Subject: [ptxdist] OpenSSH patches
Date: Tue, 7 Jul 2015 10:52:52 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150707085252.GA26480@pqgruber.com> (raw)

Hi Michael,

what do you think about my recent OpenSSH patches (not the version bumps) but
enabling the sandbox per default (to use seccomp if available) and the switch
from DSA to Ed25519. ArchLinux and current Debian both generate Ed25519 pubkeys
by default and add them as HostKey to sshd_config.
They keep DSA and ECDSA but as they fall apart completely if the random numbers
used are not good, I am not sure this is a good idea for embedded systems where
entropy is often very scarce. Ed25519 is not that sensitive to entropy problems.

Regards,
Clemens
