2014-05-02 08:39:37 Colin Watson description There's an occasional (one in 512 or so) key exchange failure in the curve25519-sha256 key exchange method, which affects OpenSSH 6.5 and 6.6. Upstream gives more details here and has recommended that distributors apply this patch: https://lists.mindrot.org/pipermail/openssh-unix-dev/2014-April/032494.html We should issue this as an update for trusty. [Impact] Occasional key exchange failure with ED25519. [Test Case] I don't have a clear one, but perhaps attempting lots of connections to a fixed server would do it. [Regression Potential] We should test with an unpatched server to make sure that it properly falls back to skipping that key exchange method.
