OpenSSH 7.1p2 was released on 2016-01-14. It is available from the
mirrors listed at https://www.openssh.com/.

OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol 2.0 implementation and
includes sftp client and server support. OpenSSH also includes
transitional support for the legacy SSH 1.3 and 1.5 protocols
that may be enabled at compile-time.

Once again, we would like to thank the OpenSSH community for their
continued support of the project, especially those who contributed
code or patches, reported bugs, tested snapshots or donated to the
project. More information on donations may be found at:

Changes since OpenSSH 7.1p1
===========================

 * SECURITY: ssh(1): The OpenSSH client code between 5.4 and 7.1
   contains experimental support for resuming SSH-connections (roaming).

   The matching server code has never been shipped, but the client
   code was enabled by default and could be tricked by a malicious
   server into leaking client memory to the server, including private
   client user keys.

   The authentication of the server host key prevents exploitation
   by a man-in-the-middle, so this information leak is restricted
   to connections to malicious or compromised servers.

   MITIGATION: For OpenSSH >= 5.4 the vulnerable code in the client
   can be completely disabled by adding 'UseRoaming no' to the gobal
   ssh_config(5) file, or to user configuration in ~/.ssh/config,
   or by passing -oUseRoaming=no on the command line.

   PATCH: See below for a patch to disable this feature (Disabling
   Roaming in the Source Code).

   This problem was reported by the Qualys Security Advisory team.

 * SECURITY: Fix an out of-bound read access in the packet handling
   code. Reported by Ben Hawkes.

 * PROTOCOL: Correctly interpret the 'first_kex_follows' option during
   the intial key exchange. Reported by Matt Johnston.

 * Further use of explicit_bzero has been added in various buffer
   handling code paths to guard against compilers aggressively
   doing dead-store removal.


Checksums:
==========

 - SHA1 (openssh-7.1p2.tar.gz) = 9202f5a2a50c8a55ecfb830609df1e1fde97f758
 - SHA256 (openssh-7.1p2.tar.gz) = dd75f024dcf21e06a0d6421d582690bf987a1f6323e32ad6619392f3bfde6bbd

Please note that the SHA256 signatures are base64 encoded and not
hexadecimal (which is the default for most checksum tools). The PGP
key used to sign the releases is available as RELEASE_KEY.asc from
the mirror sites.
