Log message:
dropbear: updated to 2026.91

2026.91 - 10 May 2026

- scp: Fix test for disallowing -r with existing target directory. The logic
  introduced in 2026.90 was incorrect, could also disallow non-recursive
  transfers.

- scp: Fix regression in 2026.90 building on older glibc or other libc.
  reallocarray() was required, it is no longer needed.

- Compression is now disabled by default for dbclient. A new -o compression option
  can enable it. DROPBEAR_CLI_COMPRESSION in localoptions.h can change the default.
  Enabling compression can be a security weakness in some
  circumstances, as the size of network traffic may leak information
  about the encrypted data.

- Added '-Q' argument for dbclient and dropbear to query supported algorithms,
  kex sig cipher mac compress

dropbear: updated to 2025.89

2025.89 - 16 December 2025

- Security: Avoid privilege escalation via unix stream forwarding in Dropbear
  server. Other programs on a system may authenticate unix sockets via
  SO_PEERCRED, which would be root user for Dropbear forwarded connections,
  allowing root privilege escalation.
  Reported by Turistu, and thanks for advice on the fix.
  This is tracked as CVE-2025-14282, and affects 2024.84 to 2025.88.

  It is fixed by dropping privileges of the dropbear process after
  authentication. Unix stream sockets are now disallowed when a
  forced command is used, either with authorized_key restrictions or
  "dropbear -c command".

  In previous affected releases running with "dropbear -j" (will also \ 
disable
  TCP fowarding) or building with localoptions.h/distrooptions.h
  "#define DROPBEAR_SVR_LOCALSTREAMFWD 0" is a mitigation.

- Security: Include scp fix for CVE-2019-6111. This allowed
  a malicious server to overwrite arbitrary local files.
  The missing fix was reported by Ashish Kunwar.

- Server dropping privileges post-auth is enabled by default. This requires
  setresgid() support, so some platforms such as netbsd or macos will have to
  disable DROPBEAR_SVR_DROP_PRIVS in localoptions.h. Unix stream forwarding is
  not available if DROPBEAR_SVR_DROP_PRIVS is disabled.

  Remote server TCP socket forwarding will now use OS privileged port
  restrictions rather than having a fixed "allow >=1024 for \ 
non-root" rule.

  A future release may implement privilege dropping for netbsd/macos.

- Fix a regression in 2025.87 when RSA and DSS are not built. This would lead
  to a crash at startup with bad_bufptr().
  Reported by Dani Schmitt and Sebastian Priebe.

- Don't limit channel window to 500MB. That is could cause stuck connections
  if peers advise a large window and don't send an increment within 500MB.
  Affects SSH.NET https://github.com/sshnet/SSH.NET/issues/1671
  Reported by Rob Hague.

- Ignore -g -s when passwords arent enabled. Patch from Norbert Lange.
  Ignore -m (disable MOTD), -j/-k (tcp forwarding) when not enabled.

- Report SIGBUS and SIGTRAP signals. Patch from Loïc Mangeonjean.

- Fix incorrect server auth delay. Was meant to be 250-350ms, it was actually
  150-350ms or possibly negative (zero). Reported by pickaxprograms.

- Fix building without public key options. Thanks to Konstantin Demin

- Fix building with proxycmd but without netcat. Thanks to Konstantin Demin

- Fix incorrect path documentation for distrooptions, thanks to Todd Zullinger

- Fix SO_REUSEADDR for TCP tests, reported by vt-alt.

2025.88

- Security: Don't allow dbclient hostname arguments to be interpreted
  by the shell.

  dbclient hostname arguments with a comma (for multihop) would be
  passed to the shell which could result in running arbitrary shell
  commands locally. That could be a security issue in situations
  where dbclient is passed untrusted hostname arguments.

  Now the multihop command is executed directly, no shell is involved.
  Thanks to Marcin Nowak for the report, tracked as CVE-2025-47203

- Fix compatibility for htole64 and htole32, regression in 2025.87
  Patch from Peter Fichtner to work with old GCC versions, and
  patch from Matt Robinson to check different header files.

- Fix building on older compilers or libc that don't support
  static_assert(). Regression in 2025.87

- Support ~R in the client to force a key re-exchange.

- Improve strict KEX handling. Dropbear previously would allow other
  packets at the end of key exchange prior to receiving the remote
  peer's NEWKEYS message, which should be forbidden by strict KEX.
  Reported by Fabian Bäumer.

Log message:
dropbear: Various packaging improvements.

- Add rc script.
- Fix support for PKG_SYSCONFDIR.
- Move PKG_OPITONS into options.mk.

Log message:
dropbear: updated to 2025.87

2025.87 - 5 March 2025

Note >> for compatibility/configuration changes

- >> Disable SHA-1 algorithms by default. SHA-1 has known weakness and
  most implementations support alternatives.

- Add post-quantum key exchange. These avoid the possibility of current
  stored traffic being decrypted using a possible future quantum
  computer.

  sntrup761 added by Matt Johnston, using sntrup761 implementation from
  Daniel J. Bernstein, Chitchanok Chuengsatiansup, Tanja Lange and
  Christine van Vredendaal, with integration work from OpenSSH.

  ML-KEM added by Loganaden Velvindron, Jaykishan Mutkawoa, Kavish Nadan,
  using libcrux, also based on OpenSSH work.

  These do increase code size, at least sntrup761 is recommended,
  see default_options.h

- >> Decompression is disabled on the server, compression
  is still supported.
  This avoids attack surface for zlib and saves runtime memory.

- Add -D server flag to specify authorized_keys directory, from Darren Tucker.

- Include remote host in "Login attempt with wrong user" message for \ 
fail2ban,
  patch from MichaIng.

- Workaround writing hostkeys on FUSE filesystem that don't
  support hardlinks, reported by elijahr.

- Fix truncated error messages such as host key mismatch.

- >> Preference aes256 ahead of aes128 for the client. chacha20-poly1305
  is still first preference.

- Fix ubsan failure in curve25519 code, reported by Steven Bytnar.
  Has no effect on execution.

Log message:
dropbear: updated to 2024.86

2024.86 - 22 October 2024

- Fix failure on concurrent channel open/close.

- Print remote host after "Login attempt for nonexistent user" log entry to
  assist fail2ban. Fix from MichaIng, the format changed in 2020.79

- Dropbear now exits with exit status 0 on SIGINT/SIGTERM. This is a more
  graceful behaviour for "systemctl stop dropbear".
  Reported by Ninad Palsule

- New IDENT_VERSION_PART config allows customising some of the SSH version
  string. From Marius Dinu

- Fix building SK_KEYS with just one of ECDSA or ED25519
  From Marius Dinu

- Fix dbclient "-m help" and "-c help" without a hostname.
  Patch from Darren Tucker

- Remove fprintf/gettimeofday from sigchld handler when running with
  verbose trace enabled.

- Improved configure help output, from Mikel Olasagasti Uranga

- Compile fix for GNU Hurd, from Guilhem Moulin

- Support running test_aslr without venv, from Guilhem Moulin

- Compilation fixes for older compilers, and better build tests

- Update some test infrastructure versions of python packages,
  github actions, and github runner OSes
