*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***

Own Id: OTP-12872

Modernization of key exchange algorithms. See draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2 for a discussion.

Removed an outdated weak algorithm and added stronger replacements to keep interoperability with other modern ssh clients and servers. The default ordering of the algorithms is also adjusted.

Retired: The nowadays unsecure key-exchange diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 is not enabled by default, but can be enabled with the option preferred-algorithms.

Added: The new stronger key-exchange diffie-hellman-group16-sha512, diffie-hellman-group18-sha512 and diffie-hellman-group14-sha256 are added and enabled by default.

The questionable [RFC 6194] sha1-based algorithms diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1 and diffie-hellman-group14-sha1 are however still kept enabled by default for compatibility with ancient clients and servers that lack modern key-exchange alternatives. When the draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2 becomes an rfc, those sha1-based algorithms and diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 will be deprecated by IETF. They might then be removed from the default list in Erlang/OTP.

The SSH application is refactored regarding daemon starting. The resolution of contradicting Host argument and ip option were not described. There were also strange corner cases when the 'any' value was used in Host argument or ip option. This is (hopefully) resolved now, but it may cause incompatibilities for code using both Host and the ip option. The value 'loopback' has been added for a correct way of naming those addresses.

The ssh_connection_handler module in SSH is changed and now uses the new behaviour gen_statem.

The module can be used as an example of a gen_statem callback module but with a warning: This commit of ssh is just a straightforward port from gen_fsm to gen_statem with some code cleaning. Since the state machine and the state callbacks are almost unchanged the ssh module does not demonstrate the full potential of the new behaviour.

The "new" state machine uses compound states. The ssh server and client state machines are quite similar but differences exist. With gen_fsm there were flags in the user data which in fact implemented "substates". Now with gen_statem those are made explicit in the state names, eg. the state userauth and the binary role-flag becomes the two state names {userauth, server} and {userauth, client}.

The ssh:daemon option dh_gex_groups is extended to read a user provided ssh moduli file with generator-modulus pairs. The file is in openssh format.

Own Id: OTP-13052 Aux Id: OTP-13054

There is now a file (public_key/priv/moduli) which lists size-generator-modulus triples. The purpose is to give servers the possibility to select the crypto primes randomly among a list of pregenerated triples. This reduces the risk for some attacks on diffie-hellman negotiation.

See the reference manual for public_key:dh_gex_group/4 where the handling of this is described.

The ssh server (ssh:daemon) uses this.

The ssh:daemon option pwdfun now also takes a fun/4. This enables the user to 1) check userid-password in another way than the builtin algorithm, 2) implement rate limiting per user or source IP or IP+Port, and 3) implement blocking of missbehaving peers.

Integrate elliptic curve contribution from Andreas Schultz

In order to be able to support elliptic curve cipher suites in SSL/TLS, additions to handle elliptic curve infrastructure has been added to public_key and crypto.

This also has resulted in a rewrite of the crypto API to gain consistency and remove unnecessary overhead. All OTP applications using crypto has been updated to use the new API.

Impact: Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) offers equivalent security with smaller key sizes than other public key algorithms. Smaller key sizes result in savings for power, memory, bandwidth, and computational cost that make ECC especially attractive for constrained environments.

New API module ssh_channel has been added. This is a behaviour to facilitate the implementation of ssh clients and plug in subsystems to the ssh daemon. Note that this slightly changes the options to the API function ssh:daemon/[1,2,3] deprecating all no longer documented options.
