From the release notes: Changes since OpenSSH 9.3 ========================= This release fixes a security bug. Security ======== Fix CVE-2023-38408 - a condition where specific libaries loaded via ssh-agent(1)'s PKCS#11 support could be abused to achieve remote code execution via a forwarded agent socket if the following conditions are met: * Exploitation requires the presence of specific libraries on the victim system. * Remote exploitation requires that the agent was forwarded to an attacker-controlled system. Exploitation can also be prevented by starting ssh-agent(1) with an empty PKCS#11/FIDO allowlist (ssh-agent -P '') or by configuring an allowlist that contains only specific provider libraries. This vulnerability was discovered and demonstrated to be exploitable by the Qualys Security Advisory team. In addition to removing the main precondition for exploitation, this release removes the ability for remote ssh-agent(1) clients to load PKCS#11 modules by default (see below). Potentially-incompatible changes -------------------------------- * ssh-agent(8): the agent will now refuse requests to load PKCS#11 modules issued by remote clients by default. A flag has been added to restore the previous behaviour "-Oallow-remote-pkcs11". Note that ssh-agent(8) depends on the SSH client to identify requests that are remote. The OpenSSH >=8.9 ssh(1) client does this, but forwarding access to an agent socket using other tools may circumvent this restriction. CVE: CVE-2023-38408 Sponsored by: The FreeBSD Foundation |

Other patches and addons for OpenSSH. Please send submissions to djm@mindrot.org Externally maintained --------------------- SSH Proxy Command -- connect.c Shun-ichi GOTO <gotoh@imasy.or.jp> has written a very useful ProxyCommand which allows the use of outbound SSH from behind a SOCKS4, SOCKS5 or https CONNECT style proxy server. His page for connect.c has extensive documentation on its use as well as compiled versions for Win32. https://bitbucket.org/gotoh/connect/wiki/Home X11 SSH Askpass: Jim Knoble <jmknoble@pobox.com> has written an excellent X11 passphrase requester. This is highly recommended: http://www.jmknoble.net/software/x11-ssh-askpass/ In this directory ----------------- ssh-copy-id: Phil Hands' <phil@hands.com> shell script to automate the process of adding your public key to a remote machine's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file. gnome-ssh-askpass[12]: A GNOME and Gtk2 passphrase requesters. Use "make gnome-ssh-askpass1" or "make gnome-ssh-askpass2" to build. sshd.pam.generic: A generic PAM config file which may be useful on your system. YMMV sshd.pam.freebsd: A PAM config file which works with FreeBSD's PAM port. Contributed by Dominik Brettnacher <domi@saargate.de> findssl.sh: Search for all instances of OpenSSL headers and libraries and print their versions. This is intended to help diagnose OpenSSH's "OpenSSL headers do not match your library" errors. aix: Files to build an AIX native (installp or SMIT installable) package. caldera: RPM spec file and scripts for building Caldera OpenLinuix packages cygwin: Support files for Cygwin hpux: Support files for HP-UX redhat: RPM spec file and scripts for building Redhat packages suse: RPM spec file and scripts for building SuSE packages
