Ubuntu 7.04:
openssh-client 1:4.3p2-8ubuntu1.3
openssh-server 1:4.3p2-8ubuntu1.3
Ubuntu 7.10:
openssh-client 1:4.6p1-5ubuntu0.3
openssh-server 1:4.6p1-5ubuntu0.3
Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
openssh-client 1:4.7p1-8ubuntu1.1
openssh-server 1:4.7p1-8ubuntu1.1
Once the update is applied, weak user keys will be automatically
rejected where possible (though they cannot be detected in all
cases). If you are using such keys for user authentication,
they will immediately stop working and will need to be replaced
(see step 3).
OpenSSH host keys can be automatically regenerated when the
OpenSSH security update is applied. The update will prompt for
confirmation before taking this step.
2. Update OpenSSH known_hosts files
The regeneration of host keys will cause a warning to be displayed
when connecting to the system using SSH until the host key is
updated in the known_hosts file. The warning will look like this:
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@ WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY!
Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle
attack)! It is also possible that the RSA host key has just been
changed.
In this case, the host key has simply been changed, and you
should update the relevant known_hosts file as indicated in the
error message.
3. Check all OpenSSH user keys
The safest course of action is to regenerate all OpenSSH user
keys, except where it can be established to a high degree of
certainty that the key was generated on an unaffected system.
Check whether your key is affected by running the ssh-vulnkey
tool, included in the security update. By default, ssh-vulnkey
will check the standard location for user keys (~/.ssh/id_rsa,
~/.ssh/id_dsa and ~/.ssh/identity), your authorized_keys file
(~/.ssh/authorized_keys and ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2), and the
system's host keys (/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key and
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key).
To check all your own keys, assuming they are in the standard
locations (~/.ssh/id_rsa, ~/.ssh/id_dsa, or ~/.ssh/identity):
$ ssh-vulnkey
To check all keys on your system:
$ sudo ssh-vulnkey -a
To check a key in a non-standard location:
$ ssh-vulnkey /path/to/key
