OpenSSH 4.2 released

Posted by Hemos on from the becoming-more-secure dept.

BSDForums writes "OpenSSH 4.2 has been released. OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol version 1.3, 1.5 and 2.0 implementation and includes sftp client and server support. Changes since OpenSSH 4.1 include security bug fixes relating to GatewayPorts, and GSSAPI, which eliminates the risk of credentials being inadvertently exposed to an untrusted user/host. A new compression method, proactive changes for signed vs. unsigned integer bugs, and many additional bugfixes and improvements highlight this release."
