32openssh (1:7.4p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
33
34 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.4):
35 - ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
36 block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
37 attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only
38 mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting
39 to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly
40 likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key
41 exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway.
42 - sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an
43 authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse
44 to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous
45 (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command
46 override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone.
47 - sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for
48 having /bin/login manage login sessions.
49 - CVE-2016-10009: ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules
50 from paths outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable).
51 Requests to load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an
52 attacker could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the
53 forwarded agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this
54 would result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if
55 the attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
56 running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem of
57 the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh client)
58 (closes: #848714).
59 - CVE-2016-10010: sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled,
60 forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the
61 privileges of 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release
62 refuses Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is
63 disabled (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14
64 years) (closes: #848715).
65 - CVE-2016-10011: sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key
66 material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when
67 reading keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized
68 keys, nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key
69 material to unprivileged users (closes: #848716).
70 - CVE-2016-10012: sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by
71 pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could
72 be elided by some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory
73 manager was incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression
74 was disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
75 privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
76 process (a compromise of the latter would be required first). This
77 release removes support for pre-authentication compression from
78 sshd(8) (closes: #848717).
79 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
80 directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
81 ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
82 ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly
83 resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
84 - ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
85 version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing client
86 to communicate with the master process using a subset of the SSH
87 packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket, with the main
88 process acting as a proxy that translates channel IDs, etc. This
89 allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that lack file-descriptor
90 passing (used by current multiplexing code) and potentially, in
91 conjunction with Unix-domain socket forwarding, with the client and
92 multiplexing master process on different machines. Multiplexing proxy
93 mode may be invoked using "ssh -O proxy ...".
94 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables X11,
95 agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well as
96 anything else we might implement in the future. Like the 'restrict'
97 authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple and future-proof
98 way of restricting an account.
99 - sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange method.
100 This is identical to the currently-supported method named
101 "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
102 - sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
103 already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3) if it
104 is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will retain the
105 same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will also now
106 unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create it after a
107 successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in the case of a
108 configuration error.
109 - sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax directives
110 to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
111 - sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match those
112 supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type, fingerprint, etc.)
113 and a few more to provide access to the contents of the certificate
114 being offered.
115 - ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use certificates
116 that have no corresponding bare public key.
117 - ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple authentication is
118 in use and publickey is not just the first method attempted.
119 - ssh(1): Improve reporting when attempting to load keys from PKCS#11
120 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more detail in debug
121 messages.
122 - ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't pollute
123 stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
124 - sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before suspending
125 sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode correctly if
126 suspended during a password prompt.
127 - ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
128 prompt (LP: #1646813).
129 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-info
130 messages.
131 - sshd(8): Fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-sequence
132 NEWKEYS message.
133 - sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in the
134 server-sig-algs extension.
135 - sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
136 - sshd(8): More strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
137 separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them only
138 when their respective authentication methods are enabled in the
139 configuration.
140 - sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
141 configuration examples.
142 - On environments configured with Turkish locales, fall back to the
143 C/POSIX locale to avoid errors in configuration parsing caused by that
144 locale's unique handling of the letters 'i' and 'I' (LP: #1638338).
145 - contrib: Add a gnome-ssh-askpass3 with GTK+3 support.
146 - sshd(8): Improve PRNG reseeding across privilege separation and force
147 libcrypto to obtain a high-quality seed before chroot or sandboxing.
148 * Apply "wrap-and-sort -at -f debian/control -f debian/tests/control".
149 * Remove entries related to protocol 1 from the default sshd_config
150 generated on new installations.
151 * Remove some advice related to protocol 1 from README.Debian.
152 * Start handling /etc/ssh/sshd_config using ucf. The immediate motivation
153 for this is to deal with deprecations of options related to protocol 1,
154 but something like this has been needed for a long time (closes:
155 #419574, #848089):
156 - sshd_config is now a slightly-patched version of upstream's, and only
157 contains non-default settings (closes: #147201).
158 - I've included as many historical md5sums of default versions of
159 sshd_config as I could reconstruct from version control, but I'm sure
160 I've missed some.
161 - Explicitly synchronise the debconf database with the current
162 configuration file state in openssh-server.config, to ensure that the
163 PermitRootLogin setting is properly preserved.
164 - UsePrivilegeSeparation now defaults to the stronger "sandbox" rather
165 than "yes", per upstream.
166 * Remove redundant "GSSAPIDelegateCredentials no" from ssh_config (already
167 the upstream default), and document that setting ServerAliveInterval to
168 300 by default if BatchMode is set is Debian-specific (closes: #765630).
169 * Build gnome-ssh-askpass with GTK+ 3 (LP: #801187).
170 * When running regression tests under autopkgtest, use a non-root user
171 with passwordless sudo.

213
214 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.3):
215 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Mitigate a potential denial-of-service attack
216 against the system's crypt(3) function via sshd(8). An attacker could
217 send very long passwords that would cause excessive CPU use in
218 crypt(3). sshd(8) now refuses to accept password authentication
219 requests of length greater than 1024 characters.
220 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix observable timing weakness in the CBC
221 padding oracle countermeasures. Note that CBC ciphers are disabled by
222 default and only included for legacy compatibility.
223 - SECURITY: ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve operation ordering of MAC
224 verification for Encrypt-then-MAC (EtM) mode transport MAC algorithms
225 to verify the MAC before decrypting any ciphertext. This removes the
226 possibility of timing differences leaking facts about the plaintext,
227 though no such leakage has been observed.
228 - ssh(1): Add a ProxyJump option and corresponding -J command-line flag
229 to allow simplified indirection through a one or more SSH bastions or
230 "jump hosts".
231 - ssh(1): Add an IdentityAgent option to allow specifying specific agent
232 sockets instead of accepting one from the environment.
233 - ssh(1): Allow ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings to be
234 optionally overridden when using ssh -W.
235 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Implement support for the IUTF8 terminal mode as per
236 draft-sgtatham-secsh-iutf8-00 (closes: #337041, LP: #394570).
237 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for additional fixed Diffie-Hellman 2K,
238 4K and 8K groups from draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2-03.
239 - ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), sshd(8): Support SHA256 and SHA512 RSA
240 signatures in certificates.
241 - ssh(1): Add an Include directive for ssh_config(5) files (closes:
242 #536031).
243 - ssh(1): Permit UTF-8 characters in pre-authentication banners sent
244 from the server.
245 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Reduce the syslog level of some relatively common
246 protocol events from LOG_CRIT.
247 - sshd(8): Refuse AuthenticationMethods="" in configurations and accept
248 AuthenticationMethods=any for the default behaviour of not requiring
249 multiple authentication.
250 - sshd(8): Remove obsolete and misleading "POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT!"
251 message when forward and reverse DNS don't match.
252 - ssh(1): Deduplicate LocalForward and RemoteForward entries to fix
253 failures when both ExitOnForwardFailure and hostname canonicalisation
254 are enabled.
255 - sshd(8): Remove fallback from moduli to obsolete "primes" file that
256 was deprecated in 2001 (LP: #1528251).
257 - sshd_config(5): Correct description of UseDNS: it affects ssh hostname
258 processing for authorized_keys, not known_hosts.
259 - sshd(8): Send ClientAliveInterval pings when a time-based RekeyLimit
260 is set; previously keepalive packets were not being sent.
261 - sshd(8): Whitelist more architectures to enable the seccomp-bpf
262 sandbox.
263 - scp(1): Respect the local user's LC_CTYPE locale (closes: #396295).
264 - Take character display widths into account for the progressmeter
265 (closes: #407088).

281 the corresponding upstart job in that case (closes: #832445).

295 * Recommend libpam-systemd from openssh-server. It's a much better
296 solution than the above for systemd users, but I'm wary of depending on
297 it in case I cause an assortment of exciting dependency problems on
298 upgrade for non-systemd users.

368
369 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.2):
370 - This release disables a number of legacy cryptographic algorithms by
371 default in ssh:
372 + Several ciphers blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, all arcfour variants and
373 the rijndael-cbc aliases for AES.
374 + MD5-based and truncated HMAC algorithms.
375 These algorithms are already disabled by default in sshd.
376 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Remove unfinished and unused roaming code (was
377 already forcibly disabled in OpenSSH 7.1p2).
378 - ssh(1): Eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted
379 forwarding when the X server disables the SECURITY extension.
380 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Increase the minimum modulus size supported for
381 diffie-hellman-group-exchange to 2048 bits.
382 - sshd(8): Pre-auth sandboxing is now enabled by default (previous
383 releases enabled it for new installations via sshd_config).
384 - all: Add support for RSA signatures using SHA-256/512 hash algorithms
385 based on draft-rsa-dsa-sha2-256-03.txt and draft-ssh-ext-info-04.txt.
386 - ssh(1): Add an AddKeysToAgent client option which can be set to 'yes',
387 'no', 'ask', or 'confirm', and defaults to 'no'. When enabled, a
388 private key that is used during authentication will be added to
389 ssh-agent if it is running (with confirmation enabled if set to
390 'confirm').
391 - sshd(8): Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all
392 current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc.). Also add
393 permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" ->
394 "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and
395 ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions
396 we might implement in the future.
397 - ssh(1): Add ssh_config CertificateFile option to explicitly list
398 certificates.
399 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow ssh-keygen to change the key comment for all
400 supported formats (closes: #811125).
401 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting from standard input, e.g.
402 "ssh-keygen -lf -" (closes: #509058).
403 - ssh-keygen(1): Allow fingerprinting multiple public keys in a file,
404 e.g. "ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/authorized_keys".
405 - sshd(8): Support "none" as an argument for sshd_config Foreground and
406 ChrootDirectory. Useful inside Match blocks to override a global
407 default.
408 - ssh-keygen(1): Support multiple certificates (one per line) and
409 reading from standard input (using "-f -") for "ssh-keygen -L"
410 - ssh-keyscan(1): Add "ssh-keyscan -c ..." flag to allow fetching
411 certificates instead of plain keys.
412 - ssh(1): Better handle anchored FQDNs (e.g. 'cvs.openbsd.org.') in
413 hostname canonicalisation - treat them as already canonical and remove
414 the trailing '.' before matching ssh_config.
415 - sftp(1): Existing destination directories should not terminate

500
501 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.0, closes:
502 #785190):
503 - Support for the legacy SSH version 1 protocol is disabled by default
504 at compile time.
505 - Support for the 1024-bit diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 key exchange is
506 disabled by default at run-time. It may be re-enabled using the
507 instructions at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
508 - Support for ssh-dss, ssh-dss-cert-* host and user keys is disabled by
509 default at run-time. These may be re-enabled using the instructions
510 at http://www.openssh.com/legacy.html
511 - Support for the legacy v00 cert format has been removed.
512 - The default for the sshd_config(5) PermitRootLogin option has changed
513 from "yes" to "prohibit-password".
514 - PermitRootLogin=without-password/prohibit-password now bans all
515 interactive authentication methods, allowing only public-key,
516 hostbased and GSSAPI authentication (previously it permitted
517 keyboard-interactive and password-less authentication if those were
518 enabled).
519 - ssh_config(5): Add PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes option to control which
520 public key types are available for user authentication.
521 - sshd_config(5): Add HostKeyAlgorithms option to control which public
522 key types are offered for host authentications.
523 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Extend Ciphers, MACs, KexAlgorithms,
524 HostKeyAlgorithms, PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes and HostbasedKeyTypes
525 options to allow appending to the default set of algorithms instead of
526 replacing it. Options may now be prefixed with a '+' to append to the
527 default, e.g. "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss".
528 - sshd_config(5): PermitRootLogin now accepts an argument of
529 'prohibit-password' as a less-ambiguous synonym of 'without-
530 password'.
531 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatability workarounds for Cisco and more
532 PuTTY versions.
533 - Fix some omissions and errors in the PROTOCOL and PROTOCOL.mux
534 documentation relating to Unix domain socket forwarding.
535 - ssh(1): Improve the ssh(1) manual page to include a better description
536 of Unix domain socket forwarding (closes: #779068).
537 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Skip uninitialised PKCS#11 slots, fixing
538 failures to load keys when they are present.
539 - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): Do not ignore PKCS#11 hosted keys that wth empty
540 CKA_ID.
541 - sshd(8): Clarify documentation for UseDNS option.
542 - Check realpath(3) behaviour matches what sftp-server requires and use
543 a replacement if necessary.
544 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.1):
545 - sshd(8): OpenSSH 7.0 contained a logic error in PermitRootLogin=
546 prohibit-password/without-password that could, depending on
547 compile-time configuration, permit password authentication to root
548 while preventing other forms of authentication. This problem was
549 reported by Mantas Mikulenas.
550 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add compatibility workarounds for FuTTY.
551 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Refine compatibility workarounds for WinSCP.
552 - Fix a number of memory faults (double-free, free of uninitialised
553 memory, etc) in ssh(1) and ssh-keygen(1). Reported by Mateusz
554 Kocielski.
555 * Change "PermitRootLogin without-password" to the new preferred spelling
556 of "PermitRootLogin prohibit-password" in sshd_config, and update
557 documentation to reflect the new upstream default.
558 * Enable conch interoperability tests under autopkgtest.

587
588 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.8):
589 - sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match
590 against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may
591 need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses.
592 - Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent
593 command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for
594 key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format
595 from hex to base64.
596 Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the
597 new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE
598 Please note that visual host keys will also be different.
599 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a
600 protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its
601 available host keys after authentication has completed. The client
602 may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better
603 host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys.
604 The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config
605 option (default off).
606 - ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host
607 public key types are tried during host-based authentication.
608 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
609 sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
610 - ssh(1): When host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host
611 names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
612 bz#2074 and avoids needless DNS lookups in some cases.
613 - ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based
614 authentication.
615 - sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al,
616 Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA
617 decryption.
618 - sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication
619 and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
620 AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users
621 authenticate using two _different_ public keys.
622 - sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
623 PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public
624 key types will be accepted (closes: #481133). Currently defaults to
625 all.
626 - sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure
627 against MaxAuthTries.
628 - ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file
629 or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
630 - ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial
631 number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA.
632 - ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match
633 blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
634 - ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its
635 configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T".
636 - ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host".
637 - ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust against
638 servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol (closes: #241119).
639 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were
640 being lost as comment fields (closes: #787776).
641 - ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse
642 phase to be applied (they were being ignored; closes: #774369).
643 - ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the
644 second pass through the config files always run when host name
645 canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes)
646 - ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection
647 multiplexing is in use.
648 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH
649 formats.
650 - ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use.
651 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.9):
652 - CVE-2015-5352: ssh(1): When forwarding X11 connections with
653 ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired
654 could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions
655 because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail
656 open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections
657 with expired credentials (closes: #790798). This problem was reported
658 by Jann Horn.
659 - SECURITY: ssh-agent(1): Fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to
660 password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing
661 a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and
662 using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts.
663 This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci.
664 - sshd(8): Support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand
665 (closes: #740494).
666 - sshd(8): Add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving
667 authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a
668 file.
669 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry
670 devices.
671 - ssh-keygen(1): Support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts
672 and print key hashes rather than full keys.
673 - ssh-agent(1): Add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without
674 enabling debug mode.
675 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD
676 message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH
677 implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP).
678 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco
679 implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes
680 >4K (closes: #740307, LP: #1287222).
681 - ssh(1): Fix out-of-bound read in EscapeChar configuration option
682 parsing.
683 - sshd(8): Fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime,
684 AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks.
685 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Improve disconnection message on TCP reset.
686 - ssh(1): Remove failed remote forwards established by multiplexing from
687 the list of active forwards.
688 - sshd(8): Make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options
689 independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled.
690 - sshd(8): Fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none (closes: #778807).
691 - ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): Allow new-format private keys to be
692 encrypted with AEAD ciphers.
693 - ssh(1): Allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration
694 options to appear in any order.
695 - sshd(8): Check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum
696 and ForceCommand.
697 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal.
698 - ssh-keygen(1): Make stdout and stderr output consistent.
699 - ssh(1): Mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11
700 forwarding requested.
701 - sshd(8): Correctly record login when UseLogin is set.
702 - sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of
703 VersionAddendum and HostCertificate.
704 - Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none"
705 argument: TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys, AuthorizedPrincipalsFile.
706 - ssh(1): Include remote username in debug output.
707 - sshd(8): Avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term,
708 which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message
709 (hostkeys-00@openssh.com).
710 - sshd(8): Mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5
711 host key fingerprints.
712 - ssh(1): Clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and make manual
713 language consistent.
714 - ssh(1): Document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to
715 SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386
716 - sshd(8): Format UsePAM setting when using sshd -T (closes: #767648).
717 - moduli(5): Update DH-GEX moduli (closes: #787037).
718 * There are some things I want to fix before upgrading to 7.0p1, though I
719 intend to do that soon. In the meantime, backport some patches, mainly
720 to fix security issues:
721 - SECURITY: sshd(8): OpenSSH 6.8 and 6.9 incorrectly set TTYs to be
722 world-writable. Local attackers may be able to write arbitrary
723 messages to logged-in users, including terminal escape sequences.
724 Reported by Nikolay Edigaryev.
725 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a privilege separation weakness related to
726 PAM support. Attackers who could successfully compromise the
727 pre-authentication process for remote code execution and who had valid
728 credentials on the host could impersonate other users. Reported by
729 Moritz Jodeit.
730 - SECURITY: sshd(8): Fixed a use-after-free bug related to PAM support
731 that was reachable by attackers who could compromise the
732 pre-authentication process for remote code execution (closes:
733 #795711). Also reported by Moritz Jodeit.
734 - CVE-2015-5600: sshd(8): Fix circumvention of MaxAuthTries using
735 keyboard-interactive authentication (closes: #793616). By specifying
736 a long, repeating keyboard-interactive "devices" string, an attacker
737 could request the same authentication method be tried thousands of
738 times in a single pass. The LoginGraceTime timeout in sshd(8) and any
739 authentication failure delays implemented by the authentication
740 mechanism itself were still applied. Found by Kingcope.
741 - Let principals-command.sh work for noexec /var/run.
742 * Thanks to Jakub Jelen of Red Hat for Fedora's rebased version of the
743 GSSAPI key exchange patch.
744 * Document the Debian-specific change to the default value of
745 ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) (closes: #781469).

803 * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7):
804 - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
805 remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are
806 disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if
807 configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
808 - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A
809 remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and
810 vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718).
811 - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519
812 key types.
813 - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
814 - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is
815 the same as the one sent during initial key exchange.
816 - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses
817 when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family.
818 - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
819 ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
820 option.
821 - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that
822 expands to a unique identifier based on a hash of the tuple of (local
823 host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly
824 pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths.
825 - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include
826 the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the
827 authentication success / failure messages.
828 - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
829 available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
830 timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes:
831 #734553).
832 - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing
833 /proc/self/{mem,maps}.
834 * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that
835 dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other
836 hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping
837 it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could
838 easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear
839 what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably
840 doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.
841 * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version
842 of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status
843 field.
844 * Build-depend on a new enough dpkg-dev for dpkg-buildflags, rather than
845 simply a new enough dpkg.
846 * Simplify debian/rules using /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk.
847 * Use Package-Type rather than XC-Package-Type, now that it is an official
848 field.
849 * Run a subset of the upstream regression test suite at package build
850 time, and the rest of it under autopkgtest.

1037 - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a

1039 unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names

1046 leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
1047 nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
1048 likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651). See

1144 * Change start condition of Upstart job to be just the standard "runlevel
1145 [2345]", rather than "filesystem or runlevel [2345]"; the latter makes
1146 it unreasonably difficult to ensure that urandom starts before ssh, and
1147 is not really necessary since one of static-network-up and failsafe-boot
1148 is guaranteed to happen and will trigger entry to the default runlevel,
1149 and we don't care about ssh starting before the network (LP: #1098299).
1150 * Drop conffile handling for direct upgrades from pre-split ssh package;
1151 this was originally added in 1:4.3p2-7 / 1:4.3p2-8, and contained a
1152 truly ghastly hack around a misbehaviour in sarge's dpkg. Since this is
1153 now four Debian releases ago, we can afford to drop this and simplify
1154 the packaging.
1155 * Remove ssh/use_old_init_script, which was a workaround for a very old
1156 bug in /etc/init.d/ssh. If anyone has ignored this for >10 years then
1157 they aren't going to be convinced now (closes: #214182).

1163 * Replace old manual conffile handling code with dpkg-maintscript-helper,
1164 via dh_installdeb.
1165 * Switch to new unified layout for Upstart jobs as documented in
1166 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UpstartCompatibleInitScripts: the init script
1167 checks for a running Upstart, and we now let dh_installinit handle most
1168 of the heavy lifting in maintainer scripts. Ubuntu users should be
1169 essentially unaffected except that sshd may no longer start
1170 automatically in chroots if the running Upstart predates 0.9.0; but the
1171 main goal is simply not to break when openssh-server is installed in a
1172 chroot.
1173 * Remove the check for vulnerable host keys; this was first added five
1174 years ago, and everyone should have upgraded through a version that
1175 applied these checks by now. The ssh-vulnkey tool and the blacklisting
1176 support in sshd are still here, at least for the moment.

1451 - Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
1452 and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA
1453 offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent
1454 symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys.
1455 - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
1456 link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the
1457 client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available
1458 using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command.
1459 - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
1460 are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613).
1461 - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
1462 a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
1463 succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server
1464 socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784).
1465 Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250).
1466 - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process
1467 (closes: #594687).
1468 - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent
1469 temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange
1470 for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause
1471 it to be stripped off).
1472 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
1473 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.7p1-gsskex-all-20110125.patch:
1474 - Add GSSAPIServerIdentity option.
1475 * Generate ECDSA host keys on fresh installations. Upgraders who wish to
1476 add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
1477 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run 'ssh-keygen
1478 -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N "" -t ecdsa'.
1479 * Build-depend on libssl-dev (>= 0.9.8g) to ensure sufficient ECC support.
1480 * Backport SELinux build fix from CVS.

1600 * New upstream release (LP: #535029).
1601 - After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH
1602 protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
1603 legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
1604 or on the command-line.
1605 - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
1606 PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian
1607 packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library
1608 dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918).
1609 - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
1610 new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806).
1611 - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...".
1612 - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian
1613 package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in
1614 openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly
1615 different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.)
1616 - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting
1617 port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151).
1618 - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
1619 override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843).
1620 - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options,
1621 and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old
1622 mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed
1623 (closes: #270399, #428082).
1624 - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log
1625 the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538).
1626 - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also,
1627 allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
1628
1629 * Fix 'debian/rules quilt-setup' to avoid writing .orig files if some
1630 patches apply with offsets.
1631 * Include debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.png in the Debian tarball now that
1632 we're using a source format that permits this, rather than messing
1633 around with uudecode.
1634 * Drop compatibility with the old gssapi mechanism used in ssh-krb5 <<
1635 3.8.1p1-1. Simon Wilkinson refused this patch since the old gssapi
1636 mechanism was removed due to a serious security hole, and since these
1637 versions of ssh-krb5 are no longer security-supported by Debian I don't
1638 think there's any point keeping client compatibility for them.
1639 * Fix substitution of ETC_PAM_D_SSH, following the rename in 1:4.7p1-4.
1640 * Hardcode the location of xauth to /usr/bin/xauth rather than
1641 /usr/bin/X11/xauth (thanks, Aron Griffis; closes: #575725, LP: #8440).
1642 xauth no longer depends on x11-common, so we're no longer guaranteed to
1643 have the /usr/bin/X11 symlink available. I was taking advantage of the
1644 /usr/bin/X11 symlink to smooth X's move to /usr/bin, but this is far
1645 enough in the past now that it's probably safe to just use /usr/bin.
1646 * Remove SSHD_OOM_ADJUST configuration. sshd now unconditionally makes
1647 itself non-OOM-killable, and doesn't require configuration to avoid log
1648 spam in virtualisation containers (closes: #555625).
1649 * Drop Debian-specific removal of OpenSSL version check. Upstream ignores
1650 the two patchlevel nybbles now, which is sufficient to address the
1651 original reason this change was introduced, and it appears that any
1652 change in the major/minor/fix nybbles would involve a new libssl package
1653 name. (We'd still lose if the status nybble were ever changed, but that
1654 would mean somebody had packaged a development/beta version rather than
1655 a proper release, which doesn't appear to be normal practice.)
1656 * Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originally
1657 introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not
1658 suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is
1659 much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not
1660 suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to
1661 "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
1662 * Policy version 3.8.4:
1663 - Add a Homepage field.

1697 * Backport from upstream:
1698 - Do not fall back to adding keys without constraints (ssh-add -c / -t
1699 ...) when the agent refuses the constrained add request. This was a
1700 useful migration measure back in 2002 when constraints were new, but
1701 just adds risk now (LP: #209447).
1702 * Drop change from 1:3.8p1-3 to avoid setresuid() and setresgid() system
1703 calls. This only applied to Linux 2.2, which it's no longer feasible to
1704 run anyway (see 1:5.2p1-2 changelog).

1711 * Backport from upstream:
1712 - After sshd receives a SIGHUP, ignore subsequent HUPs while sshd
1713 re-execs itself. Prevents two HUPs in quick succession from resulting
1714 in sshd dying (LP: #497781).
1715 - Output a debug if we can't open an existing keyfile (LP: #505301).
1716 * Use host compiler for ssh-askpass-gnome when cross-compiling.
1717 * Don't run tests when cross-compiling.
1718 * Drop change from 1:3.6.1p2-5 to disable cmsg_type check for file
1719 descriptor passing when running on Linux 2.0. The previous stable
1720 release of Debian dropped support for Linux 2.4, let alone 2.0, so this

1732 * New upstream release (closes: #536182). Yes, I know 5.3p1 has been out
1733 for a while, but there's no GSSAPI patch available for it yet.
1734 - Change the default cipher order to prefer the AES CTR modes and the
1735 revised "arcfour256" mode to CBC mode ciphers that are susceptible to
1736 CPNI-957037 "Plaintext Recovery Attack Against SSH".
1737 - Add countermeasures to mitigate CPNI-957037-style attacks against the
1738 SSH protocol's use of CBC-mode ciphers. Upon detection of an invalid
1739 packet length or Message Authentication Code, ssh/sshd will continue
1740 reading up to the maximum supported packet length rather than
1741 immediately terminating the connection. This eliminates most of the
1742 known differences in behaviour that leaked information about the
1743 plaintext of injected data which formed the basis of this attack
1744 (closes: #506115, LP: #379329).
1745 - ForceCommand directive now accepts commandline arguments for the
1746 internal-sftp server (closes: #524423, LP: #362511).
1747 - Add AllowAgentForwarding to available Match keywords list (closes:
1748 #540623).
1749 - Make ssh(1) send the correct channel number for
1750 SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS and SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE messages to
1751 avoid triggering 'Non-public channel' error messages on sshd(8) in
1752 openssh-5.1.
1753 - Avoid printing 'Non-public channel' warnings in sshd(8), since the
1754 ssh(1) has sent incorrect channel numbers since ~2004 (this reverts a
1755 behaviour introduced in openssh-5.1; closes: #496017).
1756 - Disable nonfunctional ssh(1) ~C escape handler in multiplex slave
1757 connections (closes: #507541).
1758 - Fix "whitepsace" typo in ssh_config(5) (closes: #514313, LP: #303835).
1759 * Update to GSSAPI patch from
1760 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-5.2p1-gsskex-all-20090726.patch,
1761 including cascading credentials support (LP: #416958).
1762 * Use x11.pc when compiling/linking gnome-ssh-askpass2 (closes: #555951).
1763 * Moved to bzr.debian.org; add Vcs-Bzr and Vcs-Browser control fields.

1774 * Remove ssh/new_config, only needed for direct upgrades from potato which
1775 are no longer particularly feasible anyway (closes: #420682).
1776 * Cope with insserv reordering of init script links.
1777 * Remove init script stop link in rc1, as killprocs handles it already.
1778 * Adjust short descriptions to avoid relying on previous experience with
1779 rsh, based on suggestions from Reuben Thomas (closes: #512198).
1780 * Remove manual page references to login.conf, which aren't applicable on
1781 non-BSD systems (closes: #154434).
1782 * Remove/adjust manual page references to BSD-specific /etc/rc (closes:

1842 * Check that /var/run/sshd.pid exists and that the process ID listed there

1845 install its signal handler, but fortunately the pid file is written
1846 after that which lets us avoid the race (closes: #502444).

1889
1890 * New upstream release (closes: #474301). Important changes not previously
1891 backported to 4.7p1:
1892 - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9):
1893 + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option
1894 "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777).
1895 + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used
1896 when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or
1897 ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the
1898 internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files
1899 inside the chroot environment.
1900 + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for
1901 sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1)
1902 prefers this if available (closes: #308561).
1903 + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8).
1904 + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server
1905 keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated.
1906 This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that
1907 also allow Protocol 1.
1908 + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match
1909 block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network.
1910 + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more
1911 internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more
1912 consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the
1913 interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with
1914 embedded backslash escape sequences.
1915 + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a
1916 pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block).
1917 + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than
1918 /bin/sh.
1919 + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP
1920 connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered
1921 the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect
1922 and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't
1923 progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for
1924 connections via a ProxyCommand.
1925 + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes:
1926 #140828).
1927 + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch.
1928 + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS,
1929 instead of the current standard RRSIG.
1930 + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway,
1931 avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition.
1932 + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF
1933 hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed.
1934 + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a
1935 binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that
1936 does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses.
1937 + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is
1938 already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661).
1939 + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master.
1940 + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality.
1941 + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or
1942 failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680).
1943 + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure
1944 (LP: #119295).
1945 + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a
1946 chroot (LP: #237557).
1947 - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1):
1948 + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1)
1949 and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new
1950 ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH
1951 host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and
1952 rejection of changed host keys.
1953 + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match
1954 address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching.
1955 + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
1956 from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard
1957 matching.
1958 + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write
1959 its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode
1960 also supports the specification of connection parameters (username,
1961 source address and hostname) to test the application of
1962 sshd_config(5) Match rules.
1963 + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall
1964 connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose
1965 mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1
1966 connections only).
1967 + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com
1968 and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations.
1969 + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the
1970 statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem
1971 space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on
1972 the server).
1973 + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
1974 number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP
1975 connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions
1976 above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
1977 (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
1978 entirely (MaxSessions=0).
1979 + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that
1980 is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will
1981 never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is
1982 disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests
1983 and terminate the session in cases where the client has been
1984 hijacked.
1985 + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination
1986 with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its
1987 fingerprint.
1988 + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of
1989 "rsa1" (LP: #129794).
1990 + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control
1991 whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this
1992 is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial
1993 forwarder.
1994 + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when
1995 receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup.
1996 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting
1997 to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than
1998 one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first
1999 address and give up if that failed.
2000 + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are
2001 half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension
2002 notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed
2003 file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od
2004 /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire.
2005 + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys
2006 from 768 to 1024 bits.
2007 + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh
2008 -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after
2009 replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust
2010 detection of -R forward failure when using -f.
2011 + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of
2012 groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests".
2013 + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set
2014 set[ug]id/sticky bits.
2015 + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match
2016 blocks.
2017 + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes
2018 that are available to a primary connection.
2019 + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new
2020 connection in most error cases (closes: #352830).
2021 + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail.
2022 Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always
2023 succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the
2024 server runs out of file descriptors).
2025 + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's
2026 stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master).
2027 + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium
2028 platforms.
2029 * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream.

2272 creation of an untrusted cookie fails; found and fixed by Jan Pechanec
2273 (closes: #444738).
2274 - sshd(8) in new installations defaults to SSH Protocol 2 only. Existing
2275 installations are unchanged.
2276 - The SSH channel window size has been increased, and both ssh(1)
2277 sshd(8) now send window updates more aggressively. These improves
2278 performance on high-BDP (Bandwidth Delay Product) networks.
2279 - ssh(1) and sshd(8) now preserve MAC contexts between packets, which
2280 saves 2 hash calls per packet and results in 12-16% speedup for
2281 arcfour256/hmac-md5.
2282 - A new MAC algorithm has been added, UMAC-64 (RFC4418) as
2283 "umac-64@openssh.com". UMAC-64 has been measured to be approximately
2284 20% faster than HMAC-MD5.
2285 - Failure to establish a ssh(1) TunnelForward is now treated as a fatal
2286 error when the ExitOnForwardFailure option is set.
2287 - ssh(1) returns a sensible exit status if the control master goes away
2288 without passing the full exit status.
2289 - When using a ProxyCommand in ssh(1), set the outgoing hostname with
2290 gethostname(2), allowing hostbased authentication to work.
2291 - Make scp(1) skip FIFOs rather than hanging (closes: #246774).
2292 - Encode non-printing characters in scp(1) filenames. These could cause
2293 copies to be aborted with a "protocol error".
2294 - Handle SIGINT in sshd(8) privilege separation child process to ensure
2295 that wtmp and lastlog records are correctly updated.

2297 mechanisms.

2299 - Rearrange and tidy GSSAPI code, removing server-only code being linked
2300 into the client.
2301 - Delay execution of ssh(1)'s LocalCommand until after all forwardings
2302 have been established.
2303 - In scp(1), do not truncate non-regular files.
2304 - Improve exit message from ControlMaster clients.
2305 - Prevent sftp-server(8) from reading until it runs out of buffer space,
2306 whereupon it would exit with a fatal error (closes: #365541).
2307 - pam_end() was not being called if authentication failed

2420
2421 * New upstream release (closes: #395507, #397961, #420035). Important
2422 changes not previously backported to 4.3p2:
2423 - 4.4/4.4p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.4):
2424 + On portable OpenSSH, fix a GSSAPI authentication abort that could be
2425 used to determine the validity of usernames on some platforms.
2426 + Implemented conditional configuration in sshd_config(5) using the
2427 "Match" directive. This allows some configuration options to be
2428 selectively overridden if specific criteria (based on user, group,
2429 hostname and/or address) are met. So far a useful subset of
2430 post-authentication options are supported and more are expected to
2431 be added in future releases.
2432 + Add support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange key agreement with a
2433 final hash of SHA256.
2434 + Added a "ForceCommand" directive to sshd_config(5). Similar to the
2435 command="..." option accepted in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this forces
2436 the execution of the specified command regardless of what the user
2437 requested. This is very useful in conjunction with the new "Match"
2438 option.
2439 + Add a "PermitOpen" directive to sshd_config(5). This mirrors the
2440 permitopen="..." authorized_keys option, allowing fine-grained
2441 control over the port-forwardings that a user is allowed to
2442 establish.
2443 + Add optional logging of transactions to sftp-server(8).
2444 + ssh(1) will now record port numbers for hosts stored in
2445 ~/.ssh/known_hosts when a non-standard port has been requested
2446 (closes: #50612).
2447 + Add an "ExitOnForwardFailure" option to cause ssh(1) to exit (with a
2448 non-zero exit code) when requested port forwardings could not be
2449 established.
2450 + Extend sshd_config(5) "SubSystem" declarations to allow the
2451 specification of command-line arguments.
2452 + Replacement of all integer overflow susceptible invocations of
2453 malloc(3) and realloc(3) with overflow-checking equivalents.
2454 + Many manpage fixes and improvements.
2455 + Add optional support for OpenSSL hardware accelerators (engines),
2456 enabled using the --with-ssl-engine configure option.
2457 + Tokens in configuration files may be double-quoted in order to
2458 contain spaces (closes: #319639).
2459 + Move a debug() call out of a SIGCHLD handler, fixing a hang when the
2460 session exits very quickly (closes: #307890).
2461 + Fix some incorrect buffer allocation calculations (closes: #410599).
2462 + ssh-add doesn't ask for a passphrase if key file permissions are too
2463 liberal (closes: #103677).
2464 + Likewise, ssh doesn't ask either (closes: #99675).
2465 - 4.6/4.6p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.6):
2466 + sshd now allows the enabling and disabling of authentication methods
2467 on a per user, group, host and network basis via the Match directive
2468 in sshd_config.
2469 + Fixed an inconsistent check for a terminal when displaying scp
2470 progress meter (closes: #257524).
2471 + Fix "hang on exit" when background processes are running at the time
2472 of exit on a ttyful/login session (closes: #88337).
2473 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from
2474 http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/patches/openssh-4.6p1-gsskex-20070312.patch;
2475 install ChangeLog.gssapi.
2476 * Build the .deb --with-ssl-engine (closes: #408027, LP: #119295).
2477 * Use LSB functions in init scripts, and add an LSB-style header (partly
2478 from Ubuntu and partly thanks to Christian Perrier; closes: #389038).
2479 * Move init script start links to S16, move rc1 stop link to K84, and
2480 remove rc0 and rc6 stop links altogether (the last part from Ubuntu;
2481 closes: #122188).
2482 * Emit a slightly more informative message from the init script if
2483 /dev/null has somehow become not a character device (closes: #369964).
2484 * Belatedly build-depend on zlib1g-dev (>= 1:1.2.3-1) (closes: #333447).
2485 * Merge from Ubuntu:
2486 - Build position-independent executables (only for debs, not for udebs)
2487 to take advantage of address space layout randomisation.
2488 - If building on Ubuntu, add /sbin, /usr/sbin, and /usr/local/sbin to
2489 the default path.
2490 * Use ${binary:Version} rather than ${Source-Version} in openssh-server ->
2491 openssh-client dependency.

2561 [ Colin Watson ]
2562 * Drop versioning on ssh/ssh-krb5 Replaces, as otherwise it isn't
2563 sufficient to replace conffiles (closes: #402804).
2564 * Make GSSAPICleanupCreds a compatibility alias for
2565 GSSAPICleanupCredentials. Mark GSSUseSessionCCache and
2566 GSSAPIUseSessionCredCache as known-but-unsupported options, and migrate
2567 away from them on upgrade.
2568 * It turns out that the people who told me that removing a conffile in the
2569 preinst was sufficient to have dpkg replace it without prompting when
2570 moving a conffile between packages were very much mistaken. As far as I
2571 can tell, the only way to do this reliably is to write out the desired
2572 new text of the conffile in the preinst. This is gross, and requires
2573 shipping the text of all conffiles in the preinst too, but there's
2574 nothing for it. Fortunately this nonsense is only required for smooth
2575 upgrades from sarge.

2639 - CVE-2006-4924: Fix a pre-authentication denial of service found by

2641 time expired (closes: #389995).
2642 - CVE-2006-5051: Fix an unsafe signal hander reported by Mark Dowd. The
2643 signal handler was vulnerable to a race condition that could be
2644 exploited to perform a pre-authentication denial of service. On
2645 portable OpenSSH, this vulnerability could theoretically lead to

2691 * New upstream release (closes: #361032).
2692 - CVE-2006-0225: scp (as does rcp, on which it is based) invoked a
2693 subshell to perform local to local, and remote to remote copy
2694 operations. This subshell exposed filenames to shell expansion twice;
2695 allowing a local attacker to create filenames containing shell
2696 metacharacters that, if matched by a wildcard, could lead to execution
2697 of attacker-specified commands with the privilege of the user running
2698 scp (closes: #349645).
2699 - Add support for tunneling arbitrary network packets over a connection
2700 between an OpenSSH client and server via tun(4) virtual network
2701 interfaces. This allows the use of OpenSSH (4.3+) to create a true VPN
2702 between the client and server providing real network connectivity at
2703 layer 2 or 3. This feature is experimental.
2704 - Reduce default key length for new DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
2705 back to 1024 bits. DSA is not specified for longer lengths and does
2706 not fully benefit from simply making keys longer. As per FIPS 186-2
2707 Change Notice 1, ssh-keygen will refuse to generate a new DSA key
2708 smaller or larger than 1024 bits.
2709 - Fixed X forwarding failing to start when the X11 client is executed in
2710 background at the time of session exit.
2711 - Change ssh-keygen to generate a protocol 2 RSA key when invoked
2712 without arguments (closes: #114894).
2713 - Fix timing variance for valid vs. invalid accounts when attempting
2714 Kerberos authentication.
2715 - Ensure that ssh always returns code 255 on internal error
2716 (closes: #259865).
2717 - Cleanup wtmp files on SIGTERM when not using privsep.
2718 - Set SO_REUSEADDR on X11 listeners to avoid problems caused by
2719 lingering sockets from previous session (X11 applications can
2720 sometimes not connect to 127.0.0.1:60xx) (closes:
2721 https://launchpad.net/bugs/25528).
2722 - Ensure that fds 0, 1 and 2 are always attached in all programs, by
2723 duping /dev/null to them if necessary.
2724 - Xauth list invocation had bogus "." argument.
2725 - Remove internal assumptions on key exchange hash algorithm and output
2726 length, preparing OpenSSH for KEX methods with alternate hashes.
2727 - Ignore junk sent by a server before it sends the "SSH-" banner.
2728 - Many manual page improvements.
2729 - Lots of cleanups, including fixes to memory leaks on error paths and
2730 possible crashes.
2731 * Update to current GSSAPI patch from

2734 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
2735 * Restore pam_nologin to /etc/pam.d/ssh; sshd no longer checks this itself
2736 when PAM is enabled, but relies on PAM to do it.
2737 * Rename KeepAlive to TCPKeepAlive in default sshd_config
2738 (closes: #349896).

2775 to the normal and superuser paths and /usr/games to the normal path.
2776 * When the client receives a signal, don't fatal() with "Killed by signal
2777 %d." (which produces unhelpful noise on stderr and causes confusion for
2778 users of some applications that wrap ssh); instead, generate a debug
2779 message and exit with the traditional status (closes: #313371).

2837 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2797): Fix a bug introduced in OpenSSH 4.0 that
2838 caused GatewayPorts to be incorrectly activated for dynamic ("-D")
2839 port forwardings when no listen address was explicitly specified
2840 (closes: #326065).
2841 - SECURITY (CAN-2005-2798): Fix improper delegation of GSSAPI
2842 credentials. This code is only built in openssh-krb5, not openssh, but
2843 I mention the CVE reference here anyway for completeness.
2844 - Add a new compression method ("Compression delayed") that delays zlib
2845 compression until after authentication, eliminating the risk of zlib
2846 vulnerabilities being exploited by unauthenticated users. Note that
2847 users of OpenSSH versions earlier than 3.5 will need to disable
2848 compression on the client or set "Compression yes" (losing this
2849 security benefit) on the server.
2850 - Increase the default size of new RSA/DSA keys generated by ssh-keygen
2851 from 1024 to 2048 bits (closes: #181162).
2852 - Many bugfixes and improvements to connection multiplexing.

2854 * debian/rules: Resynchronise CFLAGS with that generated by configure.
2855 * openssh-client and openssh-server conflict with pre-split ssh to avoid
2856 problems when ssh is left un-upgraded (closes: #324695).
2857 * Set X11Forwarding to yes in the default sshd_config (new installs only).
2858 At least when X11UseLocalhost is turned on, which is the default, the
2859 security risks of using X11 forwarding are risks to the client, not to

2907 - Added SELinux capability, and turned it on be default. Added
2908 restorecon calls in preinst and postinst (should not matter if the
2909 machine is not SELinux aware). By and large, the changes made should
2910 have no effect unless the rules file calls --with-selinux; and even
2911 then there should be no performance hit for machines not actively
2912 running SELinux.
2913 - Modified the preinst and postinst to call restorecon to set the
2914 security context for the generated public key files.
2915 - Added a comment to /etc/pam.d/ssh to indicate that an SELinux system
2916 may want to also include pam_selinux.so.

2938 * Since ssh-keysign isn't used by default (you need to set
2939 EnableSSHKeysign to "yes" in /etc/ssh/ssh_config), having a debconf
2940 question to ask whether it should be setuid is overkill, and the

2978 forwardings when configured with "GatewayPorts clientspecified"
2979 (closes: #87253, #192206).
2980 - ssh and ssh-keyscan now support hashing of known_hosts files for
2981 improved privacy (CAN-2005-2666). ssh-keygen has new options for
2982 managing known_hosts files, which understand hashing.
2983 - sftp supports command history and editing support using libedit
2984 (closes: #287013).
2985 - Have scp and sftp wait for the spawned ssh to exit before they exit
2986 themselves, allowing ssh to restore terminal modes (closes: #257130).
2987 - Improved the handling of bad data in authorized_keys files,
2988 eliminating fatal errors on corrupt or very large keys; e.g. linefeeds
2989 in keys only produce errors in auth.log now (closes: #220726).

2997 - Link with -lcrypt.
2998 - Link with -lpthread rather than -pthread.
2999 - Don't build ssh-askpass-gnome on the Hurd, until GNOME is available to
3000 satisfy build-dependencies.
3001 * Drop workaround for #242462 on amd64; it's been fixed properly upstream.

3003 'ssh-keygen -H' to convert an entire known_hosts file to hashed format.

3118 * New transitional ssh package, priority optional, depending on
3119 openssh-client and openssh-server. May be removed once nothing depends

3121 * When upgrading from ssh to openssh-{client,server}, it's very difficult
3122 for the maintainer scripts to find out what version we're upgrading from
3123 without dodgy dpkg hackery. I've therefore taken the opportunity to move
3124 a couple of debconf notes into NEWS files, namely ssh/ssh2_keys_merged

3127 happens even though we don't know what version we're upgrading from.
3128 * Remove /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run on purge of openssh-server. For now
3129 (until sarge+2) it's still honoured to avoid breaking existing

3160 1:3.8.1p1-8.sarge.1" to "OpenSSH_3.8.1p1 Debian-8.sarge.1", as some SSH

3162 This is of course a bug in those implementations, but since the extent
3163 of the problem is unknown it's best to play safe (closes: #275731).

3300 * New upstream release (closes: #232281):
3301 - New PAM implementation based on that in FreeBSD. This runs PAM session
3302 modules before dropping privileges (closes: #132681, #150968).
3303 - Since PAM session modules are run as root, we can turn pam_limits back
3304 on by default, and it no longer spits out "Operation not permitted" to
3305 syslog (closes: #171673).
3306 - Password expiry works again (closes: #153235).
3307 - 'ssh -q' suppresses login banner (closes: #134589).
3308 - sshd doesn't lie to PAM about invalid usernames (closes: #157078).
3309 - ssh-add prints key comment on each prompt (closes: #181869).
3310 - Punctuation formatting fixed in man pages (closes: #191131).
3311 - EnableSSHKeysign documented in ssh_config(5) (closes: #224457).
3312 * Add 'UsePAM yes' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config on upgrade from versions older
3313 than this, to maintain the standard Debian sshd configuration.
3314 * Comment out PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt and RhostsAuthentication in
3315 sshd_config on upgrade. Neither option is supported any more.
3316 * Privilege separation and PAM are now properly supported together, so
3317 remove both debconf questions related to them and simply set it
3318 unconditionally in newly generated sshd_config files (closes: #228838).
3319 * ServerAliveInterval implemented upstream, so ProtocolKeepAlives is now a
3320 compatibility alias. The semantics differ slightly, though; see
3321 ssh_config(5) for details.
3322 * Implement SSH1 support for ServerAliveInterval using SSH_MSG_IGNORE. As
3323 documented in ssh_config(5), it's not as good as the SSH2 version.
3324 * Remove -fno-builtin-log, -DHAVE_MMAP_ANON_SHARED, and
3325 -D__FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 compiler options, which are no longer necessary.
3326 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20040105.1.
3327 * Darren Tucker:
3328 - Reset signal status when starting pam auth thread, prevent hanging
3329 during PAM keyboard-interactive authentications.

3505 - Reorganize into "UPGRADE ISSUES" and "OTHER ISSUES", in an effort to
3506 make it easier for people to find the former. The upgrade issues
3507 should probably be sorted by version somehow.

3540 * Add /etc/default/ssh (closes: #161049).
3541 * Run the init script under 'set -e' (closes: #175010).
3542 * Change the default superuser path to include /sbin, /usr/sbin, and
3543 /usr/local/sbin (closes: #128235, #151267). Using login.defs would be
3544 nice, but that belongs to another package. Without a defined API to
3545 retrieve its settings, parsing it is off-limits.
3546 * Build ssh-askpass-gnome with GNOME 2. The source package should still
3547 support building on stable with GNOME 1, using the alternate
3548 libgnome-dev build-dependency (thanks, Colin Walters; closes: #167582).

3554 * Point rlogin and rcp alternatives at slogin and scp respectively rather
3555 than ssh (closes: #121103, #151666). Fix alternative removal to match;
3556 previously it was completely wrong anyway.
3557 * Find out whether /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run exists and set the debconf
3558 question's default using that information, rather than using debconf as
3559 a registry. Other solutions may be better in the long run, but this is
3560 at least correct (thanks, Matthew Woodcraft; closes: #84725).
3561 * Stop using pam_lastlog, as it doesn't currently work well as a session
3562 module when privilege separation is enabled; it can usually read
3563 /var/log/lastlog but can't write to it. Instead, just use sshd's
3564 built-in support, already enabled by default (closes: #151297, #169938).
3565 * Use 'ssh-keygen -q' rather than redirecting output to /dev/null.
3566 * Add a "this may take some time" warning when creating host keys on
3567 installation (part of #110094).
3568 * When restarting via the init script, check for sshd_not_to_be_run after
3569 stopping sshd (idea from Tomas Pospisek; closes: #149850).
3570 * Append /usr/sbin:/sbin to the init script's $PATH, just in case of
3571 strangeness (closes: #115138).
3572 * Fix a dpkg-statoverride call to redirect stdout to /dev/null, not
3573 stderr.
3574 * Correct copyright file typo: "orignal" -> "original" (closes: #176490).
3575 * Rebuild with libssl0.9.7 (closes: #176983).
3576 * We're up to policy version 3.5.6. DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS stuff still needs to

3585 (closes: #150974).
3586 * Remove some duplication from the postinst's ssh-keysign setuid code.
3587 * Replace db_text with db_input throughout debian/config. (db_text has
3588 been a compatibility wrapper since debconf 0.1.5.)
3589 * Warn about PermitUserEnvironment on upgrade (closes: #167895).
3590 * Use 'make install-nokeys', and disable unused debhelper commands,
3591 thereby forward-porting the last pieces of Zack Weinberg's patch
3592 (closes: #68341).
3593 * Move the man page for gnome-ssh-askpass from the ssh package to
3594 ssh-askpass-gnome (closes: #174449).
3595 * Build with -DLOGIN_NO_ENDOPT, since Debian's /bin/login doesn't accept
3596 '--' to terminate the list of options (closes: #171554).
3597 * Add Jonathan Amery's ssh-argv0 script (closes: #111341).
3598 * Update Danish debconf template (thanks, Morten Brix Pedersen;
3599 closes: #174757).
3600 * Document setgid ssh-agent's effect on certain environment variables in
3601 README.Debian (closes: #167974).

3603 README.Debian, and suggest some workarounds (closes: #174662).

3617 * New upstream release.
3618 - Fixes typo in ssh-add usage (closes: #152239).
3619 - Fixes 'PermitRootLogin forced-commands-only' (closes: #166184).
3620 - ~/.ssh/environment and environment= options in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
3621 are deprecated for security reasons and will eventually go away. For
3622 now they can be re-enabled by setting 'PermitUserEnvironment yes' in
3623 sshd_config.
3624 - ssh-agent is installed setgid to prevent ptrace() attacks. The group
3625 actually doesn't matter, as it drops privileges immediately, but to
3626 avoid confusion the postinst creates a new 'ssh' group for it.
3627 * Obsolete patches:
3628 - Solar Designer's privsep+compression patch for Linux 2.2 (see
3629 1:3.3p1-0.0woody1).
3630 - Hostbased auth ssh-keysign backport (see 1:3.4p1-4).
3631
3632 * Remove duplicated phrase in ssh_config(5) (closes: #152404).
3633 * Source the debconf confmodule at the top of the postrm rather than at
3634 the bottom, to avoid making future non-idempotency problems worse (see
3635 #151035).
3636 * Debconf templates:
3637 - Add Polish (thanks, Grzegorz Kusnierz).
3638 - Update French (thanks, Denis Barbier; closes: #132509).
3639 - Update Spanish (thanks, Carlos Valdivia Yagüe; closes: #164716).
3640 * Write a man page for gnome-ssh-askpass, and link it to ssh-askpass.1 if
3641 this is the selected ssh-askpass alternative (closes: #67775).

4329 Given that this is also a trivial change, and is a reversal of a
4330 change that was mistakenly made after the freeze, I think this should
4331 also go into frozen.

4415 This bug was filed on "openssh", and I ended up
4416 creating my own patch for this (closes: #59054)
4417 * Improved error message when ssh_exchange_identification
4418 gets EOF (closes: #58904)
4419 * Fixed typo (your -> you're) in debian/preinst.
4420 * Added else-clauses to config to make this upgradepath possible:
4421 oldssh -> openssh preinst fails due to upgrade_to_openssh=false
4422 -> ssh-nonfree -> openssh. Without these, debconf remembered
4423 the old answer, config didn't force asking it, and preinst always
4424 aborted (closes: #56596, #57782)
4425 * Moved setting upgrade_to_openssh isdefault flag to the place
4426 where preinst would abort. This means no double question to most
4427 users, people who currently suffer from "can't upgrade" may need
4428 to run apt-get install ssh twice. Did not do the same for
4429 use_old_init_script, as the situation is a bit different, and
4430 less common (closes: #54010, #56224)
4431 * Check for existance of ssh-keygen before attempting to use it in
4432 preinst, added warning for non-existant ssh-keygen in config. This
4433 happens when the old ssh is removed (say, due to ssh-nonfree getting
4434 installed).
