Changelog for gsi-openssh-6.1p1-4.1.x86_64.rpm :
Tue Jan 8 13:00:00 2013 dmuellerAATTsuse.com
- use ssh-keygen(1) default keylengths in generating the host key
instead of hardcoding it

Tue Nov 13 13:00:00 2012 meissnerAATTsuse.com
- Updated to 6.1p1, a bugfix release
Features:

* sshd(8): This release turns on pre-auth sandboxing sshd by default for
new installs, by setting UsePrivilegeSeparation=sandbox in sshd_config.

* ssh-keygen(1): Add options to specify starting line number and number of
lines to process when screening moduli candidates, allowing processing
of different parts of a candidate moduli file in parallel

* sshd(8): The Match directive now supports matching on the local (listen)
address and port upon which the incoming connection was received via
LocalAddress and LocalPort clauses.

* sshd(8): Extend sshd_config Match directive to allow setting AcceptEnv
and {Allow,Deny}{Users,Groups}

* Add support for RFC6594 SSHFP DNS records for ECDSA key types. bz#1978

* ssh-keygen(1): Allow conversion of RSA1 keys to public PEM and PKCS8

* sshd(8): Allow the sshd_config PermitOpen directive to accept \"none\" as
an argument to refuse all port-forwarding requests.

* sshd(8): Support \"none\" as an argument for AuthorizedPrincipalsFile

* ssh-keyscan(1): Look for ECDSA keys by default. bz#1971

* sshd(8): Add \"VersionAddendum\" to sshd_config to allow server operators
to append some arbitrary text to the server SSH protocol banner.
Bugfixes:

* ssh(1)/sshd(8): Don\'t spin in accept() in situations of file
descriptor exhaustion. Instead back off for a while.

* ssh(1)/sshd(8): Remove hmac-sha2-256-96 and hmac-sha2-512-96 MACs as
they were removed from the specification. bz#2023,

* sshd(8): Handle long comments in config files better. bz#2025

* ssh(1): Delay setting tty_flag so RequestTTY options are correctly
picked up. bz#1995

* sshd(8): Fix handling of /etc/nologin incorrectly being applied to root
on platforms that use login_cap.
Portable OpenSSH:

* sshd(8): Allow sshd pre-auth sandboxing to fall-back to the rlimit
sandbox from the Linux SECCOMP filter sandbox when the latter is
not available in the kernel.

* ssh(1): Fix NULL dereference when built with LDNS and using DNSSEC to
retrieve a CNAME SSHFP record.

* Fix cross-compilation problems related to pkg-config. bz#1996

- Update to 5.7p1

* Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH)
and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656.

* sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard
link operation.

* scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts
are transferred through the local host.

* ssh(1): automatically order the hostkeys requested by the client
based on which hostkeys are already recorded in known_hosts.

* ssh(1)/sshd(8): add a new IPQoS option to specify arbitrary
TOS/DSCP/QoS values instead of hardcoding lowdelay/throughput.

* sftp(1): the sftp client is now significantly faster at performing
directory listings, using OpenBSD glob(3) extensions to preserve
the results of stat(3) operations performed in the course of its
execution rather than performing expensive round trips to fetch
them again afterwards.

* ssh(1): \"atomically\" create the listening mux socket by binding it on
a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has
succeeded.

* ssh(1)/sshd(8): add a KexAlgorithms knob to the client and server
configuration to allow selection of which key exchange methods are
used by ssh(1) and sshd(8) and their order of preference.

* sftp(1)/scp(1): factor out bandwidth limiting code from scp(1) into
a generic bandwidth limiter that can be attached using the atomicio
callback mechanism and use it to add a bandwidth limit option to
sftp(1).

* Support building against openssl-1.0.0a.

* Bug fixes.
- Remove patches that are now upstream:

* openssh-5.6p1-tmpdir.diff

* openssh-linux-new-oomkill.patch
- Add upstream patch to fix build with SELinux enabled.

Tue Aug 24 14:00:00 2010 anickaAATTsuse.cz
- update to 5.6p1

* Added a ControlPersist option to ssh_config(5) that automatically
starts a background ssh(1) multiplex master when connecting.

* Hostbased authentication may now use certificate host keys.

* ssh-keygen(1) now supports signing certificate using a CA key that
has been stored in a PKCS#11 token.

* ssh(1) will now log the hostname and address that we connected to at
LogLevel=verbose after authentication is successful to mitigate
\"phishing\" attacks by servers with trusted keys that accept
authentication silently and automatically before presenting fake
password/passphrase prompts.

* Expand %h to the hostname in ssh_config Hostname options.

* Allow ssh-keygen(1) to import (-i) and export (-e) of PEM and PKCS#8
keys in addition to RFC4716 (SSH.COM) encodings via a new -m option

* sshd(8) will now queue debug messages for bad ownership or
permissions on the user\'s keyfiles encountered during authentication
and will send them after authentication has successfully completed.

* ssh(1) connection multiplexing now supports remote forwarding with
dynamic port allocation and can report the allocated port back to
the user

* sshd(8) now supports indirection in matching of principal names
listed in certificates.

* sshd(8) now has a new AuthorizedPrincipalsFile option to specify a
file containing a list of names that may be accepted in place of the
username when authorizing a certificate trusted via the
sshd_config(5) TrustedCAKeys option.

* Additional sshd_config(5) options are now valid inside Match blocks

* Revised the format of certificate keys.

users for further host hopping).

Tue Mar 23 13:00:00 2010 anickaAATTsuse.cz
- update to 5.4p1

* After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables
SSH protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the
legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config
or on the command-line.

* Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for
PKCS#11 tokens. This support is automatically enabled on all
platforms that support dlopen(3) and was inspired by patches written
by Alon Bar-Lev. Details in the ssh(1) and ssh-add(1) manpages.

* Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a
new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (not X.509). Certificates
contain a public key, identity information and some validity
constraints and are signed with a standard SSH public key using
ssh-keygen(1). CA keys may be marked as trusted in authorized_keys
or via a TrustedUserCAKeys option in sshd_config(5) (for user
authentication), or in known_hosts (for host authentication).
Documentation for certificate support may be found in ssh-keygen(1),
sshd(8) and ssh(1) and a description of the protocol extensions in
PROTOCOL.certkeys.

* Added a \'netcat mode\' to ssh(1): \"ssh -W host:port ...\" This connects
stdio on the client to a single port forward on the server. This
allows, for example, using ssh as a ProxyCommand to route connections
via intermediate servers. bz#1618

* Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). User keys may
be revoked using a new sshd_config(5) option \"RevokedKeys\". Host keys
are revoked through known_hosts (details in the sshd(8) man page).
Revoked keys cannot be used for user or host authentication and will
trigger a warning if used.

* Rewrite the ssh(1) multiplexing support to support non-blocking
operation of the mux master, improve the resilience of the master to
malformed messages sent to it by the slave and add support for
requesting port- forwardings via the multiplex protocol. The new
stdio-to-local forward mode (\"ssh -W host:port ...\") is also
supported. The revised multiplexing protocol is documented in the
file PROTOCOL.mux in the source distribution.

* Add a \'read-only\' mode to sftp-server(8) that disables open in write
mode and all other fs-modifying protocol methods. bz#430

* Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to
override whatever default the user has. bz#1229

* Many improvements to the sftp(1) client, many of which were
implemented by Carlos Silva through the Google Summer of Code
program:
- Support the \"-h\" (human-readable units) flag for ls
- Implement tab-completion of commands, local and remote filenames
- Support most of scp(1)\'s commandline arguments in sftp(1), as a
first step towards making sftp(1) a drop-in replacement for scp(1).
Note that the rarely-used \"-P sftp_server_path\" option has been
moved to \"-D sftp_server_path\" to make way for \"-P port\" to match
scp(1).
- Add recursive transfer support for get/put and on the commandline

* New RSA keys will be generated with a public exponent of RSA_F4 ==
(2
*
*16)+1 == 65537 instead of the previous value 35.

* Passphrase-protected SSH protocol 2 private keys are now protected
with AES-128 instead of 3DES. This applied to newly-generated keys
as well as keys that are reencrypted (e.g. by changing their
passphrase).
