This attack allows a MITM to effect + a limited break of the integrity of the early encrypted SSH transport + protocol by sending extra messages prior to the commencement of + encryption, and deleting an equal number of consecutive messages + immediately after encryption starts. A peer SSH client/server would + not be able to detect that messages were deleted. + - [CVE-2023-51384] ssh-agent(1): when adding PKCS#11-hosted private keys + while specifying destination constraints, if the PKCS#11 token + returned multiple keys then only the first key had the constraints + applied. Use of regular private keys, FIDO tokens and unconstrained + keys are unaffected. + - [CVE-2023-51385] ssh(1): if an invalid user or hostname that contained + shell metacharacters was passed to ssh(1), and a ProxyCommand, + LocalCommand directive or "match exec" predicate referenced the user + or hostname via %u, %h or similar expansion token, then an attacker + who could supply arbitrary user/hostnames to ssh(1) could potentially + perform command injection depending on what quoting was present in the + user-supplied ssh_config(5) directive. OpenSSH 9.6 now bans most shell + metacharacters from user and hostnames supplied via the command-line. + - ssh(1), sshd(8): the RFC4254 connection/channels protocol provides a + TCP-like window mechanism that limits the amount of data that can be + sent without acceptance from the peer. In cases where this limit was + exceeded by a non-conforming peer SSH implementation, ssh(1)/sshd(8) + previously discarded the extra data. From OpenSSH 9.6, ssh(1)/sshd(8) + will now terminate the connection if a peer exceeds the window limit + by more than a small grace factor. This change should have no effect + of SSH implementations that follow the specification. + - ssh(1): add a %j token that expands to the configured ProxyJump + hostname (or the empty string if this option is not being used) that + can be used in a number of ssh_config(5) keywords. + - ssh(1): add ChannelTimeout support to the client, mirroring the same + option in the server and allowing ssh(1) to terminate quiescent + channels. + - ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): add support for reading + ED25519 private keys in PEM PKCS8 format. Previously only the OpenSSH + private key format was supported. + - ssh(1), sshd(8): introduce a protocol extension to allow renegotiation + of acceptable signature algorithms for public key authentication after + the server has learned the username being used for authentication. + This allows varying sshd_config(5) PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms in a + "Match user" block. + - ssh-add(1), ssh-agent(1): add an agent protocol extension to allow + specifying certificates when loading PKCS#11 keys. This allows the use + of certificates backed by PKCS#11 private keys in all OpenSSH tools + that support ssh-agent(1). Previously only ssh(1) supported this + use-case. + - ssh(1): when deciding whether to enable the keystroke timing + obfuscation, enable it only if a channel with a TTY is active. + - ssh(1): switch mainloop from poll(3) to ppoll(3) and mask signals + before checking flags set in signal handler. Avoids potential race + condition between signaling ssh to exit and polling. + - ssh(1): when connecting to a destination with both the AddressFamily + and CanonicalizeHostname directives in use, the AddressFamily + directive could be ignored. + - sftp(1): correct handling of the limits@openssh.com option when the + server returned an unexpected message. + - ssh(1): release GSS OIDs only at end of authentication, avoiding + unnecessary init/cleanup cycles. + - ssh_config(5): mention "none" is a valid argument to IdentityFile in + the manual. + - scp(1): improved debugging for paths from the server rejected for not + matching the client's glob(3) pattern in old SCP/RCP protocol mode. + - ssh-agent(1): refuse signing operations on destination-constrained + keys if a previous session-bind operation has failed. This may prevent + a fail-open situation in future if a user uses a mismatched ssh(1) + client and ssh-agent(1) where the client supports a key type that the + agent does not support. + * debian/run-tests: Supply absolute paths to tools. + * debian/run-tests: Enable interop tests for Dropbear. + + -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> Mon, 18 Dec 2023 22:35:25 +0000 + +openssh (1:9.5p1-2) unstable; urgency=medium + + * Upload to unstable. + + -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> Sat, 25 Nov 2023 16:16:04 +0000 + +openssh (1:9.5p1-1) experimental; urgency=medium + + * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/releasenotes.html#9.5p1): + - ssh-keygen(1): generate Ed25519 keys by default. Ed25519 public keys + are very convenient due to their small size. Ed25519 keys are + specified in RFC 8709 and OpenSSH has supported them since version 6.5 + (January 2014). + - sshd(8): the Subsystem directive now accurately preserves quoting of + subsystem commands and arguments. This may change behaviour for exotic + configurations, but the most common subsystem configuration + (sftp-server) is unlikely to be affected. + - ssh(1): add keystroke timing obfuscation to the client. This attempts + to hide inter-keystroke timings by sending interactive traffic at + fixed intervals (default: every 20ms) when there is only a small + amount of data being sent. It also sends fake "chaff" keystrokes for a + random interval after the last real keystroke. These are controlled by + a new ssh_config ObscureKeystrokeTiming keyword. + - ssh(1), sshd(8): Introduce a transport-level ping facility. This adds + a pair of SSH transport protocol messages SSH2_MSG_PING/PONG to + implement a ping capability. These messages use numbers in the "local + extensions" number space and are advertised using a "ping@openssh.com" + ext-info message with a string version number of "0". + - sshd(8): allow override of Subsystem directives in sshd Match blocks. + - scp(1): fix scp in SFTP mode recursive upload and download of + directories that contain symlinks to other directories. In scp mode, + the links would be followed, but in SFTP mode they were not. + - ssh-keygen(1): handle cr+lf (instead of just cr) line endings in + sshsig signature files. + - ssh(1): interactive mode for ControlPersist sessions if they + originally requested a tty. + - sshd(8): make PerSourceMaxStartups first-match-wins. + - sshd(8): limit artificial login delay to a reasonable maximum (5s) and + don't delay at all for the "none" authentication mechanism. + - sshd(8): Log errors in kex_exchange_identification() with level + verbose instead of error to reduce preauth log spam. All of those get + logged with a more generic error message by sshpkt_fatal(). + - sshd(8): correct math for ClientAliveInterval that caused the probes + to be sent less frequently than configured. + - ssh(1): fix regression in OpenSSH 9.4 (mux.c r1.99) that caused + multiplexed sessions to ignore SIGINT under some circumstances. + * Build-depend on dh-sequence-movetousr. + * Report DebianBanner setting in "sshd -G/-T" output (thanks, Rasmus + Villemoes; closes: #1053555). + + -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> Thu, 23 Nov 2023 17:38:07 +0000 + +openssh (1:9.4p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium + + * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/releasenotes.html#9.4p1): + - ssh-agent(1): PKCS#11 modules must now be specified by their full + paths. Previously dlopen(3) could search for them in system library + directories. + - ssh(1): allow forwarding Unix Domain sockets via ssh -W. + - ssh(1): add support for configuration tags to ssh(1). This adds a + ssh_config(5) "Tag" directive and corresponding "Match tag" predicate + that may be used to select blocks of configuration similar to the + pf.conf(5) keywords of the same name. + - ssh(1): add a "match localnetwork" predicate. This allows matching on + the addresses of available network interfaces and may be used to vary + the effective client configuration based on network location. + - ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-keygen(1): infrastructure support for KRL + extensions. This defines wire formats for optional KRL extensions and + implements parsing of the new submessages. No actual extensions are + supported at this point. + - sshd(8): AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand and AuthorizedKeysCommand now + accept two additional %-expansion sequences: %D which expands to the + routing domain of the connected session and %C which expands to the + addresses and port numbers for the source and destination of the + connection. + - ssh-keygen(1): increase the default work factor (rounds) for the + bcrypt KDF used to derive symmetric encryption keys for passphrase + protected key files by 50%. + - ssh-agent(1): improve isolation between loaded PKCS#11 modules by + running separate ssh-pkcs11-helpers for each loaded provider. + - ssh(1): make -f (fork after authentication) work correctly with + multiplexed connections, including ControlPersist (closes: #348741). + - ssh(1): make ConnectTimeout apply to multiplexing sockets and not just + to network connections. + - ssh-agent(1), ssh(1): improve defences against invalid PKCS#11 modules + being loaded by checking that the requested module contains the + required symbol before loading it. + - sshd(8): fix AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand when AuthorizedKeysCommand + appears before it in sshd_config. Since OpenSSH 8.7 the + AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand directive was incorrectly ignored in this + situation. + - sshd(8), ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): remove vestigial support for KRL + signatures. When the KRL format was originally defined, it included + support for signing of KRL objects. However, the code to sign KRLs and + verify KRL signatues was never completed in OpenSSH. This release + removes the partially-implemented code to verify KRLs. All OpenSSH + tools now ignore KRL_SECTION_SIGNATURE sections in KRL files. + - All: fix a number of memory leaks and unreachable/harmless integer + overflows. + - ssh-agent(1), ssh(1): don't truncate strings logged from PKCS#11 + modules. + - sshd(8), ssh(1): better validate CASignatureAlgorithms in ssh_config + and sshd_config. Previously this directive would accept certificate + algorithm names, but these were unusable in practice as OpenSSH does + not support CA chains. + - ssh(1): make `ssh -Q CASignatureAlgorithms` only list signature + algorithms that are valid for CA signing. Previous behaviour was to + list all signing algorithms, including certificate algorithms. + - ssh-keyscan(1): gracefully handle systems where rlimits or the maximum + number of open files is larger than INT_MAX. + - ssh-keygen(1): fix "no comment" not showing on when running + `ssh-keygen -l` on multiple keys where one has a comment and other + following keys do not. bz3580 + - scp(1), sftp(1): adjust ftruncate() logic to handle servers that + reorder requests. Previously, if the server reordered requests then + the resultant file would be erroneously truncated. + - ssh(1): don't incorrectly disable hostname canonicalization when + CanonicalizeHostname=yes and ProxyJump was explicitly set to "none". + - scp(1): when copying local->remote, check that the source file exists + before opening an SFTP connection to the server (closes: #59255). + - sshd(8): provide a replacement for the SELinux matchpathcon() + function, which is deprecated. + - All: relax libcrypto version checks for OpenSSL >=3 (closes: + #1035623). Beyond OpenSSL 3.0, the ABI compatibility guarantees are + wider (only the library major must match instead of major and minor in + earlier versions). + - ssh-copy-id(1): Special case OpenWrt instead of Dropbear + (LP: #1966886). + + -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> Sat, 02 Sep 2023 21:02:53 +0100 + +openssh (1:9.3p2-1) unstable; urgency=high + + * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/releasenotes.html#9.3p2): + - [CVE-2023-38408] Fix a condition where specific libraries loaded via + ssh-agent(1)'s PKCS#11 support could be abused to achieve remote code + execution via a forwarded agent socket. + + -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> Wed, 19 Jul 2023 22:49:14 +0100 + +openssh (1:9.3p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium + + * Debconf translations: + - Romanian (thanks, Remus-Gabriel Chelu; closes: #1033178). + * Properly fix date of 1:3.0.2p1-2 changelog entry (closes: #1034425). + * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/releasenotes.html#9.3p1): + - [CVE-2023-28531] ssh-add(1): when adding smartcard keys to + ssh-agent(1) with the per-hop destination constraints (ssh-add -h ...) + added in OpenSSH 8.9, a logic error prevented the constraints from + being communicated to the agent. This resulted in the keys being added + without constraints. The common cases of non-smartcard keys and keys + without destination constraints are unaffected. This problem was + reported by Luci Stanescu (closes: #1033166). + - [SECURITY] ssh(1): Portable OpenSSH provides an implementation of the + getrrsetbyname(3) function if the standard library does not provide + it, for use by the VerifyHostKeyDNS feature. A specifically crafted + DNS response could cause this function to perform an out-of-bounds + read of adjacent stack data, but this condition does not appear to be + exploitable beyond denial-of-service to the ssh(1) client. + - ssh-keygen(1), ssh-keyscan(1): accept -Ohashalg=sha1|sha256 when + outputting SSHFP fingerprints to allow algorithm selection. + - sshd(8): add a `sshd -G` option that parses and prints the effective + configuration without attempting to load private keys and perform + other checks. This allows usage of the option before keys have been + generated and for configuration evaluation and verification by + unprivileged users. + - scp(1), sftp(1): fix progressmeter corruption on wide displays. + - ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): use RSA/SHA256 when testing usability of + private keys as some systems are starting to disable RSA/SHA1 in + libcrypto. + - sftp-server(8): fix a memory leak. + - ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-keyscan(1): remove vestigial protocol + compatibility code and simplify what's left. + - Fix a number of low-impact Coverity static analysis findings. + - ssh_config(5), sshd_config(5): mention that some options are not + first-match-wins. + - Rework logging for the regression tests. Regression tests will now + capture separate logs for each ssh and sshd invocation in a test. + - ssh(1): make `ssh -Q CASignatureAlgorithms` work as the manpage says + it should. + - ssh(1): ensure that there is a terminating newline when adding a new + entry to known_hosts. + - sshd(8): harden Linux seccomp sandbox. Move to an allowlist of + mmap(2), madvise(2) and futex(2) flags, removing some concerning + kernel attack surface. + * debian/README.Debian: Clarify that you need to restart ssh.socket after + overriding its ListenStream= option (LP: #2020560). + * debian/openssh-server.postinst: Use "sshd -G" to parse the server + configuration file (closes: #959726). + * Fix incorrect RRSET_FORCE_EDNS0 flags validation in SSHFP DNSSEC patch + (thanks, Ben Hutchings; closes: #909022). + * Always use the internal mkdtemp implementation, since it substitutes + more randomness into the template string than glibc's version (closes: + #1001186). + + -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> Tue, 20 Jun 2023 01:01:48 +0100 + +openssh (1:9.2p1-2) unstable; urgency=medium + + * Fix mistakenly-unreleased entry for 1:9.2p1-1 in debian/NEWS. + + -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> Wed, 08 Feb 2023 10:43:07 +0000 + +openssh (1:9.2p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium + + * Set "UsePAM yes" when running regression tests, to match our default + sshd configuration. + * Ignore Lintian error about depending on lsb-base for now, to avoid + problems with partial upgrades on non-default init systems. + * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/releasenotes.html#9.2p1): + - [SECURITY] sshd(8): fix a pre-authentication double-free memory fault + introduced in OpenSSH 9.1. This is not believed to be exploitable, and + it occurs in the unprivileged pre-auth process that is subject to + chroot(2) and is further sandboxed on most major platforms. + - [SECURITY] ssh(8): in OpenSSH releases after 8.7, the PermitRemoteOpen + option would ignore its first argument unless it was one of the + special keywords "any" or "none", causing the permission list to fail + open if only one permission was specified. + - [SECURITY] ssh(1): if the CanonicalizeHostname and + CanonicalizePermittedCNAMEs options were enabled, and the system/libc + resolver did not check that names in DNS responses were valid, then + use of these options could allow an attacker with control of DNS to + include invalid characters (possibly including wildcards) in names + added to known_hosts files when they were updated. These names would + still have to match the CanonicalizePermittedCNAMEs allow-list, so + practical exploitation appears unlikely. + - ssh(1): add a new EnableEscapeCommandline ssh_config(5) option that + controls whether the client-side ~C escape sequence that provides a + command-line is available. Among other things, the ~C command-line + could be used to add additional port-forwards at runtime. This option + defaults to "no", disabling the ~C command-line that was previously + enabled by default. + - sshd(8): add support for channel inactivity timeouts via a new + sshd_config(5) ChannelTimeout directive. This allows channels that + have not seen traffic in a configurable interval to be automatically + closed. Different timeouts may be applied to session, X11, agent and + TCP forwarding channels. + - sshd(8): add a sshd_config UnusedConnectionTimeout option to terminate + client connections that have no open channels for a length of time. + This complements the ChannelTimeout option above. + - sshd(8): add a -V (version) option to sshd like the ssh client has. + - ssh(1): add a "Host" line to the output of ssh -G showing the original + hostname argument. bz3343 + - scp(1), sftp(1): add a -X option to both scp(1) and sftp(1) to allow + control over some SFTP protocol parameters: the copy buffer length and + the number of in-flight requests, both of which are used during + upload/download. Previously these could be controlled in sftp(1) only. + This makes them available in both SFTP protocol clients using the same + option character sequence. + - ssh-keyscan(1): allow scanning of complete CIDR address ranges, e.g. + "ssh-keyscan 192.168.0.0/24". If a CIDR range is passed, then it will + be expanded to all possible addresses in the range including the + all-0s and all-1s addresses. + - ssh(1): support dynamic remote port forwarding in escape + command-line's -R processing. + - ssh(1): when restoring non-blocking mode to stdio fds, restore exactly + the flags that ssh started with and don't just clobber them with zero, + as this could also remove the append flag from the set. + - ssh(1): avoid printf("%s", NULL) if using UserKnownHostsFile=none and + a hostkey in one of the system known hosts file changes. + - scp(1): switch scp from using pipes to a socket-pair for communication + with its ssh sub-processes, matching how sftp(1) operates. + - sshd(8): clear signal mask early in main(); sshd may have been started + with one or more signals masked (sigprocmask(2) is not cleared on + fork/exec) and this could interfere with various things, e.g. the + login grace timer. Execution environments that fail to clear the + signal mask before running sshd are clearly broken, but apparently + they do exist. + - ssh(1): warn if no host keys for hostbased auth can be loaded. + - sshd(8): Add server debugging for hostbased auth that is queued and + sent to the client after successful authentication, but also logged to + assist in diagnosis of HostbasedAuthentication problems. + - ssh(1): document use of the IdentityFile option as being usable to + list public keys as well as private keys. + - sshd(8): check for and disallow MaxStartups values less than or equal + to zero during config parsing, rather than failing later at runtime. + - ssh-keygen(1): fix parsing of hex cert expiry times specified on the + command-line when acting as a CA. + - scp(1): when scp(1) is using the SFTP protocol for transport (the + default), better match scp/rcp's handling of globs that don't match + the globbed characters but do match literally (e.g. trying to transfer + a file named "foo.[1]"). Previously scp(1) in SFTP mode would not + match these pathnames but legacy scp/rcp mode would. + - ssh-agent(1): document the "-O no-restrict-websafe" command-line + option. + - ssh(1): honour user's umask(2) if it is more restrictive then the ssh + default (022). + - sshd(8): allow writev(2) in the Linux seccomp sandbox. This seems to + be used by recent glibcs at least in some configurations during error + conditions. + - sshd(8): simplify handling of SSH_CONNECTION PAM env var, removing + global variable and checking the return value from pam_putenv. + - sshd(8): disable SANDBOX_SECCOMP_FILTER_DEBUG that was mistakenly + enabled during the OpenSSH 9.1 release cycle. + - sshd(8): defer PRNG seeding until after the initial closefrom(2) call. + PRNG seeding will initialize OpenSSL, and some engine providers (e.g. + Intel's QAT) will open descriptors for their own use that closefrom(2) + could clobber. + * debian/run-tests: Add a little more flexibility for debugging. + + -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> Wed, 08 Feb 2023 10:36:06 +0000 + +openssh (1:9.1p1-2) unstable; urgency=medium + + [ Christian Göttsche ] + * Do not copy SELinux security context in postinst. + + [ Colin Watson ] + * Add missing ${misc:Depends} to Depends for openssh-client-udeb, + openssh-server-udeb. + * Use secure URI in Homepage field. + * Remove 2 obsolete maintscript entries in 2 files. + * Fix day-of-week for changelog entries 1:3.0.2p1-9, 1:3.0.2p1-2, + 1:3.0.1p1-1. + * Remove deprecated Encoding key from desktop file + debian/ssh-askpass-gnome.desktop. + * Update standards version to 4.6.2, no changes needed. + * debian/tests/regress: Adjust to cope with changes in adduser 3.130 (see + #625758). + + -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> Tue, 03 Jan 2023 11:57:19 +0000 + +openssh (1:9.1p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium + + [ Markus Teich ] + * Delete obsolete upstart configuration override. + + [ Colin Watson ] + * Work around apparent dh-exec regressions (closes: #1016340). + * Don't install unnecessary *.lo files in openssh-tests. + * Update Lintian overrides to current syntax. + * Pass on compiler/linker flags when building debian/keygen-test. + * Remove obsolete and misleading rcp/rlogin/rsh alternatives, and stop + providing rsh-client (closes: #197037). + * Add sshd_config checksums for 1:8.2p1-1 and 1:8.7p1-1 to ucf reference + file. + * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/releasenotes.html#9.1p1, + closes: #1021585): + - ssh-keyscan(1): fix a one-byte overflow in SSH- banner processing. + - ssh-keygen(1): double free() in error path of file hashing step in + signing/verify code. + - ssh-keysign(8): double-free in error path introduced in openssh-8.9. + - ssh(1), sshd(8): SetEnv directives in ssh_config and sshd_config are + now first-match-wins to match other directives.

This prevents glob characters + from being processed in places they shouldn't, e.g. "cd /tmp/a*/", + "get *.txt" should have the get operation treat the path "/tmp/a*" + literally and not attempt to expand it (LP: #1483751). + - ssh(1), sshd(8): be stricter in which characters will be accepted in + specifying a mask length; allow only 0-9. + - ssh-keygen(1): avoid printing hash algorithm twice when dumping a KRL. + - ssh(1), sshd(8): continue running local I/O for open channels during + SSH transport rekeying. This should make ~-escapes work in the client + (e.g. to exit) if the connection happened to have stalled during a + rekey event. + - ssh(1), sshd(8): avoid potential poll() spin during rekeying. + - Further hardening for sshbuf internals: disallow "reparenting" a + hierarchical sshbuf and zero the entire buffer if reallocation fails. + - sshd(8): add AUDIT_ARCH_PPC to supported seccomp sandbox + architectures. + * Drop patch to work around https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9765, + since the fix for that is in Debian testing. + * Rewrite gnome-ssh-askpass(1) manual page using mdoc macros, and flesh it + out a bit more. + + [ Steve Langasek ] + * Support systemd socket activation.

SFTP offers more predictable filename handling and + does not require expansion of glob(3) patterns via the shell on the + remote side. + SFTP support may be enabled via a temporary scp -s flag. It is + intended for SFTP to become the default transfer mode in the near + future, at which time the -s flag will be removed. The -O flag exists + to force use of the original SCP/RCP protocol for cases where SFTP may + be unavailable or incompatible. + - sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support expansion of ~/ + and ~user/ prefixed paths.

This feature is + intended for use by git to support signing and verifying objects using + ssh keys. + - ssh-keygen(8): support printing of the full public key in a sshsig + signature via a -Oprint-pubkey flag. + - ssh(1)/sshd(8): start time-based re-keying exactly on schedule in the + client and server mainloops.

Avoids race conditions where a signal may arrive + immediately before select(3) and not be processed until an event + fires. + - ssh(1): sessions started with ControlPersist were incorrectly + executing a shell when the -N (no shell) option was specified (closes: + #762633). + - ssh(1): check if IPQoS or TunnelDevice are already set before + overriding. Prevents values in config files from overriding values + supplied on the command line. + - ssh(1): fix debug message when finding a private key to match a + certificate being attempted for user authentication. Previously it + would print the certificate's path, whereas it was supposed to be + showing the private key's path. + - sshd(8): match host certificates against host public keys, not private + keys. Allows use of certificates with private keys held in a + ssh-agent. + - ssh(1): add a workaround for a bug in OpenSSH 7.4 sshd(8), which + allows RSA/SHA2 signatures for public key authentication but fails to + advertise this correctly via SSH2_MSG_EXT_INFO. This causes clients of + these server to incorrectly match PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms and + potentially refuse to offer valid keys. + - sftp(1)/scp(1): degrade gracefully if a sftp-server offers the + limits@openssh.com extension but fails when the client tries to invoke + it. + - ssh(1): allow ssh_config SetEnv to override $TERM, which is otherwise + handled specially by the protocol. Useful in ~/.ssh/config to set TERM + to something generic (e.g. "xterm" instead of "xterm-256color") for + destinations that lack terminfo entries. + - sftp-server(8): the limits@openssh.com extension was incorrectly + marked as an operation that writes to the filesystem, which made it + unavailable in sftp-server read-only mode. + - ssh(1): fix SEGV in UpdateHostkeys debug() message, triggered when the + update removed more host keys than remain present. + - Many manual page fixes. + - sshd(8): handle GIDs > 2^31 in getgrouplist.

It now includes the + authenticator data needed to validate attestation signatures. + - The API between OpenSSH and the FIDO token middleware has changed and + the SSH_SK_VERSION_MAJOR version has been incremented as a result. + Third-party middleware libraries must support the current API version + (7) to work with OpenSSH 8.4. + - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): support for FIDO keys that require a PIN for + each use. These keys may be generated using ssh-keygen using a new + "verify-required" option. When a PIN-required key is used, the user + will be prompted for a PIN to complete the signature operation. + - sshd(8): authorized_keys now supports a new "verify-required" option + to require FIDO signatures assert that the token verified that the + user was present before making the signature. The FIDO protocol + supports multiple methods for user-verification, but currently OpenSSH + only supports PIN verification. + - sshd(8), ssh-keygen(1): add support for verifying FIDO webauthn + signatures. Webauthn is a standard for using FIDO keys in web + browsers. These signatures are a slightly different format to plain + FIDO signatures and thus require explicit support. + - ssh(1): allow some keywords to expand shell-style ${ENV} environment + variables. The supported keywords are CertificateFile, ControlPath, + IdentityAgent and IdentityFile, plus LocalForward and RemoteForward + when used for Unix domain socket paths. + - ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): allow some additional control over the use of + ssh-askpass via a new $SSH_ASKPASS_REQUIRE environment variable, + including forcibly enabling and disabling its use (closes: #368657). + - ssh(1): allow ssh_config(5)'s AddKeysToAgent keyword accept a time + limit for keys in addition to its current flag options. Time-limited + keys will automatically be removed from ssh-agent after their expiry + time has passed. + - scp(1), sftp(1): allow the -A flag to explicitly enable agent + forwarding in scp and sftp. The default remains to not forward an + agent, even when ssh_config enables it. + - ssh(1): add a '%k' TOKEN that expands to the effective HostKey of the + destination. This allows, e.g., keeping host keys in individual files + using "UserKnownHostsFile ~/.ssh/known_hosts.d/%k" (closes: #481250). + - ssh(1): add %-TOKEN, environment variable and tilde expansion to the + UserKnownHostsFile directive, allowing the path to be completed by the + configuration. + - ssh-keygen(1): allow "ssh-add -d -" to read keys to be deleted from + stdin. + - sshd(8): improve logging for MaxStartups connection throttling. sshd + will now log when it starts and stops throttling and periodically + while in this state. + - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): better support for multiple attached FIDO + tokens. In cases where OpenSSH cannot unambiguously determine which + token to direct a request to, the user is now required to select a + token by touching it. In cases of operations that require a PIN to be + verified, this avoids sending the wrong PIN to the wrong token and + incrementing the token's PIN failure counter (tokens effectively erase + their keys after too many PIN failures). + - sshd(8): fix Include before Match in sshd_config (LP: #1885990). + - ssh(1): close stdin/out/error when forking after authentication + completes ("ssh -f ..."). + - ssh(1), sshd(8): limit the amount of channel input data buffered, + avoiding peers that advertise large windows but are slow to read from + causing high memory consumption. + - ssh-agent(1): handle multiple requests sent in a single write() to the + agent. + - sshd(8): allow sshd_config longer than 256k. + - sshd(8): avoid spurious "Unable to load host key" message when sshd + load a private key but no public counterpart. + - ssh(1): prefer the default hostkey algorithm list whenever we have a + hostkey that matches its best-preference algorithm. + - sshd(1): when ordering the hostkey algorithms to request from a + server, prefer certificate types if the known_hosts files contain a + key marked as a @cert-authority. + - ssh(1): perform host key fingerprint comparisons for the "Are you sure + you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])?" prompt with + case sensitivity. + - sshd(8): ensure that address/masklen mismatches in sshd_config yield + fatal errors at daemon start time rather than later when they are + evaluated. + - ssh-keygen(1): ensure that certificate extensions are lexically + sorted. Previously if the user specified a custom extension then the + everything would be in order except the custom ones. + - ssh(1): also compare username when checking for JumpHost loops. + - ssh-keygen(1): preserve group/world read permission on known_hosts + files across runs of "ssh-keygen -Rf /path". The old behaviour was to + remove all rights for group/other. + - ssh-keygen(1): Mention the [-a rounds] flag in the ssh-keygen manual + page and usage(). + - sshd(8): explicitly construct path to ~/.ssh/rc rather than relying on + it being relative to the current directory, so that it can still be + found if the shell startup changes its directory. + - sshd(8): when redirecting sshd's log output to a file, undo this + redirection after the session child process is forked(). Fixes missing + log messages when using this feature under some circumstances. + - sshd(8): start ClientAliveInterval bookkeeping before first pass + through select() loop; fixed theoretical case where busy sshd may + ignore timeouts from client. + - ssh(1): only reset the ServerAliveInterval check when we receive + traffic from the server and ignore traffic from a port forwarding + client, preventing a client from keeping a connection alive when it + should be terminated. + - ssh-keygen(1): avoid spurious error message when ssh-keygen creates + files outside ~/.ssh. + - sftp-client(1): fix off-by-one error that caused sftp downloads to + make one more concurrent request that desired. This prevented using + sftp(1) in unpipelined request/response mode, which is useful when + debugging. + - ssh(1), sshd(8): handle EINTR in waitfd() and timeout_connect() + helpers. + - ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): defer creation of ~/.ssh until we attempt to + write to it so we don't leave an empty .ssh directory when it's not + needed. + - ssh(1), sshd(8): fix multiplier when parsing time specifications when + handling seconds after other units. + - sshd(8): always send any PAM account messages. If the PAM account + stack returns any messages, always send them to the user and not just + if the check succeeds. + - gnome-ssh-askpass3: ensure the "close" button is not focused by + default for SSH_ASKPASS_PROMPT=none prompts. Avoids space/enter + accidentally dismissing FIDO touch notifications. + - gnome-ssh-askpass3: allow some control over textarea colour via + $GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS_FG_COLOR and $GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS_BG_COLOR + environment variables. + - Detect the Frankenstein monster of Linux/X32 and allow the sandbox to + function there. + + -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> Tue, 20 Oct 2020 14:15:17 +0100 + +openssh (1:8.3p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium + + * New upstream release (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-8.3): + - [SECURITY] scp(1): when receiving files, scp(1) could become + desynchronised if a utimes(2) system call failed.

Important changes not previously + backported to 4.7p1: + - 4.9/4.9p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-4.9): + + Added chroot(2) support for sshd(8), controlled by a new option + "ChrootDirectory" (closes: #139047, LP: #24777). + + Linked sftp-server(8) into sshd(8). The internal sftp server is used + when the command "internal-sftp" is specified in a Subsystem or + ForceCommand declaration. When used with ChrootDirectory, the + internal sftp server requires no special configuration of files + inside the chroot environment. + + Added a protocol extension method "posix-rename@openssh.com" for + sftp-server(8) to perform POSIX atomic rename() operations; sftp(1) + prefers this if available (closes: #308561). + + Removed the fixed limit of 100 file handles in sftp-server(8). + + ssh(8) will now skip generation of SSH protocol 1 ephemeral server + keys when in inetd mode and protocol 2 connections are negotiated. + This speeds up protocol 2 connections to inetd-mode servers that + also allow Protocol 1. + + Accept the PermitRootLogin directive in a sshd_config(5) Match + block. Allows for, e.g. permitting root only from the local network. + + Reworked sftp(1) argument splitting and escaping to be more + internally consistent (i.e. between sftp commands) and more + consistent with sh(1). Please note that this will change the + interpretation of some quoted strings, especially those with + embedded backslash escape sequences. + + Support "Banner=none" in sshd_config(5) to disable sending of a + pre-login banner (e.g. in a Match block). + + ssh(1) ProxyCommands are now executed with $SHELL rather than + /bin/sh. + + ssh(1)'s ConnectTimeout option is now applied to both the TCP + connection and the SSH banner exchange (previously it just covered + the TCP connection). This allows callers of ssh(1) to better detect + and deal with stuck servers that accept a TCP connection but don't + progress the protocol, and also makes ConnectTimeout useful for + connections via a ProxyCommand. + + scp(1) incorrectly reported "stalled" on slow copies (closes: + #140828). + + scp(1) date underflow for timestamps before epoch. + + ssh(1) used the obsolete SIG DNS RRtype for host keys in DNS, + instead of the current standard RRSIG. + + Correctly drain ACKs when a sftp(1) upload write fails midway, + avoids a fatal() exit from what should be a recoverable condition. + + Fixed ssh-keygen(1) selective host key hashing (i.e. "ssh-keygen -HF + hostname") to not include any IP address in the data to be hashed. + + Make ssh(1) skip listening on the IPv6 wildcard address when a + binding address of 0.0.0.0 is used against an old SSH server that + does not support the RFC4254 syntax for wildcard bind addresses. + + Enable IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on sshd(8) listen socket, as is + already done for X11/TCP forwarding sockets (closes: #439661). + + Fix FD leak that could hang a ssh(1) connection multiplexing master. + + Make ssh(1) -q option documentation consistent with reality. + + Fixed sshd(8) PAM support not calling pam_session_close(), or + failing to call it with root privileges (closes: #372680). + + Fix activation of OpenSSL engine support when requested in configure + (LP: #119295). + + Cache SELinux status earlier so we know if it's enabled after a + chroot (LP: #237557). + - 5.1/5.1p1 (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-5.1): + + Introduce experimental SSH Fingerprint ASCII Visualisation to ssh(1) + and ssh-keygen(1). Visual fingerprint display is controlled by a new + ssh_config(5) option "VisualHostKey". The intent is to render SSH + host keys in a visual form that is amenable to easy recall and + rejection of changed host keys. + + sshd_config(5) now supports CIDR address/masklen matching in "Match + address" blocks, with a fallback to classic wildcard matching. + + sshd(8) now supports CIDR matching in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys + from="..." restrictions, also with a fallback to classic wildcard + matching. + + Added an extended test mode (-T) to sshd(8) to request that it write + its effective configuration to stdout and exit. Extended test mode + also supports the specification of connection parameters (username, + source address and hostname) to test the application of + sshd_config(5) Match rules. + + ssh(1) now prints the number of bytes transferred and the overall + connection throughput for SSH protocol 2 sessions when in verbose + mode (previously these statistics were displayed for protocol 1 + connections only). + + sftp-server(8) now supports extension methods statvfs@openssh.com + and fstatvfs@openssh.com that implement statvfs(2)-like operations. + + sftp(1) now has a "df" command to the sftp client that uses the + statvfs@openssh.com to produce a df(1)-like display of filesystem + space and inode utilisation (requires statvfs@openssh.com support on + the server). + + Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the + number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP + connection. This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions + above the previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing + (MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions + entirely (MaxSessions=0). + + Added a no-more-sessions@openssh.com global request extension that + is sent from ssh(1) to sshd(8) when the client knows that it will + never request another session (i.e. when session multiplexing is + disabled). This allows a server to disallow further session requests + and terminate the session in cases where the client has been + hijacked. + + ssh-keygen(1) now supports the use of the -l option in combination + with -F to search for a host in ~/.ssh/known_hosts and display its + fingerprint. + + ssh-keyscan(1) now defaults to "rsa" (protocol 2) keys, instead of + "rsa1" (LP: #129794). + + Added an AllowAgentForwarding option to sshd_config(8) to control + whether authentication agent forwarding is permitted. Note that this + is a loose control, as a client may install their own unofficial + forwarder. + + ssh(1) and sshd(8): avoid unnecessary malloc/copy/free when + receiving network data, resulting in a ~10% speedup. + + ssh(1) and sshd(8) will now try additional addresses when connecting + to a port forward destination whose DNS name resolves to more than + one address. The previous behaviour was to try the only first + address and give up if that failed. + + ssh(1) and sshd(8) now support signalling that channels are + half-closed for writing, through a channel protocol extension + notification "eow@openssh.com". This allows propagation of closed + file descriptors, so that commands such as "ssh -2 localhost od + /bin/ls | true" do not send unnecessary data over the wire. + + sshd(8): increased the default size of ssh protocol 1 ephemeral keys + from 768 to 1024 bits. + + When ssh(1) has been requested to fork after authentication ("ssh + -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure enabled, delay the fork until after + replies for any -R forwards have been seen. Allows for robust + detection of -R forward failure when using -f. + + "Match group" blocks in sshd_config(5) now support negation of + groups. E.g. "Match group staff,!guests". + + sftp(1) and sftp-server(8) now allow chmod-like operations to set + set[ug]id/sticky bits. + + The MaxAuthTries option is now permitted in sshd_config(5) match + blocks. + + Multiplexed ssh(1) sessions now support a subset of the ~ escapes + that are available to a primary connection. + + ssh(1) connection multiplexing will now fall back to creating a new + connection in most error cases (closes: #352830). + + Make ssh(1) deal more gracefully with channel requests that fail. + Previously it would optimistically assume that requests would always + succeed, which could cause hangs if they did not (e.g. when the + server runs out of file descriptors). + + ssh(1) now reports multiplexing errors via the multiplex slave's + stderr where possible (subject to LogLevel in the mux master). + + Fixed an UMAC alignment problem that manifested on Itanium + platforms. + * Remove our local version of moduli(5) now that there's one upstream. + * Say "GTK+" rather than "GTK" in ssh-askpass-gnome's description. + * Add lintian overrides for empty /usr/share/doc/openssh-client + directories in openssh-server and ssh (necessary due to being symlink + targets). + * Merge from Ubuntu: + - Add 'status' action to openssh-server init script, requiring lsb-base + (>= 3.2-13) (thanks, Dustin Kirkland). + * debconf template translations: + - Update Korean (thanks, Sunjae Park; closes: #484821). + + -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> Fri, 25 Jul 2008 10:45:08 +0100 + +openssh (1:4.7p1-13) unstable; urgency=low + + * Add some helpful advice to the end of ssh-vulnkey's output if there are + unknown or compromised keys (thanks, Dan Jacobson; closes: #483756). + * Check compromised key blacklist in ssh or ssh-add, as well as in the + server (LP: #232391).
