This update for OpenSSH fixes the following issues :

  • Prevent user enumeration through the timing of password processing. (bsc#989363, CVE-2016-6210)

  • Allow lowering the DH groups parameter limit in server as well as when GSSAPI key exchange is used.
    (bsc#948902)

  • Sanitize input for xauth(1). (bsc#970632, CVE-2016-3115)

  • Prevent X11 SECURITY circumvention when forwarding X11 connections. (bsc#962313, CVE-2016-1908)

  • Disable DH parameters under 2048 bits by default and allow lowering the limit back to the RFC 4419 specified minimum through an option. (bsc#932483, bsc#948902)

  • Ignore PAM environment when using login. (bsc#975865, CVE-2015-8325)

  • Limit the accepted password length (prevents a possible denial of service). (bsc#992533, CVE-2016-6515)

  • Relax version requires for the openssh-askpass sub-package. (bsc#962794)

  • Avoid complaining about unset DISPLAY variable.
    (bsc#981654)

  • Initialize message id to prevent connection breakups in some cases. (bsc#959096)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
