Import OpenSSH 9.5 (Last was OpenSSH 9.3)
OpenSSH 9.5/9.5p1 (2023-10-04)
OpenSSH 9.5 was released on 2023-10-04. It is available from the
mirrors listed at https://www.openssh.com/.
OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol 2.0 implementation and
includes sftp client and server support.
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:

Changes since OpenSSH 9.4
=========================
This release fixes a number of bugs and adds some small features.
Potentially incompatible changes
--------------------------------
* 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.
New features
------------
* 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.
Bugfixes
--------
* 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. bz3611
* 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.cw
bz3602
* 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.
Portability
-----------
* Avoid clang zero-call-used-regs=all bug on Apple compilers, which
for some reason have version numbers that do not match the upstream
clang version numbers. bz#3584
* Fix configure test for zlib 1.3 and later/development versions. bz3604

OpenSSH 9.4/9.4p1 (2023-08-10)
OpenSSH 9.4 was released on 2023-08-10. It is available from the
mirrors listed at https://www.openssh.com/.
OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol 2.0 implementation and
includes sftp client and server support.

Changes since OpenSSH 9.3p2
===========================
This release fixes a number of bugs and adds some small features.
Potentially incompatible changes
--------------------------------
* This release removes support for older versions of libcrypto.
OpenSSH now requires LibreSSL >= 3.1.0 or OpenSSL >= 1.1.1.
Note that these versions are already deprecated by their upstream
vendors.
* 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.
New features
------------
* 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%.
Bugfixes
--------
* 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. bz3589 bz3589
* 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. bz3574
* sshd(8), ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): remove vestigal 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; GHPR406
* 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. bz3577
* 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; bz3581
* 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 expicitly set to
"none". bz3567
* scp(1): when copying local->remote, check that the source file
exists before opening an SFTP connection to the server. Based on
GHPR#370
Portability
-----------
* All: a number of build fixes for various platforms and
configuration combinations.
* sshd(8): provide a replacement for the SELinux matchpathcon()
function, which is deprecated.
* All: relax libcrypto version checks for OpenSSL >=3. Beyond
OpenSSL 3.0, the ABI compatibility guarantees are wider (only
the library major must match instead of major and minor in
earlier versions). bz#3548.
* Tests: fix build problems for the sk-dummy.so FIDO provider module
used in some tests.

Import OpenSSH-9.1 (previously we were on OpenSSH-9.0) This release is focused on bug fixing. Security ======== This release contains fixes for three minor memory safety problems. None are believed to be exploitable, but we report most memory safety problems as potential security vulnerabilities out of caution. * ssh-keyscan(1): fix a one-byte overflow in SSH- banner processing. Reported by Qualys * ssh-keygen(1): double free() in error path of file hashing step in signing/verify code; GHPR333 * ssh-keysign(8): double-free in error path introduced in openssh-8.9 Potentially-incompatible changes -------------------------------- * The portable OpenSSH project now signs commits and release tags using git's recent SSH signature support. The list of developer signing keys is included in the repository as .git_allowed_signers and is cross-signed using the PGP key that is still used to sign release artifacts: https://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/OpenSSH/RELEASE_KEY.asc * ssh(1), sshd(8): SetEnv directives in ssh_config and sshd_config are now first-match-wins to match other directives. Previously if an environment variable was multiply specified the last set value would have been used. bz3438 * ssh-keygen(8): ssh-keygen -A (generate all default host key types) will no longer generate DSA keys, as these are insecure and have not been used by default for some years. New features ------------ * ssh(1), sshd(8): add a RequiredRSASize directive to set a minimum RSA key length. Keys below this length will be ignored for user authentication and for host authentication in sshd(8). ssh(1) will terminate a connection if the server offers an RSA key that falls below this limit, as the SSH protocol does not include the ability to retry a failed key exchange. * sftp-server(8): add a "users-groups-by-id@openssh.com" extension request that allows the client to obtain user/group names that correspond to a set of uids/gids. * sftp(1): use "users-groups-by-id@openssh.com" sftp-server extension (when available) to fill in user/group names for directory listings. * sftp-server(8): support the "home-directory" extension request defined in draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-extensions-00. This overlaps a bit with the existing "expand-path@openssh.com", but some other clients support it. * ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): allow certificate validity intervals, sshsig verification times and authorized_keys expiry-time options to accept dates in the UTC time zone in addition to the default of interpreting them in the system time zone. YYYYMMDD and YYMMDDHHMM[SS] dates/times will be interpreted as UTC if suffixed with a 'Z' character. Also allow certificate validity intervals to be specified in raw seconds-since-epoch as hex value, e.g. -V 0x1234:0x4567890. This is intended for use by regress tests and other tools that call ssh-keygen as part of a CA workflow. bz3468 * sftp(1): allow arguments to the sftp -D option, e.g. sftp -D "/usr/libexec/sftp-server -el debug3" * ssh-keygen(1): allow the existing -U (use agent) flag to work with "-Y sign" operations, where it will be interpreted to require that the private keys is hosted in an agent; bz3429 Bugfixes -------- * ssh-keygen(1): implement the "verify-required" certificate option. This was already documented when support for user-verified FIDO keys was added, but the ssh-keygen(1) code was missing. * ssh-agent(1): hook up the restrict_websafe command-line flag; previously the flag was accepted but never actually used. * sftp(1): improve filename tab completions: never try to complete names to non-existent commands, and better match the completion type (local or remote filename) against the argument position being completed. * ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): several fixes to FIDO key handling, especially relating to keys that request user-verification. These should reduce the number of unnecessary PIN prompts for keys that support intrinsic user verification. GHPR302, GHPR329 * ssh-keygen(1): when enrolling a FIDO resident key, check if a credential with matching application and user ID strings already exists and, if so, prompt the user for confirmation before overwriting the credential. GHPR329 * sshd(8): improve logging of errors when opening authorized_keys files. bz2042 * ssh(1): avoid multiplexing operations that could cause SIGPIPE from causing the client to exit early. bz3454 * ssh_config(5), sshd_config(5): clarify that the RekeyLimit directive applies to both transmitted and received data. GHPR328 * ssh-keygen(1): avoid double fclose() in error path. * sshd(8): log an error if pipe() fails while accepting a connection. bz3447 * ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): fix possible NULL deref when built without FIDO support. bz3443 * ssh-keyscan(1): add missing *-sk types to ssh-keyscan manpage. GHPR294. * sshd(8): ensure that authentication passwords are cleared from memory in error paths. GHPR286 * ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): avoid possibility of notifier code executing kill(-1). GHPR286 * ssh_config(5): note that the ProxyJump directive also accepts the same tokens as ProxyCommand. GHPR305. * scp(1): do not not ftruncate(3) files early when in sftp mode. The previous behaviour of unconditionally truncating the destination file would cause "scp ~/foo localhost:foo" and the reverse "scp localhost:foo ~/foo" to delete all the contents of their destination. bz3431 * ssh-keygen(1): improve error message when 'ssh-keygen -Y sign' is unable to load a private key; bz3429 * sftp(1), scp(1): when performing operations that glob(3) a remote path, ensure that the implicit working directory used to construct that path escapes glob(3) characters. 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. * ssh(1), sshd(8): be stricter in which characters will be accepted in specifying a mask length; allow only 0-9. GHPR278 * 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. GHPR287 Portability ----------- * ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): automatically enable the built-in FIDO security key support if libfido2 is found and usable, unless --without-security-key-builtin was requested. * ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): many fixes to make the WinHello FIDO device usable on Cygwin. The windows://hello FIDO device will be automatically used by default on this platform unless requested otherwise, or when probing resident FIDO credentials (an operation not currently supported by WinHello). * Portable OpenSSH: remove workarounds for obsolete and unsupported versions of OpenSSL libcrypto. In particular, this release removes fallback support for OpenSSL that lacks AES-CTR or AES-GCM. Those AES cipher modes were added to OpenSSL prior to the minimum version currently supported by OpenSSH, so this is not expected to impact any currently supported configurations. * sshd(8): fix SANDBOX_SECCOMP_FILTER_DEBUG on current Linux/glibc * All: resync and clean up internal CSPRNG code. * scp(1), sftp(1), sftp-server(8): avoid linking these programs with unnecessary libraries. They are no longer linked against libz and libcrypto. This may be of benefit to space constrained systems using any of those components in isolation. * sshd(8): add AUDIT_ARCH_PPC to supported seccomp sandbox architectures. * configure: remove special casing of crypt(). configure will no longer search for crypt() in libcrypto, as it was removed from there years ago. configure will now only search libc and libcrypt. * configure: refuse to use OpenSSL 3.0.4 due to potential RCE in its RSA implementation (CVE-2022-2274) on x86_64. * All: request 1.1x API compatibility for OpenSSL >=3.x; GHPR322 * ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): fix a number of missing includes required by the XMSS code on some platforms. * sshd(8): cache timezone data in capsicum sandbox.

Import OpenSSH-9.0
Changes since OpenSSH 8.9
=========================
This release is focused on bug fixing.
Potentially-incompatible changes
--------------------------------
This release switches scp(1) from using the legacy scp/rcp protocol
to using the SFTP protocol by default.
Legacy scp/rcp performs wildcard expansion of remote filenames (e.g.
"scp host:* .") through the remote shell. This has the side effect of
requiring double quoting of shell meta-characters in file names
included on scp(1) command-lines, otherwise they could be interpreted
as shell commands on the remote side.
This creates one area of potential incompatibility: scp(1) when using
the SFTP protocol no longer requires this finicky and brittle quoting,
and attempts to use it may cause transfers to fail. We consider the
removal of the need for double-quoting shell characters in file names
to be a benefit and do not intend to introduce bug-compatibility for
legacy scp/rcp in scp(1) when using the SFTP protocol.
Another area of potential incompatibility relates to the use of remote
paths relative to other user's home directories, for example -
"scp host:~user/file /tmp". The SFTP protocol has no native way to
expand a ~user path. However, sftp-server(8) in OpenSSH 8.7 and later
support a protocol extension "expand-path@openssh.com" to support
this.
In case of incompatibility, the scp(1) client may be instructed to use
the legacy scp/rcp using the -O flag.
New features
------------
* ssh(1), sshd(8): use the hybrid Streamlined NTRU Prime + x25519 key
exchange method by default ("sntrup761x25519-sha512@openssh.com").
The NTRU algorithm is believed to resist attacks enabled by future
quantum computers and is paired with the X25519 ECDH key exchange
(the previous default) as a backstop against any weaknesses in
NTRU Prime that may be discovered in the future. The combination
ensures that the hybrid exchange offers at least as good security
as the status quo.
We are making this change now (i.e. ahead of cryptographically-
relevant quantum computers) to prevent "capture now, decrypt
later" attacks where an adversary who can record and store SSH
session ciphertext would be able to decrypt it once a sufficiently
advanced quantum computer is available.
* sftp-server(8): support the "copy-data" extension to allow server-
side copying of files/data, following the design in
draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-extensions-00. bz2948
* sftp(1): add a "cp" command to allow the sftp client to perform
server-side file copies.
Bugfixes
--------
* ssh(1), sshd(8): upstream: fix poll(2) spin when a channel's output
fd closes without data in the channel buffer. bz3405 and bz3411
* sshd(8): pack pollfd array in server listen/accept loop. Could
cause the server to hang/spin when MaxStartups > RLIMIT_NOFILE
* ssh-keygen(1): avoid NULL deref via the find-principals and
check-novalidate operations. bz3409 and GHPR307 respectively.
* scp(1): fix a memory leak in argument processing. bz3404
* sshd(8): don't try to resolve ListenAddress directives in the sshd
re-exec path. They are unused after re-exec and parsing errors
(possible for example if the host's network configuration changed)
could prevent connections from being accepted.
* sshd(8): when refusing a public key authentication request from a
client for using an unapproved or unsupported signature algorithm
include the algorithm name in the log message to make debugging
easier.
Portability
-----------
* sshd(8): refactor platform-specific locked account check, fixing
an incorrect free() on platforms with both libiaf and shadow
passwords (probably only Unixware) GHPR284,
* ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix possible integer underflow in scan_scaled(3)
parsing of K/M/G/etc quantities. bz#3401.
* sshd(8): provide killpg implementation (mostly for Tandem NonStop)
GHPR301.
* Check for missing ftruncate prototype. GHPR301
* sshd(8): default to not using sandbox when cross compiling. On most
systems poll(2) does not work when the number of FDs is reduced
with setrlimit, so assume it doesn't when cross compiling and we
can't run the test. bz#3398.
* sshd(8): allow ppoll_time64 in seccomp sandbox. Should fix sandbox
violations on some (at least i386 and armhf) 32bit Linux platforms.
bz#3396.
* Improve detection of -fzero-call-used-regs=all support in
configure script.

Import OpenSSH 8.9. Future deprecation notice ========================= A near-future release of OpenSSH will switch scp(1) from using the legacy scp/rcp protocol to using SFTP by default. Legacy scp/rcp performs wildcard expansion of remote filenames (e.g. "scp host:* .") through the remote shell. This has the side effect of requiring double quoting of shell meta-characters in file names included on scp(1) command-lines, otherwise they could be interpreted as shell commands on the remote side. This creates one area of potential incompatibility: scp(1) when using the SFTP protocol no longer requires this finicky and brittle quoting, and attempts to use it may cause transfers to fail. We consider the removal of the need for double-quoting shell characters in file names to be a benefit and do not intend to introduce bug-compatibility for legacy scp/rcp in scp(1) when using the SFTP protocol. Another area of potential incompatibility relates to the use of remote paths relative to other user's home directories, for example - "scp host:~user/file /tmp". The SFTP protocol has no native way to expand a ~user path. However, sftp-server(8) in OpenSSH 8.7 and later support a protocol extension "expand-path@openssh.com" to support this. Security Near Miss ================== * sshd(8): fix an integer overflow in the user authentication path that, in conjunction with other logic errors, could have yielded unauthenticated access under difficult to exploit conditions. This situation is not exploitable because of independent checks in the privilege separation monitor. Privilege separation has been enabled by default in since openssh-3.2.2 (released in 2002) and has been mandatory since openssh-7.5 (released in 2017). Moreover, portable OpenSSH has used toolchain features available in most modern compilers to abort on signed integer overflow since openssh-6.5 (released in 2014). Thanks to Malcolm Stagg for finding and reporting this bug. Potentially-incompatible changes ================================ * sshd(8), portable OpenSSH only: this release removes in-built support for MD5-hashed passwords. If you require these on your system then we recommend linking against libxcrypt or similar. * This release modifies the FIDO security key middleware interface and increments SSH_SK_VERSION_MAJOR. Changes since OpenSSH 8.8 ========================= This release includes a number of new features. New features ------------ * ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-add(1), ssh-agent(1): add a system for restricting forwarding and use of keys added to ssh-agent(1) A detailed description of the feature is available at https://www.openssh.com/agent-restrict.html and the protocol extensions are documented in the PROTOCOL and PROTOCOL.agent files in the source release. * ssh(1), sshd(8): add the sntrup761x25519-sha512@openssh.com hybrid ECDH/x25519 + Streamlined NTRU Prime post-quantum KEX to the default KEXAlgorithms list (after the ECDH methods but before the prime-group DH ones). The next release of OpenSSH is likely to make this key exchange the default method. * ssh-keygen(1): when downloading resident keys from a FIDO token, pass back the user ID that was used when the key was created and append it to the filename the key is written to (if it is not the default). Avoids keys being clobbered if the user created multiple resident keys with the same application string but different user IDs. * ssh-keygen(1), ssh(1), ssh-agent(1): better handling for FIDO keys on tokens that provide user verification (UV) on the device itself, including biometric keys, avoiding unnecessary PIN prompts. * ssh-keygen(1): add "ssh-keygen -Y match-principals" operation to perform matching of principals names against an allowed signers file. To be used towards a TOFU model for SSH signatures in git. * ssh-add(1), ssh-agent(1): allow pin-required FIDO keys to be added to ssh-agent(1). $SSH_ASKPASS will be used to request the PIN at authentication time. * ssh-keygen(1): allow selection of hash at sshsig signing time (either sha512 (default) or sha256). * ssh(1), sshd(8): read network data directly to the packet input buffer instead indirectly via a small stack buffer. Provides a modest performance improvement. * ssh(1), sshd(8): read data directly to the channel input buffer, providing a similar modest performance improvement. * ssh(1): extend the PubkeyAuthentication configuration directive to accept yes|no|unbound|host-bound to allow control over one of the protocol extensions used to implement agent-restricted keys.

Import OpenSSH-8.7:
Imminent deprecation notice
===========================
OpenSSH will disable the ssh-rsa signature scheme by default in the
next release.
In the SSH protocol, the "ssh-rsa" signature scheme uses the SHA-1
hash algorithm in conjunction with the RSA public key algorithm.
It is now possible[1] to perform chosen-prefix attacks against the
SHA-1 algorithm for less than USD$50K.
Note that the deactivation of "ssh-rsa" signatures does not necessarily
require cessation of use for RSA keys. In the SSH protocol, keys may be
capable of signing using multiple algorithms. In particular, "ssh-rsa"
keys are capable of signing using "rsa-sha2-256" (RSA/SHA256),
"rsa-sha2-512" (RSA/SHA512) and "ssh-rsa" (RSA/SHA1). Only the last of
these is being turned off by default.
This algorithm is unfortunately still used widely despite the
existence of better alternatives, being the only remaining public key
signature algorithm specified by the original SSH RFCs that is still
enabled by default.
The better alternatives include:
* The RFC8332 RSA SHA-2 signature algorithms rsa-sha2-256/512. These
algorithms have the advantage of using the same key type as
"ssh-rsa" but use the safe SHA-2 hash algorithms. These have been
supported since OpenSSH 7.2 and are already used by default if the
client and server support them.
* The RFC8709 ssh-ed25519 signature algorithm. It has been supported
in OpenSSH since release 6.5.
* The RFC5656 ECDSA algorithms: ecdsa-sha2-nistp256/384/521. These
have been supported by OpenSSH since release 5.7.
To check whether a server is using the weak ssh-rsa public key
algorithm, for host authentication, try to connect to it after
removing the ssh-rsa algorithm from ssh(1)'s allowed list:
ssh -oHostKeyAlgorithms=-ssh-rsa user@host
If the host key verification fails and no other supported host key
types are available, the server software on that host should be
upgraded.
OpenSSH recently enabled the UpdateHostKeys option by default to
assist the client by automatically migrating to better algorithms.

Application to the PGP Web of Trust" Leurent, G and Peyrin, T
(2020) https://eprint.iacr.org/2020/014.pdf
Potentially-incompatible changes
================================
This release includes a number of changes that may affect existing
configurations:
* scp(1): this release changes the behaviour of remote to remote
copies (e.g. "scp host-a:/path host-b:") to transfer through the
local host by default. This was previously available via the -3
flag. This mode avoids the need to expose credentials on the
origin hop, avoids triplicate interpretation of filenames by the
shell (by the local system, the copy origin and the destination)
and, in conjunction with the SFTP support for scp(1) mentioned
below, allows use of all authentication methods to the remote
hosts (previously, only non-interactive methods could be used).
A -R flag has been added to select the old behaviour.
* ssh(1)/sshd(8): both the client and server are now using a
stricter configuration file parser. The new parser uses more
shell-like rules for quotes, space and escape characters. It is
also more strict in rejecting configurations that include options
lacking arguments. Previously some options (e.g. DenyUsers) could
appear on a line with no subsequent arguments. This release will
reject such configurations. The new parser will also reject
configurations with unterminated quotes and multiple '='
characters after the option name.
* ssh(1): when using SSHFP DNS records for host key verification,
ssh(1) will verify all matching records instead of just those
with the specific signature type requested. This may cause host
key verification problems if stale SSHFP records of a different
or legacy signature type exist alongside other records for a
particular host. bz#3322
* ssh-keygen(1): when generating a FIDO key and specifying an
explicit attestation challenge (using -Ochallenge), the challenge
will now be hashed by the builtin security key middleware. This
removes the (undocumented) requirement that challenges be exactly
32 bytes in length and matches the expectations of libfido2.
* sshd(8): environment="..." directives in authorized_keys files are
now first-match-wins and limited to 1024 discrete environment
variable names.
Changes since OpenSSH 8.6
=========================
This release contains a mix of new features and bug-fixes.
New features
------------
- scp(1): experimental support for transfers using the SFTP protocol
as a replacement for the venerable SCP/RCP protocol that it has
traditionally used. 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 was added to support these
paths when used by scp(1) while in SFTP mode.
- ssh(1): add a ForkAfterAuthentication ssh_config(5) counterpart to
the ssh(1) -f flag. GHPR#231
- ssh(1): add a StdinNull directive to ssh_config(5) that allows the
config file to do the same thing as -n does on the ssh(1) command-
line. GHPR#231
- ssh(1): add a SessionType directive to ssh_config, allowing the
configuration file to offer equivalent control to the -N (no
session) and -s (subsystem) command-line flags. GHPR#231
- ssh-keygen(1): allowed signers files used by ssh-keygen(1)
signatures now support listing key validity intervals alongside
they key, and ssh-keygen(1) can optionally check during signature
verification whether a specified time falls inside this interval.
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.
Bugfixes
--------
* ssh(1)/sshd(8): start time-based re-keying exactly on schedule in
the client and server mainloops. Previously the re-key timeout
could expire but re-keying would not start until a packet was sent
or received, causing a spin in select() if the connection was
quiescent.
* ssh-keygen(1): avoid Y2038 problem in printing certificate
validity lifetimes. Dates past 2^31-1 seconds since epoch were
displayed incorrectly on some platforms. bz#3329
* scp(1): allow spaces to appear in usernames for local to remote
and scp -3 remote to remote copies. bz#1164
* ssh(1)/sshd(8): remove references to ChallengeResponseAuthentication
in favour of KbdInteractiveAuthentication. The former is what was in
SSHv1, the latter is what is in SSHv2 (RFC4256) and they were
treated as somewhat but not entirely equivalent. We retain the old
name as a deprecated alias so configuration files continue to work
as well as a reference in the man page for people looking for it.
bz#3303
* ssh(1)/ssh-add(1)/ssh-keygen(1): fix decoding of X.509 subject name
when extracting a key from a PKCS#11 certificate. bz#3327
* ssh(1): restore blocking status on stdio fds before close. ssh(1)
needs file descriptors in non-blocking mode to operate but it was
not restoring the original state on exit. This could cause
problems with fds shared with other programs via the shell,
bz#3280 and GHPR#246
* ssh(1)/sshd(8): switch both client and server mainloops from
select(3) to pselect(3). Avoids race conditions where a signal
may arrive immediately before select(3) and not be processed until
an event fires. bz#2158
* ssh(1): sessions started with ControlPersist were incorrectly
executing a shell when the -N (no shell) option was specified.
bz#3290
* 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. bz#3319
* 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. GHPR#247
* sshd(8): match host certificates against host public keys, not
private keys. Allows use of certificates with private keys held in
a ssh-agent. bz#3524
* 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
PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithmse and potentially refuse to offer valid
keys. bz#3213
* 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. bz#3318
* 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. bz#3318
* ssh(1): fix SEGV in UpdateHostkeys debug() message, triggered when
the update removed more host keys than remain present.
* many manual page fixes.
Portability
-----------
* ssh(1): move closefrom() to before first malloc. When built against
tcmalloc, the closefrom() would stomp on file descriptors created
for tcmalloc's internal use. bz#3321
* sshd(8): handle GIDs > 2^31 in getgrouplist. When compiled in 32bit
mode, the getgrouplist implementation may fail for GIDs greater than
LONG_MAX.
* ssh(1): xstrdup environment variable used by ForwardAgent. bz#3328
* sshd(8): don't sigdie() in signal handler in privsep child process;
this can end up causing sandbox violations per bz3286

Security
========
* sshd(8): OpenSSH 8.5 introduced the LogVerbose keyword. When this
option was enabled with a set of patterns that activated logging
in code that runs in the low-privilege sandboxed sshd process, the
log messages were constructed in such a way that printf(3) format
strings could effectively be specified the low-privilege code.
An attacker who had sucessfully exploited the low-privilege
process could use this to escape OpenSSH's sandboxing and attack
the high-privilege process. Exploitation of this weakness is
highly unlikely in practice as the LogVerbose option is not
enabled by default and is typically only used for debugging. No
vulnerabilities in the low-privilege process are currently known
to exist.
Thanks to Ilja Van Sprundel for reporting this bug.
Changes since OpenSSH 8.5
=========================
This release contains mostly bug fixes.
New features
------------
* sftp-server(8): add a new limits@openssh.com protocol extension
that allows a client to discover various server limits, including
maximum packet size and maximum read/write length.
* sftp(1): use the new limits@openssh.com extension (when available)
to select better transfer lengths in the client.
* sshd(8): Add ModuliFile keyword to sshd_config to specify the
location of the "moduli" file containing the groups for DH-GEX.
* unit tests: Add a TEST_SSH_ELAPSED_TIMES environment variable to
enable printing of the elapsed time in seconds of each test.
Bugfixes
--------
* ssh_config(5), sshd_config(5): sync CASignatureAlgorithms lists in
manual pages with the current default. GHPR#174
* ssh(1): ensure that pkcs11_del_provider() is called before exit.
GHPR#234
* ssh(1), sshd(8): fix problems in string->argv conversion. Multiple
backslashes were not being dequoted correctly and quoted space in
the middle of a string was being incorrectly split. GHPR#223
* ssh(1): return non-zero exit status when killed by signal; bz#3281

packet size. Also handle zero-length reads that are not explicitly
banned by the spec.

OpenSSH 8.5 was released on 2021-03-03. It is available from the
mirrors listed at https://www.openssh.com/.
OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol 2.0 implementation and
includes sftp client and server support.
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:

(2020) https://eprint.iacr.org/2020/014.pdf
Security
========
* ssh-agent(1): fixed a double-free memory corruption that was
introduced in OpenSSH 8.2 . We treat all such memory faults as
potentially exploitable. This bug could be reached by an attacker
with access to the agent socket.
On modern operating systems where the OS can provide information
about the user identity connected to a socket, OpenSSH ssh-agent
and sshd limit agent socket access only to the originating user
and root. Additional mitigation may be afforded by the system's
malloc(3)/free(3) implementation, if it detects double-free
conditions.
The most likely scenario for exploitation is a user forwarding an
agent either to an account shared with a malicious user or to a
host with an attacker holding root access.
* Portable sshd(8): Prevent excessively long username going to PAM.
This is a mitigation for a buffer overflow in Solaris' PAM username
handling (CVE-2020-14871), and is only enabled for Sun-derived PAM
implementations. This is not a problem in sshd itself, it only
prevents sshd from being used as a vector to attack Solaris' PAM.
It does not prevent the bug in PAM from being exploited via some
other PAM application. GHPR212
Potentially-incompatible changes
================================
This release includes a number of changes that may affect existing
configurations:
* ssh(1), sshd(8): this release changes the first-preference signature
algorithm from ECDSA to ED25519.
* ssh(1), sshd(8): set the TOS/DSCP specified in the configuration
for interactive use prior to TCP connect. The connection phase of
the SSH session is time-sensitive and often explicitly interactive.
The ultimate interactive/bulk TOS/DSCP will be set after
authentication completes.
* ssh(1), sshd(8): remove the pre-standardization cipher
rijndael-cbc@lysator.liu.se. It is an alias for aes256-cbc before
it was standardized in RFC4253 (2006), has been deprecated and
disabled by default since OpenSSH 7.2 (2016) and was only briefly
documented in ssh.1 in 2001.
* ssh(1), sshd(8): update/replace the experimental post-quantum
hybrid key exchange method based on Streamlined NTRU Prime coupled
with X25519.
The previous sntrup4591761x25519-sha512@tinyssh.org method is
replaced with sntrup761x25519-sha512@openssh.com. Per its
designers, the sntrup4591761 algorithm was superseded almost two
years ago by sntrup761.
(note this both the updated method and the one that it replaced are
disabled by default)
* ssh(1): disable CheckHostIP by default. It provides insignificant
benefits while making key rotation significantly more difficult,
especially for hosts behind IP-based load-balancers.
Changes since OpenSSH 8.4
=========================
New features
------------
* ssh(1): this release enables UpdateHostkeys by default subject to
some conservative preconditions:
- The key was matched in the UserKnownHostsFile (and not in the
GlobalKnownHostsFile).
- The same key does not exist under another name.
- A certificate host key is not in use.
- known_hosts contains no matching wildcard hostname pattern.
- VerifyHostKeyDNS is not enabled.
- The default UserKnownHostsFile is in use.
We expect some of these conditions will be modified or relaxed in
future.
* ssh(1), sshd(8): add a new LogVerbose configuration directive for
that allows forcing maximum debug logging by file/function/line
pattern-lists.
* ssh(1): when prompting the user to accept a new hostkey, display
any other host names/addresses already associated with the key.
* ssh(1): allow UserKnownHostsFile=none to indicate that no
known_hosts file should be used to identify host keys.
* ssh(1): add a ssh_config KnownHostsCommand option that allows the
client to obtain known_hosts data from a command in addition to
the usual files.
* ssh(1): add a ssh_config PermitRemoteOpen option that allows the
client to restrict the destination when RemoteForward is used
with SOCKS.
* ssh(1): for FIDO keys, if a signature operation fails with a
"incorrect PIN" reason and no PIN was initially requested from the
user, then request a PIN and retry the operation. This supports
some biometric devices that fall back to requiring PIN when reading
of the biometric failed, and devices that require PINs for all
hosted credentials.
* sshd(8): implement client address-based rate-limiting via new
sshd_config(5) PerSourceMaxStartups and PerSourceNetBlockSize
directives that provide more fine-grained control on a per-origin
address basis than the global MaxStartups limit.
Bugfixes
--------
* ssh(1): Prefix keyboard interactive prompts with "(user@host)" to
make it easier to determine which connection they are associated
with in cases like scp -3, ProxyJump, etc. bz#3224
* sshd(8): fix sshd_config SetEnv directives located inside Match
blocks. GHPR201
* ssh(1): when requesting a FIDO token touch on stderr, inform the
user once the touch has been recorded.
* ssh(1): prevent integer overflow when ridiculously large
ConnectTimeout values are specified, capping the effective value
(for most platforms) at 24 days. bz#3229
* ssh(1): consider the ECDSA key subtype when ordering host key
algorithms in the client.
* ssh(1), sshd(8): rename the PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes keyword to
PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms. The previous name incorrectly suggested
that it control allowed key algorithms, when this option actually
specifies the signature algorithms that are accepted. The previous
name remains available as an alias. bz#3253
* ssh(1), sshd(8): similarly, rename HostbasedKeyTypes (ssh) and
HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes (sshd) to HostbasedAcceptedAlgorithms.
* sftp-server(8): add missing lsetstat@openssh.com documentation
and advertisement in the server's SSH2_FXP_VERSION hello packet.
* ssh(1), sshd(8): more strictly enforce KEX state-machine by
banning packet types once they are received. Fixes memleak caused
by duplicate SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST (oss-fuzz #30078).
* sftp(1): allow the full range of UIDs/GIDs for chown/chgrp on 32bit
platforms instead of being limited by LONG_MAX. bz#3206
* Minor man page fixes (capitalization, commas, etc.) bz#3223
* sftp(1): when doing an sftp recursive upload or download of a
read-only directory, ensure that the directory is created with
write and execute permissions in the interim so that the transfer
can actually complete, then set the directory permission as the
final step. bz#3222
* ssh-keygen(1): document the -Z, check the validity of its argument
earlier and provide a better error message if it's not correct.
bz#2879
* ssh(1): ignore comments at the end of config lines in ssh_config,
similar to what we already do for sshd_config. bz#2320
* sshd_config(5): mention that DisableForwarding is valid in a
sshd_config Match block. bz3239
* sftp(1): fix incorrect sorting of "ls -ltr" under some
circumstances. bz3248.
* ssh(1), sshd(8): fix potential integer truncation of (unlikely)
timeout values. bz#3250
* ssh(1): make hostbased authentication send the signature algorithm
in its SSH2_MSG_USERAUTH_REQUEST packets instead of the key type.
This make HostbasedAcceptedAlgorithms do what it is supposed to -
filter on signature algorithm and not key type.
Portability
-----------
* sshd(8): add a number of platform-specific syscalls to the Linux
seccomp-bpf sandbox. bz#3232 bz#3260
* sshd(8): remove debug message from sigchld handler that could cause
deadlock on some platforms. bz#3259
* Sync contrib/ssh-copy-id with upstream.
* unittests: add a hostname function for systems that don't have it.
Some systems don't have a hostname command (it's not required by
POSIX). The do have uname -n (which is), but not all of those have
it report the FQDN.

Import 8.0: Security ======== This release contains mitigation for a weakness in the scp(1) tool and protocol (CVE-2019-6111): when copying files from a remote system to a local directory, scp(1) did not verify that the filenames that the server sent matched those requested by the client. This could allow a hostile server to create or clobber unexpected local files with attacker-controlled content. This release adds client-side checking that the filenames sent from the server match the command-line request, The scp protocol is outdated, inflexible and not readily fixed. We recommend the use of more modern protocols like sftp and rsync for file transfer instead. Potentially-incompatible changes ================================ This release includes a number of changes that may affect existing configurations: * scp(1): Relating to the above changes to scp(1); the scp protocol relies on the remote shell for wildcard expansion, so there is no infallible way for the client's wildcard matching to perfectly reflect the server's. If there is a difference between client and server wildcard expansion, the client may refuse files from the server. For this reason, we have provided a new "-T" flag to scp that disables these client-side checks at the risk of reintroducing the attack described above. * sshd(8): Remove support for obsolete "host/port" syntax. Slash- separated host/port was added in 2001 as an alternative to host:port syntax for the benefit of IPv6 users. These days there are establised standards for this like [::1]:22 and the slash syntax is easily mistaken for CIDR notation, which OpenSSH supports for some things. Remove the slash notation from ListenAddress and PermitOpen; bz#2335 Changes since OpenSSH 7.9 ========================= This release is focused on new features and internal refactoring. New Features ------------ * ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), ssh-add(1): Add support for ECDSA keys in PKCS#11 tokens. * ssh(1), sshd(8): Add experimental quantum-computing resistant key exchange method, based on a combination of Streamlined NTRU Prime 4591^761 and X25519. * ssh-keygen(1): Increase the default RSA key size to 3072 bits, following NIST Special Publication 800-57's guidance for a 128-bit equivalent symmetric security level. * ssh(1): Allow "PKCS11Provider=none" to override later instances of the PKCS11Provider directive in ssh_config; bz#2974 * sshd(8): Add a log message for situations where a connection is dropped for attempting to run a command but a sshd_config ForceCommand=internal-sftp restriction is in effect; bz#2960 * ssh(1): When prompting whether to record a new host key, accept the key fingerprint as a synonym for "yes". This allows the user to paste a fingerprint obtained out of band at the prompt and have the client do the comparison for you. * ssh-keygen(1): When signing multiple certificates on a single command-line invocation, allow automatically incrementing the certificate serial number. * scp(1), sftp(1): Accept -J option as an alias to ProxyJump on the scp and sftp command-lines. * ssh-agent(1), ssh-pkcs11-helper(8), ssh-add(1): Accept "-v" command-line flags to increase the verbosity of output; pass verbose flags though to subprocesses, such as ssh-pkcs11-helper started from ssh-agent. * ssh-add(1): Add a "-T" option to allowing testing whether keys in an agent are usable by performing a signature and a verification. * sftp-server(8): Add a "lsetstat@openssh.com" protocol extension that replicates the functionality of the existing SSH2_FXP_SETSTAT operation but does not follow symlinks. bz#2067 * sftp(1): Add "-h" flag to chown/chgrp/chmod commands to request they do not follow symlinks. * sshd(8): Expose $SSH_CONNECTION in the PAM environment. This makes the connection 4-tuple available to PAM modules that wish to use it in decision-making. bz#2741 * sshd(8): Add a ssh_config "Match final" predicate Matches in same pass as "Match canonical" but doesn't require hostname canonicalisation be enabled. bz#2906 * sftp(1): Support a prefix of '@' to suppress echo of sftp batch commands; bz#2926 * ssh-keygen(1): When printing certificate contents using "ssh-keygen -Lf /path/certificate", include the algorithm that the CA used to sign the cert. Bugfixes -------- * sshd(8): Fix authentication failures when sshd_config contains "AuthenticationMethods any" inside a Match block that overrides a more restrictive default. * sshd(8): Avoid sending duplicate keepalives when ClientAliveCount is enabled. * sshd(8): Fix two race conditions related to SIGHUP daemon restart. Remnant file descriptors in recently-forked child processes could block the parent sshd's attempt to listen(2) to the configured addresses. Also, the restarting parent sshd could exit before any child processes that were awaiting their re-execution state had completed reading it, leaving them in a fallback path. * ssh(1): Fix stdout potentially being redirected to /dev/null when ProxyCommand=- was in use. * sshd(8): Avoid sending SIGPIPE to child processes if they attempt to write to stderr after their parent processes have exited; bz#2071 * ssh(1): Fix bad interaction between the ssh_config ConnectTimeout and ConnectionAttempts directives - connection attempts after the first were ignoring the requested timeout; bz#2918 * ssh-keyscan(1): Return a non-zero exit status if no keys were found; bz#2903 * scp(1): Sanitize scp filenames to allow UTF-8 characters without terminal control sequences; bz#2434 * sshd(8): Fix confusion between ClientAliveInterval and time-based RekeyLimit that could cause connections to be incorrectly closed. bz#2757 * ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Correct some bugs in PKCS#11 token PIN handling at initial token login. The attempt to read the PIN could be skipped in some cases, particularly on devices with integrated PIN readers. This would lead to an inability to retrieve keys from these tokens. bz#2652 * ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support keys on PKCS#11 tokens that set the CKA_ALWAYS_AUTHENTICATE flag by requring a fresh login after the C_SignInit operation. bz#2638 * ssh(1): Improve documentation for ProxyJump/-J, clarifying that local configuration does not apply to jump hosts. * ssh-keygen(1): Clarify manual - ssh-keygen -e only writes public keys, not private. * ssh(1), sshd(8): be more strict in processing protocol banners, allowing \r characters only immediately before \n. * Various: fix a number of memory leaks, including bz#2942 and bz#2938 * scp(1), sftp(1): fix calculation of initial bandwidth limits. Account for bytes written before the timer starts and adjust the schedule on which recalculations are performed. Avoids an initial burst of traffic and yields more accurate bandwidth limits; bz#2927 * sshd(8): Only consider the ext-info-c extension during the initial key eschange. It shouldn't be sent in subsequent ones, but if it is present we should ignore it. This prevents sshd from sending a SSH_MSG_EXT_INFO for REKEX for buggy these clients. bz#2929 * ssh-keygen(1): Clarify manual that ssh-keygen -F (find host in authorized_keys) and -R (remove host from authorized_keys) options may accept either a bare hostname or a [hostname]:port combo. bz#2935 * ssh(1): Don't attempt to connect to empty SSH_AUTH_SOCK; bz#2936 * sshd(8): Silence error messages when sshd fails to load some of the default host keys. Failure to load an explicitly-configured hostkey is still an error, and failure to load any host key is still fatal. pr/103 * ssh(1): Redirect stderr of ProxyCommands to /dev/null when ssh is started with ControlPersist; prevents random ProxyCommand output from interfering with session output. * ssh(1): The ssh client was keeping a redundant ssh-agent socket (leftover from authentication) around for the life of the connection; bz#2912 * sshd(8): Fix bug in HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options. If only RSA-SHA2 siganture types were specified, then authentication would always fail for RSA keys as the monitor checks only the base key (not the signature algorithm) type against *AcceptedKeyTypes. bz#2746 * ssh(1): Request correct signature types from ssh-agent when certificate keys and RSA-SHA2 signatures are in use. Portability ----------- * sshd(8): On Cygwin, run as SYSTEM where possible, using S4U for token creation if it supports MsV1_0 S4U Logon. * sshd(8): On Cygwin, use custom user/group matching code that respects the OS' behaviour of case-insensitive matching. * sshd(8): Don't set $MAIL if UsePAM=yes as PAM typically specifies the user environment if it's enabled; bz#2937 * sshd(8) Cygwin: Change service name to cygsshd to avoid collision with Microsoft's OpenSSH port. * Allow building against OpenSSL -dev (3.x) * Fix a number of build problems against version configurations and versions of OpenSSL. Including bz#2931 and bz#2921 * Improve warnings in cygwin service setup. bz#2922 * Remove hardcoded service name in cygwin setup. bz#2922

Changes since OpenSSH 6.8 ========================= This is primarily a bugfix release. Security -------- * ssh(1): when forwarding X11 connections with ForwardX11Trusted=no, connections made after ForwardX11Timeout expired could be permitted and no longer subject to XSECURITY restrictions because of an ineffective timeout check in ssh(1) coupled with "fail open" behaviour in the X11 server when clients attempted connections with expired credentials. This problem was reported by Jann Horn. * ssh-agent(1): fix weakness of agent locking (ssh-add -x) to password guessing by implementing an increasing failure delay, storing a salted hash of the password rather than the password itself and using a timing-safe comparison function for verifying unlock attempts. This problem was reported by Ryan Castellucci. New Features ------------ * ssh(1), sshd(8): promote chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com to be the default cipher * sshd(8): support admin-specified arguments to AuthorizedKeysCommand; bz#2081 * sshd(8): add AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand that allows retrieving authorized principals information from a subprocess rather than a file. * ssh(1), ssh-add(1): support PKCS#11 devices with external PIN entry devices bz#2240 * sshd(8): allow GSSAPI host credential check to be relaxed for multihomed hosts via GSSAPIStrictAcceptorCheck option; bz#928 * ssh-keygen(1): support "ssh-keygen -lF hostname" to search known_hosts and print key hashes rather than full keys. * ssh-agent(1): add -D flag to leave ssh-agent in foreground without enabling debug mode; bz#2381 Bugfixes -------- * ssh(1), sshd(8): deprecate legacy SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST_OLD message and do not try to use it against some 3rd-party SSH implementations that use it (older PuTTY, WinSCP). * Many fixes for problems caused by compile-time deactivation of SSH1 support (including bz#2369) * ssh(1), sshd(8): cap DH-GEX group size at 4Kbits for Cisco implementations as some would fail when attempting to use group sizes >4K; bz#2209 * ssh(1): fix out-of-bound read in EscapeChar configuration option parsing; bz#2396 * sshd(8): fix application of PermitTunnel, LoginGraceTime, AuthenticationMethods and StreamLocalBindMask options in Match blocks * ssh(1), sshd(8): improve disconnection message on TCP reset; bz#2257 * ssh(1): remove failed remote forwards established by muliplexing from the list of active forwards; bz#2363 * sshd(8): make parsing of authorized_keys "environment=" options independent of PermitUserEnv being enabled; bz#2329 * sshd(8): fix post-auth crash with permitopen=none; bz#2355 * ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1): allow new-format private keys to be encrypted with AEAD ciphers; bz#2366 * ssh(1): allow ListenAddress, Port and AddressFamily configuration options to appear in any order; bz#86 * sshd(8): check for and reject missing arguments for VersionAddendum and ForceCommand; bz#2281 * ssh(1), sshd(8): don't treat unknown certificate extensions as fatal; bz#2387 * ssh-keygen(1): make stdout and stderr output consistent; bz#2325 * ssh(1): mention missing DISPLAY environment in debug log when X11 forwarding requested; bz#1682 * sshd(8): correctly record login when UseLogin is set; bz#378 * sshd(8): Add some missing options to sshd -T output and fix output of VersionAddendum and HostCertificate. bz#2346 * Document and improve consistency of options that accept a "none" argument" TrustedUserCAKeys, RevokedKeys (bz#2382), AuthorizedPrincipalsFile (bz#2288) * ssh(1): include remote username in debug output; bz#2368 * sshd(8): avoid compatibility problem with some versions of Tera Term, which would crash when they received the hostkeys notification message (hostkeys-00@openssh.com) * sshd(8): mention ssh-keygen -E as useful when comparing legacy MD5 host key fingerprints; bz#2332 * ssh(1): clarify pseudo-terminal request behaviour and use make manual language consistent; bz#1716 * ssh(1): document that the TERM environment variable is not subject to SendEnv and AcceptEnv; bz#2386

Changes since OpenSSH 6.7 ========================= This is a major release, containing a number of new features as well as a large internal re-factoring. Potentially-incompatible changes -------------------------------- * sshd(8): UseDNS now defaults to 'no'. Configurations that match against the client host name (via sshd_config or authorized_keys) may need to re-enable it or convert to matching against addresses. New Features ------------ * Much of OpenSSH's internal code has been re-factored to be more library-like. These changes are mostly not user-visible, but have greatly improved OpenSSH's testability and internal layout. * Add FingerprintHash option to ssh(1) and sshd(8), and equivalent command-line flags to the other tools to control algorithm used for key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5 to SHA256 and format from hex to base64. Fingerprints now have the hash algorithm prepended. An example of the new format: SHA256:mVPwvezndPv/ARoIadVY98vAC0g+P/5633yTC4d/wXE Please note that visual host keys will also be different. * ssh(1), sshd(8): Experimental host key rotation support. Add a protocol extension for a server to inform a client of all its available host keys after authentication has completed. The client may record the keys in known_hosts, allowing it to upgrade to better host key algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys. The client side of this is controlled by a UpdateHostkeys config option (default off). * ssh(1): Add a ssh_config HostbasedKeyType option to control which host public key types are tried during host-based authentication. * ssh(1), sshd(8): fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when sshd offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths. * ssh(1): when host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host names as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. fixes bz#2074 and avoiding needless DNS lookups in some cases. * ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Key Revocation Lists (KRLs) no longer require OpenSSH to be compiled with OpenSSL support. * ssh(1), ssh-keysign(8): Make ed25519 keys work for host based authentication. * sshd(8): SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al, Bleichenbacher Side Channel Attack. Fake up a bignum key before RSA decryption. * sshd(8): Remember which public keys have been used for authentication and refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey to require that users authenticate using two _different_ public keys. * sshd(8): add sshd_config HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options to allow sshd to control what public key types will be accepted. Currently defaults to all. * sshd(8): Don't count partial authentication success as a failure against MaxAuthTries. * ssh(1): Add RevokedHostKeys option for the client to allow text-file or KRL-based revocation of host keys. * ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial number or key ID without scoping to a particular CA. * ssh(1): Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows ssh_config Match blocks to trigger only in the second config pass. * ssh(1): Add a -G option to ssh that causes it to parse its configuration and dump the result to stdout, similar to "sshd -T". * ssh(1): Allow Match criteria to be negated. E.g. "Match !host". * The regression test suite has been extended to cover more OpenSSH features. The unit tests have been expanded and now cover key exchange. Bugfixes * ssh-keyscan(1): ssh-keyscan has been made much more robust again servers that hang or violate the SSH protocol. * ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix regression bz#2306: Key path names were being lost as comment fields. * ssh(1): Allow ssh_config Port options set in the second config parse phase to be applied (they were being ignored). bz#2286 * ssh(1): Tweak config re-parsing with host canonicalisation - make the second pass through the config files always run when host name canonicalisation is enabled (and not whenever the host name changes) bz#2267 * ssh(1): Fix passing of wildcard forward bind addresses when connection multiplexing is in use; bz#2324; * ssh-keygen(1): Fix broken private key conversion from non-OpenSSH formats; bz#2345. * ssh-keygen(1): Fix KRL generation bug when multiple CAs are in use. * Various fixes to manual pages: bz#2288, bz#2316, bz#2273 Portable OpenSSH * Support --without-openssl at configure time Disables and removes dependency on OpenSSL. Many features, including SSH protocol 1 are not supported and the set of crypto options is greatly restricted. This will only work on systems with native arc4random or /dev/urandom. Considered highly experimental for now. * Support --without-ssh1 option at configure time Allows disabling support for SSH protocol 1. * sshd(8): Fix compilation on systems with IPv6 support in utmpx; bz#2296 * Allow custom service name for sshd on Cygwin. Permits the use of multiple sshd running with different service names.

Changes since OpenSSH 6.6
=========================
Potentially-incompatible changes
* sshd(8): The default set of ciphers and MACs has been altered to
remove unsafe algorithms. In particular, CBC ciphers and arcfour*
are disabled by default.
The full set of algorithms remains available if configured
explicitly via the Ciphers and MACs sshd_config options.
* sshd(8): Support for tcpwrappers/libwrap has been removed.
* OpenSSH 6.5 and 6.6 have a bug that causes ~0.2% of connections
using the curve25519-sha256@libssh.org KEX exchange method to fail
when connecting with something that implements the specification
correctly. OpenSSH 6.7 disables this KEX method when speaking to
one of the affected versions.
New Features
* Major internal refactoring to begin to make part of OpenSSH usable
as a library. So far the wire parsing, key handling and KRL code
has been refactored. Please note that we do not consider the API
stable yet, nor do we offer the library in separable form.
* ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Unix domain socket forwarding.
A remote TCP port may be forwarded to a local Unix domain socket
and vice versa or both ends may be a Unix domain socket.
* ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Add support for SSHFP DNS records for
ED25519 key types.
* sftp(1): Allow resumption of interrupted uploads.
* ssh(1): When rekeying, skip file/DNS lookups of the hostkey if it
is the same as the one sent during initial key exchange; bz#2154
* sshd(8): Allow explicit ::1 and 127.0.0.1 forwarding bind
addresses when GatewayPorts=no; allows client to choose address
family; bz#2222
* sshd(8): Add a sshd_config PermitUserRC option to control whether
~/.ssh/rc is executed, mirroring the no-user-rc authorized_keys
option; bz#2160
* ssh(1): Add a %C escape sequence for LocalCommand and ControlPath
that expands to a unique identifer based on a hash of the tuple of
(local host, remote user, hostname, port). Helps avoid exceeding
miserly pathname limits for Unix domain sockets in multiplexing
control paths; bz#2220
* sshd(8): Make the "Too many authentication failures" message
include the user, source address, port and protocol in a format
similar to the authentication success / failure messages; bz#2199
* Added unit and fuzz tests for refactored code. These are run
automatically in portable OpenSSH via the "make tests" target.
Bugfixes
* sshd(8): Fix remote forwarding with the same listen port but
different listen address.
* ssh(1): Fix inverted test that caused PKCS#11 keys that were
explicitly listed in ssh_config or on the commandline not to be
preferred.
* ssh-keygen(1): Fix bug in KRL generation: multiple consecutive
revoked certificate serial number ranges could be serialised to an
invalid format. Readers of a broken KRL caused by this bug will
fail closed, so no should-have-been-revoked key will be accepted.
* ssh(1): Reflect stdio-forward ("ssh -W host:port ...") failures in
exit status. Previously we were always returning 0; bz#2255
* ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Make Ed25519 keys' title fit properly in the
randomart border; bz#2247
* ssh-agent(1): Only cleanup agent socket in the main agent process
and not in any subprocesses it may have started (e.g. forked
askpass). Fixes agent sockets being zapped when askpass processes
fatal(); bz#2236
* ssh-add(1): Make stdout line-buffered; saves partial output getting
lost when ssh-add fatal()s part-way through (e.g. when listing keys
from an agent that supports key types that ssh-add doesn't);
bz#2234
* ssh-keygen(1): When hashing or removing hosts, don't choke on
@revoked markers and don't remove @cert-authority markers; bz#2241
* ssh(1): Don't fatal when hostname canonicalisation fails and a
ProxyCommand is in use; continue and allow the ProxyCommand to
connect anyway (e.g. to a host with a name outside the DNS behind
a bastion)
* scp(1): When copying local->remote fails during read, don't send
uninitialised heap to the remote end.
* sftp(1): Fix fatal "el_insertstr failed" errors when tab-completing
filenames with a single quote char somewhere in the string;
bz#2238
* ssh-keyscan(1): Scan for Ed25519 keys by default.
* ssh(1): When using VerifyHostKeyDNS with a DNSSEC resolver, down-
convert any certificate keys to plain keys and attempt SSHFP
resolution. Prevents a server from skipping SSHFP lookup and
forcing a new-hostkey dialog by offering only certificate keys.
* sshd(8): Avoid crash at exit via NULL pointer reference; bz#2225
* Fix some strict-alignment errors.
Portable OpenSSH
* Portable OpenSSH now supports building against libressl-portable.
* Portable OpenSSH now requires openssl 0.9.8f or greater. Older
versions are no longer supported.
* In the OpenSSL version check, allow fix version upgrades (but not
downgrades. Debian bug #748150.
* sshd(8): On Cygwin, determine privilege separation user at runtime,
since it may need to be a domain account.
* sshd(8): Don't attempt to use vhangup on Linux. It doesn't work for
non-root users, and for them it just messes up the tty settings.
* Use CLOCK_BOOTTIME in preference to CLOCK_MONOTONIC when it is
available. It considers time spent suspended, thereby ensuring
timeouts (e.g. for expiring agent keys) fire correctly. bz#2228
* Add support for ed25519 to opensshd.init init script.
* sftp-server(8): On platforms that support it, use prctl() to
prevent sftp-server from accessing /proc/self/{mem,maps}
Changes since OpenSSH 6.5
=========================
This is primarily a bugfix release.
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.
New / changed features:
* ssh(1), sshd(8): this release removes the J-PAKE authentication code.
This code was experimental, never enabled and had been unmaintained
for some time.
* ssh(1): when processing Match blocks, skip 'exec' clauses other clauses
predicates failed to match.
* 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).
Portable OpenSSH:
* sshd(8): don't fatal if the FreeBSD Capsicum is offered by the
system headers and libc but is not supported by the kernel.
* Fix build using the HP-UX compiler.
Changes since OpenSSH 6.4
=========================
This is a feature-focused release.
New features:
* ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for key exchange using elliptic-curve
Diffie Hellman in Daniel Bernstein's Curve25519. This key exchange
method is the default when both the client and server support it.
* ssh(1), sshd(8): Add support for Ed25519 as a public key type.
Ed25519 is a elliptic curve signature scheme that offers
better security than ECDSA and DSA and good performance. It may be
used for both user and host keys.
* Add a new private key format that uses a bcrypt KDF to better
protect keys at rest. This format is used unconditionally for
Ed25519 keys, but may be requested when generating or saving
existing keys of other types via the -o ssh-keygen(1) option.
We intend to make the new format the default in the near future.
Details of the new format are in the PROTOCOL.key file.
* ssh(1), sshd(8): Add a new transport cipher
"chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com" that combines Daniel Bernstein's
ChaCha20 stream cipher and Poly1305 MAC to build an authenticated
encryption mode. Details are in the PROTOCOL.chacha20poly1305 file.
* 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): Add a ssh_config(5) "Match" keyword that allows
conditional configuration to be applied by matching on hostname,
user and result of arbitrary commands.
* ssh(1): Add 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): Add the ability to whitelist and/or blacklist sftp
protocol requests by name.
* sftp-server(8): Add a sftp "fsync@openssh.com" to support calling
fsync(2) on an open file handle.
* sshd(8): Add a ssh_config(5) PermitTTY to disallow TTY allocation,
mirroring the longstanding no-pty authorized_keys option.
* ssh(1): Add a 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:
* 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).
Portable OpenSSH:
* Please note that this is the last version of Portable OpenSSH that
will support versions of OpenSSL prior to 0.9.6. Support (i.e.
SSH_OLD_EVP) will be removed following the 6.5p1 release.
* Portable OpenSSH will attempt compile and link as a Position
Independent Executable on Linux, OS X and OpenBSD on recent gcc-
like compilers. Other platforms and older/other compilers may
request this using the --with-pie configure flag.
* A number of other toolchain-related hardening options are used
automatically if available, including -ftrapv to abort on signed
integer overflow and options to write-protect dynamic linking
information. The use of these options may be disabled using the
--without-hardening configure flag.
* If the toolchain supports it, one of the -fstack-protector-strong,
-fstack-protector-all or -fstack-protector compilation flag are
used to add guards to mitigate attacks based on stack overflows.
The use of these options may be disabled using the
--without-stackprotect configure option.
* sshd(8): Add support for pre-authentication sandboxing using the
Capsicum API introduced in FreeBSD 10.
* Switch to a ChaCha20-based arc4random() PRNG for platforms that do
not provide their own.
* sshd(8): bz#2156: restore Linux oom_adj setting when handling
SIGHUP to maintain behaviour over retart.
* sshd(8): bz#2032: use local username in krb5_kuserok check rather
than full client name which may be of form user@REALM.
* ssh(1), sshd(8): Test for both the presence of ECC NID numbers in
OpenSSL and that they actually work. Fedora (at least) has
NID_secp521r1 that doesn't work.
* bz#2173: use pkg-config --libs to include correct -L location for
libedit.
