-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2013-2206 2013-02-09 10:46:11 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : openssh Product : Fedora 17 Version : 5.9p1 Release : 29.fc17 URL : http://www.openssh.com/portable.html Summary : An open source implementation of SSH protocol versions 1 and 2 Description : SSH (Secure SHell) is a program for logging into and executing commands on a remote machine. SSH is intended to replace rlogin and rsh, and to provide secure encrypted communications between two untrusted hosts over an insecure network. X11 connections and arbitrary TCP/IP ports can also be forwarded over the secure channel. OpenSSH is OpenBSD's version of the last free version of SSH, bringing it up to date in terms of security and features. This package includes the core files necessary for both the OpenSSH client and server. To make this package useful, you should also install openssh-clients, openssh-server, or both. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update changes default of MaxStartups to 10:30:100 to start doing random early drop at 10 connections up to 100 connections - CVE-2010-5107 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Feb 8 2013 Petr Lautrbach <plautrba@redhat.com> 5.9p1-29 + 0.9.3-1 - change default value of MaxStartups - CVE-2010-5107 (#908707) * Mon Nov 26 2012 Petr Lautrbach <plautrba@redhat.com> 5.9p1-28 + 0.9.3-1 - avoid xfree(NULL) in ssh_selinux_copy_context() (#789502) - fix the man moduli page (#841065) - fix the required authentications patch (#872608) - fix IPQoS not being set on non-mapped v4-in-v6 addressed connections (#861818) * Wed Oct 31 2012 Petr Lautrbach <plautrba@redhat.com> 5.9p1-27 + 0.9.3-1 - don't use /bin and /sbin paths (#856590) - fix gssapi canohost patch (#863350) * Mon Aug 6 2012 Petr Lautrbach <plautrba@redhat.com> 5.9p1-26 + 0.9.3-1 - change SELinux context also for root user (#827109) * Fri Jul 27 2012 Petr Lautrbach <plautrba@redhat.com> 5.9p1-25 + 0.9.3-1 - fix various issues in openssh-5.9p1-required-authentications.patch * Tue Jul 17 2012 Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> 5.9p1-24 + 0.9.3-1 - allow sha256 and sha512 hmacs in the FIPS mode * Fri Jun 22 2012 Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> 5.9p1-23 + 0.9.3-1 - fix segfault in su when pam_ssh_agent_auth is used and the ssh-agent is not running, most probably not exploitable - update pam_ssh_agent_auth to 0.9.3 upstream version -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #908707 - CVE-2010-5107 openssh: Prevent connection slot exhaustion attacks https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=908707 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
