ssh: Update to OpenSSH 9.3p1
This release fixes a number of security bugs and has minor new features and bug fixes. Security fixes, from the release notes (https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-9.3):
This release contains fixes for a security problem and a memory safety problem. The memory safety problem is not believed to be exploitable, but we report most network-reachable memory faults as security bugs.
* ssh-add(1): when adding smartcard keys to ssh-agent(1) with the per-hop destination constraints (ssh-add -h ...) added in OpenSSH 8.9, a logic error prevented the constraints from being communicated to the agent. This resulted in the keys being added without constraints. The common cases of non-smartcard keys and keys without destination constraints are unaffected. This problem was reported by Luci Stanescu.
* ssh(1): Portable OpenSSH provides an implementation of the getrrsetbyname(3) function if the standard library does not provide it, for use by the VerifyHostKeyDNS feature. A specifically crafted DNS response could cause this function to perform an out-of-bounds read of adjacent stack data, but this condition does not appear to be exploitable beyond denial-of- service to the ssh(1) client.
The getrrsetbyname(3) replacement is only included if the system's standard library lacks this function and portable OpenSSH was not compiled with the ldns library (--with-ldns). getrrsetbyname(3) is only invoked if using VerifyHostKeyDNS to fetch SSHFP records. This problem was found by the Coverity static analyzer.

ssh: update to OpenSSH 9.2p1
Release notes are available at https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-9.2
OpenSSH 9.2 contains fixes for two security problems and a memory safety problem. The memory safety problem is not believed to be exploitable. These fixes have already been committed to OpenSSH 9.1 in FreeBSD.
Some other notable items from the release notes:
* ssh(1): add a new EnableEscapeCommandline ssh_config(5) option that controls whether the client-side ~C escape sequence that provides a command-line is available. Among other things, the ~C command-line could be used to add additional port-forwards at runtime.
* sshd(8): add support for channel inactivity timeouts via a new sshd_config(5) ChannelTimeout directive. This allows channels that have not seen traffic in a configurable interval to be automatically closed. Different timeouts may be applied to session, X11, agent and TCP forwarding channels.
* sshd(8): add a sshd_config UnusedConnectionTimeout option to terminate client connections that have no open channels for a length of time. This complements the ChannelTimeout option above. * sshd(8): add a -V (version) option to sshd like the ssh client has.
* scp(1), sftp(1): add a -X option to both scp(1) and sftp(1) to allow control over some SFTP protocol parameters: the copy buffer length and the number of in-flight requests, both of which are used during upload/download. Previously these could be controlled in sftp(1) only. This makes them available in both SFTP protocol clients using the same option character sequence. * ssh-keyscan(1): allow scanning of complete CIDR address ranges, e.g. "ssh-keyscan 192.168.0.0/24". If a CIDR range is passed, then it will be expanded to all possible addresses in the range including the all-0s and all-1s addresses. bz#976
* ssh(1): support dynamic remote port forwarding in escape command-line's -R processing. bz#3499

ssh: update to OpenSSH 9.1p1
Release notes are available at https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-9.1
9.1 contains fixes for three minor memory safety problems; these have lready been merged to the copy of OpenSSH 9.0 that is in the FreeBSD base system.
Some highlights copied from the release notes:
Potentially-incompatible changes --------------------------------
* ssh(1), sshd(8): SetEnv directives in ssh_config and sshd_config are now first-match-wins to match other directives. Previously if an environment variable was multiply specified the last set value would have been used. bz3438
* ssh-keygen(8): ssh-keygen -A (generate all default host key types) will no longer generate DSA keys, as these are insecure and have not been used by default for some years.
New features ------------
* ssh(1), sshd(8): add a RequiredRSASize directive to set a minimum RSA key length. Keys below this length will be ignored for user authentication and for host authentication in sshd(8).
* sftp-server(8): add a "users-groups-by-id@openssh.com" extension request that allows the client to obtain user/group names that correspond to a set of uids/gids.
* sftp(1): use "users-groups-by-id@openssh.com" sftp-server extension (when available) to fill in user/group names for directory listings.
* sftp-server(8): support the "home-directory" extension request defined in draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-extensions-00. This overlaps a bit with the existing "expand-path@openssh.com", but some other clients support it.
* ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): allow certificate validity intervals, sshsig verification times and authorized_keys expiry-time options to accept dates in the UTC time zone in addition to the default of interpreting them in the system time zone. YYYYMMDD and YYMMDDHHMM[SS] dates/times will be interpreted as UTC if suffixed with a 'Z' character.
Also allow certificate validity intervals to be specified in raw seconds-since-epoch as hex value, e.g. -V 0x1234:0x4567890. This is intended for use by regress tests and other tools that call ssh-keygen as part of a CA workflow. bz3468
* sftp(1): allow arguments to the sftp -D option, e.g. sftp -D "/usr/libexec/sftp-server -el debug3"
* ssh-keygen(1): allow the existing -U (use agent) flag to work with "-Y sign" operations, where it will be interpreted to require that the private keys is hosted in an agent; bz3429

ssh: update to OpenSSH v8.9p1
Release notes are available at https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-8.9
Some highlights:
* ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-add(1), ssh-agent(1): add a system for restricting forwarding and use of keys added to ssh-agent(1)
* ssh(1), sshd(8): add the sntrup761x25519-sha512@openssh.com hybrid ECDH/x25519 + Streamlined NTRU Prime post-quantum KEX to the default KEXAlgorithms list (after the ECDH methods but before the prime-group DH ones). The next release of OpenSSH is likely to make this key exchange the default method.
* sshd(8), portable OpenSSH only: this release removes in-built support for MD5-hashed passwords. If you require these on your system then we recommend linking against libxcrypt or similar.
Future deprecation notice =========================
A near-future release of OpenSSH will switch scp(1) from using the legacy scp/rcp protocol to using SFTP by default.
Legacy scp/rcp performs wildcard expansion of remote filenames (e.g. "scp host:* .") through the remote shell. This has the side effect of requiring double quoting of shell meta-characters in file names included on scp(1) command-lines, otherwise they could be interpreted as shell commands on the remote side.

openssh: update to OpenSSH v8.7p1
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.
