I've just updated the version of OpenSSH to 3.8p1-1. This is an official new release, based on the vanilla sources.
The release message is about an hour old so I'm pretty confident, Cygwin is the first distribution having the new OpenSSH version ;-) Official Release Message: ==================================================================== OpenSSH 3.8 has just been released. It will be available from the mirrors listed at http://www.openssh.com/ shortly. OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol version 1.3, 1.5 and 2.0 implementation and includes sftp client and server support. We would like to thank the OpenSSH community for their continued support to the project, especially those who contributed source and bought T-shirts or posters. We have a new design of T-shirt available, more info on http://www.openbsd.org/tshirts.html#18 For international orders use http://https.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/order and for European orders, use http://https.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/order.eu Changes since OpenSSH 3.7.1: ============================ * sshd(8) now supports forced changes of expired passwords via /usr/bin/passwd or keyboard-interactive authentication. Note for AIX: sshd will now deny password access to accounts with passwords expired longer than their maxexpired attribute. For details, see the AIX section in README.platform. * ssh(1) now uses untrusted cookies for X11-Forwarding. Some X11 applications might need full access to the X11 server, see ForwardX11Trusted in ssh(1) and xauth(1) for more information. * ssh(1) now supports sending application layer keep-alive messages to the server. See ServerAliveInterval in ssh(1) for more information. * Improved sftp(1) batch file support. * New KerberosGetAFSToken option for sshd(8). * Updated /etc/moduli file and improved performance for protocol version 2. * Support for host keys in DNS (draft-ietf-secsh-dns-xx.txt). Please see README.dns in the source distribution for details. * Fix a number of memory leaks. * The experimental "gssapi" support has been replaced with the "gssapi-with-mic" to fix possible MITM attacks. The two versions are not compatible.
