2014-03-26Attempt SSHFP lookup even if server presents a certificateMatthew Vernon
If an ssh server presents a certificate to the client, then the client does not check the DNS for SSHFP records. This means that a malicious server can essentially disable DNS-host-key-checking, which means the client will fall back to asking the user (who will just say "yes" to the fingerprint, sadly). This patch is by Damien Miller (of openssh upstream). It's simpler than the patch by Mark Wooding which I applied yesterday; a copy is taken of the proffered key/cert, the key extracted from the cert (if necessary), and then the DNS consulted.

2014-03-25Attempt SSHFP lookup even if server presents a certificateMatthew Vernon
If an ssh server presents a certificate to the client, then the client does not check the DNS for SSHFP records. This means that a malicious server can essentially disable DNS-host-key-checking, which means the client will fall back to asking the user (who will just say "yes" to the fingerprint, sadly). This patch means that the ssh client will, if necessary, extract the server key from the proffered certificate, and attempt to verify it against the DNS. The patch was written by Mark Wooding <mdw@distorted.org.uk>. I modified it to add one debug2 call, reviewed it, and tested it.

2014-03-20Various Debian-specific configuration changesColin Watson
ssh: Enable ForwardX11Trusted, returning to earlier semantics which cause fewer problems with existing setups (http://bugs.debian.org/237021). ssh: Set 'SendEnv LANG LC_*' by default (http://bugs.debian.org/264024). ssh: Enable HashKnownHosts by default to try to limit the spread of ssh worms. ssh: Enable GSSAPIAuthentication and disable GSSAPIDelegateCredentials by default. sshd: Refer to /usr/share/doc/openssh-server/README.Debian.gz alongside PermitRootLogin default. Document all of this, along with several sshd defaults set in debian/openssh-server.postinst.

2014-03-20ssh(1): Refer to ssh-argv0(1)Colin Watson
Old versions of OpenSSH (up to 2.5 or thereabouts) allowed creating symlinks to ssh with the name of the host you want to connect to. Debian ships an ssh-argv0 script restoring this feature; this patch refers to its manual page from ssh(1).

2014-03-20Include the Debian version in our identificationMatthew Vernon
This makes it easier to audit networks for versions patched against security vulnerabilities. It has little detrimental effect, as attackers will generally just try attacks rather than bothering to scan for vulnerable-looking version strings. (However, see debian-banner.patch.)

2014-03-20Allow harmless group-writabilityColin Watson
Allow secure files (~/.ssh/config, ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, etc.) to be group-writable, provided that the group in question contains only the file's owner. Rejected upstream for IMO incorrect reasons (e.g. a misunderstanding about the contents of gr->gr_mem). Given that per-user groups and umask 002 are the default setup in Debian (for good reasons - this makes operating in setgid directories with other groups much easier), we need to permit this by default.

2014-03-20Reduce severity of "Killed by signal %d"Peter Samuelson
This produces irritating messages when using ProxyCommand or other programs that use ssh under the covers (e.g. Subversion). These messages are more normally printed by the calling program, such as the shell. According to the upstream bug, the right way to avoid this is to use the -q option, so we may drop this patch after further investigation into whether any software in Debian is still relying on it.

2014-03-20"LogLevel SILENT" compatibilityJonathan David Amery
"LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) was introduced in Debian openssh 1:3.0.1p1-1 to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not suppress fatal errors. However, this was unintentionally broken in 1:4.6p1-2 and nobody complained, so we've dropped most of it. The parts that remain are basic configuration file compatibility, and an adjustment to "Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated ..." which should be split out into a separate patch.

2014-03-20Various keepalive extensionsRichard Kettlewell
Add compatibility aliases for ProtocolKeepAlives and SetupTimeOut, supported in previous versions of Debian's OpenSSH package but since superseded by ServerAliveInterval. (We're probably stuck with this bit for compatibility.) In batch mode, default ServerAliveInterval to five minutes. Adjust documentation to match and to give some more advice on use of keepalives.

These options were used as part of Debian's response to CVE-2008-0166. Nearly six years later, we no longer need to continue carrying the bulk of that patch, but we do need to avoid failing when the associated configuration options are still present.

2014-03-20Handle SELinux authorisation rolesManoj Srivastava
Rejected upstream due to discomfort with magic usernames; a better approach will need an SSH protocol change. In the meantime, this came from Debian's SELinux maintainer, so we'll keep it until we have something better. Bug: https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1641 Bug-Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/394795 Last-Update: 2013-09-14 Patch-Name: selinux-role.patch
2014-03-20GSSAPI key exchange supportSimon Wilkinson
This patch has been rejected upstream: "None of the OpenSSH developers are in favour of adding this, and this situation has not changed for several years. This is not a slight on Simon's patch, which is of fine quality, but just that a) we don't trust GSSAPI implementations that much and b) we don't like adding new KEX since they are pre-auth attack surface. This one is particularly scary, since it requires hooks out to typically root-owned system resources." However, quite a lot of people rely on this in Debian, and it's better to have it merged into the main openssh package rather than having separate -krb5 packages (as we used to have). It seems to have a generally good security history. Bug: https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1242 Last-Updated: 2014-03-19 Patch-Name: gssapi.patch
