2017-10-04Restore 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.

When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an authorized keys/principals command= restriction, refuse to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced- command override the other could be a bit confused and more error-prone.

Add a new authorized_keys option "restrict" that includes all current and future key restrictions (no-*-forwarding, etc). Also add permissive versions of the existing restrictions, e.g. "no-pty" -> "pty". This simplifies the task of setting up restricted keys and ensures they are maximally-restricted, regardless of any permissions we might implement in the future. Example: restrict,pty,command="nethack" ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1... Idea from Jann Horn; ok markus@ Upstream-ID: 04ceb9d448e46e67e13887a7ae5ea45b4f1719d0

Reduce instances of `` '' in manuals. troff displays these as typographic quotes, but nroff implementations almost always print them literally, which rarely has the intended effect with modern fonts, even in stock xterm. These uses of `` '' can be replaced either with more semantic alternatives or with Dq, which prints typographic quotes in a UTF-8 locale (but will automatically fall back to `` '' in an ASCII locale). improvements and ok schwarze@

[auth-options.c auth-options.h auth.c auth.h auth2-pubkey.c] [key.c servconf.c servconf.h sshd.8 sshd_config.5] add some optional indirection to matching of principal names listed in certificates. Currently, a certificate must include the a user's name to be accepted for authentication. This change adds the ability to specify a list of certificate principal names that are acceptable. When authenticating using a CA trusted through ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, this adds a new principals="name1[,name2,...]" key option. For CAs listed through sshd_config's TrustedCAKeys option, a new config option "AuthorizedPrincipalsFile" specifies a per-user file containing the list of acceptable names. If either option is absent, the current behaviour of requiring the username to appear in principals continues to apply. These options are useful for role accounts, disjoint account namespaces and "user@realm"-style naming policies in certificates. feedback and ok markus@

CA keys are regular SSH keys. This certificate style avoids the attack surface of X.509 certificates and is very easy to deploy. Certified host keys allow automatic acceptance of new host keys when a CA certificate is marked as sh/known_hosts. see VERIFYING HOST KEYS in ssh(1) for details. Certified user keys allow authentication of users when the signing CA key is marked as trusted in authorized_keys. See "AUTHORIZED_KEYS FILE FORMAT" in sshd(8) for details.
