Fri Apr 11 14:00:00 2014 pcernyAATTsuse.com
- update to 6.6p1
Security:

* sshd(8): when using environment passing with a sshd_config(5)
AcceptEnv pattern with a wildcard. OpenSSH prior to 6.6 could
be tricked into accepting any enviornment variable that
contains the characters before the wildcard character.
Features since 6.5p1:

* ssh(1), sshd(8): removal of the J-PAKE authentication code,
which was experimental, never enabled and has been
unmaintained for some time.

* ssh(1): skip \'exec\' clauses other clauses predicates failed
to match while processing Match blocks.

* ssh(1): if hostname canonicalisation is enabled and results
in the destination hostname being changed, then re-parse
ssh_config(5) files using the new destination hostname. This
gives \'Host\' and \'Match\' directives that use the expanded
hostname a chance to be applied.
Bugfixes:

* ssh(1): avoid spurious \"getsockname failed: Bad file
descriptor\" in ssh -W. bz#2200, debian#738692

* sshd(8): allow the shutdown(2) syscall in seccomp-bpf and
systrace sandbox modes, as it is reachable if the connection
is terminated during the pre-auth phase.

* ssh(1), sshd(8): fix unsigned overflow that in SSH protocol 1
bignum parsing. Minimum key length checks render this bug
unexploitable to compromise SSH 1 sessions.

* sshd_config(5): clarify behaviour of a keyword that appears
in multiple matching Match blocks. bz#2184

* ssh(1): avoid unnecessary hostname lookups when
canonicalisation is disabled. bz#2205

* sshd(8): avoid sandbox violation crashes in GSSAPI code by
caching the supported list of GSSAPI mechanism OIDs before
entering the sandbox. bz#2107

* ssh(1): fix possible crashes in SOCKS4 parsing caused by
assumption that the SOCKS username is nul-terminated.

* ssh(1): fix regression for UsePrivilegedPort=yes when
BindAddress is not specified.

* ssh(1), sshd(8): fix memory leak in ECDSA signature
verification.

* ssh(1): fix matching of \'Host\' directives in ssh_config(5)
files to be case-insensitive again (regression in 6.5).

Wed Feb 12 13:00:00 2014 pcernyAATTsuse.com
- Update to 6.5p1
Features since 6.4p1:

* ssh(1), sshd(8): support for key exchange using ECDH in
Daniel Bernstein\'s Curve25519; default when both the client
and server support it.

* ssh(1), sshd(8): support for Ed25519 as a public key type fo
rboth server and client. Ed25519 is an EC signature offering
better security than ECDSA and DSA and good performance.

* Add a new private key format that uses a bcrypt KDF to better
protect keys at rest. Used unconditionally for Ed25519 keys,
on demand for other key types via the -o ssh-keygen(1)
option. Intended to become default in the near future.
Details documented in PROTOCOL.key.

* ssh(1), sshd(8): new transport cipher
\"chacha20-poly1305AATTopenssh.com\" combining Daniel Bernstein\'s
ChaCha20 stream cipher and Poly1305 MAC to build an
authenticated encryption mode. Details documented
PROTOCOL.chacha20poly1305.

* ssh(1), sshd(8): refuse RSA keys from old proprietary clients
and servers that use the obsolete RSA+MD5 signature scheme.
It will still be possible to connect with these
clients/servers but only DSA keys will be accepted, and
OpenSSH will refuse connection entirely in a future release.

* ssh(1), sshd(8): refuse old proprietary clients and servers
that use a weaker key exchange hash calculation.

* ssh(1): increase the size of the Diffie-Hellman groups
requested for each symmetric key size. New values from NIST
Special Publication 800-57 with the upper limit specified by
RFC4419.

* ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): support pkcs#11 tokens that only
provide X.509 certs instead of raw public keys (requested as
bz#1908).

* ssh(1): new ssh_config(5) \"Match\" keyword that allows
conditional configuration to be applied by matching on
hostname, user and result of arbitrary commands.

* ssh(1): support for client-side hostname canonicalisation
using a set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5). This
allows unqualified names to be canonicalised to
fully-qualified domain names to eliminate ambiguity when
looking up keys in known_hosts or checking host certificate
names.

* sftp-server(8): ability to whitelist and/or blacklist sftp
protocol requests by name.

* sftp-server(8): sftp \"fsyncAATTopenssh.com\" to support calling
fsync(2) on an open file handle.

* sshd(8): ssh_config(5) PermitTTY to disallow TTY allocation,
mirroring the longstanding no-pty authorized_keys option.

* ssh(1): ssh_config ProxyUseFDPass option that supports the
use of ProxyCommands that establish a connection and then
pass a connected file descriptor back to ssh(1). This allows
the ProxyCommand to exit rather than staying around to
transfer data.
Bugfixes since 6.4p1:

* ssh(1), sshd(8): fix potential stack exhaustion caused by
nested certificates.

* ssh(1): bz#1211: make BindAddress work with
UsePrivilegedPort.

* sftp(1): bz#2137: fix the progress meter for resumed
transfer.

* ssh-add(1): bz#2187: do not request smartcard PIN when
removing keys from ssh-agent.

* sshd(8): bz#2139: fix re-exec fallback when original sshd
binary cannot be executed.

* ssh-keygen(1): make relative-specified certificate expiry
times relative to current time and not the validity start
time.

* sshd(8): bz#2161: fix AuthorizedKeysCommand inside a Match
block.

* sftp(1): bz#2129: symlinking a file would incorrectly
canonicalise the target path.

* ssh-agent(1): bz#2175: fix a use-after-free in the PKCS#11
agent helper executable.

* sshd(8): improve logging of sessions to include the user
name, remote host and port, the session type (shell, command,
etc.) and allocated TTY (if any).

* sshd(8): bz#1297: tell the client (via a debug message) when
their preferred listen address has been overridden by the
server\'s GatewayPorts setting.

* sshd(8): bz#2162: include report port in bad protocol banner
message.

* sftp(1): bz#2163: fix memory leak in error path in
do_readdir().

* sftp(1): bz#2171: don\'t leak file descriptor on error.

* sshd(8): include the local address and port in \"Connection
from ...\" message (only shown at loglevel>=verbose).
- systemd systems

* create sysconfig file on systemd systems as well, yet do not
require it at run-time (bnc#862600)

* symlink rcsshd to /usr/bin/service

* ssh-agent(1) support in sshd(8); allows encrypted hostkeys, or
hostkeys on smartcards.

second argument to the existing RekeyLimit option. RekeyLimit
is now supported in sshd_config as well as on the client.

* sshd(8): standardise logging of information during user
authentication.

* The presented key/cert and the remote username (if available)
is now logged in the authentication success/failure message on
the same log line as the local username, remote host/port and
protocol in use. Certificates contents and the key
fingerprint of the signing CA are logged too.

* ssh(1) ability to query what cryptographic algorithms are
supported in the binary.

* ssh(1): ProxyCommand=- for cases where stdin and stdout
already point to the proxy.

* ssh(1): allow IdentityFile=none

* ssh(1)/sshd(8): -E option to append debugging logs to a
specified file instead of stderr or syslog.

command and on the sftp commandline or on the \"get\"
commandline with the \"-a\" (append) option.

* ssh(1): \"IgnoreUnknown\" configuration option to selectively
suppress errors arising from unknown configuration directives.

* sshd(8): support for submethods to be appended to required
authentication methods listed via AuthenticationMethods.
Bugfixes since 6.2p2:

* sshd(8): fix refusal to accept certificate if a key of a
different type to the CA key appeared in authorized_keys
before the CA key.

* ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1)/sshd(8): Use a monotonic time source for
timers so that things like keepalives and rekeying will work
properly over clock steps.

* sftp(1): update progressmeter when data is acknowledged, not
when it\'s sent. bz#2108

* ssh(1)/ssh-keygen(1): improve error messages when the current
user does not exist in /etc/passwd; bz#2125

* ssh(1): reset the order in which public keys are tried after
partial authentication success.

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

* 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.

- 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).
