1.12 matthieu 507: <li>OpenSSH 7.4
1.1 deraadt 508: <ul>
1.79 deraadt 509: <li>Security:
510: <ul>
511: <li>ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules from paths
512: outside a trusted whitelist (run-time configurable). Requests to
513: load modules could be passed via agent forwarding and an attacker
514: could attempt to load a hostile PKCS#11 module across the forwarded
515: agent channel: PKCS#11 modules are shared libraries, so this would
516: result in code execution on the system running the ssh-agent if the
517: attacker has control of the forwarded agent-socket (on the host
518: running the sshd server) and the ability to write to the filesystem
519: of the host running ssh-agent (usually the host running the ssh
520: client).
521: <li>sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled, forwarded Unix-
522: domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the privileges of
523: 'root' instead of the authenticated user. This release refuses
524: Unix-domain socket forwarding when privilege separation is disabled
525: (Privilege separation has been enabled by default for 14 years).
526: <li>sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key material to
527: privilege-separated child processes via realloc() when reading
528: keys. No such leak was observed in practice for normal-sized keys,
529: nor does a leak to the child processes directly expose key material
530: to unprivileged users.
531: <li>sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by pre-authentication
532: compression support had a bounds checks that could be elided by
533: some optimising compilers. Additionally, this memory manager was
534: incorrectly accessible when pre-authentication compression was
535: disabled. This could potentially allow attacks against the
536: privileged monitor process from the sandboxed privilege-separation
537: process (a compromise of the latter would be required first).
538: This release removes support for pre-authentication compression
539: from sshd(8).
540: <li>sshd(8): Fix denial-of-service condition where an attacker who
541: sends multiple KEXINIT messages may consume up to 128MB per
542: connection.
543: <li>sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers
544: directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid
545: ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address
546: ranges (e.g. user@127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match,
547: possibly resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
548: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Fix weakness in CBC padding oracle countermeasures
549: that allowed a variant of the attack fixed in OpenSSH 7.3 to proceed.
550: </ul>
551: <li>New/changed features:
552: <ul>
553: <li>Server support for the SSH v.1 protocol has been removed.
554: <li>ssh(1): Remove 3des-cbc from the client's default proposal. 64-bit
555: block ciphers are not safe in 2016 and we don't want to wait until
556: attacks like SWEET32 are extended to SSH. As 3des-cbc was the
557: only mandatory cipher in the SSH RFCs, this may cause problems
558: connecting to older devices using the default configuration,
559: but it's highly likely that such devices already need explicit
560: configuration for key exchange and hostkey algorithms already
561: anyway.
562: <li>sshd(8): Remove support for pre-authentication compression.
563: Doing compression early in the protocol probably seemed reasonable
564: in the 1990s, but today it's clearly a bad idea in terms of both
565: cryptography (cf. multiple compression oracle attacks in TLS) and
566: attack surface. Pre-auth compression support has been disabled by
567: default for >10 years. Support remains in the client.
568: <li>ssh-agent will refuse to load PKCS#11 modules outside a whitelist
569: of trusted paths by default. The path whitelist may be specified
570: at run-time.
571: <li>sshd(8): When a forced-command appears in both a certificate and
572: an authorized keys/principals command= restriction, sshd will now
573: refuse to accept the certificate unless they are identical.
574: The previous (documented) behaviour of having the certificate
575: forced-command override the other could be a bit confusing and
576: error-prone.
577: <li>sshd(8): Remove the UseLogin configuration directive and support
578: for having /bin/login manage login sessions.
579: <li>ssh(1): Add a proxy multiplexing mode to ssh(1) inspired by the
580: version in PuTTY by Simon Tatham. This allows a multiplexing
581: client to communicate with the master process using a subset of
582: the SSH packet and channels protocol over a Unix-domain socket,
583: with the main process acting as a proxy that translates channel
584: IDs, etc. This allows multiplexing mode to run on systems that
585: lack file- descriptor passing (used by current multiplexing
586: code) and potentially, in conjunction with Unix-domain socket
587: forwarding, with the client and multiplexing master process on
588: different machines. Multiplexing proxy mode may be invoked using
589: "ssh -O proxy ..."
590: <li>sshd(8): Add a sshd_config DisableForwarding option that disables
591: X11, agent, TCP, tunnel and Unix domain socket forwarding, as well
592: as anything else we might implement in the future. Like the
593: 'restrict' authorized_keys flag, this is intended to be a simple
594: and future-proof way of restricting an account.
595: <li>sshd(8), ssh(1): Support the "curve25519-sha256" key exchange
596: method. This is identical to the currently-supported method named
597: "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org".
598: <li>sshd(8): Improve handling of SIGHUP by checking to see if sshd is
599: already daemonised at startup and skipping the call to daemon(3)
600: if it is. This ensures that a SIGHUP restart of sshd(8) will
601: retain the same process-ID as the initial execution. sshd(8) will
602: also now unlink the PidFile prior to SIGHUP restart and re-create
603: it after a successful restart, rather than leaving a stale file in
604: the case of a configuration error.
605: <li>sshd(8): Allow ClientAliveInterval and ClientAliveCountMax
606: directives to appear in sshd_config Match blocks.
607: <li>sshd(8): Add %-escapes to AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand to match
608: those supported by AuthorizedKeysCommand (key, key type,
609: fingerprint, etc.) and a few more to provide access to the
610: contents of the certificate being offered.
611: <li>Added regression tests for string matching, address matching and
612: string sanitisation functions.
613: <li>Improved the key exchange fuzzer harness.
614: <li>Deprecate the sshd_config UsePrivilegeSeparation
615: option, thereby making privilege separation mandatory. Privilege
616: separation has been on by default for almost 15 years and
617: sandboxing has been on by default for almost the last five.
618: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Support "=-" syntax to easily remove methods from
619: algorithm lists, e.g. Ciphers=-*cbc.
620: </ul>
621: <li>The following significant bugs have been fixed in this release:
622: <ul>
623: <li>ssh(1): Allow IdentityFile to successfully load and use
624: certificates that have no corresponding bare public key.
625: certificate id_rsa-cert.pub (and no id_rsa.pub).
626: <li>ssh(1): Fix public key authentication when multiple
627: authentication is in use and publickey is not just the first
628: method attempted.
629: <li>ssh-agent(1), ssh(1): improve reporting when attempting to load
630: keys from PKCS#11 tokens with fewer useless log messages and more
631: detail in debug messages.
632: <li>ssh(1): When tearing down ControlMaster connections, don't
633: pollute stderr when LogLevel=quiet.
634: <li>sftp(1): On ^Z wait for underlying ssh(1) to suspend before
635: suspending sftp(1) to ensure that ssh(1) restores the terminal mode
636: correctly if suspended during a password prompt.
637: <li>ssh(1): Avoid busy-wait when ssh(1) is suspended during a password
638: prompt.
639: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Correctly report errors during sending of ext-
640: info messages.
641: <li>sshd(8): fix NULL-deref crash if sshd(8) received an out-of-
642: sequence NEWKEYS message.
643: <li>sshd(8): Correct list of supported signature algorithms sent in
644: the server-sig-algs extension.
645: <li>sshd(8): Fix sending ext_info message if privsep is disabled.
646: <li>sshd(8): more strictly enforce the expected ordering of privilege
647: separation monitor calls used for authentication and allow them
648: only when their respective authentication methods are enabled
649: in the configuration
650: <li>sshd(8): Fix uninitialised optlen in getsockopt() call; harmless
651: on Unix/BSD but potentially crashy on Cygwin.
652: <li>Fix false positive reports caused by explicit_bzero(3) not being
653: recognised as a memory initialiser when compiled with
654: -fsanitize-memory.
655: <li>sshd_config(5): Use 2001:db8::/32, the official IPv6 subnet for
656: configuration examples.
657: <li>sshd(1): Fix NULL dereference crash when key exchange start
658: messages are sent out of sequence.
659: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow form-feed characters to appear in
660: configuration files.
661: <li>sshd(8): Fix regression in OpenSSH 7.4 support for the
662: server-sig-algs extension, where SHA2 RSA signature methods were
663: not being correctly advertised.
664: <li>ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1): Fix a number of case-sensitivity bugs in
665: known_hosts processing.
666: <li>ssh(1): Allow ssh to use certificates accompanied by a private key
667: file but no corresponding plain *.pub public key.
668: <li>ssh(1): When updating hostkeys using the UpdateHostKeys option,
669: accept RSA keys if HostkeyAlgorithms contains any RSA keytype.
670: Previously, ssh could ignore RSA keys when only the ssh-rsa-sha2-*
671: methods were enabled in HostkeyAlgorithms and not the old ssh-rsa
672: method.
673: <li>ssh(1): Detect and report excessively long configuration file
674: lines.
675: <li>Merge a number of fixes found by Coverity and reported via Redhat
676: and FreeBSD. Includes fixes for some memory and file descriptor
677: leaks in error paths.
678: <li>ssh-keyscan(1): Correctly hash hosts with a port number.
679: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): When logging long messages to stderr, don't truncate
680: "\r\n" if the length of the message exceeds the buffer.
681: <li>ssh(1): Fully quote [host]:port in generated ProxyJump/-J command-
682: line; avoid confusion over IPv6 addresses and shells that treat
683: square bracket characters specially.
684: <li>ssh-keygen(1): Fix corruption of known_hosts when running
685: "ssh-keygen -H" on a known_hosts containing already-hashed entries.
686: <li>Fix various fallout and sharp edges caused by removing SSH protocol
687: 1 support from the server, including the server banner string being
688: incorrectly terminated with only \n (instead of \r\n), confusing
689: error messages from ssh-keyscan a segfault in sshd
690: if protocol v.1 was enabled for the client and sshd_config
691: contained references to legacy keys.
692: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Free fd_set on connection timeout.
693: <li>sshd(8): Fix Unix domain socket forwarding for root (regression in
694: OpenSSH 7.4).
695: <li>sftp(1): Fix division by zero crash in "df" output when server
696: returns zero total filesystem blocks/inodes.
697: <li>ssh(1), ssh-add(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): Translate OpenSSL errors
698: encountered during key loading to more meaningful error codes.
699: <li>ssh-keygen(1): Sanitise escape sequences in key comments sent to
700: printf but preserve valid UTF-8 when the locale supports it.
701: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Return reason for port forwarding failures where
702: feasible rather than always "administratively prohibited".
703: <li>sshd(8): Fix deadlock when AuthorizedKeysCommand or
704: AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand produces a lot of output and a key is
705: matched early.
706: <li>ssh(1): Fix typo in ~C error message for bad port forward
707: cancellation.
708: <li>ssh(1): Show a useful error message when included config files
709: can't be opened.
710: <li>sshd(8): Make sshd set GSSAPIStrictAcceptorCheck=yes as the manual page
711: (previously incorrectly) advertised.
712: <li>sshd_config(5): Repair accidentally-deleted mention of %k token
713: in AuthorizedKeysCommand.
714: <li>sshd(8): Remove vestiges of previously removed LOGIN_PROGRAM;
715: <li>ssh-agent(1): Relax PKCS#11 whitelist to include libexec and
716: common 32-bit compatibility library directories.
717: <li>sftp-client(1): Fix non-exploitable integer overflow in SSH2_FXP_NAME
718: response handling.
719: <li>ssh-agent(1): Fix regression in 7.4 of deleting PKCS#11-hosted

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

1177: <blockquote><pre>
1178: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
1179: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>

1195: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.

1197: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from

1213: if you know nothing about ports
1214: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
1215: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
1216: OpenBSD ports system.
1217: <p>
1218: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
1219: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
1220: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1221: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
1222: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
1223: with a command like:
1224:
1225: <blockquote><pre>
1226: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
1227: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_1</b>
1228: </pre></blockquote>
1229:
1230: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1231: server.]
1232: <p>
1233: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1234: ports for the 6.1 release will be made available if problems arise.
1235: <p>
1236: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1237: would like to know more, the mailing list
1238: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
