1ssh (1:3.5p1-1) unstable; urgency=low
2
3 This version of OpenSSH disables the environment option for public keys by
4 default, in order to avoid certain attacks (for example, LD_PRELOAD). If
5 you are using this option in an authorized_keys file, beware that the keys
6 in question will no longer work until the option is removed.
7
8 To re-enable this option, set "PermitUserEnvironment yes" in
9 /etc/ssh/sshd_config after the upgrade is complete, taking note of the
10 warning in the sshd_config(5) manual page.
