1.63 deraadt 437: <li>OpenSSH 8.0
438: <ul>
439: <li>New Features
440: <ul>
441: <li>ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), ssh-add(1): Add support for ECDSA keys in
442: PKCS#11 tokens.
443: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): Add experimental quantum-computing resistant
444: key exchange method, based on a combination of Streamlined NTRU
445: Prime 4591^761 and X25519.
446: <li>ssh-keygen(1): Increase the default RSA key size to 3072 bits,
447: following NIST Special Publication 800-57's guidance for a
448: 128-bit equivalent symmetric security level.
449: <li>ssh(1): Allow "PKCS11Provider=none" to override later instances of
450: the PKCS11Provider directive in ssh_config; bz#2974
451: <li>sshd(8): Add a log message for situations where a connection is
452: dropped for attempting to run a command but a sshd_config
453: ForceCommand=internal-sftp restriction is in effect; bz#2960
454: <li>ssh(1): When prompting whether to record a new host key, accept
455: the key fingerprint as a synonym for "yes". This allows the user
456: to paste a fingerprint obtained out of band at the prompt and
457: have the client do the comparison for you.
458: <li>ssh-keygen(1): When signing multiple certificates on a single
459: command-line invocation, allow automatically incrementing the
460: certificate serial number.
461: <li>scp(1), sftp(1): Accept -J option as an alias to ProxyJump on
462: the scp and sftp command-lines.
463: <li>ssh-agent(1), ssh-pkcs11-helper(8), ssh-add(1): Accept "-v"
464: command-line flags to increase the verbosity of output; pass
465: verbose flags though to subprocesses, such as ssh-pkcs11-helper
466: started from ssh-agent.
467: <li>ssh-add(1): Add a "-T" option to allowing testing whether keys in
468: an agent are usable by performing a signature and a verification.
469: <li>sftp-server(8): Add a "lsetstat@openssh.com" protocol extension
470: that replicates the functionality of the existing SSH2_FXP_SETSTAT
471: operation but does not follow symlinks. bz#2067
472: <li>sftp(1): Add "-h" flag to chown/chgrp/chmod commands to request
473: they do not follow symlinks.
474: <li>sshd(8): Expose $SSH_CONNECTION in the PAM environment. This makes
475: the connection 4-tuple available to PAM modules that wish to use
476: it in decision-making. bz#2741
477: <li>sshd(8): Add a ssh_config "Match final" predicate Matches in same
478: pass as "Match canonical" but doesn't require hostname
479: canonicalisation be enabled. bz#2906
480: <li>sftp(1): Support a prefix of '@' to suppress echo of sftp batch
481: commands; bz#2926
482: <li>ssh-keygen(1): When printing certificate contents using
483: "ssh-keygen -Lf /path/certificate", include the algorithm that
484: the CA used to sign the cert.
485: </ul>
486: <li>Bugfixes
487: <ul>
488: <li>sshd(8): Fix authentication failures when sshd_config contains
489: "AuthenticationMethods any" inside a Match block that overrides
490: a more restrictive default.
491: <li>sshd(8): Avoid sending duplicate keepalives when ClientAliveCount
492: is enabled.
493: <li>sshd(8): Fix two race conditions related to SIGHUP daemon restart.
494: Remnant file descriptors in recently-forked child processes could
495: block the parent sshd's attempt to listen(2) to the configured
496: addresses. Also, the restarting parent sshd could exit before any
497: child processes that were awaiting their re-execution state had
498: completed reading it, leaving them in a fallback path.
499: <li>ssh(1): Fix stdout potentially being redirected to /dev/null when
500: ProxyCommand=- was in use.
501: <li>sshd(8): Avoid sending SIGPIPE to child processes if they attempt
502: to write to stderr after their parent processes have exited;
503: bz#2071
504: <li>ssh(1): Fix bad interaction between the ssh_config ConnectTimeout
505: and ConnectionAttempts directives - connection attempts after the
506: first were ignoring the requested timeout; bz#2918
507: <li>ssh-keyscan(1): Return a non-zero exit status if no keys were
508: found; bz#2903
509: <li>scp(1): Sanitize scp filenames to allow UTF-8 characters without
510: terminal control sequences; bz#2434
511: <li>sshd(8): Fix confusion between ClientAliveInterval and time-based
512: RekeyLimit that could cause connections to be incorrectly closed.
513: bz#2757
514: <li>ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Correct some bugs in PKCS#11 token PIN
515: handling at initial token login. The attempt to read the PIN
516: could be skipped in some cases, particularly on devices with
517: integrated PIN readers. This would lead to an inability to
518: retrieve keys from these tokens. bz#2652
519: <li>ssh(1), ssh-add(1): Support keys on PKCS#11 tokens that set the
520: CKA_ALWAYS_AUTHENTICATE flag by requring a fresh login after the
521: C_SignInit operation. bz#2638
522: <li>ssh(1): Improve documentation for ProxyJump/-J, clarifying that
523: local configuration does not apply to jump hosts.
524: <li>ssh-keygen(1): Clarify manual - ssh-keygen -e only writes
525: public keys, not private.
526: <li>ssh(1), sshd(8): be more strict in processing protocol banners,
527: allowing \r characters only immediately before \n.
528: <li>Various: fix a number of memory leaks, including bz#2942 and
529: bz#2938
530: <li>scp(1), sftp(1): fix calculation of initial bandwidth limits.
531: Account for bytes written before the timer starts and adjust the
532: schedule on which recalculations are performed. Avoids an initial
533: burst of traffic and yields more accurate bandwidth limits;
534: bz#2927
535: <li>sshd(8): Only consider the ext-info-c extension during the initial
536: key eschange. It shouldn't be sent in subsequent ones, but if it
537: is present we should ignore it. This prevents sshd from sending a
538: SSH_MSG_EXT_INFO for REKEX for buggy these clients. bz#2929
539: <li>ssh-keygen(1): Clarify manual that ssh-keygen -F (find host in
540: authorized_keys) and -R (remove host from authorized_keys) options
541: may accept either a bare hostname or a [hostname]:port combo.
542: bz#2935
543: <li>ssh(1): Don't attempt to connect to empty SSH_AUTH_SOCK; bz#2936
544: <li>sshd(8): Silence error messages when sshd fails to load some of
545: the default host keys. Failure to load an explicitly-configured
546: hostkey is still an error, and failure to load any host key is
547: still fatal. pr/103
548: <li>ssh(1): Redirect stderr of ProxyCommands to /dev/null when ssh is
549: started with ControlPersist; prevents random ProxyCommand output
550: from interfering with session output.
551: <li>ssh(1): The ssh client was keeping a redundant ssh-agent socket
552: (leftover from authentication) around for the life of the
553: connection; bz#2912
554: <li>sshd(8): Fix bug in HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes and
555: PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes options. If only RSA-SHA2 siganture types
556: were specified, then authentication would always fail for RSA keys
557: as the monitor checks only the base key (not the signature
558: algorithm) type against *AcceptedKeyTypes. bz#2746
559: <li>ssh(1): Request correct signature types from ssh-agent when
560: certificate keys and RSA-SHA2 signatures are in use.

935: # <b>cd /usr/src</b>
936: # <b>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</b>

939: <tt>sys.tar.gz</tt> contains a source archive starting at <tt>/usr/src/sys</tt>.

970: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
971: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
972: OpenBSD ports system.
973: <p>
974: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
975: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
976: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
977: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
978: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
979: with a command like:
980:
981: <blockquote><pre>
982: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
1.11 beck 983: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_5</b>
1.1 beck 984: </pre></blockquote>
985:
986: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
987: server.]
988: <p>
989: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
990: ports for the 6.5 release will be made available if problems arise.
991: <p>
992: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
993: would like to know more, the mailing list
994: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
