- Wed Aug 15 2007 Denis Smirnov <mithraen@altlinux.ru> 0.50-alt1
- Add DROPBEAR_PASSWORD environment variable to specify a dbclient password
- Use /dev/urandom by default, since that's what everyone does anyway
- Correct vfork() use for uClinux in scp (thanks to Alex Landau)
- Exit with an exit code of 1 if dropbear can't bind to any ports (thanks to
Nicolai Ehemann)
- Improve network performance and add a -Wargument for
adjusting the tradeoff between network performance and memory consumption.
- Fix a problem where reply packets could be sent during key exchange, in
violation of the SSH spec. This could manifest itself with connections being
terminated after 8 hours with new TCP-forward connections being established.
- Add -Kargument, ensuring that data is transmitted over the
connection at least every N seconds.
- dropbearkey will no longer generate DSS keys of sizes other than 1024 bits,
as required by the DSS specification. (Other sizes are still accepted for use
to provide backwards compatibility). - Thu Mar 1 2007 Denis Smirnov <mithraen@altlinux.ru> 0.49-alt1
- CVE-2007-1099 fix (dbclient previously would prompt to confirm a mismatching
hostkey but wouldn't warn loudly. It will now exit upon a mismatch)
- Added -P pidfile argument to the server (from Swen Schillig)
- Add -N dbclient option for "no command"
- Add -f dbclient option for "background after auth"
- Add ability to limit binding to particular addresses, use -p [address:]port,
patch from Max-Gerd Retzlaff.
- Fix finding relative-path server hostkeys when running daemonized
- Use $HOME in preference to that from /etc/passwd, so that dbclient can still
work on broken systems.
- Fix various issues found by Klocwork defect analysis, mostly memory leaks and
error-handling. Thanks to Klocwork for their service.
- Add compile-time LOG_COMMANDS option to log user commands
- Add '-y' flag to dbclient to unconditionally accept host keys,patch from
Luciano Miguel Ferreira Rocha
- Return immediately for "sleep 10 & echo foo", rather thanwaiting for the
sleep to return (pointed out by Rob Landley).
- Avoid hanging after exit in certain cases (such as scp)
- Various minor fixes, in particular various leaks reported by Erik Hovland
- Disable core dumps on startup
- Don't erase over every single buffer, since it was a bottleneck. On systems
where it really matters, encrypted swap should be utilised.
- Read /dev/[u]random only once at startup to conserve kernel entropy - Sun Nov 26 2006 Denis Smirnov <mithraen@altlinux.ru> 0.48.1-alt1
- upstream version update update (0.48.1)
