Subject: [ptxdist] [PATCH] dropbear: stronger default MAC algorithms
Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2015 11:27:31 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1424428051-25177-1-git-send-email-bth@kamstrup.com> (raw)
Disable SHA1-96 since it gets flagged by Nessus security scanner.
Disable SHA1 since it's no longer recommended for cryotography,
and Google, Mozilla, Microsoft & NIST have all announced deprecation of it.
