2019-09-16upstream: Allow testing signature syntax and validity without verifyingdjm@openbsd.org
that a signature came from a trusted signer. To discourage accidental or unintentional use, this is invoked by the deliberately ugly option name "check-novalidate" from Sebastian Kinne OpenBSD-Commit-ID: cea42c36ab7d6b70890e2d8635c1b5b943adcc0b

2019-09-03upstream: sshsig: lightweight signature and verification abilitydjm@openbsd.org
for OpenSSH This adds a simple manual signature scheme to OpenSSH. Signatures can be made and verified using ssh-keygen -Y sign|verify Signatures embed the key used to make them. At verification time, this is matched via principal name against an authorized_keys-like list of allowed signers. Mostly by Sebastian Kinne w/ some tweaks by me ok markus@ OpenBSD-Commit-ID: 2ab568e7114c933346616392579d72be65a4b8fb

2019-07-15upstream: support PKCS8 as an optional format for storage ofdjm@openbsd.org
private keys, enabled via "ssh-keygen -m PKCS8" on operations that save private keys to disk. The OpenSSH native key format remains the default, but PKCS8 is a superior format to PEM if interoperability with non-OpenSSH software is required, as it may use a less terrible KDF (IIRC PEM uses a single round of MD5 as a KDF). adapted from patch by Jakub Jelen via bz3013; ok markus OpenBSD-Commit-ID: 027824e3bc0b1c243dc5188504526d73a55accb1
