-Hi all.
-
-I've put up a new release 0.47 of Dropbear, which has
-various fixes and new features - see the change summary
-below.
-http://matt.ucc.asn.au/dropbear/dropbear.html is the
-url as usual or directly at
-http://matt.ucc.asn.au/dropbear/dropbear-0.47.tar.bz2
-
-This release also fixes a potential security issue, which
-may allow authenticated users to run arbitrary code as the
-server user. I'm unsure exactly how likely it is to be
-exploitable, but anyone who's running a multi-user server is
-advised to upgrade. For older releases, the patch is:
-(against chanesssion.c for 0.43 and earlier).

-0.47 - Thurs Dec 8 2005
-
-- SECURITY: fix for buffer allocation error in server code, could potentially
- allow authenticated users to gain elevated privileges. All multi-user systems
- running the server should upgrade (or apply the patch available on the
- Dropbear webpage).
-
-- Fix channel handling code so that redirecting to /dev/null doesn't use
- 100% CPU.
-
-- Turn on zlib compression for dbclient.
-
-- Set "low delay" TOS bit, can significantly improve interactivity
- over some links.
-
-- Added client keyboard-interactive mode support, allows operation with
- newer OpenSSH servers in default config.
-
-- Log when pubkey auth fails because of bad ~/.ssh/authorized_keys permissions
-
-- Improve logging of assertions
-
-- Added aes-256 cipher and sha1-96 hmac.
-
-- Fix twofish so that it actually works.
-
-- Improve PAM prompt comparison.
-
-- Added -g (dbclient) and -a (dropbear server) options to allow
- connections to listening forwarded ports from remote machines.
-
-- Various other minor fixes
-
-- Compile fixes for glibc 2.1 (ss_family vs __ss_family) and NetBSD
- (netinet/in_systm.h needs to be included).
