1.1 deraadt 499: <ul>
1.79 ! deraadt 500: <li>Security:
! 501: <ul>
! 502: <li>ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules from paths
! 503: outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable). Requests to
! 504: load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an attacker
! 505: could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the forwarded
! 506: agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this would
! 507: result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if the
! 508: attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
! 509: running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem
! 510: of the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh
! 511: client).
! 512: <li>sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled, forwarded Unix-
! 513: domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the privileges of
! 514: 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release refuses
! 515: Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is disabled
! 516: (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14 years).
! 517: <li>sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key material to
! 518: privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when reading
! 519: keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized keys,
! 520: nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key material
! 521: to unprivileged users.
! 522: <li>sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by pre-authentication
! 523: compression support had a bounds checks that could be elided by
! 524: some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory manager was
! 525: incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression was
! 526: disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
! 527: privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
! 528: process (a compromise of the latter would be required first).
! 529: This release removes support for pre-authentication compression
! 530: from sshd(8).
! 531: <li>sshd(8): Fix denial-of-service condition where an attacker who
! 532: sends multiple KEXINIT messages may consume up to 128MB per
! 533: connection.
! 534: <li>sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
! 535: directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
! 536: ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
! 537: ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match,
! 538: possibly resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
! 539: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle countermeasures
! 540: that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH 7.3 to proceed.
! 541: <li>sftp-client(1): [portable OpenSSH only] On Cygwin, a client making
! 542: a recursive file transfer could be maniuplated by a hostile server to
! 543: perform a path-traversal attack. creating or modifying files outside
! 544: of the intended target directory.
! 545: </ul>
! 546: <li>New/changed features:
! 547: <ul>
! 548: <li>Server support for the SSH v.1 protocol has been removed.
! 549: <li>ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
! 550: block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
! 551: attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the
! 552: only mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems
! 553: connecting to older devices using the default configuration,
! 554: but it's highly likely that such devices already need explicit
! 555: configuration for key exchange and hostkey algorithms already
! 556: anyway.
! 557: <li>sshd(8): Remove support for pre-authentication compression.
! 558: Doing compression early in the protocol probably seemed reasonable
! 559: in the 1990s, but today it's clearly a bad idea in terms of both
! 560: cryptography (cf. multiple compression oracle attacks in TLS) and
! 561: attack surface. Pre-auth compression support has been disabled by
! 562: default for >10 years. Support remains in the client.
! 563: <li>ssh-agent will refuse to load PKCS#11 modules outside a whitelist
! 564: of trusted paths by default. The path whitelist may be specified
! 565: at run-time.
! 566: <li>sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and
! 567: an authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now
! 568: refuse to accept the certificate unless they are identical.
! 569: The previous (documented) behaviour of having the certificate
! 570: forced-command override the other could be a bit confusing and
! 571: error-prone.
! 572: <li>sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support
! 573: for having /bin/login manage login sessions.
! 574: <li>ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
! 575: version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing
! 576: client to communicate with the master process using a subset of
! 577: the SSH packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket,
! 578: with the main process acting as a proxy that translates channel
! 579: IDs, etc. This allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that
! 580: lack file- descriptor passing (used by current multiplexing
! 581: code) and potentially, in conjunction with Unix-domain socket
! 582: forwarding, with the client and multiplexing master process on
! 583: different machines. Multiplexing proxy mode may be invoked using
! 584: "ssh -O proxy ..."
! 585: <li>sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables
! 586: X11, agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well
! 587: as anything else we might implement in the future. Like the
! 588: 'restrict' authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple
! 589: and future-proof way of restricting an account.
! 590: <li>sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange
! 591: method. This is identical to the currently-supported method named
! 592: "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
! 593: <li>sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
! 594: already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3)
! 595: if it is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will
! 596: retain the same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will
! 597: also now unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create
! 598: it after a successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in
! 599: the case of a configuration error.
! 600: <li>sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax
! 601: directives to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
! 602: <li>sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match
! 603: those supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type,
! 604: fingerprint, etc.) and a few more to provide access to the
! 605: contents of the certificate being offered.
! 606: <li>Added regression tests for string matching, address matching and
! 607: string sanitisation functions.
! 608: <li>Improved the key exchange fuzzer harness.
! 609: <li>Deprecate the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation
! 610: option, thereby making privilege separation mandatory. Privilege
! 611: separation has been on by default for almost 15 years and
! 612: sandboxing has been on by default for almost the last five.
! 613: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
! 614: algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
! 615: </ul>
! 616: <li>The following significant bugs have been fixed in this release:
! 617: <ul>
! 618: <li>ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use
! 619: certificates that have no corresponding bare public key.
! 620: certificate id_rsa-cert.pub (and no id_rsa.pub).
! 621: <li>ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple
! 622: authentication is in use and publickey is not just the first
! 623: method attempted.
! 624: <li>ssh-agent(1), ssh(1): improve reporting when attempting to load
! 625: keys from PKCS#11 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more
! 626: detail in debug messages.
! 627: <li>ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't
! 628: pollute stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
! 629: <li>sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before
! 630: suspending sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode
! 631: correctly if suspended during a password prompt.
! 632: <li>ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
! 633: prompt.
! 634: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-
! 635: info messages.
! 636: <li>sshd(8): fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-
! 637: sequence NEWKEYS message.
! 638: <li>sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in
! 639: the server-sig-algs extension.
! 640: <li>sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
! 641: <li>sshd(8): more strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
! 642: separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them
! 643: only when their respective authentication methods are enabled
! 644: in the configuration
! 645: <li>sshd(8): Fix uninitialised optlen in getsockopt() call; harmless
! 646: on Unix/BSD but potentially crashy on Cygwin.
! 647: <li>Fix false positive reports caused by explicit_bzero(3) not being
! 648: recognised as a memory initialiser when compiled with
! 649: -fsanitize-memory.
! 650: <li>sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
! 651: configuration examples.
! 652: <li>sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start
! 653: messages are sent out of sequence.
! 654: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in
! 655: configuration files.
! 656: <li>sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the
! 657: server-sig-algs extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were
! 658: not being correctly advertised.
! 659: <li>ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
! 660: known_hosts processing.
! 661: <li>ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
! 662: file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
! 663: <li>ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option,
! 664: accept RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype.
! 665: Previously, ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-*
! 666: methods were enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa
! 667: method.
! 668: <li>ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file
! 669: lines.
! 670: <li>Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat
! 671: and FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor
! 672: leaks in error paths.
! 673: <li>ssh-keyscan(1): Correctly hash hosts with a port number.
! 674: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
! 675: "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
! 676: <li>ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
! 677: line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat
! 678: square bracket characters specially.
! 679: <li>ssh-keygen(1): Fix corruption of known_hosts when running
! 680: "ssh-keygen -H" on a known_hosts containing already-hashed entries.
! 681: <li>Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol
! 682: 1 support from the server, including the server banner string being
! 683: incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing
! 684: error messages from ssh-keyscan a segfault in sshd
! 685: if protocol v.1 was enabled for the client and sshd_config
! 686: contained references to legacy keys.
! 687: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
! 688: <li>sshd(8): Fix Unix domain socket forwarding for root (regression in
! 689: OpenSSH 7.4).
! 690: <li>sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server
! 691: returns zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
! 692: <li>ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
! 693: encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
! 694: <li>ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
! 695: printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
! 696: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
! 697: feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
! 698: <li>sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
! 699: AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
! 700: matched early.
! 701: <li>ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
! 702: cancellation.
! 703: <li>ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files
! 704: can't be opened.
! 705: <li>sshd(8): Make sshd set GSSAPIStrictAcceptorCheck=yes as the manual page
! 706: (previously incorrectly) advertised.
! 707: <li>sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token
! 708: in AuthorizedKeysCommand.
! 709: <li>sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM;
! 710: <li>ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and

727: functions. Thanks to Tobias Pape.
728:
729: <li> libtls now handles 4 cipher suite groups:
730: <Ul>
731: <li> "secure" (TLSv1.2+AEAD+PFS)
732: <li> "compat" (HIGH:!aNULL)
733: <li> "legacy" (HIGH:MEDIUM:!aNULL)
734: <li> "insecure" (ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL)
735: </ul>
736: This allows for flexibility and finer grained control, rather than
737: having two extremes (an issue raised by Marko Kreen some time ago).
738:
739: <li> Tightened error handling for tls_config_set_ciphers().
740:
741: <li> libtls now always loads CA, key and certificate files at the time the
742: configuration function is called. This simplifies code and results in
743: a single memory based code path being used to provide data to libssl.
744:
745: <li> Add support for OCSP intermediate certificates.
746:
747: <li> Added functions used by stunnel and exim from BoringSSL - this
748: brings in X509_check_host, X509_check_email, X509_check_ip, and
749: X509_check_ip_asc.
750:
751: <li> Added initial support for iOS, thanks to Jacob Berkman.
752:
753: <li> Improved behavior of arc4random on Windows when using memory leak
754: analysis software.
755:
756: <li> Correctly handle an EOF that occurs prior to the TLS handshake
757: completing. Reported by Vasily Kolobkov, based on a diff from Marko
758: Kreen.
759:
760: <li> Limit the support of the "backward compatible" ssl2 handshake to
761: only be used if TLS 1.0 is enabled.
762:
763: <li> Fix incorrect results in certain cases on 64-bit systems when
764: BN_mod_word() can return incorrect results. BN_mod_word() now can
765: return an error condition. Thanks to Brian Smith.
766:
767: <li> Added constant-time updates to address CVE-2016-0702
768:
769: <li> Fixed undefined behavior in BN_GF2m_mod_arr()
770:
771: <li> Removed unused Cryptographic Message Support (CMS)
772:
773: <li> More conversions of long long idioms to time_t
774:
775: <li> Improved compatibility by avoiding printing NULL strings with
776: printf.
777:
778: <li> Reverted change that cleans up the EVP cipher context in
779: EVP_EncryptFinal() and EVP_DecryptFinal(). Some software relies on the
780: previous behaviour.
781:
782: <li> Avoid unbounded memory growth in libssl, which can be triggered
783: by a TLS client repeatedly renegotiating and sending OCSP Status
784: Request TLS extensions.
785:
786: <li> Avoid falling back to a weak digest for (EC)DH when using SNI
787: with libssl.
788:
789: <li> X509_cmp_time() now passes a malformed GeneralizedTime field as
790: an error. Reported by Theofilos Petsios.
791:
792: <li> Detect zero-length encrypted session data early, instead of when
793: malloc(0) fails or the HMAC check fails. Noted independently by
794: jsing@ and Kurt Cancemi.
795:
796: <li> Check for and handle failure of HMAC_{Update,Final} or
797: EVP_DecryptUpdate().
798:
799: <li> Massive update and normalization of manpages, conversion to
800: mandoc format. Many pages were rewritten for clarity and accuracy.
801: Portable doc links are up-to-date with a new conversion tool.
802:
803: <li> Curve25519 Key Exchange support.
804:
805: <li> Support for alternate chains for certificate verification.
806:
807: <li> Code cleanups, CBB conversions, further unification of DTLS/SSL
808: handshake code, further ASN1 macro expansion and removal.
809:
1.64 beck 810: <li> Private symbols are now hidden in libssl and libcrypto.
1.61 beck 811:
812: <li> Friendly certificate verification error messages in libtls, peer
813: verification is now always enabled.
814:
1.64 beck 815: <li> Added OCSP stapling support to libtls and nc.
1.61 beck 816:
817: <li> Added ocspcheck utility to validate a certificate against its OCSP
818: responder and save the reply for stapling
819:
820: <li> Enhanced regression tests and error handling for libtls.
821:
822: <li> Added explicit constant and non-constant time BN functions,
823: defaulting to constant time wherever possible.
824:
825: <li> Moved many leaked implementation details in public structs behind
826: opaque pointers.
827:
828: <li> Added ticket support to libtls.
829:
830: <li> Added support for setting the supported EC curves via
831: SSL{_CTX}_set1_groups{_list}() - also provide defines for the
832: previous SSL{_CTX}_set1_curves{_list} names. This also changes
833: the default list of curves to be X25519, P-256 and P-384. All
834: other curves must be manually enabled.
835:
836: <li> Added -groups option to openssl(1) s_client for specifying the
837: curves to be used in a colon-separated list.
838:
839: <li> Merged client/server version negotiation code paths into one,
840: reducing much duplicate code.
841:
842: <li> Removed error function codes from libssl and libcrypto.
843:
844: <li> Fixed an issue where a truncated packet could crash via an OOB
845: read.
846:
847: <li> Added SSL_OP_NO_CLIENT_RENEGOTIATION option that disallows
848: client-initiated renegotiation. This is the default for libtls
849: servers.
850:
851: <li> Avoid a side-channel cache-timing attack that can leak the ECDSA
852: private keys when signing. This is due to BN_mod_inverse() being
853: used without the constant time flag being set. Reported by Cesar
854: Pereida Garcia and Billy Brumley (Tampere University of
855: Technology). The fix was developed by Cesar Pereida Garcia.
856:
857: <li> iOS and MacOS compatibility updates from Simone Basso and Jacob
858: Berkman.
859:
860: <li> Added the recallocarray(3) memory allocation function, and
861: converted various places in the library to use it, such as CBB
862: and BUF_MEM_grow. recallocarray(3) is similar to
863: reallocarray. Newly allocated memory is cleared similar to
864: calloc(3). Memory that becomes unallocated while shrinking or
865: moving existing allocations is explicitly discarded by unmapping
866: or clearing to 0.
867:
868: <li> Added new root CAs from SECOM Trust Systems / Security
869: Communication of Japan.
870:
871: <li> Added EVP interface for MD5+SHA1 hashes.
872:
873: <li> Fixed DTLS client failures when the server sends a certificate
874: request.
875:
876: <li> Correct handling of padding when upgrading an SSLv2 challenge
877: into an SSLv3/TLS connection.
878:
879: <li> Allow protocols and ciphers to be set on a TLS config object in
880: libtls.
881:
882: <li> Improved nc(1) TLS handshake CPU usage and server-side error
1.65 beck 883: reporting.
884:
885: <li> Add a constant time version of BN_gcd and use it default for
886: BN_gcd to avoid the possibility of sidechannel timing attacks
887: against RSA private key generation - Thanks to Alejandro

1271: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
1272: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
1273: OpenBSD ports system.
1274: <p>
1275: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
1276: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
1277: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1278: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
1279: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
1280: with a command like:
1281:
1282: <blockquote><pre>
1283: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
1284: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_1</b>
1285: </pre></blockquote>
1286:
1287: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1288: server.]
1289: <p>
1290: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1291: ports for the 6.1 release will be made available if problems arise.
1292: <p>
1293: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1294: would like to know more, the mailing list
1295: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
