51 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-8.1):
52 - ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-agent(1): Add protection for private keys at rest
53 in RAM against speculation and memory side-channel attacks like
54 Spectre, Meltdown and Rambleed. This release encrypts private keys
55 when they are not in use with a symmetric key that is derived from a
56 relatively large "prekey" consisting of random data (currently 16KB).
57 - ssh(1): Allow %n to be expanded in ProxyCommand strings.
58 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow prepending a list of algorithms to the default
59 set by starting the list with the '^' character, e.g.
60 "HostKeyAlgorithms ^ssh-ed25519".
61 - ssh-keygen(1): Add an experimental lightweight signature and
62 verification ability. Signatures may be made using regular ssh keys
63 held on disk or stored in a ssh-agent and verified against an
64 authorized_keys-like list of allowed keys. Signatures embed a
65 namespace that prevents confusion and attacks between different usage
66 domains (e.g. files vs email).
67 - ssh-keygen(1): Print key comment when extracting public key from a
68 private key.
69 - ssh-keygen(1): Accept the verbose flag when searching for host keys in
70 known hosts (i.e. "ssh-keygen -vF host") to print the matching host's
71 random-art signature too.
72 - All: Support PKCS8 as an optional format for storage of private keys
73 to disk. The OpenSSH native key format remains the default, but PKCS8
74 is a superior format to PEM if interoperability with non-OpenSSH
75 software is required, as it may use a less insecure key derivation
76 function than PEM's.
77 - ssh(1): If a PKCS#11 token returns no keys then try to login and
78 refetch them.
79 - ssh(1): Produce a useful error message if the user's shell is set
80 incorrectly during "match exec" processing.
81 - sftp(1): Allow the maximum uint32 value for the argument passed to -b
82 which allows better error messages from later validation.
83 - ssh-keyscan(1): Include SHA2-variant RSA key algorithms in KEX
84 proposal; allows ssh-keyscan to harvest keys from servers that disable
85 old SHA1 ssh-rsa.
86 - sftp(1): Print explicit "not modified" message if a file was requested
87 for resumed download but was considered already complete.
88 - sftp(1): Fix a typo and make <esc><right> move right to the closest
89 end of a word just like <esc><left> moves left to the closest
90 beginning of a word.
91 - sshd(8): Cap the number of permitopen/permitlisten directives allowed
92 to appear on a single authorized_keys line.
93 - All: Fix a number of memory leaks (one-off or on exit paths).
94 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Check for convtime() refusing to accept times that
95 resolve to LONG_MAX.
96 - ssh(1): Slightly more instructive error message when the user
97 specifies multiple -J options on the command-line (closes: #929669).
98 - ssh-agent(1): Process agent requests for RSA certificate private keys
99 using correct signature algorithm when requested.
100 - sftp(1): Check for user@host when parsing sftp target. This allows
101 user@[1.2.3.4] to work without a path.
102 - sshd(8): Enlarge format buffer size for certificate serial number so
103 the log message can record any 64-bit integer without truncation.
104 - sshd(8): For PermitOpen violations add the remote host and port to be
105 able to more easily ascertain the source of the request. Add the same
106 logging for PermitListen violations which were not previously logged
107 at all.
108 - scp(1), sftp(1): Use the correct POSIX format style for left
109 justification for the transfer progress meter.
110 - sshd(8): When examining a configuration using sshd -T, assume any
111 attribute not provided by -C does not match, which allows it to work
112 when sshd_config contains a Match directive with or without -C.
113 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Downgrade PKCS#11 "provider returned no slots"
114 warning from log level error to debug. This is common when attempting
115 to enumerate keys on smartcard readers with no cards plugged in.
116 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Do not unconditionally log in to PKCS#11
117 tokens. Avoids spurious PIN prompts for keys not selected for
118 authentication in ssh(1) and when listing public keys available in a
119 token using ssh-keygen(1).
120 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix typo that prevented detection of Linux VRF.
121 - sshd(8): In the Linux seccomp-bpf sandbox, allow mprotect(2) with
122 PROT_(READ|WRITE|NONE) only. This syscall is used by some hardened
123 heap allocators.
124 - sshd(8): In the Linux seccomp-bpf sandbox, allow the s390-specific
125 ioctl for ECC hardware support.
126 * Re-enable hardening on hppa, since the corresponding GCC bug is
127 apparently fixed.

180
181 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-8.0, closes:
182 #927792):
183 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), ssh-add(1): Add support for ECDSA keys in
184 PKCS#11 tokens (LP: #1665695).
185 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add experimental quantum-computing resistant key
186 exchange method, based on a combination of Streamlined NTRU Prime
187 4591^761 and X25519.
188 - ssh-keygen(1): Increase the default RSA key size to 3072 bits,
189 following NIST Special Publication 800-57's guidance for a 128-bit
190 equivalent symmetric security level (LP: #1445625).
191 - ssh(1): Allow "PKCS11Provider=none" to override later instances of the
192 PKCS11Provider directive in ssh_config.
193 - sshd(8): Add a log message for situations where a connection is
194 dropped for attempting to run a command but a sshd_config
195 ForceCommand=internal-sftp restriction is in effect.
196 - ssh(1): When prompting whether to record a new host key, accept the
197 key fingerprint as a synonym for "yes". This allows the user to paste
198 a fingerprint obtained out of band at the prompt and have the client
199 do the comparison for you.
200 - ssh-keygen(1): When signing multiple certificates on a single
201 command-line invocation, allow automatically incrementing the
202 certificate serial number.
203 - scp(1), sftp(1): Accept -J option as an alias to ProxyJump on the scp
204 and sftp command-lines.
205 - ssh-agent(1), ssh-pkcs11-helper(8), ssh-add(1): Accept "-v"
206 command-line flags to increase the verbosity of output; pass verbose
207 flags though to subprocesses, such as ssh-pkcs11-helper started from
208 ssh-agent.
209 - ssh-add(1): Add a "-T" option to allowing testing whether keys in an
210 agent are usable by performing a signature and a verification.
211 - sftp-server(8): Add a "lsetstat@openssh.com" protocol extension that
212 replicates the functionality of the existing SSH2_FXP_SETSTAT
213 operation but does not follow symlinks.
214 - sftp(1): Add "-h" flag to chown/chgrp/chmod commands to request they
215 do not follow symlinks.
216 - sshd(8): Expose $SSH_CONNECTION in the PAM environment. This makes
217 the connection 4-tuple available to PAM modules that wish to use it in
218 decision-making.
219 - sshd(8): Add a ssh_config "Match final" predicate. Matches in same
220 pass as "Match canonical" but doesn't require hostname
221 canonicalisation be enabled.
222 - sftp(1): Support a prefix of '@' to suppress echo of sftp batch
223 commands.
224 - ssh-keygen(1): When printing certificate contents using "ssh-keygen
225 -Lf /path/certificate", include the algorithm that the CA used to sign
226 the cert.
227 - sshd(8): Fix authentication failures when sshd_config contains
228 "AuthenticationMethods any" inside a Match block that overrides a more
229 restrictive default.
230 - sshd(8): Avoid sending duplicate keepalives when ClientAliveCount is
231 enabled.
232 - sshd(8): Fix two race conditions related to SIGHUP daemon restart.
233 Remnant file descriptors in recently-forked child processes could
234 block the parent sshd's attempt to listen(2) to the configured
235 addresses. Also, the restarting parent sshd could exit before any
236 child processes that were awaiting their re-execution state had
237 completed reading it, leaving them in a fallback path.
238 - ssh(1): Fix stdout potentially being redirected to /dev/null when
239 ProxyCommand=- was in use.
240 - sshd(8): Avoid sending SIGPIPE to child processes if they attempt to
241 write to stderr after their parent processes have exited.
242 - ssh(1): Fix bad interaction between the ssh_config ConnectTimeout and
243 ConnectionAttempts directives - connection attempts after the first
244 were ignoring the requested timeout (LP: #1798049).
245 - ssh-keyscan(1): Return a non-zero exit status if no keys were found
246 (closes: #374980, LP: #1661745).
247 - scp(1): Sanitize scp filenames to allow UTF-8 characters without
248 terminal control sequences.
249 - sshd(8): Fix confusion between ClientAliveInterval and time-based
250 RekeyLimit that could cause connections to be incorrectly closed.
251 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Correct some bugs in PKCS#11 token PIN handling at
252 initial token login. The attempt to read the PIN could be skipped in
253 some cases, particularly on devices with integrated PIN readers. This
254 would lead to an inability to retrieve keys from these tokens.
255 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support keys on PKCS#11 tokens that set the
256 CKA_ALWAYS_AUTHENTICATE flag by requring a fresh login after the
257 C_SignInit operation.
258 - ssh(1): Improve documentation for ProxyJump/-J, clarifying that local
259 configuration does not apply to jump hosts.
260 - ssh-keygen(1): Clarify manual - ssh-keygen -e only writes public keys,
261 not private.
262 - ssh(1), sshd(8): be more strict in processing protocol banners,
263 allowing \r characters only immediately before \n.
264 - Various: fix a number of memory leaks.
265 - scp(1), sftp(1): fix calculation of initial bandwidth limits. Account
266 for bytes written before the timer starts and adjust the schedule on
267 which recalculations are performed. Avoids an initial burst of
268 traffic and yields more accurate bandwidth limits.
269 - sshd(8): Only consider the ext-info-c extension during the initial key
270 eschange. It shouldn't be sent in subsequent ones, but if it is
271 present we should ignore it. This prevents sshd from sending a
272 SSH_MSG_EXT_INFO for REKEX for these buggy clients.
273 - ssh-keygen(1): Clarify manual that ssh-keygen -F (find host in
274 authorized_keys) and -R (remove host from authorized_keys) options may
275 accept either a bare hostname or a [hostname]:port combo.
276 - ssh(1): Don't attempt to connect to empty SSH_AUTH_SOCK.
277 - sshd(8): Silence error messages when sshd fails to load some of the
278 default host keys. Failure to load an explicitly-configured hostkey
279 is still an error, and failure to load any host key is still fatal.
280 - ssh(1): Redirect stderr of ProxyCommands to /dev/null when ssh is
281 started with ControlPersist; prevents random ProxyCommand output from
282 interfering with session output.
283 - ssh(1): The ssh client was keeping a redundant ssh-agent socket
284 (leftover from authentication) around for the life of the connection.
285 - sshd(8): Fix bug in HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
286 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options. If only RSA-SHA2 signature types were
287 specified, then authentication would always fail for RSA keys as the
288 monitor checks only the base key (not the signature algorithm) type
289 against *AcceptedKeyTypes.
290 - ssh(1): Request correct signature types from ssh-agent when
291 certificate keys and RSA-SHA2 signatures are in use.
292 - sshd(8): Don't set $MAIL if UsePAM=yes as PAM typically specifies the
293 user environment if it's enabled (closes: #189920, #532754).
294 * Mostly resynced GSSAPI key exchange patch with Fedora. Major changes:
295 - Support selection of GSSAPI key exchange algorithms.
296 - Support GSSAPI key exchange methods with DH and SHA2.
297 - Support GSSAPI key exchange using ECDH and SHA2.
298 - Make sure the Kerberos tickets are cleaned up with the user context.
299 - Enable gssapi-keyex authentication without gssapi-with-mic.
300 - Allow querying for GSSAPI key exchange algorithms from ssh (-Q
301 kex-gss).
302 * Apply upstream patch to fix the utimensat regression tests when not
303 using the compatibility implementation.

409 names from getservbyname(3) (typically /etc/services; closes:
410 #177406).
411 - ssh(1): allow the IdentityAgent configuration directive to accept
412 environment variable names. This supports the use of multiple agent
413 sockets without needing to use fixed paths.
414 - sshd(8): support signalling sessions via the SSH protocol. A limited
415 subset of signals is supported and only for login or command sessions
416 (i.e. not subsystems) that were not subject to a forced command via
417 authorized_keys or sshd_config.
418 - ssh(1): support "ssh -Q sig" to list supported signature options.
419 Also "ssh -Q help" to show the full set of supported queries.
420 - ssh(1), sshd(8): add a CASignatureAlgorithms option for the client and
421 server configs to allow control over which signature formats are
422 allowed for CAs to sign certificates. For example, this allows
423 banning CAs that sign certificates using the RSA-SHA1 signature
424 algorithm.
425 - sshd(8), ssh-keygen(1): allow key revocation lists (KRLs) to revoke
426 keys specified by SHA256 hash.
427 - ssh-keygen(1): allow creation of key revocation lists directly from
428 base64-encoded SHA256 fingerprints. This supports revoking keys using
429 only the information contained in sshd(8) authentication log messages.
430 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): avoid spurious "invalid format" errors when
431 attempting to load PEM private keys while using an incorrect
432 passphrase.
433 - sshd(8): when a channel closed message is received from a client,
434 close the stderr file descriptor at the same time stdout is closed.
435 This avoids stuck processes if they were waiting for stderr to close
436 and were insensitive to stdin/out closing (closes: #844494).
437 - ssh(1): allow ForwardX11Timeout=0 to disable the untrusted X11
438 forwarding timeout and support X11 forwarding indefinitely.
439 Previously the behaviour of ForwardX11Timeout=0 was undefined.
440 - sshd(8): when compiled with GSSAPI support, cache supported method
441 OIDs regardless of whether GSSAPI authentication is enabled in the
442 main section of sshd_config. This avoids sandbox violations if GSSAPI
443 authentication was later enabled in a Match block.
444 - sshd(8): do not fail closed when configured with a text key revocation
445 list that contains a too-short key.
446 - ssh(1): treat connections with ProxyJump specified the same as ones
447 with a ProxyCommand set with regards to hostname canonicalisation
448 (i.e. don't try to canonicalise the hostname unless
449 CanonicalizeHostname is set to 'always').
450 - ssh(1): fix regression in OpenSSH 7.8 that could prevent public-key
451 authentication using certificates hosted in a ssh-agent(1) or against
452 sshd(8) from OpenSSH <7.8 (LP: #1790963).
453 - All: support building against the openssl-1.1 API (releases 1.1.0g and
454 later). The openssl-1.0 API will remain supported at least until
455 OpenSSL terminates security patch support for that API version
456 (closes: #828475).
457 - sshd(8): allow the futex(2) syscall in the Linux seccomp sandbox;
458 apparently required by some glibc/OpenSSL combinations.
459 * Remove dh_builddeb override to use xz compression; this has been the
460 default since dpkg 1.17.0.
461 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/default.mk.
462 * Remove /etc/network/if-up.d/openssh-server, as it causes more problems
463 than it solves (thanks, Christian Ehrhardt, Andreas Hasenack, and David
464 Britton; closes: #789532, LP: #1037738, #1674330, #1718227). Add an
465 "if-up hook removed" section to README.Debian documenting the corner
466 case that may need configuration adjustments.

470openssh (1:7.8p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
471
472 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.8, closes:
473 #907534):
474 - ssh-keygen(1): Write OpenSSH format private keys by default instead of
475 using OpenSSL's PEM format (closes: #905407). The OpenSSH format,
476 supported in OpenSSH releases since 2014 and described in the
477 PROTOCOL.key file in the source distribution, offers substantially
478 better protection against offline password guessing and supports key
479 comments in private keys. If necessary, it is possible to write old
480 PEM-style keys by adding "-m PEM" to ssh-keygen's arguments when
481 generating or updating a key.
482 - sshd(8): Remove internal support for S/Key multiple factor
483 authentication. S/Key may still be used via PAM or BSD auth.
484 - ssh(1): Remove vestigial support for running ssh(1) as setuid. This
485 used to be required for hostbased authentication and the (long gone)
486 rhosts-style authentication, but has not been necessary for a long
487 time. Attempting to execute ssh as a setuid binary, or with uid !=
488 effective uid will now yield a fatal error at runtime.
489 - sshd(8): The semantics of PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and the similar
490 HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes options have changed. These now specify
491 signature algorithms that are accepted for their respective
492 authentication mechanism, where previously they specified accepted key
493 types. This distinction matters when using the RSA/SHA2 signature
494 algorithms "rsa-sha2-256", "rsa-sha2-512" and their certificate
495 counterparts. Configurations that override these options but omit
496 these algorithm names may cause unexpected authentication failures (no
497 action is required for configurations that accept the default for
498 these options).
499 - sshd(8): The precedence of session environment variables has changed.
500 ~/.ssh/environment and environment="..." options in authorized_keys
501 files can no longer override SSH_* variables set implicitly by sshd.
502 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): The default IPQoS used by ssh/sshd has changed. They
503 will now use DSCP AF21 for interactive traffic and CS1 for bulk. For
504 a detailed rationale, please see the commit message:
505 https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/src/usr.bin/ssh/readconf.c#rev1.284
506 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Add new signature algorithms "rsa-sha2-256-cert-
507 v01@openssh.com" and "rsa-sha2-512-cert-v01@openssh.com" to explicitly
508 force use of RSA/SHA2 signatures in authentication.
509 - sshd(8): Extend the PermitUserEnvironment option to accept a whitelist
510 of environment variable names in addition to global "yes" or "no"
511 settings.
512 - sshd(8): Add a PermitListen directive to sshd_config(5) and a
513 corresponding permitlisten= authorized_keys option that control which
514 listen addresses and port numbers may be used by remote forwarding
515 (ssh -R ...).
516 - sshd(8): Add some countermeasures against timing attacks used for
517 account validation/enumeration. sshd will enforce a minimum time or
518 each failed authentication attempt consisting of a global 5ms minimum
519 plus an additional per-user 0-4ms delay derived from a host secret.
520 - sshd(8): Add a SetEnv directive to allow an administrator to
521 explicitly specify environment variables in sshd_config. Variables
522 set by SetEnv override the default and client-specified environment.
523 - ssh(1): Add a SetEnv directive to request that the server sets an
524 environment variable in the session. Similar to the existing SendEnv
525 option, these variables are set subject to server configuration.
526 - ssh(1): Allow "SendEnv -PATTERN" to clear environment variables
527 previously marked for sending to the server (closes: #573316).
528 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Make UID available as a %-expansion everywhere that
529 the username is available currently.
530 - ssh(1): Allow setting ProxyJump=none to disable ProxyJump
531 functionality.
532 - sshd(8): Avoid observable differences in request parsing that could be
533 used to determine whether a target user is valid.
534 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix some memory leaks.
535 - ssh(1): Fix a pwent clobber (introduced in openssh-7.7) that could
536 occur during key loading, manifesting as crash on some platforms.
537 - sshd_config(5): Clarify documentation for AuthenticationMethods
538 option.
539 - ssh(1): Ensure that the public key algorithm sent in a public key
540 SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_REQUEST matches the content of the signature blob.
541 Previously, these could be inconsistent when a legacy or non-OpenSSH
542 ssh-agent returned a RSA/SHA1 signature when asked to make a RSA/SHA2
543 signature.
544 - sshd(8): Fix failures to read authorized_keys caused by faulty
545 supplemental group caching.
546 - scp(1): Apply umask to directories, fixing potential mkdir/chmod race
547 when copying directory trees.
548 - ssh-keygen(1): Return correct exit code when searching for and hashing
549 known_hosts entries in a single operation.
550 - ssh(1): Prefer the ssh binary pointed to via argv[0] to $PATH when
551 re-executing ssh for ProxyJump.
552 - sshd(8): Do not ban PTY allocation when a sshd session is restricted
553 because the user password is expired as it breaks password change
554 dialog.
555 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix error reporting from select() failures.
556 - ssh(1): Improve documentation for -w (tunnel) flag, emphasising that
557 -w implicitly sets Tunnel=point-to-point.
558 - ssh-agent(1): Implement EMFILE mitigation for ssh-agent. ssh-agent
559 will no longer spin when its file descriptor limit is exceeded.
560 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Disable SSH2_MSG_DEBUG messages for Twisted Conch
561 clients. Twisted Conch versions that lack a version number in their
562 identification strings will mishandle these messages when running on
563 Python 2.x (https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9422).
564 - sftp(1): Notify user immediately when underlying ssh process dies
565 expectedly.
566 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix tunnel forwarding; regression in 7.7 release.
567 - ssh-agent(1): Don't kill ssh-agent's listening socket entirely if it
568 fails to accept(2) a connection.
569 - ssh(1): Add some missing options in the configuration dump output (ssh
570 -G).
571 - sshd(8): Expose details of completed authentication to PAM auth
572 modules via SSH_AUTH_INFO_0 in the PAM environment.
573 * Switch debian/watch to HTTPS.
574 * Temporarily work around https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9515 in
575 regression tests.

610openssh (1:7.7p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
611
612 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.7):
613 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Drop compatibility support for some very old SSH
614 implementations, including ssh.com <=2.* and OpenSSH <= 3.*. These
615 versions were all released in or before 2001 and predate the final SSH
616 RFCs. The support in question isn't necessary for RFC-compliant SSH
617 implementations.
618 - Add experimental support for PQC XMSS keys (Extended Hash-Based
619 Signatures).
620 - sshd(8): Add an "rdomain" criterion for the sshd_config Match keyword
621 to allow conditional configuration that depends on which routing
622 domain a connection was received on.
623 - sshd_config(5): Add an optional rdomain qualifier to the ListenAddress
624 directive to allow listening on different routing domains.
625 - sshd(8): Add "expiry-time" option for authorized_keys files to allow
626 for expiring keys.
627 - ssh(1): Add a BindInterface option to allow binding the outgoing
628 connection to an interface's address (basically a more usable
629 BindAddress; closes: #289592).
630 - ssh(1): Expose device allocated for tun/tap forwarding via a new %T
631 expansion for LocalCommand. This allows LocalCommand to be used to
632 prepare the interface.
633 - sshd(8): Expose the device allocated for tun/tap forwarding via a new
634 SSH_TUNNEL environment variable. This allows automatic setup of the
635 interface and surrounding network configuration automatically on the
636 server.
637 - ssh(1)/scp(1)/sftp(1): Add URI support to ssh, sftp and scp, e.g.
638 ssh://user@host or sftp://user@host/path. Additional connection
639 parameters described in draft-ietf-secsh-scp-sftp-ssh-uri-04 are not
640 implemented since the ssh fingerprint format in the draft uses the
641 deprecated MD5 hash with no way to specify any other algorithm.
642 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow certificate validity intervals that specify only
643 a start or stop time (instead of both or neither).
644 - sftp(1): Allow "cd" and "lcd" commands with no explicit path argument.
645 lcd will change to the local user's home directory as usual. cd will
646 change to the starting directory for session (because the protocol
647 offers no way to obtain the remote user's home directory).
648 - sshd(8): When doing a config test with sshd -T, only require the
649 attributes that are actually used in Match criteria rather than (an
650 incomplete list of) all criteria.
651 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): More strictly check signature types during key
652 exchange against what was negotiated. Prevents downgrade of RSA
653 signatures made with SHA-256/512 to SHA-1.
654 - sshd(8): Fix support for client that advertise a protocol version of
655 "1.99" (indicating that they are prepared to accept both SSHv1 and
656 SSHv2). This was broken in OpenSSH 7.6 during the removal of SSHv1
657 support.
658 - ssh(1): Warn when the agent returns a ssh-rsa (SHA1) signature when a
659 rsa-sha2-256/512 signature was requested. This condition is possible
660 when an old or non-OpenSSH agent is in use.
661 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression introduced in 7.6 that caused ssh-agent
662 to fatally exit if presented an invalid signature request message.
663 - sshd_config(5): Accept yes/no flag options case-insensitively, as has
664 been the case in ssh_config(5) for a long time (LP: #1656557).
665 - ssh(1): Improve error reporting for failures during connection. Under
666 some circumstances misleading errors were being shown.
667 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add -D option to allow printing of results directly in
668 SSHFP format.
669 - ssh(1): Compatibility fix for some servers that erroneously drop the
670 connection when the IUTF8 (RFC8160) option is sent.
671 - scp(1): Disable RemoteCommand and RequestTTY in the ssh session
672 started by scp (sftp was already doing this).
673 - ssh-keygen(1): Refuse to create a certificate with an unusable number
674 of principals.
675 - ssh-keygen(1): Fatally exit if ssh-keygen is unable to write all the
676 public key during key generation. Previously it would silently ignore
677 errors writing the comment and terminating newline.
678 - ssh(1): Do not modify hostname arguments that are addresses by
679 automatically forcing them to lower-case. Instead canonicalise them
680 jo resolve ambiguities (e.g. ::0001 => ::1) before they are matched
681 against known_hosts.
682 - ssh(1): Don't accept junk after "yes" or "no" responses to hostkey
683 prompts.
684 - sftp(1): Have sftp print a warning about shell cleanliness when
685 decoding the first packet fails, which is usually caused by shells
686 polluting stdout of non-interactive startups.
687 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Switch timers in packet code from using wall-clock
688 time to monotonic time, allowing the packet layer to better function
689 over a clock step and avoiding possible integer overflows during
690 steps.
691 - sshd(8): Correctly detect MIPS ABI in use at configure time. Fixes
692 sandbox violations on some environments.
693 - Build and link with "retpoline" flags when available to mitigate the
694 "branch target injection" style (variant 2) of the Spectre
695 branch-prediction vulnerability.

743
744 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.6):
745 - CVE-2017-15906: sftp-server(8): In read-only mode, sftp-server was
746 incorrectly permitting creation of zero-length files. Reported by
747 Michal Zalewski.
748 - ssh(1): Delete SSH protocol version 1 support, associated
749 configuration options and documentation (LP: #1584321).
750 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove support for the hmac-ripemd160 MAC.
751 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove support for the arcfour, blowfish and CAST
752 ciphers.
753 - Refuse RSA keys <1024 bits in length and improve reporting for keys
754 that do not meet this requirement.
755 - ssh(1): Do not offer CBC ciphers by default.
756 - ssh(1): Add RemoteCommand option to specify a command in the ssh
757 config file instead of giving it on the client's command line. This
758 allows the configuration file to specify the command that will be
759 executed on the remote host.
760 - sshd(8): Add ExposeAuthInfo option that enables writing details of the
761 authentication methods used (including public keys where applicable)
762 to a file that is exposed via a $SSH_USER_AUTH environment variable in
763 the subsequent session.
764 - ssh(1): Add support for reverse dynamic forwarding. In this mode, ssh
765 will act as a SOCKS4/5 proxy and forward connections to destinations
766 requested by the remote SOCKS client. This mode is requested using
767 extended syntax for the -R and RemoteForward options and, because it
768 is implemented solely at the client, does not require the server be
769 updated to be supported.
770 - sshd(8): Allow LogLevel directive in sshd_config Match blocks.
771 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow inclusion of arbitrary string or flag certificate
772 extensions and critical options.
773 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to use a key held in ssh-agent as a CA
774 when signing certificates.
775 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Allow IPQoS=none in ssh/sshd to not set an explicit
776 ToS/DSCP value and just use the operating system default.
777 - ssh-add(1): Add -q option to make ssh-add quiet on success.
778 - ssh(1): Expand the StrictHostKeyChecking option with two new settings.
779 The first "accept-new" will automatically accept hitherto-unseen keys
780 but will refuse connections for changed or invalid hostkeys. This is
781 a safer subset of the current behaviour of StrictHostKeyChecking=no.
782 The second setting "off", is a synonym for the current behaviour of
783 StrictHostKeyChecking=no: accept new host keys, and continue
784 connection for hosts with incorrect hostkeys. A future release will
785 change the meaning of StrictHostKeyChecking=no to the behaviour of
786 "accept-new".
787 - ssh(1): Add SyslogFacility option to ssh(1) matching the equivalent
788 option in sshd(8).
789 - ssh(1): Use HostKeyAlias if specified instead of hostname for matching
790 host certificate principal names.
791 - sftp(1): Implement sorting for globbed ls.
792 - ssh(1): Add a user@host prefix to client's "Permission denied"
793 messages, useful in particular when using "stacked" connections (e.g.
794 ssh -J) where it's not clear which host is denying.
795 - ssh(1): Accept unknown EXT_INFO extension values that contain \0
796 characters. These are legal, but would previously cause fatal
797 connection errors if received.
798 - sftp(1): Print '?' instead of incorrect link count (that the protocol
799 doesn't provide) for remote listings.
800 - ssh(1): Return failure rather than fatal() for more cases during
801 session multiplexing negotiations. Causes the session to fall back to
802 a non-mux connection if they occur.
803 - ssh(1): Mention that the server may send debug messages to explain
804 public key authentication problems under some circumstances.
805 - Translate OpenSSL error codes to better report incorrect passphrase
806 errors when loading private keys.
807 - sshd(8): Adjust compatibility patterns for WinSCP to correctly
808 identify versions that implement only the legacy DH group exchange
809 scheme (closes: #877800).
810 - ssh(1): Print the "Killed by signal 1" message only at LogLevel
811 verbose so that it is not shown at the default level; prevents it from
812 appearing during ssh -J and equivalent ProxyCommand configs.
813 - ssh-keygen(1): When generating all hostkeys (ssh-keygen -A), clobber
814 existing keys if they exist but are zero length. Zero-length keys
815 could previously be made if ssh-keygen failed or was interrupted part
816 way through generating them.
817 - ssh-keyscan(1): Avoid double-close() on file descriptors.
818 - sshd(8): Avoid reliance on shared use of pointers shared between
819 monitor and child sshd processes.
820 - sshd_config(8): Document available AuthenticationMethods.
821 - ssh(1): Avoid truncation in some login prompts.
822 - ssh(1): Make "--" before the hostname terminate argument processing
823 after the hostname too (closes: #873201).
824 - ssh-keygen(1): Switch from aes256-cbc to aes256-ctr for encrypting
825 new-style private keys.
826 - ssh(1): Warn and do not attempt to use keys when the public and
827 private halves do not match.
828 - sftp(1): Don't print verbose error message when ssh disconnects from
829 under sftp.
830 - sshd(8): Fix keepalive scheduling problem: prevent activity on a
831 forwarded port from preventing the keepalive from being sent.
832 - sshd(8): When started without root privileges, don't require the
833 privilege separation user or path to exist.
834 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Correctness fix for channels implementation: accept
835 channel IDs greater than 0x7FFFFFFF.
836 - sshd(8): Expose list of completed authentication methods to PAM via
837 the SSH_AUTH_INFO_0 PAM environment variable.
838 - ssh(1)/sshd(8): Fix several problems in the tun/tap forwarding code,
839 mostly to do with host/network byte order confusion.
840 - sshd(8): Avoid Linux seccomp violations on ppc64le over the socketcall
841 syscall.

947
948 * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.5):
949 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle
950 countermeasures that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH
951 7.3 to proceed. Note that the OpenSSH client disables CBC ciphers by
952 default, sshd offers them as lowest-preference options and will remove
953 them by default entirely in the next release.
954 - This release deprecates the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation option,
955 thereby making privilege separation mandatory (closes: #407754).
956 - The format of several log messages emitted by the packet code has
957 changed to include additional information about the user and their
958 authentication state. Software that monitors ssh/sshd logs may need
959 to account for these changes.
960 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
961 algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
962 - sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start messages
963 are sent out of sequence.
964 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in configuration
965 files.
966 - sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the server-sig-algs
967 extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were not being correctly
968 advertised.
969 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
970 known_hosts processing.
971 - ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
972 file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
973 - ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option, accept
974 RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype. Previously,
975 ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-* methods were
976 enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa method.
977 - ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file lines.
978 - Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat and
979 FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor leaks in
980 error paths.
981 - ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
982 "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
983 - ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
984 line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat square
985 bracket characters specially.
986 - Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol 1
987 support from the server, including the server banner string being
988 incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing error
989 messages from ssh-keyscan, and a segfault in sshd if protocol v.1 was
990 enabled for the client and sshd_config contained references to legacy
991 keys.
992 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
993 - sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server returns
994 zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
995 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
996 encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
997 - ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
998 printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
999 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
1000 feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
1001 - sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
1002 AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
1003 matched early.
1004 - ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
1005 cancellation.
1006 - ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files can't
1007 be opened.
1008 - sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token in
1009 AuthorizedKeysCommand.
1010 - sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM.
1011 - ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and common
1012 32-bit compatibility library directories.
1013 - sftp-client(1): Fix non-exploitable integer overflow in SSH2_FXP_NAME
1014 response handling.
1015 - ssh-agent(1): Fix regression in 7.4 of deleting PKCS#11-hosted keys.
1016 It was not possible to delete them except by specifying their full
1017 physical path.
1018 - sshd(8): Avoid sandbox errors for Linux S390 systems using an ICA
1019 crypto coprocessor.
1020 - sshd(8): Fix non-exploitable weakness in seccomp-bpf sandbox arg
1021 inspection.
1022 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sftp(1): Fix output truncation for various that
1023 contain non-printable characters where the codeset in use is ASCII.

1122openssh (1:7.4p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
1123
1124 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
1125 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
1126 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
1127 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
1128 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
1129 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
1130 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
1131 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
1132 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
1133 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
1134 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
1135 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
1136 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
1137 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
1138 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
1139 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
1140 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
1141 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
1142 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
1143 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
1144 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
1145 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
1146 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
1147 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
1148 (closes: #848714).
1149 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
1150 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
1151 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
1152 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
1153 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
1154 years) (closes: #848715).
1155 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
1156 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
1157 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
1158 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
1159 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
1160 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
1161 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
1162 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
1163 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
1164 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
1165 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
1166 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
1167 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
1168 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
1169 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
1170 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
1171 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
1172 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
1173 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
1174 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
1175 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
1176 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
1177 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
1178 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
1179 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
1180 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
1181 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
1182 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
1183 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
1184 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
1185 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
1186 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
1187 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
1188 way of restricting an account.
1189 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
1190 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
1191 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
1192 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
1193 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
1194 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
1195 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
1196 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
1197 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
1198 configuration error.
1199 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
1200 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
1201 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
1202 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
1203 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
1204 being offered.
1205 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
1206 that have no corresponding bare public key.
1207 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
1208 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
1209 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
1210 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
1211 messages.
1212 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
1213 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
1214 - sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before suspending
1215 sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode correctly if
1216 suspended during a password prompt.
1217 - ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
1218 prompt (LP: #1646813).
1219 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-info
1220 messages.
1221 - sshd(8): Fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-sequence
1222 NEWKEYS message.
1223 - sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in the
1224 server-sig-algs extension.
1225 - sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
1226 - sshd(8): More strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
1227 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
1228 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
1229 configuration.
1230 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
1231 configuration examples.
1232 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
1233 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that
1234 locale's unique handling of the letters 'i' and 'I' (LP: #1638338).
1235 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
1236 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
1237 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
1238 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
1239 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
1240 generated on new installations.
1241 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
1242 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
1243 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
1244 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
1245 #419574, #848089):
1246 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
1247 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
1248 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
1249 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
1250 I've missed some.
1251 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
1252 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
1253 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
1254 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
1255 than "yes", per upstream.
1256 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
1257 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to

1303
1304 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
1305 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
1306 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
1307 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
1308 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
1309 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
1310 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
1311 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
1312 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
1313 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
1314 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
1315 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
1316 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
1317 though no such leakage has been observed.
1318 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
1319 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
1320 "jump hosts".
1321 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
1322 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.
1323 - ssh(1): Allow ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings to be
1324 optionally overridden when using ssh -W.
1325 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Implement support for the IUTF8 terminal mode as per
1326 draft-sgtatham-secsh-iutf8-00 (closes: #337041, LP: #394570).
1327 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for additional fixed Diffie-Hellman 2K,
1328 4K and 8K groups from draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2-03.
1329 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sshd(8): Support SHA256 and SHA512 RSA
1330 signatures in certificates.
1331 - ssh(1): Add an Include directive for ssh_config(5) files (closes:
1332 #536031).
1333 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
1334 from the server.
1335 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
1336 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
1337 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
1338 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
1339 multiple authentication.
1340 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
1341 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
1342 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
1343 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
1344 are enabled.
1345 - sshd(8): Remove fallback from moduli to obsolete "primes" file that
1346 was deprecated in 2001 (LP: #1528251).
1347 - sshd_config(5): Correct description of UseDNS: it affects ssh hostname
1348 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
1349 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
1350 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
1351 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf
1352 sandbox.
1353 - scp(1): Respect the local user's LC_CTYPE locale (closes: #396295).
1354 - Take character display widths into account for the progressmeter
1355 (closes: #407088).

1459 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
1460 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
1461 default in ssh:
1462 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
1463 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
1464 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
1465 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
1466 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
1467 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
1468 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
1469 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
1470 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
1471 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
1472 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
1473 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
1474 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
1475 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
1476 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
1477 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
1478 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
1479 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
1480 'confirm').
1481 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
1482 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
1483 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
1484 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
1485 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
1486 we might implement in the future.
1487 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
1488 certificates.
1489 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
1490 supported formats (closes: #811125).
1491 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
1492 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
1493 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
1494 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
1495 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
1496 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
1497 default.
1498 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
1499 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
1500 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
1501 certificates instead of plain keys.
1502 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
1503 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
1504 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
1505 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate
1506 recursive uploads (regression in OpenSSH 6.8; LP: #1553378).
1507 * Use HTTPS for Vcs-* URLs, and link to cgit rather than gitweb.
1508 * Restore slogin symlinks for compatibility, although they were removed
1509 upstream.

1597 instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html

1599 default at run-time. These may be re-enabled using the instructions
1600 at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
1601 - Support for the legacy v00 cert format has been removed.
1602 - The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has changed
1603 from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
1604 - PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
1605 interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
1606 hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
1607 keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those were
1608 enabled).
1609 - ssh_config(5): Add PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes option to control which
1610 public key types are available for user authentication.
1611 - sshd_config(5): Add HostKeyAlgorithms option to control which public
1612 key types are offered for host authentications.
1613 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Extend Ciphers, MACs, KexAlgorithms,
1614 HostKeyAlgorithms, PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and HostbasedKeyTypes
1615 options to allow appending to the default set of algorithms instead of
1616 replacing it. Options may now be prefixed with a '+' to append to the
1617 default, e.g. "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss".
1618 - sshd_config(5): PermitRootLogin now accepts an argument of
1619 'prohibit-password' as a less-ambiguous synonym of 'without-
1620 password'.
1621 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatability workarounds for Cisco and more

1677
1678 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
1679 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
1680 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
1681 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
1682 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
1683 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
1684 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
1685 from hex to base64.
1686 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
1687 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
1688 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
1689 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
1690 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
1691 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
1692 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
1693 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
1694 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
1695 option (default off).
1696 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
1697 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
1698 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
1699 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
1700 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
1701 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
1702 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
1703 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
1704 authentication.
1705 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
1706 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
1707 decryption.
1708 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
1709 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
1710 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
1711 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
1712 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
1713 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
1714 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
1715 all.
1716 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
1717 against MaxAuthTries.
1718 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
1719 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
1720 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
1721 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
1722 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
1723 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
1724 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
1725 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
1726 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
1727 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against
1728 servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol (closes: #241119).
1729 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were
1730 being lost as comment fields (closes: #787776).
1731 - ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse
1732 phase to be applied (they were being ignored; closes: #774369).
1733 - ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the
1734 second pass through the config files always run when host name
1735 canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes)
1736 - ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection
1737 multiplexing is in use.
1738 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH
1739 formats.
1740 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use.
1741 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
1742 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
1743 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
1744 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
1745 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
1746 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
1747 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
1748 by Jann Horn.
1749 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
1750 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
1751 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
1752 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
1753 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
1754 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
1755 (closes: #740494).
1756 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
1757 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
1758 file.
1759 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
1760 devices.
1761 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
1762 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
1763 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
1764 enabling debug mode.
1765 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
1766 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
1767 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
1768 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
1769 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
1770 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).
1771 - ssh(1): Fix out-of-bound read in EscapeChar configuration option
1772 parsing.
1773 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
1774 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
1775 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
1776 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from
1777 the list of active forwards.
1778 - sshd(8): Make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options
1779 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
1780 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
1781 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
1782 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
1783 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
1784 options to appear in any order.
1785 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
1786 and ForceCommand.
1787 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
1788 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
1789 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
1790 forwarding requested.
1791 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
1792 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
1793 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
1794 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
1795 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
1796 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
1797 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
1798 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
1799 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
1800 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
1801 host key fingerprints.
1802 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
1803 language consistent.
1804 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
1805 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
1806 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
1807 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
1808 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
1809 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
1810 to fix security issues:
1811 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
1812 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
1813 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
1814 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
1815 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
1816 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
1817 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
1818 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
1819 Moritz Jodeit.
1820 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
1821 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
1822 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
1823 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
1824 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
1825 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
1826 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
1827 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
1828 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
1829 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
1830 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
1831 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
1832 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
1833 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
1834 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
1835 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

1892
1893 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
1894 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
1895 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
1896 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
1897 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
1898 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
1899 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
1900 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
1901 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
1902 key types.
1903 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
1904 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
1905 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
1906 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
1907 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
1908 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
1909 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
1910 option.
1911 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
1912 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
1913 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
1914 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
1915 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
1916 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
1917 authentication success / failure messages.
1918 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
1919 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
1920 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
1921 #734553).
1922 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
1923 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
1924 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
1925 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
1926 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
1927 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
1928 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
1929 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
1930 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
1931 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
1932 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
1933 field.
1934 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
1935 simply a new enough dpkg.
1936 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
1937 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
1938 field.
1939 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
1940 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

2088 Urpala.
2089 * Stop claiming that "Protocol 2" is a Debian-specific default; this has
2090 been upstream's default since 5.4p1.
2091 * Avoid stdout noise from which(1) on purge of openssh-client.
2092 * Fix sysvinit->systemd transition code to cope with still-running
2093 sysvinit jobs being considered active by systemd (thanks, Uoti Urpala
2094 and Michael Biebl).
2095 * Bump guard version for sysvinit->systemd transition to 1:6.5p1-3; we may
2096 have got it wrong before, and it's fairly harmless to repeat it.
2097 * Remove tests for whether /dev/null is a character device from the
2098 Upstart job and the systemd service files; it's there to avoid a
2099 confusing failure mode in daemon(), but with modern init systems we use
2100 the -D option to suppress daemonisation anyway.
2101 * Refer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 in debian/copyright (for the
2102 Debian patch) rather than plain GPL.
2103 * Drop some very old Conflicts and Replaces (ssh (<< 1:3.8.1p1-9),
2104 rsh-client (<< 0.16.1-1), ssh-krb5 (<< 1:4.3p2-7), ssh-nonfree (<< 2),
2105 and openssh-client (<< 1:3.8.1p1-11)). These all relate to pre-etch
2106 versions, for which we no longer have maintainer script code, and per
2107 policy they would have to become Breaks nowadays anyway.
2108 * Policy version 3.9.5.

2124
2125 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.5,
2126 LP: #1275068):
2127 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
2128 set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This allows
2129 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
2130 to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking
2131 host certificate names (closes: #115286).
2132 * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
2133 * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
2134 with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
2135 * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
2136 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
2137 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
2138 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See
2139 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full
2140 reasoning.
2141 * Add OpenPGP signature checking configuration to watch file (thanks,
2142 Daniel Kahn Gillmor; closes: #732441).
2143 * Add the pam_keyinit session module, to create a new session keyring on
2144 login (closes: #734816).
2145 * Incorporate default path changes from shadow 1:4.0.18.1-8, removing
2146 /usr/bin/X11 (closes: #644521).
2147 * Generate ED25519 host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish
2148 to add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
2149 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run
2150 'ssh-keygen -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key -N "" -t ed25519'.
2151 * Drop long-obsolete "SSH now uses protocol 2 by default" section from
2152 README.Debian.
2153 * Add systemd support (thanks, Sven Joachim; closes: #676830).

2169 + sftp(1): add support for resuming partial downloads using the
2170 "reget" command and on the sftp commandline or on the "get"
2171 commandline using the "-a" (append) option (closes: #158590).
2172 + ssh(1): add an "IgnoreUnknown" configuration option to selectively
2173 suppress errors arising from unknown configuration directives
2174 (closes: #436052).
2175 + sftp(1): update progressmeter when data is acknowledged, not when
2176 it's sent (partially addresses #708372).
2177 + ssh(1): do not fatally exit when attempting to cleanup multiplexing-
2178 created channels that are incompletely opened (closes: #651357).
2179 - 6.4/6.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.4):
2180 + CVE-2013-4548: sshd(8): fix a memory corruption problem triggered
2181 during rekeying when an AES-GCM cipher is selected (closes:
2182 #729029). Full details of the vulnerability are available at:
2183 http://www.openssh.com/txt/gcmrekey.adv
2184 * When running under Upstart, only consider the daemon started once it is
2185 ready to accept connections (by raising SIGSTOP at that point and using
2186 "expect stop").

2227 near the end of the postinst, so it shouldn't result in any appreciable
2228 extra window where sshd is not running during upgrade.

2233
2234 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
2235 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
2236 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
2237 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
2238 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
2239 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
2240 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
2241 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
2242 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
2243 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
2244 the packaging.
2245 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
2246 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
2247 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).
2248 * Remove support for upgrading directly from ssh-nonfree.
2249 * Remove lots of maintainer script support for direct upgrades from
2250 pre-etch (three releases before current stable).
2251 * Add #DEBHELPER# tokens to openssh-client.postinst and
2252 openssh-server.postinst.
2253 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
2254 via dh_installdeb.
2255 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
2256 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
2257 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
2258 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
2259 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
2260 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
2261 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
2262 chroot.
2263 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
2264 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
2265 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
2266 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.
2267 * This removes the last of our uses of debconf (closes: #221531).
2268 * Use the pam_loginuid session module (thanks, Laurent Bigonville; closes:
2269 #677440, LP: #1067779).
2270 * Bracket our session stack with calls to pam_selinux close/open (thanks,
2271 Laurent Bigonville; closes: #679458).

2442 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.9).
2443 - Introduce sandboxing of the pre-auth privsep child using an optional
2444 sshd_config(5) "UsePrivilegeSeparation=sandbox" mode that enables
2445 mandatory restrictions on the syscalls the privsep child can perform.
2446 - Add new SHA256-based HMAC transport integrity modes from
2447 http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-dbider-sha2-mac-for-ssh-02.txt.
2448 - The pre-authentication sshd(8) privilege separation slave process now
2449 logs via a socket shared with the master process, avoiding the need to
2450 maintain /dev/log inside the chroot (closes: #75043, #429243,
2451 #599240).
2452 - ssh(1) now warns when a server refuses X11 forwarding (closes:
2453 #504757).
2454 - sshd_config(5)'s AuthorizedKeysFile now accepts multiple paths,
2455 separated by whitespace (closes: #76312). The authorized_keys2
2456 fallback is deprecated but documented (closes: #560156).
2457 - ssh(1) and sshd(8): set IPv6 traffic class from IPQoS, as well as IPv4
2458 ToS/DSCP (closes: #498297).
2459 - ssh-add(1) now accepts keys piped from standard input. E.g. "ssh-add
2460 - < /path/to/key" (closes: #229124).
2461 - Clean up lost-passphrase text in ssh-keygen(1) (closes: #444691).
2462 - Say "required" rather than "recommended" in unprotected-private-key
2463 warning (LP: #663455).
2464 * Update OpenSSH FAQ to revision 1.112.

2540 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.7):
2541 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
2542 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
2543 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
2544 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
2545 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
2546 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
2547 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
2548 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
2549 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
2550 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
2551 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
2552 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
2553 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
2554 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
2555 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
2556 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
2557 (closes: #594687).
2558 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
2559 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
2560 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
2561 it to be stripped off).
2562 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2563 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
2564 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
2565 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
2566 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
2567 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
2568 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
2569 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
2570 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.

2689
2690 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
2691 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
2692 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
2693 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
2694 or on the command-line.
2695 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
2696 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
2697 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
2698 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
2699 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
2700 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
2701 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
2702 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
2703 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
2704 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
2705 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
2706 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
2707 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
2708 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
2709 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
2710 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
2711 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
2712 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
2713 (closes: #270399, #428082).
2714 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
2715 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
2716 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
2717 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
2718
2719 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
2720 patches apply with offsets.
2721 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
2722 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
2723 around with uudecode.
2724 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
2725 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
2726 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
2727 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
2728 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
2729 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
2730 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
2731 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
2732 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
2733 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
2734 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
2735 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
2736 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
2737 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
2738 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
2739 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
2740 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
2741 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
2742 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
2743 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
2744 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
2745 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
2746 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
2747 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
2748 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
2749 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
2750 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
2751 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
2752 * Policy version 3.8.4:

2826 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
2827 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
2828 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
2829 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
2830 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
2831 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
2832 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
2833 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
2834 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
2835 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the
2836 internal-sftp server (closes: #524423, LP: #362511).
2837 - Add AllowAgentForwarding to available Match keywords list (closes:
2838 #540623).
2839 - Make ssh(1) send the correct channel number for
2840 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
2841 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
2842 openssh-5.1.
2843 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
2844 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
2845 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).
2846 - Disable nonfunctional ssh(1) ~C escape handler in multiplex slave
2847 connections (closes: #507541).
2848 - Fix "whitepsace" typo in ssh_config(5) (closes: #514313, LP: #303835).
2849 * Update to GSSAPI patch from
2850 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.2p1-gsskex-all-20090726.patch,
2851 including cascading credentials support (LP: #416958).

2853 * Moved to bzr.debian.org; add Vcs-Bzr and Vcs-Browser control fields.

2863 * Update OpenSSH FAQ to revision 1.110.
2864 * Remove ssh/new_config, only needed for direct upgrades from potato which
2865 are no longer particularly feasible anyway (closes: #420682).
2866 * Cope with insserv reordering of init script links.
2867 * Remove init script stop link in rc1, as killprocs handles it already.
2868 * Adjust short descriptions to avoid relying on previous experience with
2869 rsh, based on suggestions from Reuben Thomas (closes: #512198).
2870 * Remove manual page references to login.conf, which aren't applicable on
2871 non-BSD systems (closes: #154434).
2872 * Remove/adjust manual page references to BSD-specific /etc/rc (closes:
2873 #513417).
2874 * Refer to sshd_config(5) rather than sshd(8) in postinst-written
2875 /etc/ssh/sshd_config, and add UsePAM commentary from upstream-shipped
2876 configuration file (closes: #415008, although unfortunately this will
2877 only be conveniently visible on new installations).
2878 * Include URL to OpenBSD's ssl(8) in ssh(1), since I don't see a better
2879 source for the same information among Debian's manual pages (closes:
2880 #530692, LP: #456660).

2932 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there

2979
2980 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
2981 backported to 4.7p1:
2982 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
2983 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
2984 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
2985 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
2986 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
2987 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
2988 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
2989 inside the chroot environment.
2990 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
2991 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
2992 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
2993 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
2994 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
2995 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
2996 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
2997 also allow Protocol 1.
2998 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
2999 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
3000 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
3001 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
3002 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
3003 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
3004 embedded backslash escape sequences.
3005 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
3006 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
3007 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
3008 /bin/sh.
3009 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
3010 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
3011 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
3012 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
3013 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
3014 connections via a ProxyCommand.
3015 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
3016 #140828).
3017 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
3018 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
3019 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
3020 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
3021 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
3022 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
3023 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
3024 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
3025 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
3026 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
3027 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
3028 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
3029 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
3030 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
3031 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
3032 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
3033 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
3034 (LP: #119295).
3035 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
3036 chroot (LP: #237557).
3037 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
3038 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
3039 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
3040 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
3041 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
3042 rejection of changed host keys.
3043 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
3044 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
3045 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
3046 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
3047 matching.
3048 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
3049 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
3050 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
3051 source address and hostname) to test the application of
3052 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
3053 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
3054 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
3055 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
3056 connections only).
3057 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
3058 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
3059 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
3060 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
3061 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
3062 the server).
3063 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
3064 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
3065 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
3066 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
3067 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
3068 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
3069 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
3070 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
3071 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
3072 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
3073 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
3074 hijacked.
3075 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
3076 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
3077 fingerprint.
3078 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
3079 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
3080 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
3081 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
3082 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
3083 forwarder.
3084 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
3085 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
3086 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
3087 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
3088 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
3089 address and give up if that failed.
3090 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
3091 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
3092 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
3093 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
3094 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
3095 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
3096 from 768 to 1024 bits.
3097 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
3098 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
3099 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
3100 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
3101 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
3102 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
3103 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
3104 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
3105 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
3106 blocks.
3107 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
3108 that are available to a primary connection.
3109 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
3110 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
3111 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
3112 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
3113 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
3114 server runs out of file descriptors).
3115 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
3116 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
3117 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
3118 platforms.
3119 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.
3120 * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description.
3121 * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client
3122 directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink
3123 targets).
3124 * Merge from Ubuntu:

3204 * Fix various ssh-vulnkey problems pointed out by Solar Designer:
3205 - Fix some buffer handling inconsistencies.
3206 - Use xasprintf to build user key file names, avoiding truncation
3207 problems.
3208 - Drop to the user's UID when reading user keys with -a.
3209 - Use EUID rather than UID when run with no file names and without -a.
3210 - Reword "Unknown (no blacklist information)" to "Unknown (blacklist
3211 file not installed)".

3360 * New upstream release (closes: #453367).
3361 - CVE-2007-4752: Prevent ssh(1) from using a trusted X11 cookie if
3362 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
3363 (closes: #444738).
3364 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
3365 installations are unchanged.
3366 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
3367 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
3368 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
3369 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
3370 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
3371 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
3372 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
3373 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
3374 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
3375 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
3376 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
3377 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
3378 without passing the full exit status.
3379 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
3380 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
3381 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
3382 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
3383 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
3384 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
3385 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.
3386 - Report GSSAPI mechanism in errors, for libraries that support multiple
3387 mechanisms.
3388 - Improve documentation for ssh-add(1)'s -d option.
3389 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
3390 into the client.
3391 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
3392 have been established.
3393 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
3394 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
3395 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
3396 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
3397 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed
3398 (closes: #405041).
3399 - Manual page datestamps updated (closes: #433181).
3400 * Install the OpenSSH FAQ in /usr/share/doc/openssh-client.
3401 - Includes documentation on copying files with colons using scp

3511 * New upstream release (closes: #395507, #397961, #420035). Important
3512 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
3513 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.4):
3514 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
3515 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
3516 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
3517 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
3518 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
3519 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
3520 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
3521 be added in future releases.
3522 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
3523 final hash of SHA256.
3524 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
3525 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
3526 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
3527 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
3528 option.
3529 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
3530 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
3531 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
3532 establish.
3533 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
3534 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
3535 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
3536 (closes: #50612).
3537 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
3538 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
3539 established.
3540 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
3541 specification of command-line arguments.
3542 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
3543 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
3544 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
3545 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
3546 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
3547 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
3548 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
3549 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
3550 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
3551 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
3552 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
3553 liberal (closes: #103677).
3554 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
3555 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
3556 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
3557 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
3558 in sshd_config.
3559 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
3560 progress meter (closes: #257524).
3561 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
3562 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
3563 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
3564 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
3565 install ChangeLog.gssapi.
3566 * Build the .deb --with-ssl-engine (closes: #408027, LP: #119295).
3567 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
3568 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).
3569 * Move init script start links to S16, move rc1 stop link to K84, and
3570 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
3571 closes: #122188).
3572 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
3573 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
3574 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
3575 * Merge from Ubuntu:
3576 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
3577 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
3578 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
3579 the default path.
3580 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
3581 openssh-client dependency.

3661 can tell, the only way to do this reliably is to write out the desired
3662 new text of the conffile in the preinst. This is gross, and requires

3781 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
3782 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
3783 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
3784 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
3785 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
3786 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
3787 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
3788 scp (closes: #349645).
3789 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
3790 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
3791 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
3792 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
3793 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
3794 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
3795 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
3796 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
3797 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
3798 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
3799 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
3800 background at the time of session exit.
3801 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
3802 without arguments (closes: #114894).
3803 - Fix timing variance for valid vs. invalid accounts when attempting
3804 Kerberos authentication.
3805 - Ensure that ssh always returns code 255 on internal error
3806 (closes: #259865).
3807 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
3808 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
3809 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
3810 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:
3811 https://launchpad.net/bugs/25528).
3812 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
3813 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
3814 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
3815 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
3816 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
3817 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
3818 - Many manual page improvements.
3819 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
3820 possible crashes.
3821 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
3822 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.3p2-gsskex-20060223.patch
3823 (closes: #352042).
3824 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
3825 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
3826 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
3827 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
3828 (closes: #349896).
3829 * Rephrase ssh/new_config and ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen debconf
3830 templates to make boolean short descriptions end with a question mark
3831 and to avoid use of the first person.

3933 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
3934 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
3935 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
3936 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
3937 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable

3996 * SELinux support (thanks, Manoj Srivastava; closes: #308555):
3997 - Added SELinux capability, and turned it on be default. Added
3998 restorecon calls in preinst and postinst (should not matter if the
3999 machine is not SELinux aware). By and large, the changes made should
4000 have no effect unless the rules file calls --with-selinux; and even
4001 then there should be no performance hit for machines not actively
4002 running SELinux.
4003 - Modified the preinst and postinst to call restorecon to set the
4004 security context for the generated public key files.
4005 - Added a comment to /etc/pam.d/ssh to indicate that an SELinux system
4006 may want to also include pam_selinux.so.
4007 * Re-enable ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, now that its build-dependencies
4008 are available.
4009 * Restore /usr/lib/sftp-server temporarily, as a symlink to
4010 /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server (closes: #312891).

4026 and has not been the default since openssh 1:3.0.1p1-1. Users who need
4027 this should edit sshd_config instead (closes: #147212).
4028 * Since ssh-keysign isn't used by default (you need to set
4029 EnableSSHKeysign to "yes" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config), having a debconf
4030 question to ask whether it should be setuid is overkill, and the
4031 question text had got out of date anyway. Remove this question, ship
4032 ssh-keysign setuid in openssh-client.deb, and set a statoverride if the
4033 debconf question was previously set to false.
4034 * Add lintian overrides for the above (setuid-binary,
4035 no-debconf-templates).
4036 * Fix picky lintian errors about slogin symlinks.
4037 * Fix DEB_HOST_ARCH_OS/DEB_HOST_GNU_SYSTEM compatibility handling.

4045 - Normalise socket addresses returned by get_remote_hostname(), fixing

4047 * Take upstream's hint and disable the unsupported USE_POSIX_THREADS
4048 (closes: #295757, #308868, and possibly others; may open other bugs).
4049 Use PAM password authentication to avoid #278394. In future I may
4050 provide two sets of binaries built with and without this option, since
4051 it seems I can't win.
4052 * Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
4053 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
4054 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).
4055 * openssh-server Suggests: rssh (closes: #233012).
4056 * Change libexecdir to /usr/lib/openssh, and fix up various alternatives
4057 and configuration files to match (closes: #87900, #151321).

4066 - Port-forwarding specifications now take optional bind addresses, and
4067 the server allows client-specified bind addresses for remote port
4068 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
4069 (closes: #87253, #192206).
4070 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
4071 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
4072 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
4073 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
4074 (closes: #287013).
4075 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
4076 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
4077 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
4078 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
4079 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).
4080 - Add "command mode" to ssh connection multiplexing (closes: #303452).
4081 - Mention $HOME/.hushlogin in sshd(8) FILES section (closes: #163933).
4082 * Make gnome-ssh-askpass stay above other windows (thanks, Liyang HU;
4083 closes: #296487).
4084 * Remove obsolete and unnecessary ssh/forward_warning debconf note.
4085 * Hurd build fixes (although sshd still doesn't work):
4086 - Restore X forwarding fix from #102991, lost somewhere along the way.
4087 - Link with -lcrypt.
4088 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
4089 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
4090 satisfy build-dependencies.
4091 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.
4092 * Enable HashKnownHosts by default. This only affects new entries; use
4093 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.
4094 * Note in ssh_config(5) that the SetupTimeOut option is Debian-specific
4095 (closes: #307069).
4096 * debconf template translations:
4097 - Update Czech (thanks, Miroslav Kure; closes: #298744).

4206 common functionality; it didn't seem worth creating yet another package
4207 for this. openssh-client is priority standard, openssh-server optional.
4208 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
4209 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends
4210 on it.
4211 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
4212 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
4213 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
4214 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged
4215 and ssh/user_environment_tell.
4216 * Add a heuristic to try to make sure the sshd_config upgrade to >= 3.7
4217 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
4218 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
4219 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing
4220 configurations, but the right approach is now to remove the
4221 openssh-server package if you don't want to run the server. Add a NEWS

4390 * New upstream release (closes: #232281):
4391 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
4392 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
4393 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
4394 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
4395 syslog (closes: #171673).
4396 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
4397 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
4398 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
4399 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
4400 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
4401 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
4402 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
4403 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
4404 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
4405 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
4406 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
4407 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
4408 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
4409 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
4410 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
4411 ssh_config(5) for details.
4412 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
4413 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
4414 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
4415 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
4416 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.
4417 * Darren Tucker:
4418 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
4419 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.
4420 - Fix a non-security-critical segfault in PAM authentication.

4592 - Get rid of "if you have not installed debconf" text in README.Debian,
4593 and generally update the "/usr/bin/ssh not SUID" entry.
4594 * More README.Debian work:
4595 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
4596 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
4597 should probably be sorted by version somehow.

4651 * Stop using pam_lastlog, as it doesn't currently work well as a session
4652 module when privilege separation is enabled; it can usually read

5515 * Moved setting upgrade_to_openssh isdefault flag to the place
5516 where preinst would abort. This means no double question to most
5517 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
5518 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
5519 use_old_init_script, as the situation is a bit different, and
5520 less common (closes: #54010, #56224)
5521 * Check for existance of ssh-keygen before attempting to use it in
5522 preinst, added warning for non-existant ssh-keygen in config. This
5523 happens when the old ssh is removed (say, due to ssh-nonfree getting
5524 installed).
