Import OpenSSH-7.4 OpenSSH 7.4 has just been released. It will be available from the mirrors listed at http://www.openssh.com/ shortly. OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol 2.0 implementation and includes sftp client and server support. OpenSSH also includes transitional support for the legacy SSH 1.3 and 1.5 protocols that may be enabled at compile-time. Once again, we would like to thank the OpenSSH community for their continued support of the project, especially those who contributed code or patches, reported bugs, tested snapshots or donated to the project. More information on donations may be found at: http://www.openssh.com/donations.html Future deprecation notice ========================= We plan on retiring more legacy cryptography in future releases, specifically: * In approximately August 2017, removing remaining support for the SSH v.1 protocol (client-only and currently compile-time disabled). * In the same release, removing support for Blowfish and RC4 ciphers and the RIPE-MD160 HMAC. (These are currently run-time disabled). * Refusing all RSA keys smaller than 1024 bits (the current minimum is 768 bits) * The next release of OpenSSH will remove support for running sshd(8) with privilege separation disabled. * The next release of portable OpenSSH will remove support for OpenSSL version prior to 1.0.1. This list reflects our current intentions, but please check the final release notes for future releases. Potentially-incompatible changes ================================ This release includes a number of changes that may affect existing configurations: * This release removes server support for the SSH v.1 protocol. * ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the only mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems connecting to older devices using the default configuration, but it's highly likely that such devices already need explicit configuration for key exchange and hostkey algorithms already anyway. * sshd(8): Remove support for pre-authentication compression. Doing compression early in the protocol probably seemed reasonable in the 1990s, but today it's clearly a bad idea in terms of both cryptography (cf. multiple compression oracle attacks in TLS) and attack surface. Pre-auth compression support has been disabled by default for >10 years. Support remains in the client. * ssh-agent will refuse to load PKCS#11 modules outside a whitelist of trusted paths by default. The path whitelist may be specified at run-time. * sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and an authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now refuse to accept the certificate unless they are identical. The previous (documented) behaviour of having the certificate forced-command override the other could be a bit confusing and error-prone. * sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support for having /bin/login manage login sessions.
