Name        : python-paramiko
Product     : Fedora 36
Version     : 2.10.3
Release     : 1.fc36
URL         : https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko
Summary     : SSH2 protocol library for python
Description :

Paramiko (a combination of the Esperanto words for "paranoid" and
"friend") is
a module for python 2.3 or greater that implements the SSH2 protocol for secure
(encrypted and authenticated) connections to remote machines. Unlike SSL (aka
TLS), the SSH2 protocol does not require hierarchical certificates signed by a
powerful central authority. You may know SSH2 as the protocol that replaced
telnet and rsh for secure access to remote shells, but the protocol also
includes the ability to open arbitrary channels to remote services across an
encrypted tunnel (this is how sftp works, for example).

Update Information:

CVE-2022-24302: Creation of new private key files using `~paramiko.pkey.PKey`
subclasses was subject to a race condition between file creation and mode
modification, which could be exploited by an attacker with knowledge of where
the Paramiko-using code would write out such files; this has been patched by
using `os.open` and `os.fdopen` to ensure new files are opened with the correct
mode immediately (we've left the subsequent explicit 'chmod' in place to
minimize any possible  disruption, though it may get removed in future
backwards-incompatible updates).

ChangeLog:

* Sat Mar 19 2022 Paul Howarth <paul(a)city-fan.org&gt; - 2.10.3-1
- Update to 2.10.3
  - Certificate-based pubkey auth was inadvertently broken when adding SHA2
    support in version 2.9.0 (GH#1963, GH#1977)
  - Switch from module-global to thread-local storage when recording thread IDs
    for a logging helper; this should avoid one flavor of memory leak for
    long-running processes (GH#2002, GH#2003)
* Tue Mar 15 2022 Paul Howarth <paul(a)city-fan.org&gt; - 2.10.2-1
- Update to 2.10.2
  - Fix Python 2 compatibility breakage introduced in 2.10.1 (GH#2001)
- Re-enable sftp tests, no longer failing under mock
* Sun Mar 13 2022 Paul Howarth <paul(a)city-fan.org&gt; - 2.10.1-1
- Update to 2.10.1
  - CVE-2022-24302: Creation of new private key files using
    '~paramiko.pkey.PKey' subclasses was subject to a race condition between
    file creation and mode modification, which could be exploited by an
    attacker with knowledge of where the Paramiko-using code would write out
    such files; this has been patched by using 'os.open' and 'os.fdopen'
to
    ensure new files are opened with the correct mode immediately (we've left
    the subsequent explicit 'chmod' in place to minimize any possible
    disruption, though it may get removed in future backwards-incompatible
    updates)
  - Add support for the '%C' token when parsing SSH config files (GH#1976)
  - Add support for OpenSSH's Windows agent as a fallback when Putty/WinPageant
    isn't available or functional (GH#1509, GH#1837, GH#1868)
  - Significantly speed up low-level read/write actions on
    '~paramiko.sftp_file.SFTPFile' objects by using
'bytearray'/'memoryview'
    (GH#892); this is unlikely to change anything for users of the higher level
    methods like 'SFTPClient.get' or 'SFTPClient.getfo', but users of
    'SFTPClient.open' will likely see orders of magnitude improvements for
    files larger than a few megabytes in size
  - Add 'six' explicitly to install-requires; it snuck into active use at some
    point but has only been indicated by transitive dependency on 'bcrypt'
    until they somewhat-recently dropped it (GH#1985); this will be short-lived
    until we drop Python 2 support
