From 9148d0a8031d89f53f045b63ac3a709611d94778 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "djm@openbsd.org" Date: Mon, 18 Dec 2023 14:45:17 +0000 Subject: upstream: implement "strict key exchange" in ssh and sshd This adds a protocol extension to improve the integrity of the SSH transport protocol, particular in and around the initial key exchange (KEX) phase. Full details of the extension are in the PROTOCOL file. with markus@ OpenBSD-Commit-ID: 2a66ac962f0a630d7945fee54004ed9e9c439f14 Origin: backport, https://anongit.mindrot.org/openssh.git/commit/?id=1edb00c58f8a6875fad6a497aa2bacf37f9e6cd5 Last-Update: 2023-12-19 Patch-Name: CVE-2023-48795.patch --- PROTOCOL | 26 +++++++++++++++++ kex.c | 72 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------- kex.h | 1 + packet.c | 78 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------- sshconnect2.c | 14 +++------ sshd.c | 9 ++++-- 6 files changed, 143 insertions(+), 57 deletions(-) diff --git a/PROTOCOL b/PROTOCOL index 27804d0ca..ad611a01a 100644 --- a/PROTOCOL +++ b/PROTOCOL @@ -104,6 +104,32 @@ http://git.libssh.org/users/aris/libssh.git/plain/doc/curve25519-sha256@libssh.o This is identical to curve25519-sha256 as later published in RFC8731. +1.9 transport: strict key exchange extension + +OpenSSH supports a number of transport-layer hardening measures under +a "strict KEX" feature.
