similar to: curve25519

Dear OpenSSH developers, I've worked this week on an alternative key exchange mechanism, in reaction to the whole NSA leaks and claims over cryptographic backdoors and/or cracking advances. The key exchange is in my opinion the most critical defense against passive eavesdropping attacks. I believe Curve25519 from DJB can give users a secure alternative to classical Diffie-Hellman (with fixed

It should be compatible with the original patch. However I think that the shared secret should be encoded as a string, too.

Here are three versions (patch against openbsd cvs) 1) repace nacl w/libsodium, so i could test 2) curve25519-donna 3) Matthew's public domain reference implementation. i'd vote for #3 -------------- next part -------------- Am 30.10.2013 um 07:27 schrieb Damien Miller <djm at mindrot.org>: > On Tue, 24 Sep 2013, Aris Adamantiadis wrote: > >> Dear OpenSSH

Hi, mancha and me debugged a problem with OpenSSH 7.3p1 that was reported on the #openssh freenode channel. Symptoms were that this message was popping on the console during a busy X11 session: kex protocol error: type 7 seq 1234 I managed to reproduce the problem, it is related to the SSH_EXT_INFO packet that is send by the server every time it is sending an SSH_NEWKEYS packet, hence after

Hello. I am running OpenSSH 7.9p1 on my client and server. ssh-keyscan shows the server has ssh-rsa, ssh-ed25519, and ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 host keys. My /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts file contains the server's ssh-ed25519 host key. When I try to SSH to the server I get this error: @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @ WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!

if I understand http://git.libssh.org/projects/libssh.git/commit/?id=4cb6afcbd43ab503d4c3d3054b96a1492605ea8d correctly, then the shared secret is encoded as a bignum, probably because the rest of the code assumes it's a bignum (e.g. for key derivation, etc). however, the DH public keys are always encoded as strings (both in my patches and in the libssh.org code).

I added an EXPLICIT AuthenticationMethods publickey,keyboard-interactive + UsePam yes to sshd_config. Now, at connect attempt I get Password: Verification code: Password: Verification code: Password: ... I.e., It's asking for Password, not accepting pubkey AND when given the password (which is correct), and the GA VerificationCode, it simply repeats the credentials request.
