news 28 Posted December 24, 2016 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 [slackware-security] openssh (SSA:2016-358-02) New openssh packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, and -current to fix security issues. Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/openssh-7.4p1-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded. This is primarily a bugfix release, and also addresses security issues. ssh-agent(1): Will now refuse to load PKCS#11 modules from paths outside a trusted whitelist. sshd(8): When privilege separation is disabled, forwarded Unix-domain sockets would be created by sshd(8) with the privileges of 'root'. sshd(8): Avoid theoretical leak of host private key material to privilege-separated child processes via realloc(). sshd(8): The shared memory manager used by pre-authentication compression support had a bounds checks that could be elided by some optimising compilers to potentially allow attacks against the privileged monitor. process from the sandboxed privilege-separation process. sshd(8): Validate address ranges for AllowUser and DenyUsers directives at configuration load time and refuse to accept invalid ones. It was previously possible to specify invalid CIDR address ranges (e.g. user ( -at -) 127.1.2.3/55) and these would always match, possibly resulting in granting access where it was not intended.
