1.22 jsg 483: <li>OpenSSH 7.7
1.1 deraadt 484: <ul>
485: <li>New/changed features:
486: <ul>
1.47 deraadt 487: <li>All: Add experimental support for PQC XMSS keys (Extended Hash-
488: Based Signatures) based on the algorithm described in
489: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-irtf-cfrg-xmss-hash-based-signatures-12
490: The XMSS signature code is experimental and not compiled in by
491: default.
492: <li>sshd(8): Add a "rdomain" criteria for the sshd_config Match keyword
493: to allow conditional configuration that depends on which routing
494: domain a connection was received on (currently supported on OpenBSD
495: and Linux).
496: <li>sshd_config(5): Add an optional rdomain qualifier to the
497: ListenAddress directive to allow listening on different routing
498: domains. This is supported only on OpenBSD and Linux at present.
499: <li>sshd_config(5): Add RDomain directive to allow the authenticated
500: session to be placed in an explicit routing domain. This is only
501: supported on OpenBSD at present.
502: <li>sshd(8): Add "expiry-time" option for authorized_keys files to
503: allow for expiring keys.
504: <li>ssh(1): Add a BindInterface option to allow binding the outgoing
505: connection to an interface's address (basically a more usable
1.50 jsg 506: BindAddress).
1.47 deraadt 507: <li>ssh(1): Expose device allocated for tun/tap forwarding via a new
508: %T expansion for LocalCommand. This allows LocalCommand to be used
509: to prepare the interface.
510: <li>sshd(8): Expose the device allocated for tun/tap forwarding via a
511: new SSH_TUNNEL environment variable. This allows automatic setup of
512: the interface and surrounding network configuration automatically on
513: the server.
514: <li>ssh(1)/scp(1)/sftp(1): Add URI support to ssh, sftp and scp, e.g.
515: ssh://user@host or sftp://user@host/path. Additional connection
516: parameters described in draft-ietf-secsh-scp-sftp-ssh-uri-04 are not
517: implemented since the ssh fingerprint format in the draft uses the
518: deprecated MD5 hash with no way to specify the any other algorithm.
519: <li>ssh-keygen(1): Allow certificate validity intervals that specify
520: only a start or stop time (instead of both or neither).
521: <li>sftp(1): Allow "cd" and "lcd" commands with no explicit path
522: argument. lcd will change to the local user's home directory as
523: usual. cd will change to the starting directory for session (because
524: the protocol offers no way to obtain the remote user's home
525: directory). bz#2760
526: <li>sshd(8): When doing a config test with sshd -T, only require the
527: attributes that are actually used in Match criteria rather than (an
528: incomplete list of) all criteria.
1.1 deraadt 529: </ul>
530: <li>The following significant bugs have been fixed in this release:
531: <ul>
1.47 deraadt 532: <li>ssh(1)/sshd(8): More strictly check signature types during key
533: exchange against what was negotiated. Prevents downgrade of RSA
534: signatures made with SHA-256/512 to SHA-1.
535: <li>sshd(8): Fix support for client that advertise a protocol version
536: of "1.99" (indicating that they are prepared to accept both SSHv1 and
537: SSHv2). This was broken in OpenSSH 7.6 during the removal of SSHv1
538: support. bz#2810
539: <li>ssh(1): Warn when the agent returns a ssh-rsa (SHA1) signature when
540: a rsa-sha2-256/512 signature was requested. This condition is possible
541: when an old or non-OpenSSH agent is in use. bz#2799
542: <li>ssh-agent(1): Fix regression introduce in 7.6 that caused ssh-agent
543: to fatally exit if presented an invalid signature request message.
544: <li>sshd_config(5): Accept yes/no flag options case-insensitively, as
545: has been the case in ssh_config(5) for a long time. bz#2664
546: <li>ssh(1): Improve error reporting for failures during connection.
547: Under some circumstances misleading errors were being shows. bz#2814
548: <li>ssh-keyscan(1): Add -D option to allow printing of results directly
549: in SSHFP format. bz#2821
550: <li>regress tests: fix PuTTY interop test broken in last release's SSHv1
551: removal. bz#2823
552: <li>ssh(1): Compatibility fix for some servers that erroneously drop the
553: connection when the IUTF8 (RFC8160) option is sent.
554: <li>scp(1): Disable RemoteCommand and RequestTTY in the ssh session
555: started by scp (sftp was already doing this.)
556: <li>ssh-keygen(1): Refuse to create a certificate with an unusable
557: number of principals.
558: <li>ssh-keygen(1): Fatally exit if ssh-keygen is unable to write all the
559: public key during key generation. Previously it would silently
560: ignore errors writing the comment and terminating newline.
561: <li>ssh(1): Do not modify hostname arguments that are addresses by
562: automatically forcing them to lower-case. Instead canonicalise them
563: to resolve ambiguities (e.g. ::0001 => ::1) before they are matched
564: against known_hosts. bz#2763
565: <li>ssh(1): Don't accept junk after "yes" or "no" responses to hostkey
566: prompts. bz#2803
567: <li>sftp(1): Have sftp print a warning about shell cleanliness when
568: decoding the first packet fails, which is usually caused by shells
569: polluting stdout of non-interactive startups. bz#2800
570: <li>ssh(1)/sshd(8): Switch timers in packet code from using wall-clock
571: time to monotonic time, allowing the packet layer to better function
572: over a clock step and avoiding possible integer overflows during
573: steps.
574: <li>Numerous manual page fixes and improvements.

577:
1.22 jsg 578: <li>LibreSSL 2.7.2
1.29 beck 579: <ul>
580: <li> Added support for many OpenSSL 1.0.2 and 1.1 APIs, based on
581: observations of real-world usage in applications. These are
582: implemented in parallel with existing OpenSSL 1.0.1 APIs - visibility
583: changes have not been made to existing structs, allowing code written
584: for older OpenSSL APIs to continue working.
585: <li> Extensive corrections, improvements, and additions to the
586: API documentation, including new public APIs from OpenSSL that had
587: no pre-existing documentation.
588: <li> Added support for automatic library initialization in libcrypto,
589: libssl, and libtls. Support for pthread_once or a compatible
590: equivalent is now required of the target operating system. As a
591: side-effect, minimum Windows support is Vista or higher.
592: <li> Converted more packet handling methods to CBB, which improves
593: resiliency when generating TLS messages.
594: <li> Completed TLS extension handling rewrite, improving consistency of
595: checks for malformed and duplicate extensions.
596: <li>Rewrote ASN1_TYPE_{get,set}_octetstring() using templated ASN.1.
597: This removes the last remaining use of the old M_ASN1_* macros
598: (asn1_mac.h) from API that needs to continue to exist.
599: <li> Added support for client-side session resumption in libtls.
600: A libtls client can specify a session file descriptor (a regular
601: file with appropriate ownership and permissions) and libtls will
602: manage reading and writing of session data across TLS handshakes.
603: <li> Improved support for strict alignment on ARMv7 architectures,
604: conditionally enabling assembly in those cases.
605: <li> Fixed a memory leak in libtls when reusing a tls_config.
606: <li> Merged more DTLS support into the regular TLS code path, removing
607: duplicated code.

! 898: <h3>Notes about the source code</h3>
1.1 deraadt 899:
1.81 ! bentley 900: <code>src.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src</code>.
1.1 deraadt 901: This file contains everything you need except for the kernel sources,
902: which are in a separate archive.
903: To extract:
904:
905: <blockquote><pre>
906: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src</b>
907: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
908: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>
909: </pre></blockquote>
910:
1.81 ! bentley 911: <code>sys.tar.gz</code> contains a source archive starting at <code>/usr/src/sys</code>.
1.1 deraadt 912: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
913: To extract:
914:
915: <blockquote><pre>
916: # <b>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</b>
917: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
918: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</b>
919: </pre></blockquote>
920:
921: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
922: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
923: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
924: Using these files
925: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
926: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

1.1 deraadt 934:
935: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
936:
937: <blockquote><pre>
938: # <b>cd /usr</b>
939: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</b>

941:
942: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
943: if you know nothing about ports
944: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
945: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
946: OpenBSD ports system.
947: <p>
948: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
949: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
950: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
951: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
952: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
953: with a command like:
954:
955: <blockquote><pre>
956: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
957: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_3</b>
958: </pre></blockquote>
959:
960: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
961: server.]
962: <p>
963: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
964: ports for the 6.3 release will be made available if problems arise.
965: <p>
966: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
967: would like to know more, the mailing list
968: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
