2018-11-07 12:17:03 Karl Stenerud openssh (Ubuntu Cosmic): status New In Progress
2018-11-07 12:22:29 Karl Stenerud description Just upgraded to cosmic, which picks up OpenSSH 7.7. OpenSSH 7.7 has known bug https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2855 which is fixed in OpenSSH 7.8. It's a regression that completely breaks -w tunneling. The OpenSSH bug contains a trivial two-line patch to fix the bug. I downloaded the Ubuntu openssh package source, applied the patch and rebuilt, and can confirm that is does fix the problem. Any chance we could get this patch backported to Cosmic? ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 18.10 Package: openssh-client 1:7.7p1-4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.18.0-10.11-generic 4.18.12 Uname: Linux 4.18.0-10-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.10-0ubuntu13 Architecture: amd64 Date: Thu Nov 1 09:36:16 2018 ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm-256color PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash RelatedPackageVersions: ssh-askpass N/A libpam-ssh N/A keychain N/A ssh-askpass-gnome N/A SSHClientVersion: OpenSSH_7.7p1 Ubuntu-4, OpenSSL 1.0.2n 7 Dec 2017 SourcePackage: openssh UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to cosmic on 2018-11-01 (0 days ago) [Impact] A regression in OpenSSH 7.7 breaks tunnelling via the -w switch in the ssh command. [Test Case] # lxc launch ubuntu:cosmic tester && lxc exec tester bash # apt update && \ apt dist-upgrade -y && \ sed -i 's/PasswordAuthentication no/PasswordAuthentication yes/g' /etc/ssh/sshd_config && \ service sshd restart && \ echo ubuntu:ubuntu | chpasswd # ssh -w any ubuntu@localhost ubuntu@localhost's password: Tunnel device open failed. Could not request tunnel forwarding. [Regression Potential] This is already fixed and tested upstream, and thus has little regression potential.
