Some notable changes, from upstream's release notes: - sshd(8): Remove support for obsolete "host/port" syntax. - ssh(1): When prompting whether to record a new host key, accept the key fingerprint as a synonym for "yes". - ssh-keygen(1): when acting as a CA and signing certificates with an RSA key, default to using the rsa-sha2-512 signature algorithm. - ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-keygen(1): this release removes the "ssh-rsa" (RSA/SHA1) algorithm from those accepted for certificate signatures. - ssh-sk-helper(8): this is a new binary. It is used by the FIDO/U2F support to provide address-space isolation for token middleware libraries (including the internal one). - ssh(1): this release enables UpdateHostkeys by default subject to some conservative preconditions. - scp(1): this release changes the behaviour of remote to remote copies (e.g. "scp host-a:/path host-b:") to transfer through the local host by default. - scp(1): experimental support for transfers using the SFTP protocol as a replacement for the venerable SCP/RCP protocol that it has traditionally used. Additional integration work is needed to support FIDO/U2F in the base system. Deprecation Notice ------------------ OpenSSH will disable the ssh-rsa signature scheme by default in the next release.

This is the port of OpenBSD's excellent OpenSSH[0] to Linux and other
|
|
Unices.
|
|
|
|
OpenSSH is based on the last free version of Tatu Ylonen's sample
|
|
implementation with all patent-encumbered algorithms removed (to
|
|
external libraries), all known security bugs fixed, new features
|
|
reintroduced and many other clean-ups. OpenSSH has been created by
|
|
Aaron Campbell, Bob Beck, Markus Friedl, Niels Provos, Theo de Raadt,
|
|
and Dug Song. It has a homepage at https://www.openssh.com/
|
|
|
|
This port consists of the re-introduction of autoconf support, PAM
|
|
support, EGD/PRNGD support and replacements for OpenBSD library
|
|
functions that are (regrettably) absent from other unices. This port
|
|
has been best tested on AIX, Cygwin, HP-UX, Linux, MacOS/X,
|
|
FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, OpenServer, Solaris and UnixWare.
|
|
|
|
This version actively tracks changes in the OpenBSD CVS repository.
|
|
|
|
The PAM support is now more functional than the popular packages of
|
|
commercial ssh-1.2.x. It checks "account" and "session" modules for
|
|
all logins, not just when using password authentication.
|
|
|
|
There is now several mailing lists for this port of OpenSSH. Please
|
|
refer to https://www.openssh.com/list.html for details on how to join.
|
|
|
|
Please send bug reports and patches to https://bugzilla.mindrot.org or
|
|
the mailing list openssh-unix-dev@mindrot.org. To mitigate spam, the
|
|
list only allows posting from subscribed addresses. Code contribution
|
|
are welcomed, but please follow the OpenBSD style guidelines[1].
|
|
|
|
Please refer to the INSTALL document for information on dependencies and
|
|
how to install OpenSSH on your system.

Miscellania -
|
|
|
|
This version of OpenSSH is based upon code retrieved from the OpenBSD CVS
|
|
repository which in turn was based on the last free sample implementation
|
|
released by Tatu Ylonen.
