Fabrice, All,

On 2021-03-22 20:00 +0100, Fabrice Fontaine spake thusly:
>  * ssh-agent(1): fixed a double-free memory corruption that was
>    introduced in OpenSSH 8.2 . We treat all such memory faults as
>    potentially exploitable. This bug could be reached by an attacker
>    with access to the agent socket.
> 
>    On modern operating systems where the OS can provide information
>    about the user identity connected to a socket, OpenSSH ssh-agent
>    and sshd limit agent socket access only to the originating user
>    and root. Additional mitigation may be afforded by the system's
>    malloc(3)/free(3) implementation, if it detects double-free
>    conditions.
> 
>    The most likely scenario for exploitation is a user forwarding an
>    agent either to an account shared with a malicious user or to a
>    host with an attacker holding root access.
> 
>  * Portable sshd(8): Prevent excessively long username going to PAM.
>    This is a mitigation for a buffer overflow in Solaris' PAM username
>    handling (CVE-2020-14871), and is only enabled for Sun-derived PAM
>    implementations.  This is not a problem in sshd itself, it only
>    prevents sshd from being used as a vector to attack Solaris' PAM.
>    It does not prevent the bug in PAM from being exploited via some
>    other PAM application. GHPR#212
> 
> Also license has been updated to add some openbsd-compat licenses:
> https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/commit/922cfac5ed5ead9f796f7d39f012dd653dc5c173
