Name : dropbear
Product : Fedora 18
Version : 2013.62
Release : 1.fc18
URL : http://matt.ucc.asn.au/dropbear/dropbear.html

is particularly useful for "embedded"-type Linux (or other Unix)
systems, such as wireless routers.

Update Information:
2013.62 - Tuesday 3 December 2013
- Disable "interactive" QoS connection options when a connection doesn't
have a PTY (eg scp, rsync). Thanks to Catalin Patulea for the patch.
- Log when a hostkey is generated with -R, fix some bugs in handling server
hostkey commandline options
- Fix crash in Dropbearconvert and 521 bit key, reported by NiLuJe
- Update config.guess and config.sub again
2013.61test - Thursday 14 November 2013
- ECC (elliptic curve) support. Supports ECDSA hostkeys (requires new keys to
be generated) and ECDH for setting up encryption keys (no intervention
required). This is significantly faster.
- curve25519-sha256 at libssh.org support for setting up encryption keys. This is
another elliptic curve mode with less potential of NSA interference in
algorithm parameters. curve25519-donna code thanks to Adam Langley
- -R option to automatically generate hostkeys. This is recommended for
embedded platforms since it allows the system random number device
/dev/urandom a longer startup time to generate a secure seed before the
hostkey is required.
- Compile fixes for old vendor compilers like Tru64 from Daniel Richard G.
- Make authorized_keys handling more robust, don't exit encountering
malformed lines. Thanks to Lorin Hochstein and Mark Stillwell
2013.60 - Wednesday 16 October 2013
- Fix "make install" so that it doesn't always install to /bin and /sbin
- Fix "make install MULTI=1", installing manpages failed
- Fix "make install" when scp is included since it has no manpage
- Make --disable-bundled-libtom work
