2014-10-07Merge 6.7p1.Colin Watson
* New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.7): - sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour* are disabled by default. The full set of algorithms remains available if configured explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options. - ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding. A remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket and vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket (closes: #236718). - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for ED25519 key types. - sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads. - ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it is the same as the one sent during initial key exchange. - sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind addresses when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address family. - sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether ~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys option. - ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath that expands to a unique identifer based on a hash of the tuple of (local host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding miserly pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing control paths. - sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message include the user, source address, port and protocol in a format similar to the authentication success / failure messages. - Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly (closes: #734553). - Use prctl() to prevent sftp-server from accessing /proc/self/{mem,maps}. * Restore TCP wrappers support, removed upstream in 6.7. It is true that dropping this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze. * Replace patch to disable OpenSSL version check with an updated version of Kurt Roeckx's patch from #732940 to just avoid checking the status field.

2014-10-07Don't check the status field of the OpenSSL versionKurt Roeckx
There is no reason to check the version of OpenSSL (in Debian). If it's not compatible the soname will change. OpenSSH seems to want to do a check for the soname based on the version number, but wants to keep the status of the release the same. Remove that check on the status since it doesn't tell you anything about how compatible that version is.

2014-10-07ssh(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).

2014-10-07Allow 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.

2014-10-07Reduce 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.

2014-10-07"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.

2014-10-07Various 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.

2014-10-07Handle 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.

2014-10-07Restore TCP wrappers supportColin Watson
Support for TCP wrappers was dropped in OpenSSH 6.7. See this message and thread: https://lists.mindrot.org/pipermail/openssh-unix-dev/2014-April/032497.html It is true that this reduces preauth attack surface in sshd. On the other hand, this support seems to be quite widely used, and abruptly dropping it (from the perspective of users who don't read openssh-unix-dev) could easily cause more serious problems in practice. It's not entirely clear what the right long-term answer for Debian is, but it at least probably doesn't involve dropping this feature shortly before a freeze.

2014-10-07GSSAPI 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: 2014-10-07 Patch-Name: gssapi.patch
