Name : dropbear
Product : Fedora 21
Version : 2015.67
Release : 1.fc21
URL : https://matt.ucc.asn.au/dropbear/dropbear.html
Summary : A lightweight SSH server and client
Description :
Dropbear is a relatively small SSH server and client. Dropbear
is particularly useful for "embedded"-type Linux (or other Unix)
systems, such as wireless routers.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
== 2015.67 - Wednesday 28 January 2015 ==
- Call fsync() after generating private keys to ensure they aren't lost if a reboot occurs.
- Disable non-delayed zlib compression by default on the server. Can be enabled if required for old clients with DROPBEAR_SERVER_DELAY_ZLIB
- Default client key path ~/.ssh/id_dropbear.
- Prefer stronger algorithms by default. AES256 over 3DES Diffie-hellman group14 over group1.
- Add option to disable CBC ciphers.
- Disable twofish in default options.h.
- Enable sha2 HMAC algorithms by default, the code was already required for ECC key exchange. sha1 is the first preference still for performance.
- Fix installing dropbear.8 in a separate build directory.
- Allow configure to succeed if libtomcrypt/libtommath are missing.
- Don't crash if ssh-agent provides an unknown type of key.
- Minor bug fixes, a few issues found by Coverity scan.
== 2014.66 - Thursday 23 October 2014 ==
- Use the same keepalive handling behaviour as OpenSSH. This will work better with some SSH implementations that have different behaviour with unknown message types.
- Don't reply with SSH_MSG_UNIMPLEMENTED when we receive a reply to our own keepalive message.
- Set $SSH_CLIENT to keep bash happy.
- Fix wtmp which broke since 2013.62.
