This release fixes a number of security bugs and has minor new
features and bug fixes. Security fixes, from the release notes
(https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-9.3):
This release contains fixes for a security problem and a memory
safety problem. The memory safety problem is not believed to be
exploitable, but we report most network-reachable memory faults as
security bugs.
* ssh-add(1): when adding smartcard keys to ssh-agent(1) with the
per-hop destination constraints (ssh-add -h ...) added in OpenSSH
8.9, a logic error prevented the constraints from being
communicated to the agent. This resulted in the keys being added
without constraints. The common cases of non-smartcard keys and
keys without destination constraints are unaffected. This problem
was reported by Luci Stanescu.
* ssh(1): Portable OpenSSH provides an implementation of the
getrrsetbyname(3) function if the standard library does not
provide it, for use by the VerifyHostKeyDNS feature. A
specifically crafted DNS response could cause this function to
perform an out-of-bounds read of adjacent stack data, but this
condition does not appear to be exploitable beyond denial-of-
service to the ssh(1) client.
The getrrsetbyname(3) replacement is only included if the system's
standard library lacks this function and portable OpenSSH was not
compiled with the ldns library (--with-ldns). getrrsetbyname(3) is
only invoked if using VerifyHostKeyDNS to fetch SSHFP records. This
problem was found by the Coverity static analyzer.

Release notes are available at https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-9.2
OpenSSH 9.2 contains fixes for two security problems and a memory safety
problem. The memory safety problem is not believed to be exploitable.
These fixes have already been committed to OpenSSH 9.1 in FreeBSD.
Some other notable items from the release notes:
* ssh(1): add a new EnableEscapeCommandline ssh_config(5) option that
controls whether the client-side ~C escape sequence that provides a
command-line is available. Among other things, the ~C command-line
could be used to add additional port-forwards at runtime.
* sshd(8): add support for channel inactivity timeouts via a new
sshd_config(5) ChannelTimeout directive. This allows channels that
have not seen traffic in a configurable interval to be
automatically closed. Different timeouts may be applied to session,
X11, agent and TCP forwarding channels.
* sshd(8): add a sshd_config UnusedConnectionTimeout option to
terminate client connections that have no open channels for a
length of time. This complements the ChannelTimeout option above.
* sshd(8): add a -V (version) option to sshd like the ssh client has.
* scp(1), sftp(1): add a -X option to both scp(1) and sftp(1) to
allow control over some SFTP protocol parameters: the copy buffer
length and the number of in-flight requests, both of which are used
during upload/download. Previously these could be controlled in
sftp(1) only. This makes them available in both SFTP protocol
clients using the same option character sequence.
* ssh-keyscan(1): allow scanning of complete CIDR address ranges,
e.g. "ssh-keyscan 192.168.0.0/24". If a CIDR range is passed, then
it will be expanded to all possible addresses in the range
including the all-0s and all-1s addresses. bz#976
* ssh(1): support dynamic remote port forwarding in escape
command-line's -R processing. bz#3499

Release notes are available at https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-9.1
9.1 contains fixes for three minor memory safety problems; these have
lready been merged to the copy of OpenSSH 9.0 that is in the FreeBSD base
system.
Some highlights copied from the release notes:
Potentially-incompatible changes
--------------------------------
* ssh(1), sshd(8): 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. bz3438
* ssh-keygen(8): ssh-keygen -A (generate all default host key types)
will no longer generate DSA keys, as these are insecure and have
not been used by default for some years.
New features
------------
* ssh(1), sshd(8): add a RequiredRSASize directive to set a minimum
RSA key length. Keys below this length will be ignored for user
authentication and for host authentication in sshd(8).
* sftp-server(8): add a "users-groups-by-id@openssh.com" extension
request that allows the client to obtain user/group names that
correspond to a set of uids/gids.
* sftp(1): use "users-groups-by-id@openssh.com" sftp-server
extension (when available) to fill in user/group names for
directory listings.
* sftp-server(8): support the "home-directory" extension request
defined in draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-extensions-00. This overlaps
a bit with the existing "expand-path@openssh.com", but some other
clients support it.
* ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8): allow certificate validity intervals,
sshsig verification times and authorized_keys expiry-time options
to accept dates in the UTC time zone in addition to the default
of interpreting them in the system time zone. YYYYMMDD and
YYMMDDHHMM[SS] dates/times will be interpreted as UTC if suffixed
with a 'Z' character.
Also allow certificate validity intervals to be specified in raw
seconds-since-epoch as hex value, e.g. -V 0x1234:0x4567890. This
is intended for use by regress tests and other tools that call
ssh-keygen as part of a CA workflow. bz3468
* sftp(1): allow arguments to the sftp -D option, e.g. sftp -D
"/usr/libexec/sftp-server -el debug3"
* ssh-keygen(1): allow the existing -U (use agent) flag to work
with "-Y sign" operations, where it will be interpreted to require
that the private keys is hosted in an agent; bz3429

most programs in ports are looking for .pc files in order to get the
necessary information on how to compile and link against openssl.
The ports now also has a way to hide or force a path for pkgconf.
Providing .pc files along with openssl in base will allow (once all
the supported version of FreeBSD has it) so improve the framework to
deal with openssl in base vs openssl in ports (and libressl)
This will also greatly reduce the number of patches necessary to
workaround the build systems which only knows how to detect where
openssl is installed via pkgconf.

This file is full of strict aliasing violations. Previously it was only
optimised in ways that broke the code by CHERI LLVM, but now it appears
that the in-tree LLVM also breaks it for RISC-V, resulting in broken
ECDSA signature validation with error messages like the following:
root@unmatched:/usr/src # ssh-keygen -l -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key is not a key file.

Some highlights:
* ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-add(1), ssh-agent(1): add a system for
restricting forwarding and use of keys added to ssh-agent(1)
* ssh(1), sshd(8): add the sntrup761x25519-sha512@openssh.com hybrid
ECDH/x25519 + Streamlined NTRU Prime post-quantum KEX to the
default KEXAlgorithms list (after the ECDH methods but before the
prime-group DH ones). The next release of OpenSSH is likely to
make this key exchange the default method.
* sshd(8), portable OpenSSH only: this release removes in-built
support for MD5-hashed passwords. If you require these on your
system then we recommend linking against libxcrypt or similar.
Future deprecation notice
=========================
A near-future release of OpenSSH will switch scp(1) from using the
legacy scp/rcp protocol to using SFTP by default.
Legacy scp/rcp performs wildcard expansion of remote filenames (e.g.
"scp host:* .") through the remote shell. This has the side effect of
requiring double quoting of shell meta-characters in file names
included on scp(1) command-lines, otherwise they could be interpreted
as shell commands on the remote side.

An upcoming OpenSSH update has multiple config.h settings that change
depending on whether builtin security key support is enabled. Prepare
for this by moving ENABLE_SK_INTERNAL to a new sk_config.h header
(similar to the approach used for optional krb5 support) and optionally
including that, instead of defining the macro directly from CFLAGS.

Description of FIDO/U2F support (from OpenSSH 8.2 release notes,
https://www.openssh.com/txt/release-8.2):
This release adds support for FIDO/U2F hardware authenticators to
OpenSSH. U2F/FIDO are open standards for inexpensive two-factor
authentication hardware that are widely used for website
authentication. In OpenSSH FIDO devices are supported by new public
key types "ecdsa-sk" and "ed25519-sk", along with corresponding
certificate types.
ssh-keygen(1) may be used to generate a FIDO token-backed key, after
which they may be used much like any other key type supported by
OpenSSH, so long as the hardware token is attached when the keys are
used. FIDO tokens also generally require the user explicitly
authorise operations by touching or tapping them.
Generating a FIDO key requires the token be attached, and will
usually require the user tap the token to confirm the operation:
$ ssh-keygen -t ecdsa-sk -f ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa_sk
Generating public/private ecdsa-sk key pair.
You may need to touch your security key to authorize key generation.
Enter file in which to save the key (/home/djm/.ssh/id_ecdsa_sk):
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in /home/djm/.ssh/id_ecdsa_sk
Your public key has been saved in /home/djm/.ssh/id_ecdsa_sk.pub
This will yield a public and private key-pair. The private key file
should be useless to an attacker who does not have access to the
physical token. After generation, this key may be used like any
other supported key in OpenSSH and may be listed in authorized_keys,
added to ssh-agent(1), etc. The only additional stipulation is that
the FIDO token that the key belongs to must be attached when the key
is used.
To enable FIDO/U2F support, this change regenerates ssh_namespace.h,
adds ssh-sk-helper, and sets ENABLE_SK_INTERNAL (unless building
WITHOUT_USB).
devd integration is not included in this change, and is under
investigation for the base system. In the interim the security/u2f-devd
port can be installed to provide appropriate devd rules.

Some notable changes, from upstream's release notes:
- sshd(8): Remove support for obsolete "host/port" syntax.
- ssh(1): When prompting whether to record a new host key, accept the key
fingerprint as a synonym for "yes".
- ssh-keygen(1): when acting as a CA and signing certificates with an RSA
key, default to using the rsa-sha2-512 signature algorithm.
- ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-keygen(1): this release removes the "ssh-rsa"
(RSA/SHA1) algorithm from those accepted for certificate signatures.
- ssh-sk-helper(8): this is a new binary. It is used by the FIDO/U2F
support to provide address-space isolation for token middleware
libraries (including the internal one).
- ssh(1): this release enables UpdateHostkeys by default subject to some
conservative preconditions.
- scp(1): this release changes the behaviour of remote to remote copies
(e.g. "scp host-a:/path host-b:") to transfer through the local host
by default.
- scp(1): experimental support for transfers using the SFTP protocol as
a replacement for the venerable SCP/RCP protocol that it has
traditionally used.
Additional integration work is needed to support FIDO/U2F in the base
system.
Deprecation Notice
------------------
OpenSSH will disable the ssh-rsa signature scheme by default in the
next release.

This code was originally written for non-reentrant crypt(3).
In 5f521d7ba7, a thread-safe crypt_r(3) was introduced. However,
it looks like the DES implementation is still not re-entrant;
routines like setup_salt() or des_setkey() still use global
variables.
Instead of something drastic, eg removing DES support altogether,
just mark those variables as thread-local. This adds about 30kB
of data per thread.
Given that this only applies to DES, I think the impact is minimal.

This merges upstream patches from OpenSSL's master branch to add
KTLS infrastructure for TLS 1.0-1.3 including both RX and TX
offload and SSL_sendfile support on both Linux and FreeBSD.
Note that TLS 1.3 only supports TX offload.
A new WITH/WITHOUT_OPENSSL_KTLS determines if OpenSSL is built with
KTLS support. It defaults to enabled on amd64 and disabled on all
other architectures.

Literal references to /usr/local exist in a large number of files in
the FreeBSD base system. Many are in contributed software, in configuration
files, or in the documentation, but 19 uses have been identified in C
source files or headers outside the contrib and sys/contrib directories.
This commit makes it possible to set _PATH_LOCALBASE in paths.h to use
a different prefix for locally installed software.
In order to avoid changes to openssh source files, LOCALBASE is passed to
the build via Makefiles under src/secure. While _PATH_LOCALBASE could have
been used here, there is precedent in the construction of the path used to
a xauth program which depends on the LOCALBASE value passed on the compiler
command line to select a non-default directory.
This could be changed in a later commit to make the openssh build
consistently use _PATH_LOCALBASE. It is considered out-of-scope for this
commit.

The current default is provided in various Makefile.inc in some top-level
directories and covers a good portion of the tree, but doesn't cover parts
of the build a little deeper (e.g. libcasper).
Provide a default in src.sys.mk and set WARNS to it in bsd.sys.mk if that
variable is defined. This lets us relatively cleanly provide a default WARNS
no matter where you're building in the src tree without breaking things
outside of the tree.
Crunchgen has been updated as a bootstrap tool to work on this change
because it needs r365605 at a minimum to succeed. The cleanup necessary to
successfully walk over this change on WITHOUT_CLEAN builds has been added.
There is a supplemental project to this to list all of the warnings that are
encountered when the environment has WARNS=6 NO_WERROR=yes:
https://warns.kevans.dev -- this project will hopefully eventually go away
in favor of CI doing a much better job than it.
