Hi, I'm doing some perf profiling, and I can see that BF_encrypt & BF_decrypt of libcrypto.so.1.0.0 (used in tincd) are consuming CPU time. I'm using Tinc 1.0.23 and Cipher = aes-128-cbc BF_encrypt & BF_decrypt seems related to Blowfish (https://www.openssl.org/docs/crypto/blowfish.html). Is it normal that BF functions are used even if AES is used...

Hi guys, and here's a security related bug report. I think it's has been fixed in the 2.2.x-release of openssh, but I'm not sure. I tried to reproduce the problem with my 2.2.0p1 and could find any difference in the behaviour of ssh depending on wether PermitRootLogin was set to no. Could someone please confirm that this problem is not existing anymore? > When PermitRootLogin is
