Hello all,
New feature and security release was just published
https://www.roumenpetrov.info/secsh/#news20190616 .
(x) Security:
* ensure that X.509 key is validated if is used key is authorized by
command and if validation is not first:
Work-around is to set daemon option ValidateFirst to yes if
configuration uses authorized keys command.
(x) Features:
* added algorithm x509v3-rsa2048-sha256 (RFC 6187)
For compatibility reasons is not used by default yet.
It use could be forced with respective options that control used
algorithms.
* export more android properties to child session:
Added ANDROID_STORAGE, ANDROID_RUNTIME_ROOT, ANDROID_TZDATA_ROOT and
SYSTEMSERVERCLASSPATH.
* when signing custom certificates with an RSA key, default to using the
rsa-sha2-256 signature format:
Custom certificates signed by RSA keys will therefore be incompatible
with PKIX-SSH < 8.8 or OpenSSH < 7.2 unless the default is overridden.
* allow to test daemon configuration containing match directive without
to specify connection parameters:
Assume any attribute not provided by -C does not match.
* check for user at host when parsing sftp target:
This allows user@[1.2.3.4] to work without a path in addition to with
one.
(x) Bugs:
* restore support pkcs#11 provided X.509 keys in agent:
Regression in 12.0 release.
* no-op implementation of pam_putenv:
Some platforms such as HP-UX do not have pam_putenv.
(x) Misc:
* check authorization files first before authorized keys command
* improve experimental implementation for ldap X.509 lookup based on
OpenSSL STORE API
* fixed some memory leaks
* improved some debug messages
* finalize removal of obsolete "X.509 key type" items from ssh key-type
enumerate and related.
Regards,
Roumen Petrov
