+openssh (1:9.7p1-6) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium
+
+ Debian's PAM configuration for OpenSSH no longer reads the
+ ~/.pam_environment file. The implementation of this in pam_env has a
+ history of security problems and has been deprecated by the upstream
+ Linux-PAM maintainers due to the possibility that "user supplied
+ environment variables in the PAM environment could affect behavior of
+ subsequent modules in the stack without the consent of the system
+ administrator".
+
+ Instead, environment variables need to be set somewhere that will be
+ handled by the session process; for most users, this will be shell
+ initialization files such as ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc.
