openssh unix dev - Jan 2009 - access to buggy openssh-3.x

Hi,

    I wanted to have access to the openssh-3.x source in which
    the bugs were reported.  For instance, one of the problems
    reported in openssh-3.1 was
    *Bug 182* <https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=182> - ssh 
should still force SIGCHLD to be SIG_DFL when calling ssh-rand-helper
   
    When I download openssh-3.1p1, I see the bug fixed.  I would
    like to reproduce some of the old openssh bugs (for my research),
    and therefore, need access to the source which actually had
    bugs or atleast against which the bugs were reported.

    Does anyone know how to get access to such an code?
   
thanks,
Rekha

You didn't say where you are downloading OpenSSH from.
ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/OpenSSH and
ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/OpenSSH/portable are the canonical
locations.

That particular bug is not fixed in
ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/OpenSSH/portable/openssh-3.1p1.tar.gz
(I just checked) so I'm not sure what you are looking at.

Also, the entire project history is in CVS with releases tagged and
branched, for example:

cvs -d anoncvs at anoncvs.mindrot.org:/cvs rdiff \
    -r V_3_1_P1 -r V_3_2_2_P1 openssh/entropy.c

Clearly show the fix (along with an unrelated one).
