Future deprecation notice
=========================

OpenSSH plans to remove support for the DSA signature algorithm in
early 2025.

Potentially-incompatible changes
--------------------------------

* ssh(1): remove support for pre-authentication compression.

* ssh(1), sshd(8): processing of the arguments to the "Match"
configuration directive now follows more shell-like rules for
quoted strings, including allowing nested quotes and \-escaped
characters.

New features
------------

* ssh(1), sshd(8): add support for a new hybrid post-quantum key
exchange based on the FIPS 203 Module-Lattice Key Enapsulation
mechanism (ML-KEM) combined with X25519 ECDH as described by
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-kampanakis-curdle-ssh-pq-ke-03
This algorithm "mlkem768x25519-sha256" is available by default.

* ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-agent(1): prevent private keys from being
included in core dump files for most of their lifespans. This is
in addition to pre-existing controls in ssh-agent(1) and sshd(8)
that prevented coredumps. This feature is supported on OpenBSD,
Linux and FreeBSD.

* All: convert key handling to use the libcrypto EVP_PKEY API, with
the exception of DSA.

Bugfixes
--------

* sshd(8): do not apply authorized_keys options when signature
verification fails. Prevents more restrictive key options being
incorrectly applied to subsequent keys in authorized_keys. bz3733

* ssh-keygen(1): include pathname in some of ssh-keygen's passphrase
prompts. Helps the user know what's going on when ssh-keygen is
invoked via other tools. Requested in GHPR503

* ssh(1), ssh-add(1): make parsing user@host consistently look for
the last '@' in the string rather than the first. This makes it
possible to more consistently use usernames that contain '@'
characters.

* ssh(1), sshd(8): be more strict in parsing key type names. Only
allow short names (e.g "rsa") in user-interface code and require
full SSH protocol names (e.g. "ssh-rsa") everywhere else. bz3725

* ssh-keygen(1): clarify that ed25519 is the default key type
generated and clarify that rsa-sha2-512 is the default signature
scheme when RSA is in use. GHPR505

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

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.
