-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2014-0646 2014-02-22 00:11:16 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : dropbear Product : Fedora EPEL 6 Version : 2014.63 Release : 1.el6 URL : http://matt.ucc.asn.au/dropbear/dropbear.html Summary : SSH2 server and client Description : Dropbear is a relatively small SSH server and client. Dropbear is particularly useful for "embedded"-type Linux (or other Unix) systems, such as wireless routers.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
2014.63 - Wednesday 19 February 2014
- Fix ~. to terminate a client interactive session after waking a laptop from sleep.
- Changed port separator syntax again, now using host^port. This is because IPv6 link-local addresses use %.
- Avoid constantly relinking dropbearmulti target, fix "make install" for multi target.
- Avoid getting stuck in a loop writing huge key files.
- Don't link dropbearkey or dropbearconvert to libz or libutil.
- Fix linking -lcrypt on systems without /usr/lib.
- Avoid crash on exit due to cleaned up keys before last packets are sent.
- Fix a race condition in rekeying where Dropbear would exit if it received a still-in-flight packet after initiating rekeying. Reported by Oliver Metz. This is a longstanding bug but is triggered more easily since 2013.57
- Fix README for ecdsa keys.
- Ensure that generated RSA keys are always exactly the length requested. Previously Dropbear always generated N+16 or N+15 bit keys.
- Fix DROPBEAR_CLI_IMMEDIATE_AUTH mode which saves a network round trip if the first public key succeeds. Still not enabled by default, needs more compatibility testing with other implementations.
- Fix for port 0 forwarding in the client and port forwarding with Apache MINA SSHD.
- Fix for bad system linux/pkt-sched.h header file with older Linux kernels
- Fix signal handlers so that errno is saved. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
