downgrade PKCS#11 "provider returned no slots"
211 warning from log level error to debug. This is common when attempting
212 to enumerate keys on smartcard readers with no cards plugged in.
213 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Do not unconditionally log in to PKCS#11
214 tokens. Avoids spurious PIN prompts for keys not selected for
215 authentication in ssh(1) and when listing public keys available in a
216 token using ssh-keygen(1).
217 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix typo that prevented detection of Linux VRF.
218 - sshd(8): In the Linux seccomp-bpf sandbox, allow mprotect(2) with
219 PROT_(READ|WRITE|NONE) only. This syscall is used by some hardened
220 heap allocators.
221 - sshd(8): In the Linux seccomp-bpf sandbox, allow the s390-specific
222 ioctl for ECC hardware support.
223 * Re-enable hardening on hppa, since the corresponding GCC bug is
224 apparently fixed.

276openssh (1:8.0p1-1) experimental; urgency=medium
277
278 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-8.0, closes:
279 #927792):
280 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), ssh-add(1): Add support for ECDSA keys in
281 PKCS#11 tokens (LP: #1665695).
282 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add experimental quantum-computing resistant key
283 exchange method, based on a combination of Streamlined NTRU Prime
284 4591^761 and X25519.
285 - ssh-keygen(1): Increase the default RSA key size to 3072 bits,
286 following NIST Special Publication 800-57's guidance for a 128-bit
287 equivalent symmetric security level (LP: #1445625).
288 - ssh(1): Allow "PKCS11Provider=none" to override later instances of the
289 PKCS11Provider directive in ssh_config.
290 - sshd(8): Add a log message for situations where a connection is
291 dropped for attempting to run a command but a sshd_config
292 ForceCommand=internal-sftp restriction is in effect.
293 - ssh(1): When prompting whether to record a new host key, accept the
294 key fingerprint as a synonym for "yes". This allows the user to paste
295 a fingerprint obtained out of band at the prompt and have the client
296 do the comparison for you.
297 - ssh-keygen(1): When signing multiple certificates on a single
298 command-line invocation, allow automatically incrementing the
299 certificate serial number.
300 - scp(1), sftp(1): Accept -J option as an alias to ProxyJump on the scp
301 and sftp command-lines.
302 - ssh-agent(1), ssh-pkcs11-helper(8), ssh-add(1): Accept "-v"
303 command-line flags to increase the verbosity of output; pass verbose
304 flags though to subprocesses, such as ssh-pkcs11-helper started from
305 ssh-agent.
306 - ssh-add(1): Add a "-T" option to allowing testing whether keys in an
307 agent are usable by performing a signature and a verification.
308 - sftp-server(8): Add a "lsetstat@openssh.com" protocol extension that
309 replicates the functionality of the existing SSH2_FXP_SETSTAT
310 operation but does not follow symlinks.
311 - sftp(1): Add "-h" flag to chown/chgrp/chmod commands to request they
312 do not follow symlinks.
313 - sshd(8): Expose $SSH_CONNECTION in the PAM environment. This makes
314 the connection 4-tuple available to PAM modules that wish to use it in
315 decision-making.
316 - sshd(8): Add a ssh_config "Match final" predicate. Matches in same
317 pass as "Match canonical" but doesn't require hostname
318 canonicalisation be enabled.
319 - sftp(1): Support a prefix of '@' to suppress echo of sftp batch
320 commands.
321 - ssh-keygen(1): When printing certificate contents using "ssh-keygen
322 -Lf /path/certificate", include the algorithm that the CA used to sign
323 the cert.
324 - sshd(8): Fix authentication failures when sshd_config contains
325 "AuthenticationMethods any" inside a Match block that overrides a more
326 restrictive default.
327 - sshd(8): Avoid sending duplicate keepalives when ClientAliveCount is
328 enabled.
329 - sshd(8): Fix two race conditions related to SIGHUP daemon restart.
330 Remnant file descriptors in recently-forked child processes could
331 block the parent sshd's attempt to listen(2) to the configured
332 addresses. Also, the restarting parent sshd could exit before any
333 child processes that were awaiting their re-execution state had
334 completed reading it, leaving them in a fallback path.
335 - ssh(1): Fix stdout potentially being redirected to /dev/null when
336 ProxyCommand=- was in use.
337 - sshd(8): Avoid sending SIGPIPE to child processes if they attempt to
338 write to stderr after their parent processes have exited.
339 - ssh(1): Fix bad interaction between the ssh_config ConnectTimeout and
340 ConnectionAttempts directives - connection attempts after the first
341 were ignoring the requested timeout (LP: #1798049).
342 - ssh-keyscan(1): Return a non-zero exit status if no keys were found
343 (closes: #374980, LP: #1661745).
344 - scp(1): Sanitize scp filenames to allow UTF-8 characters without
345 terminal control sequences.
346 - sshd(8): Fix confusion between ClientAliveInterval and time-based
347 RekeyLimit that could cause connections to be incorrectly closed.
348 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Correct some bugs in PKCS#11 token PIN handling at
349 initial token login. The attempt to read the PIN could be skipped in
350 some cases, particularly on devices with integrated PIN readers. This
351 would lead to an inability to retrieve keys from these tokens.
352 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support keys on PKCS#11 tokens that set the
353 CKA_ALWAYS_AUTHENTICATE flag by requring a fresh login after the
354 C_SignInit operation.
355 - ssh(1): Improve documentation for ProxyJump/-J, clarifying that local
356 configuration does not apply to jump hosts.
357 - ssh-keygen(1): Clarify manual - ssh-keygen -e only writes public keys,
358 not private.
359 - ssh(1), sshd(8): be more strict in processing protocol banners,
360 allowing \r characters only immediately before \n.
361 - Various: fix a number of memory leaks.
362 - scp(1), sftp(1): fix calculation of initial bandwidth limits. Account
363 for bytes written before the timer starts and adjust the schedule on
364 which recalculations are performed. Avoids an initial burst of
365 traffic and yields more accurate bandwidth limits.
366 - sshd(8): Only consider the ext-info-c extension during the initial key
367 eschange. It shouldn't be sent in subsequent ones, but if it is
368 present we should ignore it. This prevents sshd from sending a
369 SSH_MSG_EXT_INFO for REKEX for these buggy clients.
370 - ssh-keygen(1): Clarify manual that ssh-keygen -F (find host in
371 authorized_keys) and -R (remove host from authorized_keys) options may
372 accept either a bare hostname or a [hostname]:port combo.
373 - ssh(1): Don't attempt to connect to empty SSH_AUTH_SOCK.
374 - sshd(8): Silence error messages when sshd fails to load some of the
375 default host keys. Failure to load an explicitly-configured hostkey
376 is still an error, and failure to load any host key is still fatal.
377 - ssh(1): Redirect stderr of ProxyCommands to /dev/null when ssh is
378 started with ControlPersist; prevents random ProxyCommand output from
379 interfering with session output.
380 - ssh(1): The ssh client was keeping a redundant ssh-agent socket
381 (leftover from authentication) around for the life of the connection.
382 - sshd(8): Fix bug in HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
383 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options. If only RSA-SHA2 signature types were
384 specified, then authentication would always fail for RSA keys as the
385 monitor checks only the base key (not the signature algorithm) type
386 against *AcceptedKeyTypes.
387 - ssh(1): Request correct signature types from ssh-agent when
388 certificate keys and RSA-SHA2 signatures are in use.
389 - sshd(8): Don't set $MAIL if UsePAM=yes as PAM typically specifies the
390 user environment if it's enabled (closes: #189920, #532754).
391 * Mostly resynced GSSAPI key exchange patch with Fedora. Major changes:
392 - Support selection of GSSAPI key exchange algorithms.
393 - Support GSSAPI key exchange methods with DH and SHA2.
394 - Support GSSAPI key exchange using ECDH and SHA2.
395 - Make sure the Kerberos tickets are cleaned up with the user context.
396 - Enable gssapi-keyex authentication without gssapi-with-mic.
397 - Allow querying for GSSAPI key exchange algorithms from ssh (-Q
398 kex-gss).
399 * Apply upstream patch to fix the utimensat regression tests when not
400 using the compatibility implementation.

502openssh (1:7.9p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
503
504 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.9):
505 - ssh(1), sshd(8): allow most port numbers to be specified using service
506 names from getservbyname(3) (typically /etc/services; closes:
507 #177406).
508 - ssh(1): allow the IdentityAgent configuration directive to accept
509 environment variable names. This supports the use of multiple agent
510 sockets without needing to use fixed paths.
511 - sshd(8): support signalling sessions via the SSH protocol. A limited
512 subset of signals is supported and only for login or command sessions
513 (i.e. not subsystems) that were not subject to a forced command via
514 authorized_keys or sshd_config.
515 - ssh(1): support "ssh -Q sig" to list supported signature options.
516 Also "ssh -Q help" to show the full set of supported queries.
517 - ssh(1), sshd(8): add a CASignatureAlgorithms option for the client and
518 server configs to allow control over which signature formats are
519 allowed for CAs to sign certificates. For example, this allows
520 banning CAs that sign certificates using the RSA-SHA1 signature
521 algorithm.
522 - sshd(8), ssh-keygen(1): allow key revocation lists (KRLs) to revoke
523 keys specified by SHA256 hash.
524 - ssh-keygen(1): allow creation of key revocation lists directly from
525 base64-encoded SHA256 fingerprints. This supports revoking keys using
526 only the information contained in sshd(8) authentication log messages.
527 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): avoid spurious "invalid format" errors when
528 attempting to load PEM private keys while using an incorrect
529 passphrase.
530 - sshd(8): when a channel closed message is received from a client,
531 close the stderr file descriptor at the same time stdout is closed.
532 This avoids stuck processes if they were waiting for stderr to close
533 and were insensitive to stdin/out closing (closes: #844494).
534 - ssh(1): allow ForwardX11Timeout=0 to disable the untrusted X11
535 forwarding timeout and support X11 forwarding indefinitely.
536 Previously the behaviour of ForwardX11Timeout=0 was undefined.
537 - sshd(8): when compiled with GSSAPI support, cache supported method
538 OIDs regardless of whether GSSAPI authentication is enabled in the
539 main section of sshd_config. This avoids sandbox violations if GSSAPI
540 authentication was later enabled in a Match block.
541 - sshd(8): do not fail closed when configured with a text key revocation
542 list that contains a too-short key.
543 - ssh(1): treat connections with ProxyJump specified the same as ones
544 with a ProxyCommand set with regards to hostname canonicalisation
545 (i.e. don't try to canonicalise the hostname unless
546 CanonicalizeHostname is set to 'always').
547 - ssh(1): fix regression in OpenSSH 7.8 that could prevent public-key
548 authentication using certificates hosted in a ssh-agent(1) or against
549 sshd(8) from OpenSSH <7.8 (LP: #1790963).
550 - All: support building against the openssl-1.1 API (releases 1.1.0g and
551 later). The openssl-1.0 API will remain supported at least until
552 OpenSSL terminates security patch support for that API version
553 (closes: #828475).
554 - sshd(8): allow the futex(2) syscall in the Linux seccomp sandbox;
555 apparently required by some glibc/OpenSSL combinations.
556 * Remove dh_builddeb override to use xz compression; this has been the
557 default since dpkg 1.17.0.
558 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/default.mk.
559 * Remove /etc/network/if-up.d/openssh-server, as it causes more problems
560 than it solves (thanks, Christian Ehrhardt, Andreas Hasenack, and David
561 Britton; closes: #789532, LP: #1037738, #1674330, #1718227). Add an
562 "if-up hook removed" section to README.Debian documenting the corner
563 case that may need configuration adjustments.

568
569 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.8, closes:
570 #907534):
571 - ssh-keygen(1): Write OpenSSH format private keys by default instead of
572 using OpenSSL's PEM format (closes: #905407). The OpenSSH format,
573 supported in OpenSSH releases since 2014 and described in the
574 PROTOCOL.key file in the source distribution, offers substantially
575 better protection against offline password guessing and supports key
576 comments in private keys. If necessary, it is possible to write old
577 PEM-style keys by adding "-m PEM" to ssh-keygen's arguments when
578 generating or updating a key.
579 - sshd(8): Remove internal support for S/Key multiple factor
580 authentication. S/Key may still be used via PAM or BSD auth.
581 - ssh(1): Remove vestigial support for running ssh(1) as setuid. This
582 used to be required for hostbased authentication and the (long gone)
583 rhosts-style authentication, but has not been necessary for a long
584 time. Attempting to execute ssh as a setuid binary, or with uid !=
585 effective uid will now yield a fatal error at runtime.
586 - sshd(8): The semantics of PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and the similar
587 HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes options have changed. These now specify
588 signature algorithms that are accepted for their respective
589 authentication mechanism, where previously they specified accepted key
590 types. This distinction matters when using the RSA/SHA2 signature
591 algorithms "rsa-sha2-256", "rsa-sha2-512" and their certificate
592 counterparts. Configurations that override these options but omit
593 these algorithm names may cause unexpected authentication failures (no
594 action is required for configurations that accept the default for
595 these options).
596 - sshd(8): The precedence of session environment variables has changed.
597 ~/.ssh/environment and environment="..." options in authorized_keys
598 files can no longer override SSH_* variables set implicitly by sshd.
599 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): The default IPQoS used by ssh/sshd has changed. They
600 will now use DSCP AF21 for interactive traffic and CS1 for bulk. For
601 a detailed rationale, please see the commit message:
602 https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/src/usr.bin/ssh/readconf.c#rev1.284
603 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Add new signature algorithms "rsa-sha2-256-cert-
604 v01@openssh.com" and "rsa-sha2-512-cert-v01@openssh.com" to explicitly
605 force use of RSA/SHA2 signatures in authentication.
606 - sshd(8): Extend the PermitUserEnvironment option to accept a whitelist
607 of environment variable names in addition to global "yes" or "no"
608 settings.
609 - sshd(8): Add a PermitListen directive to sshd_config(5) and a
610 corresponding permitlisten= authorized_keys option that control which
611 listen addresses and port numbers may be used by remote forwarding
612 (ssh -R ...).
613 - sshd(8): Add some countermeasures against timing attacks used for
614 account validation/enumeration. sshd will enforce a minimum time or
615 each failed authentication attempt consisting of a global 5ms minimum
616 plus an additional per-user 0-4ms delay derived from a host secret.
617 - sshd(8): Add a SetEnv directive to allow an administrator to
618 explicitly specify environment variables in sshd_config. Variables
619 set by SetEnv override the default and client-specified environment.
620 - ssh(1): Add a SetEnv directive to request that the server sets an
621 environment variable in the session. Similar to the existing SendEnv
622 option, these variables are set subject to server configuration.
623 - ssh(1): Allow "SendEnv -PATTERN" to clear environment variables
624 previously marked for sending to the server (closes: #573316).
625 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Make UID available as a %-expansion everywhere that
626 the username is available currently.
627 - ssh(1): Allow setting ProxyJump=none to disable ProxyJump
628 functionality.
629 - sshd(8): Avoid observable differences in request parsing that could be
630 used to determine whether a target user is valid.
631 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix some memory leaks.
632 - ssh(1): Fix a pwent clobber (introduced in openssh-7.7) that could
633 occur during key loading, manifesting as crash on some platforms.
634 - sshd_config(5): Clarify documentation for AuthenticationMethods
635 option.
636 - ssh(1): Ensure that the public key algorithm sent in a public key
637 SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_REQUEST matches the content of the signature blob.
638 Previously, these could be inconsistent when a legacy or non-OpenSSH
639 ssh-agent returned a RSA/SHA1 signature when asked to make a RSA/SHA2
640 signature.
641 - sshd(8): Fix failures to read authorized_keys caused by faulty
642 supplemental group caching.
643 - scp(1): Apply umask to directories, fixing potential mkdir/chmod race
644 when copying directory trees.
645 - ssh-keygen(1): Return correct exit code when searching for and hashing
646 known_hosts entries in a single operation.
647 - ssh(1): Prefer the ssh binary pointed to via argv[0] to $PATH when
648 re-executing ssh for ProxyJump.
649 - sshd(8): Do not ban PTY allocation when a sshd session is restricted
650 because the user password is expired as it breaks password change
651 dialog.
652 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix error reporting from select() failures.
653 - ssh(1): Improve documentation for -w (tunnel) flag, emphasising that
654 -w implicitly sets Tunnel=point-to-point.
655 - ssh-agent(1): Implement EMFILE mitigation for ssh-agent. ssh-agent
656 will no longer spin when its file descriptor limit is exceeded.
657 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Disable SSH2_MSG_DEBUG messages for Twisted Conch
658 clients. Twisted Conch versions that lack a version number in their
659 identification strings will mishandle these messages when running on
660 Python 2.x (https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9422).
661 - sftp(1): Notify user immediately when underlying ssh process dies
662 expectedly.
663 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix tunnel forwarding; regression in 7.7 release.
664 - ssh-agent(1): Don't kill ssh-agent's listening socket entirely if it
665 fails to accept(2) a connection.
666 - ssh(1): Add some missing options in the configuration dump output (ssh
667 -G).
668 - sshd(8): Expose details of completed authentication to PAM auth
669 modules via SSH_AUTH_INFO_0 in the PAM environment.

708
709 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.7):
710 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Drop compatibility support for some very old SSH
711 implementations, including ssh.com <=2.* and OpenSSH <= 3.*. These
712 versions were all released in or before 2001 and predate the final SSH
713 RFCs. The support in question isn't necessary for RFC-compliant SSH
714 implementations.
715 - Add experimental support for PQC XMSS keys (Extended Hash-Based
716 Signatures).
717 - sshd(8): Add an "rdomain" criterion for the sshd_config Match keyword
718 to allow conditional configuration that depends on which routing
719 domain a connection was received on.
720 - sshd_config(5): Add an optional rdomain qualifier to the ListenAddress
721 directive to allow listening on different routing domains.
722 - sshd(8): Add "expiry-time" option for authorized_keys files to allow
723 for expiring keys.
724 - ssh(1): Add a BindInterface option to allow binding the outgoing
725 connection to an interface's address (basically a more usable
726 BindAddress; closes: #289592).
727 - ssh(1): Expose device allocated for tun/tap forwarding via a new %T
728 expansion for LocalCommand. This allows LocalCommand to be used to
729 prepare the interface.
730 - sshd(8): Expose the device allocated for tun/tap forwarding via a new
731 SSH_TUNNEL environment variable. This allows automatic setup of the
732 interface and surrounding network configuration automatically on the
733 server.
734 - ssh(1)/scp(1)/sftp(1): Add URI support to ssh, sftp and scp, e.g.
735 ssh://user@host or sftp://user@host/path. Additional connection
736 parameters described in draft-ietf-secsh-scp-sftp-ssh-uri-04 are not
737 implemented since the ssh fingerprint format in the draft uses the
738 deprecated MD5 hash with no way to specify any other algorithm.
739 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow certificate validity intervals that specify only
740 a start or stop time (instead of both or neither).
741 - sftp(1): Allow "cd" and "lcd" commands with no explicit path argument.
742 lcd will change to the local user's home directory as usual. cd will
743 change to the starting directory for session (because the protocol
744 offers no way to obtain the remote user's home directory).
745 - sshd(8): When doing a config test with sshd -T, only require the
746 attributes that are actually used in Match criteria rather than (an
747 incomplete list of) all criteria.
748 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): More strictly check signature types during key
749 exchange against what was negotiated. Prevents downgrade of RSA
750 signatures made with SHA-256/512 to SHA-1.
751 - sshd(8): Fix support for client that advertise a protocol version of
752 "1.99" (indicating that they are prepared to accept both SSHv1 and
753 SSHv2). This was broken in OpenSSH 7.6 during the removal of SSHv1
754 support.
755 - ssh(1): Warn when the agent returns a ssh-rsa (SHA1) signature when a
756 rsa-sha2-256/512 signature was requested. This condition is possible
757 when an old or non-OpenSSH agent is in use.
758 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression introduced in 7.6 that caused ssh-agent
759 to fatally exit if presented an invalid signature request message.
760 - sshd_config(5): Accept yes/no flag options case-insensitively, as has
761 been the case in ssh_config(5) for a long time (LP: #1656557).
762 - ssh(1): Improve error reporting for failures during connection. Under
763 some circumstances misleading errors were being shown.
764 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add -D option to allow printing of results directly in
765 SSHFP format.
766 - ssh(1): Compatibility fix for some servers that erroneously drop the
767 connection when the IUTF8 (RFC8160) option is sent.
768 - scp(1): Disable RemoteCommand and RequestTTY in the ssh session
769 started by scp (sftp was already doing this).
770 - ssh-keygen(1): Refuse to create a certificate with an unusable number
771 of principals.
772 - ssh-keygen(1): Fatally exit if ssh-keygen is unable to write all the
773 public key during key generation. Previously it would silently ignore
774 errors writing the comment and terminating newline.
775 - ssh(1): Do not modify hostname arguments that are addresses by
776 automatically forcing them to lower-case. Instead canonicalise them
777 jo resolve ambiguities (e.g. ::0001 => ::1) before they are matched
778 against known_hosts.
779 - ssh(1): Don't accept junk after "yes" or "no" responses to hostkey
780 prompts.
781 - sftp(1): Have sftp print a warning about shell cleanliness when
782 decoding the first packet fails, which is usually caused by shells
783 polluting stdout of non-interactive startups.
784 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Switch timers in packet code from using wall-clock
785 time to monotonic time, allowing the packet layer to better function
786 over a clock step and avoiding possible integer overflows during
787 steps.
788 - sshd(8): Correctly detect MIPS ABI in use at configure time. Fixes
789 sandbox violations on some environments.
790 - Build and link with "retpoline" flags when available to mitigate the
791 "branch target injection" style (variant 2) of the Spectre
792 branch-prediction vulnerability.

841 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.6):
842 - CVE-2017-15906: sftp-server(8): In read-only mode, sftp-server was
843 incorrectly permitting creation of zero-length files. Reported by
844 Michal Zalewski.
845 - ssh(1): Delete SSH protocol version 1 support, associated
846 configuration options and documentation (LP: #1584321).
847 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove support for the hmac-ripemd160 MAC.
848 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove support for the arcfour, blowfish and CAST
849 ciphers.
850 - Refuse RSA keys <1024 bits in length and improve reporting for keys
851 that do not meet this requirement.
852 - ssh(1): Do not offer CBC ciphers by default.
853 - ssh(1): Add RemoteCommand option to specify a command in the ssh
854 config file instead of giving it on the client's command line. This
855 allows the configuration file to specify the command that will be
856 executed on the remote host.
857 - sshd(8): Add ExposeAuthInfo option that enables writing details of the
858 authentication methods used (including public keys where applicable)
859 to a file that is exposed via a $SSH_USER_AUTH environment variable in
860 the subsequent session.
861 - ssh(1): Add support for reverse dynamic forwarding. In this mode, ssh
862 will act as a SOCKS4/5 proxy and forward connections to destinations
863 requested by the remote SOCKS client. This mode is requested using
864 extended syntax for the -R and RemoteForward options and, because it
865 is implemented solely at the client, does not require the server be
866 updated to be supported.
867 - sshd(8): Allow LogLevel directive in sshd_config Match blocks.
868 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow inclusion of arbitrary string or flag certificate
869 extensions and critical options.
870 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to use a key held in ssh-agent as a CA
871 when signing certificates.
872 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Allow IPQoS=none in ssh/sshd to not set an explicit
873 ToS/DSCP value and just use the operating system default.
874 - ssh-add(1): Add -q option to make ssh-add quiet on success.
875 - ssh(1): Expand the StrictHostKeyChecking option with two new settings.
876 The first "accept-new" will automatically accept hitherto-unseen keys
877 but will refuse connections for changed or invalid hostkeys. This is
878 a safer subset of the current behaviour of StrictHostKeyChecking=no.
879 The second setting "off", is a synonym for the current behaviour of
880 StrictHostKeyChecking=no: accept new host keys, and continue
881 connection for hosts with incorrect hostkeys. A future release will
882 change the meaning of StrictHostKeyChecking=no to the behaviour of
883 "accept-new".
884 - ssh(1): Add SyslogFacility option to ssh(1) matching the equivalent
885 option in sshd(8).
886 - ssh(1): Use HostKeyAlias if specified instead of hostname for matching
887 host certificate principal names.
888 - sftp(1): Implement sorting for globbed ls.
889 - ssh(1): Add a user@host prefix to client's "Permission denied"
890 messages, useful in particular when using "stacked" connections (e.g.
891 ssh -J) where it's not clear which host is denying.
892 - ssh(1): Accept unknown EXT_INFO extension values that contain \0
893 characters. These are legal, but would previously cause fatal
894 connection errors if received.
895 - sftp(1): Print '?' instead of incorrect link count (that the protocol
896 doesn't provide) for remote listings.
897 - ssh(1): Return failure rather than fatal() for more cases during
898 session multiplexing negotiations. Causes the session to fall back to
899 a non-mux connection if they occur.
900 - ssh(1): Mention that the server may send debug messages to explain
901 public key authentication problems under some circumstances.
902 - Translate OpenSSL error codes to better report incorrect passphrase
903 errors when loading private keys.
904 - sshd(8): Adjust compatibility patterns for WinSCP to correctly
905 identify versions that implement only the legacy DH group exchange
906 scheme (closes: #877800).
907 - ssh(1): Print the "Killed by signal 1" message only at LogLevel
908 verbose so that it is not shown at the default level; prevents it from
909 appearing during ssh -J and equivalent ProxyCommand configs.
910 - ssh-keygen(1): When generating all hostkeys (ssh-keygen -A), clobber
911 existing keys if they exist but are zero length. Zero-length keys
912 could previously be made if ssh-keygen failed or was interrupted part
913 way through generating them.
914 - ssh-keyscan(1): Avoid double-close() on file descriptors.
915 - sshd(8): Avoid reliance on shared use of pointers shared between
916 monitor and child sshd processes.
917 - sshd_config(8): Document available AuthenticationMethods.
918 - ssh(1): Avoid truncation in some login prompts.
919 - ssh(1): Make "--" before the hostname terminate argument processing
920 after the hostname too (closes: #873201).
921 - ssh-keygen(1): Switch from aes256-cbc to aes256-ctr for encrypting
922 new-style private keys.
923 - ssh(1): Warn and do not attempt to use keys when the public and
924 private halves do not match.
925 - sftp(1): Don't print verbose error message when ssh disconnects from
926 under sftp.
927 - sshd(8): Fix keepalive scheduling problem: prevent activity on a
928 forwarded port from preventing the keepalive from being sent.
929 - sshd(8): When started without root privileges, don't require the
930 privilege separation user or path to exist.
931 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Correctness fix for channels implementation: accept
932 channel IDs greater than 0x7FFFFFFF.
933 - sshd(8): Expose list of completed authentication methods to PAM via
934 the SSH_AUTH_INFO_0 PAM environment variable.
935 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix several problems in the tun/tap forwarding code,
936 mostly to do with host/network byte order confusion.
937 - sshd(8): Avoid Linux seccomp violations on ppc64le over the socketcall
938 syscall.
939 * Build-depend on debhelper (>= 9.20160709~) rather than dh-systemd.
940 * Change priorities of ssh and ssh-krb5 binary packages to optional, since
941 "Priority: extra" is now deprecated.
942 * Use HTTPS form of copyright-format URL.
943 * Adjust "Running sshd from inittab" instructions in README.Debian to
944 recommend using service(8) rather than calling the init script directly.
945 * Policy version 4.1.0.
946 * Adjust "Per-connection sshd instances with systemd" instructions in
947 README.Debian to recommend using a drop-in file rather than copying and
948 modifying the ssh.socket unit file.

1044
1045 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.5):
1046 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle
1047 countermeasures that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH
1048 7.3 to proceed. Note that the OpenSSH client disables CBC ciphers by
1049 default, sshd offers them as lowest-preference options and will remove
1050 them by default entirely in the next release.
1051 - This release deprecates the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation option,
1052 thereby making privilege separation mandatory (closes: #407754).
1053 - The format of several log messages emitted by the packet code has
1054 changed to include additional information about the user and their
1055 authentication state. Software that monitors ssh/sshd logs may need
1056 to account for these changes.
1057 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
1058 algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
1059 - sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start messages
1060 are sent out of sequence.
1061 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in configuration
1062 files.
1063 - sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the server-sig-algs
1064 extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were not being correctly
1065 advertised.
1066 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
1067 known_hosts processing.
1068 - ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
1069 file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
1070 - ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option, accept
1071 RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype. Previously,
1072 ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-* methods were
1073 enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa method.
1074 - ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file lines.
1075 - Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat and
1076 FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor leaks in
1077 error paths.
1078 - ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
1079 "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
1080 - ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
1081 line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat square
1082 bracket characters specially.
1083 - Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol 1
1084 support from the server, including the server banner string being
1085 incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing error
1086 messages from ssh-keyscan, and a segfault in sshd if protocol v.1 was
1087 enabled for the client and sshd_config contained references to legacy
1088 keys.
1089 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
1090 - sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server returns
1091 zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
1092 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
1093 encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
1094 - ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
1095 printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
1096 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
1097 feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
1098 - sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
1099 AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
1100 matched early.
1101 - ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
1102 cancellation.
1103 - ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files can't
1104 be opened.
1105 - sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token in
1106 AuthorizedKeysCommand.
1107 - sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM.
1108 - ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and common
1109 32-bit compatibility library directories.
1110 - sftp-client(1): Fix non-exploitable integer overflow in SSH2_FXP_NAME
1111 response handling.
1112 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression in 7.4 of deleting PKCS#11-hosted keys.
1113 It was not possible to delete them except by specifying their full
1114 physical path.
1115 - sshd(8): Avoid sandbox errors for Linux S390 systems using an ICA
1116 crypto coprocessor.
1117 - sshd(8): Fix non-exploitable weakness in seccomp-bpf sandbox arg
1118 inspection.
1119 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sftp(1): Fix output truncation for various that
1120 contain non-printable characters where the codeset in use is ASCII.

1220
1221 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
1222 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
1223 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
1224 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
1225 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
1226 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
1227 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
1228 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
1229 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
1230 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
1231 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
1232 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
1233 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
1234 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
1235 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
1236 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
1237 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
1238 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
1239 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
1240 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
1241 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
1242 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
1243 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
1244 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
1245 (closes: #848714).
1246 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
1247 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
1248 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
1249 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
1250 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
1251 years) (closes: #848715).
1252 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
1253 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
1254 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
1255 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
1256 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
1257 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
1258 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
1259 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
1260 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
1261 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
1262 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
1263 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
1264 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
1265 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
1266 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
1267 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
1268 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
1269 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
1270 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
1271 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
1272 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
1273 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
1274 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
1275 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
1276 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
1277 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
1278 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
1279 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
1280 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
1281 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
1282 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
1283 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
1284 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
1285 way of restricting an account.
1286 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
1287 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
1288 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
1289 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
1290 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
1291 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
1292 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
1293 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
1294 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
1295 configuration error.
1296 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
1297 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
1298 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
1299 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
1300 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
1301 being offered.
1302 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
1303 that have no corresponding bare public key.
1304 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
1305 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
1306 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
1307 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
1308 messages.
1309 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
1310 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
1311 - sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before suspending
1312 sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode correctly if
1313 suspended during a password prompt.
1314 - ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
1315 prompt (LP: #1646813).
1316 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-info
1317 messages.
1318 - sshd(8): Fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-sequence
1319 NEWKEYS message.
1320 - sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in the
1321 server-sig-algs extension.
1322 - sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
1323 - sshd(8): More strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
1324 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
1325 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
1326 configuration.
1327 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
1328 configuration examples.
1329 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
1330 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that
1331 locale's unique handling of the letters 'i' and 'I' (LP: #1638338).
1332 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
1333 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
1334 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
1335 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
1336 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
1337 generated on new installations.
1338 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
1339 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
1340 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
1341 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
1342 #419574, #848089):
1343 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
1344 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
1345 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
1346 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
1347 I've missed some.
1348 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
1349 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
1350 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
1351 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
1352 than "yes", per upstream.
1353 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
1354 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to
1355 300 by default if BatchMode is set is Debian-specific (closes: #765630).
1356 * Build gnome-ssh-askpass with GTK+ 3 (LP: #801187).
1357 * When running regression tests under autopkgtest, use a non-root user
1358 with passwordless sudo.

1400
1401 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
1402 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
1403 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
1404 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
1405 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
1406 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
1407 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
1408 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
1409 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
1410 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
1411 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
1412 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
1413 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
1414 though no such leakage has been observed.
1415 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
1416 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
1417 "jump hosts".
1418 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
1419 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.
1420 - ssh(1): Allow ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings to be
1421 optionally overridden when using ssh -W.
1422 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Implement support for the IUTF8 terminal mode as per
1423 draft-sgtatham-secsh-iutf8-00 (closes: #337041, LP: #394570).
1424 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for additional fixed Diffie-Hellman 2K,
1425 4K and 8K groups from draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2-03.
1426 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sshd(8): Support SHA256 and SHA512 RSA
1427 signatures in certificates.
1428 - ssh(1): Add an Include directive for ssh_config(5) files (closes:
1429 #536031).
1430 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
1431 from the server.
1432 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
1433 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
1434 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
1435 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
1436 multiple authentication.
1437 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
1438 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
1439 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
1440 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
1441 are enabled.
1442 - sshd(8): Remove fallback from moduli to obsolete "primes" file that
1443 was deprecated in 2001 (LP: #1528251).
1444 - sshd_config(5): Correct description of UseDNS: it affects ssh hostname
1445 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
1446 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
1447 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
1448 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf
1449 sandbox.
1450 - scp(1): Respect the local user's LC_CTYPE locale (closes: #396295).
1451 - Take character display widths into account for the progressmeter
1452 (closes: #407088).

1556 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
1557 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
1558 default in ssh:
1559 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
1560 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
1561 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
1562 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
1563 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
1564 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
1565 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
1566 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
1567 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
1568 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
1569 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
1570 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
1571 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
1572 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
1573 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
1574 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
1575 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
1576 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
1577 'confirm').
1578 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
1579 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
1580 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
1581 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
1582 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
1583 we might implement in the future.
1584 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
1585 certificates.
1586 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
1587 supported formats (closes: #811125).
1588 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
1589 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
1590 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
1591 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
1592 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
1593 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
1594 default.
1595 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
1596 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
1597 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
1598 certificates instead of plain keys.
1599 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
1600 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
1601 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
1602 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate
1603 recursive uploads (regression in OpenSSH 6.8; LP: #1553378).
1604 * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs, and link to cgit rather than gitweb.

1687
1688 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.0, closes:
1689 #785190):
1690 - Support for the legacy SSH version 1 protocol is disabled by default
1691 at compile time.
1692 - Support for the 1024-bit diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 key exchange is
1693 disabled by default at run-time. It may be re-enabled using the
1694 instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
1695 - Support for ssh-dss, ssh-dss-cert-* host and user keys is disabled by
1696 default at run-time. These may be re-enabled using the instructions
1697 at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
1698 - Support for the legacy v00 cert format has been removed.
1699 - The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has changed
1700 from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
1701 - PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
1702 interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
1703 hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
1704 keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those were
1705 enabled).
1706 - ssh_config(5): Add PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes option to control which
1707 public key types are available for user authentication.
1708 - sshd_config(5): Add HostKeyAlgorithms option to control which public
1709 key types are offered for host authentications.
1710 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Extend Ciphers, MACs, KexAlgorithms,
1711 HostKeyAlgorithms, PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and HostbasedKeyTypes
1712 options to allow appending to the default set of algorithms instead of
1713 replacing it. Options may now be prefixed with a '+' to append to the
1714 default, e.g. "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss".
1715 - sshd_config(5): PermitRootLogin now accepts an argument of
1716 'prohibit-password' as a less-ambiguous synonym of 'without-
1717 password'.
1718 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatability workarounds for Cisco and more
1719 PuTTY versions.
1720 - Fix some omissions and errors in the PROTOCOL and PROTOCOL.mux
1721 documentation relating to Unix domain socket forwarding.
1722 - ssh(1): Improve the ssh(1) manual page to include a better description
1723 of Unix domain socket forwarding (closes: #779068).
1724 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Skip uninitialised PKCS#11 slots, fixing
1725 failures to load keys when they are present.
1726 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Do not ignore PKCS#11 hosted keys that wth empty
1727 CKA_ID.
1728 - sshd(8): Clarify documentation for UseDNS option.
1729 - Check realpath(3) behaviour matches what sftp-server requires and use
1730 a replacement if necessary.
1731 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.1):
1732 - sshd(8): OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in PermitRootLogin=
1733 prohibit-password/without-password that could, depending on
1734 compile-time configuration, permit password authentication to root
1735 while preventing other forms of authentication. This problem was
1736 reported by Mantas Mikulenas.
1737 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.
1738 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
1739 - Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
1740 memory, etc) in ssh(1) and ssh-keygen(1). Reported by Mateusz
1741 Kocielski.
1742 * Change "PermitRootLogin without-password" to the new preferred spelling
1743 of "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password" in sshd_config, and update
1744 documentation to reflect the new upstream default.
1745 * Enable conch interoperability tests under autopkgtest.

1774
1775 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
1776 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
1777 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
1778 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
1779 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
1780 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
1781 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
1782 from hex to base64.
1783 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
1784 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
1785 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
1786 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
1787 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
1788 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
1789 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
1790 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
1791 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
1792 option (default off).
1793 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
1794 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
1795 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
1796 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
1797 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
1798 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
1799 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
1800 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
1801 authentication.
1802 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
1803 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
1804 decryption.
1805 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
1806 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
1807 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
1808 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
1809 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
1810 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
1811 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
1812 all.
1813 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
1814 against MaxAuthTries.
1815 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
1816 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
1817 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
1818 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
1819 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
1820 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
1821 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
1822 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
1823 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
1824 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against
1825 servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol (closes: #241119).
1826 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were
1827 being lost as comment fields (closes: #787776).
1828 - ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse
1829 phase to be applied (they were being ignored; closes: #774369).
1830 - ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the
1831 second pass through the config files always run when host name
1832 canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes)
1833 - ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection
1834 multiplexing is in use.
1835 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH
1836 formats.
1837 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use.
1838 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
1839 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
1840 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
1841 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
1842 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
1843 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
1844 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
1845 by Jann Horn.
1846 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
1847 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
1848 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
1849 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
1850 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
1851 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
1852 (closes: #740494).
1853 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
1854 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
1855 file.
1856 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
1857 devices.
1858 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
1859 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
1860 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
1861 enabling debug mode.
1862 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
1863 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
1864 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
1865 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
1866 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
1867 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).
1868 - ssh(1): Fix out-of-bound read in EscapeChar configuration option
1869 parsing.
1870 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
1871 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
1872 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
1873 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from
1874 the list of active forwards.
1875 - sshd(8): Make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options
1876 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
1877 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
1878 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
1879 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
1880 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
1881 options to appear in any order.
1882 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
1883 and ForceCommand.
1884 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
1885 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
1886 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
1887 forwarding requested.
1888 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
1889 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
1890 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
1891 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
1892 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
1893 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
1894 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
1895 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
1896 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
1897 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
1898 host key fingerprints.
1899 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
1900 language consistent.
1901 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
1902 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
1903 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
1904 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
1905 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
1906 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
1907 to fix security issues:
1908 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
1909 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
1910 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
1911 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
1912 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
1913 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
1914 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
1915 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
1916 Moritz Jodeit.
1917 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
1918 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
1919 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
1920 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
1921 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
1922 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
1923 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
1924 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
1925 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
1926 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
1927 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
1928 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
1929 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
1930 GSSAPI key exchange patch.

1989
1990 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
1991 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
1992 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
1993 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
1994 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
1995 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
1996 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
1997 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
1998 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
1999 key types.
2000 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
2001 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
2002 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
2003 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
2004 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
2005 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
2006 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
2007 option.
2008 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
2009 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
2010 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
2011 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
2012 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
2013 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
2014 authentication success / failure messages.
2015 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
2016 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
2017 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
2018 #734553).
2019 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
2020 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
2021 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
2022 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
2023 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
2024 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
2025 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
2026 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
2027 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
2028 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
2029 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
2030 field.
2031 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
2032 simply a new enough dpkg.
2033 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
2034 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
2035 field.
2036 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
2037 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

2192 * Bump guard version for sysvinit->systemd transition to 1:6.5p1-3; we may
2193 have got it wrong before, and it's fairly harmless to repeat it.
2194 * Remove tests for whether /dev/null is a character device from the

2223 LP: #1275068):
2224 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
2225 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
2226 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
2227 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking

2229 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
2230 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
2231 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
2232 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
2233 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
2234 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
2235 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See

2330
2331 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
2332 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
2333 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
2334 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
2335 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
2336 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
2337 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
2338 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
2339 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
2340 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
2341 the packaging.
2342 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
2343 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
2344 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
2345 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
2346 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
2347 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
2348 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
2349 openssh-server.postinst.
2350 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
2351 via dh_installdeb.
2352 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
2353 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
2354 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
2355 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
2356 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
2357 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
2358 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
2359 chroot.
2360 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
2361 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
2362 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
2363 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.

2638 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
2639 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
2640 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
2641 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
2642 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
2643 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
2644 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
2645 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
2646 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
2647 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
2648 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
2649 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
2650 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
2651 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
2652 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
2653 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
2654 (closes: #594687).
2655 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
2656 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
2657 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
2658 it to be stripped off).
2659 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2660 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
2661 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
2662 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
2663 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
2664 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
2665 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
2666 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
2667 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.

2787 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
2788 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
2789 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
2790 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
2791 or on the command-line.
2792 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
2793 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
2794 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
2795 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
2796 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
2797 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
2798 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
2799 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
2800 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
2801 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
2802 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
2803 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
2804 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
2805 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
2806 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
2807 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
2808 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
2809 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
2810 (closes: #270399, #428082).
2811 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
2812 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
2813 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
2814 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
2815
2816 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
2817 patches apply with offsets.
2818 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
2819 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
2820 around with uudecode.
2821 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
2822 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
2823 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
2824 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
2825 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
2826 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
2827 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
2828 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
2829 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
2830 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
2831 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
2832 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
2833 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
2834 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
2835 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
2836 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
2837 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
2838 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
2839 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
2840 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
2841 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
2842 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
2843 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
2844 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
2845 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
2846 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
2847 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
2848 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
2849 * Policy version 3.8.4:
2850 - Add a Homepage field.

2884 * Backport from upstream:
2885 - Do not fall back to adding keys without constraints (ssh-add -c / -t
2886 ...) when the agent refuses the constrained add request. This was a
2887 useful migration measure back in 2002 when constraints were new, but
2888 just adds risk now (LP: #209447).
2889 * Drop change from 1:3.8p1-3 to avoid setresuid() and setresgid() system
2890 calls. This only applied to Linux 2.2, which it's no longer feasible to
2891 run anyway (see 1:5.2p1-2 changelog).

2897 [ Colin Watson ]
2898 * Backport from upstream:
2899 - After sshd receives a SIGHUP, ignore subsequent HUPs while sshd
2900 re-execs itself. Prevents two HUPs in quick succession from resulting
2901 in sshd dying (LP: #497781).
2902 - Output a debug if we can't open an existing keyfile (LP: #505301).
2903 * Use host compiler for ssh-askpass-gnome when cross-compiling.
2904 * Don't run tests when cross-compiling.
2905 * Drop change from 1:3.6.1p2-5 to disable cmsg_type check for file
2906 descriptor passing when running on Linux 2.0. The previous stable
2907 release of Debian dropped support for Linux 2.4, let alone 2.0, so this
2908 very likely has no remaining users depending on it.

2919 * New upstream release (closes: #536182). Yes, I know 5.3p1 has been out
2920 for a while, but there's no GSSAPI patch available for it yet.
2921 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
2922 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
2923 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
2924 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
2925 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
2926 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
2927 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
2928 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
2929 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
2930 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
2931 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
2932 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the
2933 internal-sftp server (closes: #524423, LP: #362511).
2934 - Add AllowAgentForwarding to available Match keywords list (closes:
2935 #540623).
2936 - Make ssh(1) send the correct channel number for
2937 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
2938 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
2939 openssh-5.1.
2940 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
2941 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
2942 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).
2943 - Disable nonfunctional ssh(1) ~C escape handler in multiplex slave
2944 connections (closes: #507541).
2945 - Fix "whitepsace" typo in ssh_config(5) (closes: #514313, LP: #303835).

2948 including cascading credentials support (LP: #416958).

2963 * Cope with insserv reordering of init script links.
2964 * Remove init script stop link in rc1, as killprocs handles it already.

3029 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there

3076
3077 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
3078 backported to 4.7p1:
3079 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
3080 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
3081 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
3082 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
3083 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
3084 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
3085 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
3086 inside the chroot environment.
3087 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
3088 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
3089 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
3090 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
3091 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
3092 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
3093 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
3094 also allow Protocol 1.
3095 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
3096 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
3097 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
3098 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
3099 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
3100 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
3101 embedded backslash escape sequences.
3102 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
3103 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
3104 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
3105 /bin/sh.
3106 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
3107 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
3108 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
3109 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
3110 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
3111 connections via a ProxyCommand.
3112 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
3113 #140828).
3114 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
3115 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
3116 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
3117 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
3118 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
3119 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
3120 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
3121 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
3122 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
3123 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
3124 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
3125 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
3126 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
3127 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
3128 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
3129 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
3130 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
3131 (LP: #119295).
3132 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
3133 chroot (LP: #237557).
3134 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
3135 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
3136 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
3137 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
3138 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
3139 rejection of changed host keys.
3140 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
3141 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
3142 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
3143 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
3144 matching.
3145 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
3146 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
3147 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
3148 source address and hostname) to test the application of
3149 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
3150 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
3151 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
3152 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
3153 connections only).
3154 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
3155 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
3156 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
3157 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
3158 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
3159 the server).
3160 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
3161 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
3162 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
3163 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
3164 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
3165 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
3166 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
3167 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
3168 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
3169 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
3170 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
3171 hijacked.
3172 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
3173 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
3174 fingerprint.
3175 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
3176 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
3177 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
3178 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
3179 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
3180 forwarder.
3181 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
3182 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
3183 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
3184 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
3185 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
3186 address and give up if that failed.
3187 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
3188 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
3189 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
3190 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
3191 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
3192 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
3193 from 768 to 1024 bits.
3194 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
3195 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
3196 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
3197 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
3198 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
3199 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
3200 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
3201 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
3202 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
3203 blocks.
3204 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
3205 that are available to a primary connection.
3206 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
3207 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
3208 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
3209 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
3210 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
3211 server runs out of file descriptors).
3212 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
3213 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
3214 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
3215 platforms.
3216 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
3217 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
3218 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
3219 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
3220 targets).
3221 * Merge from Ubuntu:
3222 - Add 'status' action to openssh-server init script, requiring lsb-base
3223 (>= 3.2-13) (thanks, Dustin Kirkland).

3459 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
3460 (closes: #444738).
3461 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
3462 installations are unchanged.
3463 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
3464 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
3465 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
3466 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
3467 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
3468 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
3469 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
3470 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
3471 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
3472 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
3473 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
3474 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
3475 without passing the full exit status.
3476 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
3477 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
3478 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
3479 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
3480 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
3481 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
3482 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
3483 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
3484 mechanisms.
3485 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
3486 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
3487 into the client.
3488 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
3489 have been established.
3490 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
3491 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
3492 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
3493 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
3494 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed

3590 terminal" message at loglevels QUIET and SILENT (closes: #366814).
3591 * Document the SILENT loglevel in sftp-server(8), ssh_config(5), and
3592 sshd_config(5).
3593 * Add try-restart action to init script.
3594 * Add /etc/network/if-up.d/openssh-server to restart sshd when new
3595 interfaces appear (LP: #103436).
3596 * Backport from upstream:
3597 - Move C/R -> kbdint special case to after the defaults have been
3598 loaded, which makes ChallengeResponse default to yes again. This was
3599 broken by the Match changes and not fixed properly subsequently
3600 (closes: #428968).
3601 - Silence spurious error messages from hang-on-exit fix

3607
3608 * New upstream release (closes: #395507, #397961, #420035). Important
3609 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
3610 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.4):
3611 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
3612 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
3613 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
3614 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
3615 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
3616 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
3617 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
3618 be added in future releases.
3619 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
3620 final hash of SHA256.
3621 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
3622 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
3623 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
3624 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
3625 option.
3626 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
3627 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
3628 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
3629 establish.
3630 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
3631 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
3632 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
3633 (closes: #50612).
3634 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
3635 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
3636 established.
3637 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
3638 specification of command-line arguments.
3639 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
3640 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
3641 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
3642 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
3643 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
3644 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
3645 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
3646 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
3647 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
3648 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
3649 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
3650 liberal (closes: #103677).
3651 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
3652 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
3653 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
3654 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
3655 in sshd_config.
3656 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
3657 progress meter (closes: #257524).
3658 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
3659 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
3660 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
3661 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
3662 install ChangeLog.gssapi.
3663 * Build the .deb --with-ssl-engine (closes: #408027, LP: #119295).
3664 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
3665 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).
3666 * Move init script start links to S16, move rc1 stop link to K84, and
3667 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
3668 closes: #122188).
3669 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
3670 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
3671 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
3672 * Merge from Ubuntu:
3673 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
3674 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
3675 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
3676 the default path.
3677 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
3678 openssh-client dependency.

3748 [ Colin Watson ]
3749 * Drop versioning on ssh/ssh-krb5 Replaces, as otherwise it isn't
3750 sufficient to replace conffiles (closes: #402804).
3751 * Make GSSAPICleanupCreds a compatibility alias for
3752 GSSAPICleanupCredentials. Mark GSSUseSessionCCache and
3753 GSSAPIUseSessionCredCache as known-but-unsupported options, and migrate
3754 away from them on upgrade.
3755 * It turns out that the people who told me that removing a conffile in the
3756 preinst was sufficient to have dpkg replace it without prompting when
3757 moving a conffile between packages were very much mistaken. As far as I
3758 can tell, the only way to do this reliably is to write out the desired
3759 new text of the conffile in the preinst. This is gross, and requires
3760 shipping the text of all conffiles in the preinst too, but there's
3761 nothing for it. Fortunately this nonsense is only required for smooth
3762 upgrades from sarge.

3826 - CVE-2006-4924: Fix a pre-authentication denial of service found by
3827 Tavis Ormandy, that would cause sshd(8) to spin until the login grace
3828 time expired (closes: #389995).
3829 - CVE-2006-5051: Fix an unsafe signal hander reported by Mark Dowd. The
3830 signal handler was vulnerable to a race condition that could be
3831 exploited to perform a pre-authentication denial of service. On
3832 portable OpenSSH, this vulnerability could theoretically lead to

3878 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
3879 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
3880 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
3881 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
3882 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
3883 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
3884 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
3885 scp (closes: #349645).
3886 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
3887 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
3888 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
3889 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
3890 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
3891 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3892 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
3893 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
3894 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
3895 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
3896 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
3897 background at the time of session exit.
3898 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
3899 without arguments (closes: #114894).
3900 - Fix timing variance for valid vs. invalid accounts when attempting
3901 Kerberos authentication.
3902 - Ensure that ssh always returns code 255 on internal error
3903 (closes: #259865).
3904 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
3905 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
3906 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
3907 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:
3908 https://launchpad.net/bugs/25528).
3909 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
3910 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
3911 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
3912 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
3913 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
3914 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
3915 - Many manual page improvements.
3916 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
3917 possible crashes.
3918 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
3919 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.3p2-gsskex-20060223.patch
3920 (closes: #352042).
3921 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
3922 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
3923 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
3924 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
3925 (closes: #349896).
3926 * Rephrase ssh/new_config and ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen debconf
3927 templates to make boolean short descriptions end with a question mark
3928 and to avoid use of the first person.

3980 * Only send GSSAPI proposal if GSSAPIAuthentication is enabled.
3981 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8-1) to cope with surprise OpenSSL
3982 transition, since otherwise who knows what the buildds will do. If
3983 you're building openssh yourself, you can safely ignore this and use an

4023 * New upstream release.
4024 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2797): Fix a bug introduced in OpenSSH 4.0 that
4025 caused GatewayPorts to be incorrectly activated for dynamic ("-D")
4026 port forwardings when no listen address was explicitly specified
4027 (closes: #326065).
4028 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2798): Fix improper delegation of GSSAPI
4029 credentials. This code is only built in openssh-krb5, not openssh, but
4030 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
4031 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
4032 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
4033 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
4034 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable
4035 compression on the client or set "Compression yes" (losing this
4036 security benefit) on the server.
4037 - Increase the default size of new RSA/DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
4038 from 1024 to 2048 bits (closes: #181162).
4039 - Many bugfixes and improvements to connection multiplexing.
4040 - Don't pretend to accept $HOME (closes: #208648).
4041 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
4042 * openssh-client and openssh-server conflict with pre-split ssh to avoid
4043 problems when ssh is left un-upgraded (closes: #324695).
4044 * Set X11Forwarding to yes in the default sshd_config (new installs only).
4045 At least when X11UseLocalhost is turned on, which is the default, the
4046 security risks of using X11 forwarding are risks to the client, not to
4047 the server (closes: #320104).

4093 * SELinux support (thanks, Manoj Srivastava; closes: #308555):
4094 - Added SELinux capability, and turned it on be default. Added
4095 restorecon calls in preinst and postinst (should not matter if the
4096 machine is not SELinux aware). By and large, the changes made should
4097 have no effect unless the rules file calls --with-selinux; and even
4098 then there should be no performance hit for machines not actively
4099 running SELinux.
4100 - Modified the preinst and postinst to call restorecon to set the
4101 security context for the generated public key files.
4102 - Added a comment to /etc/pam.d/ssh to indicate that an SELinux system
4103 may want to also include pam_selinux.so.
4104 * Re-enable ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, now that its build-dependencies
4105 are available.
4106 * Restore /usr/lib/sftp-server temporarily, as a symlink to

4123 and has not been the default since openssh 1:3.0.1p1-1. Users who need
4124 this should edit sshd_config instead (closes: #147212).
4125 * Since ssh-keysign isn't used by default (you need to set
4126 EnableSSHKeysign to "yes" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config), having a debconf
4127 question to ask whether it should be setuid is overkill, and the
4128 question text had got out of date anyway. Remove this question, ship
4129 ssh-keysign setuid in openssh-client.deb, and set a statoverride if the
4130 debconf question was previously set to false.

4145 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
4146 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may
4147 provide two sets of binaries built with and without this option, since
4148 it seems I can't win.
4149 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
4150 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
4151 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).
4152 * openssh-server Suggests: rssh (closes: #233012).

4163 - Port-forwarding specifications now take optional bind addresses, and
4164 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
4165 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
4166 (closes: #87253, #192206).
4167 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
4168 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
4169 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
4170 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
4171 (closes: #287013).
4172 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
4173 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
4174 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
4175 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
4176 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
4177 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
4178 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
4179 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
4180 closes: #296487).
4181 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
4182 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
4183 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
4184 - Link with -lcrypt.
4185 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
4186 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
4187 satisfy build-dependencies.
4188 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
4189 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
4190 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
4191 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
4192 (closes: #307069).

4305 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
4306 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends

4308 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
4309 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
4310 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
4311 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
4312 and ssh/user_environment_tell.
4313 * Add a heuristic to try to make sure the sshd_config upgrade to >= 3.7
4314 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
4315 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
4316 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing

4488 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
4489 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
4490 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
4491 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
4492 syslog (closes: #171673).
4493 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
4494 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
4495 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
4496 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
4497 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
4498 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
4499 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
4500 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
4501 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
4502 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
4503 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
4504 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
4505 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
4506 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
4507 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
4508 ssh_config(5) for details.
4509 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
4510 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
4511 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
4512 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
4513 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.
4514 * Darren Tucker:
4515 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
4516 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.

4692 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
4693 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
4694 should probably be sorted by version somehow.

4741 * Point rlogin and rcp alternatives at slogin and scp respectively rather
4742 than ssh (closes: #121103, #151666). Fix alternative removal to match;
4743 previously it was completely wrong anyway.
4744 * Find out whether /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run exists and set the debconf
4745 question's default using that information, rather than using debconf as
4746 a registry. Other solutions may be better in the long run, but this is
4747 at least correct (thanks, Matthew Woodcraft; closes: #84725).
4748 * Stop using pam_lastlog, as it doesn't currently work well as a session
4749 module when privilege separation is enabled; it can usually read
4750 /var/log/lastlog but can't write to it. Instead, just use sshd's
4751 built-in support, already enabled by default (closes: #151297, #169938).
4752 * Use 'ssh-keygen -q' rather than redirecting output to /dev/null.
4753 * Add a "this may take some time" warning when creating host keys on
4754 installation (part of #110094).
4755 * When restarting via the init script, check for sshd_not_to_be_run after
4756 stopping sshd (idea from Tomas Pospisek; closes: #149850).
4757 * Append /usr/sbin:/sbin to the init script's $PATH, just in case of
4758 strangeness (closes: #115138).
4759 * Fix a dpkg-statoverride call to redirect stdout to /dev/null, not
4760 stderr.
4761 * Correct copyright file typo: "orignal" -> "original" (closes: #176490).
4762 * Rebuild with libssl0.9.7 (closes: #176983).
4763 * We're up to policy version 3.5.6. DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS stuff still needs to
4764 be looked at.

4771 * Use getent rather than id to find out whether the sshd user exists
4772 (closes: #150974).
4773 * Remove some duplication from the postinst's ssh-keysign setuid code.
4774 * Replace db_text with db_input throughout debian/config. (db_text has
4775 been a compatibility wrapper since debconf 0.1.5.)
4776 * Warn about PermitUserEnvironment on upgrade (closes: #167895).
4777 * Use 'make install-nokeys', and disable unused debhelper commands,
4778 thereby forward-porting the last pieces of Zack Weinberg's patch
4779 (closes: #68341).
4780 * Move the man page for gnome-ssh-askpass from the ssh package to
4781 ssh-askpass-gnome (closes: #174449).
4782 * Build with -DLOGIN_NO_ENDOPT, since Debian's /bin/login doesn't accept
4783 '--' to terminate the list of options (closes: #171554).
4784 * Add Jonathan Amery's ssh-argv0 script (closes: #111341).
4785 * Update Danish debconf template (thanks, Morten Brix Pedersen;
4786 closes: #174757).
4787 * Document setgid ssh-agent's effect on certain environment variables in
4788 README.Debian (closes: #167974).

4790 README.Debian, and suggest some workarounds (closes: #174662).

4804 * New upstream release.
4805 - Fixes typo in ssh-add usage (closes: #152239).
4806 - Fixes 'PermitRootLogin forced-commands-only' (closes: #166184).
4807 - ~/.ssh/environment and environment= options in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
4808 are deprecated for security reasons and will eventually go away. For
4809 now they can be re-enabled by setting 'PermitUserEnvironment yes' in
4810 sshd_config.
4811 - ssh-agent is installed setgid to prevent ptrace() attacks. The group
4812 actually doesn't matter, as it drops privileges immediately, but to
4813 avoid confusion the postinst creates a new 'ssh' group for it.
4814 * Obsolete patches:
4815 - Solar Designer's privsep+compression patch for Linux 2.2 (see
4816 1:3.3p1-0.0woody1).
4817 - Hostbased auth ssh-keysign backport (see 1:3.4p1-4).
4818
4819 * Remove duplicated phrase in ssh_config(5) (closes: #152404).
4820 * Source the debconf confmodule at the top of the postrm rather than at
4821 the bottom, to avoid making future non-idempotency problems worse (see
4822 #151035).
4823 * Debconf templates:
4824 - Add Polish (thanks, Grzegorz Kusnierz).
4825 - Update French (thanks, Denis Barbier; closes: #132509).
4826 - Update Spanish (thanks, Carlos Valdivia Yagüe; closes: #164716).
4827 * Write a man page for gnome-ssh-askpass, and link it to ssh-askpass.1 if
4828 this is the selected ssh-askpass alternative (closes: #67775).

4837 * Drop ssh-askpass-gnome's priority to optional, per the override file.

4839 * s/dile/idle/ in ssh_config(5) (closes: #118331).
4840 * Note in README.Debian that you need xauth from xbase-clients on the
4841 server for X11 forwarding (closes: #140269).

5513 * get rid of Provides: rsh-server (this will mean that rstartd
5514 will need to change it's depends to deal with #63948, which I'm
5515 reopening) (closes: #66257)
5516 Given that this is also a trivial change, and is a reversal of a
5517 change that was mistakenly made after the freeze, I think this should
5518 also go into frozen.

5525 This is required to allow ssh to be installed when debconf is not

5527 too many).

5588 This breaks Rhosts authentication (which nobody uses) and allows

5601 * Integrated man page addition for PrintLastLog.
5602 This bug was filed on "openssh", and I ended up
5603 creating my own patch for this (closes: #59054)
5604 * Improved error message when ssh_exchange_identification
5605 gets EOF (closes: #58904)
5606 * Fixed typo (your -> you're) in debian/preinst.
5607 * Added else-clauses to config to make this upgradepath possible:
5608 oldssh -> openssh preinst fails due to upgrade_to_openssh=false
5609 -> ssh-nonfree -> openssh. Without these, debconf remembered
5610 the old answer, config didn't force asking it, and preinst always
5611 aborted (closes: #56596, #57782)
5612 * Moved setting upgrade_to_openssh isdefault flag to the place
5613 where preinst would abort. This means no double question to most
5614 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
5615 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
5616 use_old_init_script, as the situation is a bit different, and
5617 less common (closes: #54010, #56224)
5618 * Check for existance of ssh-keygen before attempting to use it in
5619 preinst, added warning for non-existant ssh-keygen in config. This
5620 happens when the old ssh is removed (say, due to ssh-nonfree getting
5621 installed).
