This is a beta-release (non-production ready)

This release includes:

  • Upstream changes from OpenSSH 9.3p2 and OpenSSH 9.4.

  • Breaking changes - see upstream release notes for more information:

    • the ssh-agent will now refuse requests to load PKCS#11 modules issued by remote clients by default. A flag has been added to restore the previous behavior "-Oallow-remote-pkcs11".
  • Security Fixes:

    • the sshd service will check the $env:ProgramData\ssh folder permissions upon startup to ensure only SYSTEM and Administrator accounts have write access to the folder; similar to the existing check upon install in contrib\win32\openssh\install-sshd.ps1.
  • Non-Security Fixes:

This is a beta-release (non-production ready)

This release includes:

  • Upstream changes from OpenSSH 9.2, which fixes a number of security bugs.

  • Breaking changes - see upstream release notes for more information:

    • adds EnableEscapeCommandline to ssh_config, a new option, that controls whether the client-side ~C escape sequence that provides a command-line is available. EnableEscapeCommandline defaults to "no", which disables the ~C escape sequence that was previously enabled by default.
  • Security:

    • The sftp server will not attempt to add the Mark-of-the-Web (MOTW) for files uploaded from sftp clients, which reverts the behavior added in 9.1. This is on par with scp behavior for file uploads. File download behavior via scp and sftp remains the same as 9.1, with a best effort attempt to add the MOTW. This change was prompted by Community feedback, as discussed in #2029.
  • Fixes for #2018 and #2019.

This is a beta-release (non-production ready)

This release includes:

  • Upstream changes from OpenSSH 9.0 & OpenSSH 9.1.

  • Breaking changes - see upstream release notes for more information:

    • Switches scp from using the legacy scp/rcp protocol to using the sftp protocol by default.
    • 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.
    • ssh-keygen -A (generate all default host key types) will no longer generate DSA keys.
  • Security Fixes:

    • adds Mark of the Web (MOTW) to scp/sftp file transfers, when possible.
  • Fixes for various reliability issues listed here.

  • LibFido2 upgrade to version 1.12.0.
