The ec_name_to_curve and ec_curve_to_name functions shouldn't really
have had to exist at all: whenever any part of the PuTTY codebase
starts using sshecc.c, it's starting from an ssh_signkey or ssh_kex
pointer already found by some other means. So if we make sure not to
lose that pointer, we should never need to do any string-based lookups
to find the curve we want, and conversely, when we need to know the
name of our curve or our algorithm, we should be able to look it up as
a straightforward const char * starting from the algorithm pointer.
This commit cleans things up so that that is indeed what happens. The
ssh_signkey and ssh_kex structures defined in sshecc.c now have
'extra' fields containing pointers to all the necessary stuff;
ec_name_to_curve and ec_curve_to_name have been completely removed;
struct ec_curve has a string field giving the curve's name (but only
for those curves which _have_ a name exposed in the wire protocol,
i.e. the three NIST ones); struct ec_key keeps a pointer to the
ssh_signkey it started from, and uses that to remember the algorithm
name rather than reconstructing it from the curve. And I think I've
got rid of all the ad-hockery scattered around the code that switches
on curve->fieldBits or manually constructs curve names using stuff
like sprintf("nistp%d"); the only remaining switch on fieldBits
(necessary because that's the UI for choosing a curve in PuTTYgen) is
at least centralised into one place in sshecc.c.
One user-visible result is that the format of ed25519 host keys in the
registry has changed: there's now no curve name prefix on them,
because I think it's not really right to make up a name to use. So any
early adopters who've been using snapshot PuTTY in the last week will
be inconvenienced; sorry about that.
This gives families of public key and kex functions (by which I mean
those sharing a set of methods) a place to store parameters that allow
the methods to vary depending on which exact algorithm is in use.
The ssh_kex structure already had a set of parameters specific to
Diffie-Hellman key exchange; I've moved those into sshdh.c and made
them part of the 'extra' structure for that family only, so that
unrelated kex methods don't have to faff about saying NULL,NULL,0,0.
(This required me to write an extra accessor function for ssh.c to ask
whether a DH method was group-exchange style or fixed-group style, but
that doesn't seem too silly.)
Not all of them, but the ones that don't get a 'void *key' parameter.
This means I can share methods between multiple ssh_signkey
structures, and still give those methods an easy way to find out which
public key method they're dealing with, by loading parameters from a
larger structure in which the ssh_signkey is the first element.
(In OO terms, I'm arranging that all static methods of my public key
classes get a pointer to the class vtable, to make up for not having a
pointer to the class instance.)
I haven't actually done anything with the new facility in this commit,
but it will shortly allow me to clean up the constant lookups by curve
name in the ECDSA code.
All the name strings in ssh_cipher, ssh_mac, ssh_hash, ssh_signkey
point to compile-time string literals, hence should obviously be const
char *.
Most of these const-correctness patches are just a mechanical job of
adding a 'const' in the one place you need it right now, and then
chasing the implications through the code adding further consts until
it compiles. But this one has actually shown up a bug: the 'algorithm'
output parameter in ssh2_userkey_loadpub was sometimes returning a
pointer to a string literal, and sometimes a pointer to dynamically
allocated memory, so callers were forced to either sometimes leak
memory or sometimes free a bad thing. Now it's consistently
dynamically allocated, and should be freed everywhere too.
There were ad-hoc functions for fingerprinting a bare key blob in both
cmdgen.c and pageant.c, not quite doing the same thing. Also, every
SSH-2 public key algorithm in the code base included a dedicated
fingerprint() method, which is completely pointless since SSH-2 key
fingerprints are computed in an algorithm-independent way (just hash
the standard-format public key blob), so each of those methods was
just duplicating the work of the public_blob() method with a less
general output mechanism.
Now sshpubk.c centrally provides an ssh2_fingerprint_blob() function
that does all the real work, plus an ssh2_fingerprint() function that
wraps it and deals with calling public_blob() to get something to
fingerprint. And the fingerprint() method has been completely removed
from ssh_signkey and all its implementations, and good riddance.
Obviously PuTTY can't actually do public-key authentication itself, if
you give it a public rather than private key file. But it can still
match the supplied public key file against the list of keys in the
agent, and narrow down to that. So if for some reason you're
forwarding an agent to a machine you don't want to trust with your
_private_ key file (even encrypted), you can still use the '-i' option
to select which key from the agent to use, by uploading just the
public key file to that machine.
It's just ssh_pkt_addstring_data but using strlen to get the length of
string to add, so make that explicit by having it call
ssh_pkt_addstring_data. Good compilers should be unaffected by this
change.
This is the kex protocol id "curve25519-sha256@libssh.org", so called
because it's over the prime field of order 2^255 - 19.
Arithmetic in this curve is done using the Montgomery representation,
rather than the Weierstrass representation. So 'struct ec_curve' has
grown a discriminant field and a union of subtypes.
Several of the functions in ssh2_signkey, and one or two SSH-1 key
functions too, were still taking assorted non-const buffer parameters
that had never been properly constified. Sort them all out.
This causes the initial length field of the SSH-2 binary packet to be
unencrypted (with the knock-on effect that now the packet length not
including MAC must be congruent to 4 rather than 0 mod the cipher
block size), and then the MAC is applied over the unencrypted length
field and encrypted ciphertext (prefixed by the sequence number as
usual). At the cost of exposing some information about the packet
lengths to an attacker (but rarely anything they couldn't have
inferred from the TCP headers anyway), this closes down any
possibility of a MITM using the client as a decryption oracle, unless
they can _first_ fake a correct MAC.
ETM mode is enabled by means of selecting a different MAC identifier,
all the current ones of which are constructed by appending
"-etm@openssh.com" to the name of a MAC that already existed.
We currently prefer the original SSH-2 binary packet protocol (i.e. we
list all the ETM-mode MACs last in our KEXINIT), on the grounds that
it's better tested and more analysed, so at the moment the new mode is
only activated if a server refuses to speak anything else.
PuTTY now uses the updated version of Diffie-Hellman group exchange,
except for a few old OpenSSH versions which Darren Tucker reports only
support the old version.
FIXME: this needs further work because the Bugs config panel has now
overflowed.
Florent Daigniere of Matta points out that RFC 4253 actually
_requires_ us to refuse to accept out-of-range values, though it isn't
completely clear to me why this should be a MUST on the receiving end.
Matta considers this to be a security vulnerability, on the grounds
that if a server should accidentally send an obviously useless value
such as 1 then we will fail to reject it and agree a key that an
eavesdropper could also figure out. Their id for this vulnerability is
MATTA-2015-002.
I'm not actually sure why we've always had back ends notify ldisc of
changes to echo/edit settings by giving ldisc_send(ldisc,NULL,0,0) a
special meaning, instead of by having a separate dedicated notify
function with its own prototype and parameter set. Coverity's recent
observation that the two kinds of call don't even have the same
requirements on the ldisc (particularly, whether ldisc->term can be
NULL) makes me realise that it's really high time I separated the two
conceptually different operations into actually different functions.
While I'm here, I've renamed the confusing ldisc_update() function
which that special operation ends up feeding to, because it's not
actually a function applying to an ldisc - it applies to a front end.
So ldisc_send(ldisc,NULL,0,0) is now ldisc_echoedit_update(ldisc), and
that in turn figures out the current echo/edit settings before passing
them on to frontend_echoedit_update(). I think that should be clearer.
This ought to happen in ssh_do_close alongside the code that shuts
down other local listening things like port forwardings, for the same
obvious reason. In particular, we should get through this _before_ we
put up a modal dialog box telling the user what just went wrong with
the SSH connection, so that further sessions started while that box is
active don't try futilely to connect to the not-really-listening
zombie upstream.
This provides support for ECDSA public keys, for both hosts and users,
and also ECDH key exchange. Supported curves are currently just the
three NIST curves required by RFC 5656.
I had initially assumed that, since all of a user's per-connection
subdirectories live inside a top-level putty-connshare.$USER directory
that's not accessible to anyone else, there would be no need to
obfuscate the names of the internal directories for privacy, because
nobody would be able to look at them anyway.
Unfortunately, that's not true: 'netstat -ax' run by any user will
show up the full pathnames of Unix-domain sockets, including pathname
components that you wouldn't have had the access to go and look at
directly. So the Unix connection sharing socket names do need to be
obfuscated after all.
Since Unix doesn't have Windows's CryptProtectMemory, we have to do
this manually, by creating a file of random salt data inside the
top-level putty-connshare directory (if there isn't one there already)
and then hashing that salt with the "user@host" connection identifier
to get the socket directory name. What a pain.

This option is available from the command line as '-hostkey', and is
also configurable through the GUI. When enabled, it completely
replaces all of the automated host key management: the server's host
key will be checked against the manually configured list, and the
connection will be allowed or disconnected on that basis, and the host
key store in the registry will not be either consulted or updated.
The main aim is to provide a means of automatically running Plink,
PSCP or PSFTP deep inside Windows services where HKEY_CURRENT_USER
isn't available to have stored the right host key in. But it also
permits you to specify a list of multiple host keys, which means a
second use case for the same mechanism will probably be round-robin
DNS names that select one of several servers with different host keys.
Host keys can be specified as the standard MD5 fingerprint or as an
SSH-2 base64 blob, and are canonicalised on input. (The base64 blob is
more unwieldy, especially with Windows command-line length limits, but
provides a means of specifying the _whole_ public key in case you
don't trust MD5. I haven't bothered to provide an analogous mechanism
for SSH-1, on the basis that anyone worrying about MD5 should have
stopped using SSH-1 already!)
[originally from svn r10220]
This is the same code I previously fixed for failing to check NULL
pointers coming back from ssh_pkt_getstring if the server's KEXINIT
ended early, leading to an embarrassing segfault in place of a fatal
error message. But I've now also had it pointed out to me that the
fatal error message passes the string as %s, which is inappropriate
because (being read straight out of the middle of an SSH packet) it
isn't necessarily zero-terminated!
This is still just an embarrassing segfault in place of a fatal error
message, and not exploitable as far as I can see, because the string
is passed to a dupprintf, which will either read off the end of
allocated address space and segfault non-exploitably, or else it will
find a NUL after all and carefully allocate enough space to format an
error message containing all of the previous junk. But still, how
embarrassing to have messed up the same code _twice_.
[originally from svn r10211]
We now expect that after the server has sent us CHANNEL_CLOSE, we
should not expect to see any replies to our outstanding channel
requests, and conversely after we have sent CHANNEL_CLOSE we avoid
sending any reply to channel requests from the server. This was the
consensus among implementors discussing the problem on ietf-ssh in
April 2014.
To cope with current OpenSSH's (and perhaps other servers we don't
know about yet) willingness to send request replies after
CHANNEL_CLOSE, I introduce a bug-compatibility flag which is detected
for every OpenSSH version up to and including the current 6.6 - but
not beyond, since https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1818
promises that 6.7 will also implement the new consensus behaviour.

Martin Prikryl reports that it had the exact same bug as old OpenSSH
(insisting that RSA signature integers be padded with leading zero
bytes to the same length as the RSA modulus, where in fact RFC 4253
section 6.6 says it ought to have _no_ padding), but is recently
fixed. The first version string to not have the bug is reported to be
"mod_sftp/0.9.9", so here we recognise everything less than that as
requiring our existing workaround.

If we search for a colon by computing ptr + host_strcspn(ptr,":"),
then the resulting pointer is always non-NULL, and the 'not found'
condition is not !p but !*p.
This typo could have caused PuTTY to overrun a string, but not in a
security-bug sense because any such string would have to have been
loaded from the configuration rather than received from a hostile
source.
[originally from svn r10123]
Both GUI PuTTY front ends have a piece of logic whereby a string is
interpreted as host:port if there's _one_ colon in it, but if there's
more than one colon then it's assumed to be an IPv6 literal with no
trailing port number. This permits the PuTTY command line to take
strings such as 'host', 'host:22' or '[::1]:22', but also cope with a
bare v6 literal such as '::1'.
This logic is also required in the two Plink front ends and in the
processing of CONF_loghost for host key indexing in ssh.c, but was
missing in all those places. Add it.
[originally from svn r10121]
I've gone through everywhere we handle host names / addresses (on
command lines, in PuTTY config, in port forwarding, in X display
names, in host key storage...) and tried to make them handle IPv6
literals sensibly, by using the host_str* functions I introduced in my
previous commit. Generally it's now OK to use a bracketed IPv6 literal
anywhere a hostname might have been valid; in a few cases where no
ambiguity exists (e.g. no :port suffix is permitted anyway)
unbracketed IPv6 literals are also acceptable.

I've enabled gcc's format-string checking on dupprintf, by declaring

[originally from svn r10084]
The basic strategy is described at the top of the new source file
sshshare.c. In very brief: an 'upstream' PuTTY opens a Unix-domain
socket or Windows named pipe, and listens for connections from other
PuTTYs wanting to run sessions on the same server. The protocol spoken
down that socket/pipe is essentially the bare ssh-connection protocol,
using a trivial binary packet protocol with no encryption, and the
upstream has to do some fiddly transformations that I've been
referring to as 'channel-number NAT' to avoid resource clashes between
the sessions it's managing.
This is quite different from OpenSSH's approach of using the Unix-
domain socket as a means of passing file descriptors around; the main
reason for that is that fd-passing is Unix-specific but this system
has to work on Windows too. However, there are additional advantages,
such as making it easy for each downstream PuTTY to run its own
independent set of port and X11 forwardings (though the method for
making the latter work is quite painful).
Sharing is off by default, but configuration is intended to be very
easy in the normal case - just tick one box in the SSH config panel
and everything else happens automatically.
[originally from svn r10083]
Now that it doesn't actually make a network connection because that's
deferred until after the X authorisation exchange, there's no point in
having it return an error message and write the real output through a
pointer argument. Instead, we can just have it return xconn directly
and simplify the call sites.
[originally from svn r10081]
Rather than the top-level component of X forwarding being an
X11Display structure which owns some auth data, it's now a collection
of X11FakeAuth structures, each of which owns a display. The idea is
that when we receive an X connection, we wait to see which of our
available auth cookies it matches, and then connect to whatever X
display that auth cookie identifies. At present the tree will only
have one thing in it; this is all groundwork for later changes.
[originally from svn r10079]
Now we wait to open the socket to the X server until we've seen the
authorisation data. This prepares us to do something else with the
channel if we see different auth data, which will come up in
connection sharing.
[originally from svn r10078]
I don't know that this can ever be triggered in the current state of
the code, but when I start mucking around with SSH session closing in
the near future, it may be handy to have it.
[originally from svn r10076]
The most important change is that, where previously ssh.c held the
Socket pointer for each X11 and port forwarding, and the support
modules would find their internal state structure by calling
sk_get_private_ptr on that Socket, it's now the other way round. ssh.c
now directly holds the internal state structure pointer for each
forwarding, and when the support module needs the Socket it looks it
up in a field of that. This will come in handy when I decouple socket
creation from logical forwarding setup, so that X forwardings can
delay actually opening a connection to an X server until they look at
the authentication data and see which server it has to be.
However, while I'm here, I've also taken the opportunity to clean up a
few other points, notably error message handling, and also the fact
that the same kind of state structure was used for both
connection-type and listening-type port forwardings. Now there are
separate PortForwarding and PortListener structure types, which seems
far more sensible.
[originally from svn r10074]
Because the upcoming connection sharing changes are going to involve
us emitting outgoing SSH packets into our log file that we didn't
construct ourselves, we can no longer rely on metadata inserted at
packet construction time to tell us which parts of which packets have
to be blanked or omitted in the SSH packet log. Instead, we now have
functions that deal with constructing the blanks array just before
passing all kinds of packet (both SSH-1 and SSH-2, incoming and
outgoing) to logging.c; the blanks/nblanks fields in struct Packet are
therefore no longer needed.
[originally from svn r10071]
There's always been some confusion over exactly what it all means. I
haven't cleaned it up to the point of complete sensibleness, but I've
got it to a point where I can at least understand and document the
remaining non-sensibleness.

It's now indexed by source hostname as well as source port (so that
separate requests for the server to listen on addr1:1234 and
addr2:1234 can be disambiguated), and also its destination host name
is dynamically allocated rather than a fixed-size buffer.
[originally from svn r10062]
Anthony Ho reports that this can occur naturally in some situation
involving Windows 8 + IE 11 and dynamic port forwarding: apparently we
get through the SOCKS negotiation, send our CHANNEL_OPEN, and then
*immediately* suffer a local WSAECONNABORTED error before the server
has sent back its OPEN_CONFIRMATION or OPEN_FAILURE. In this situation
ssh2_channel_check_close was failing to notice that the channel didn't
yet have a valid server id, and sending out a CHANNEL_CLOSE anyway
containing 32 bits of uninitialised nonsense.
We now handle this by turning our half-open CHAN_SOCKDATA_DORMANT into
a half-open CHAN_ZOMBIE, which means in turn that our handler
functions for OPEN_CONFIRMATION and OPEN_FAILURE have to recognise and
handle that case, the former by immediately initiating channel closure
once we _do_ have the channel's server id to do it with.
[originally from svn r10039]
CHAN_AGENT channels need c->u.a.message to be either NULL or valid
dynamically allocated memory, because it'll be freed by
ssh_channel_destroy. This bug triggers if an agent forwarding channel
is opened and closed without having sent any queries.

We now only present the full set of host key algorithms we can handle
in the first key exchange. In subsequent rekeys, we present only the
host key algorithm that we agreed on the previous time, and then we
verify the host key by simply enforcing that it's exactly the same as
the one we saw at first and disconnecting rudely if it isn't.

sitting on a pile of buffered data waiting for WINDOW_ADJUSTs, we
should throw away that buffered data, because the CHANNEL_CLOSE tells
us that we won't be receiving those WINDOW_ADJUSTs, and if we hang on
to the data and keep trying then it'll prevent ssh_channel_try_eof
from sending the CHANNEL_EOF which is a prerequisite of sending our
own CHANNEL_CLOSE.

RFC 4245 section 7.1 specifies the meaning of the "address to bind"
parameter in a "tcpip-forward" request. "0.0.0.0" and "127.0.0.1" are
specified to be all interfaces and the loopback interface respectively
in IPv4, while "" and "localhost" are the address-family-agnostic
equivalents. Switch PuTTY to using the latter, since it doesn't seem
right to force IPv4.
There's an argument that PuTTY should provide a means of configuring the
address family used for remote forwardings like it does for local ones.

First, make absolute times unsigned. This means that it's safe to
depend on their overflow behaviour (which is undefined for signed
integers). This requires a little extra care in handling comparisons,
but I think I've correctly adjusted them all.
Second, functions registered with schedule_timer() are guaranteed to be
called with precisely the time that was returned by schedule_timer().
Thus, it's only necessary to check these values for equality rather than
doing risky range checks, so do that.
The timing code still does lots that's undefined, unnecessary, or just
wrong, but this is a good start.

confused if they receive a request followed by immediate EOF, since we
currently send outgoing EOF as soon as we see the incoming one - and
then, when the response comes back from the real SSH agent, we send it
along anyway as channel data in spite of having sent EOF.
To fix this, I introduce a new field for each agent channel which
counts the number of calls to ssh_agentf_callback that are currently
expected, and we don't send EOF on an agent channel until we've both
received EOF and that value drops to zero.

Part the first: make sure that all structures describing channel
requests are freed when the SSH connection is freed. This involves
adding a means to ask a response handler to free any memory it holds.
Part the second: in ssh_channel_try_eof(), call
ssh2_channel_check_close() rather than emitting an SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_EOF
directly. This avoids the possibility of closing the channel while a
CHANNEL_REQUEST is outstanding.
Also add some assertions that helped with tracking down the latter
problem.

This reduces code size a little and also makes it harder to

The various setup routines can only receive CHANNEL_SUCCESS or
CHANNEL_FAILURE, so there's no need for the to worry about receiving
anything else. Strange packets will end up in do_ssh2_authconn
instead.
[originally from svn r9619]
Each of the minor start-of-session requests is now dealt with by its own
little co-routine, while the shell/command is done in do_ssh2_authconn()
itself. This eliminates one more round-trip in session setup: PuTTY gets
all the way up to sending a shell request before worrying about any
replies.
[originally from svn r9616]
Now each channel has a queue of arbitrary handlers for those messages,
with anything that sends a CHANNEL_REQUEST with want_reply true pushing
a new entry onto the queue, and a shared handler that dispatches
responses appropriately.
Currently, this is only used for winadj@putty.projects.tartarus.org, but
extending it to cover the initial requests as well shouldn't be too
painful.

Before, NULL in the dispatch table meant "send to the appropriate one of
do_ssh2_transport() and do_ssh2_authconn()". Now those (via small
shims) are specified directly in the dispatch table, so ssh2_protocol()
is much simpler.
In the process, this has somewhat centralised the handling of gross
server protocol violations. PuTTY will now disconnect with a rude
message when (e.g.) OpenSSH sends us an SSH_MSG_UNIMPLEMENTED when we
try to KEXINIT during authentication.

already been thrown away and they're just hanging around waiting to
receive the acknowledging CHANNEL_CLOSE.)
As a result of this and the last few commits, I can now run a port
forwarding session in which a local socket error occurs on a forwarded
port, and PuTTY now handles it apparently correctly, closing both the
SSH channel and the local socket and then actually recognising that
it's OK to terminate when all _other_ channels have been closed.
Previously the channel corresponding to the duff connection would
linger around (because of net_pending_errors never being called), and
keep being selected on (hence chewing CPU), and inhibit program
termination at the end of the session (because not all channels were
closed).

for which we've already sent CHANNEL_CLOSE. It would be embarrassing
if the remote end had also sent CHANNEL_CLOSE in response and then
received our communication once it had forgotten about the channel.

from forwarding data sources which will be good enough to last until
we close the socket, in the form of the override_throttle() functions.
So this finishes up the work in r9283, by manufacturing outgoing EOF
in response to incoming CLOSE on all channel types.

incoming CHANNEL_CLOSE, if it's the main session channel. The idea is
that invocations such as 'plink -T hostname sh' (running a shell
without a remote pty) can be exited by typing 'exit' to the remote
shell, without plink blocking forever waiting for outgoing EOF.
I think it would be better to do the same for all other channel types
too, but that would need an extra API call which I haven't
implemented yet.
[originally from svn r9283]
backend should unilaterally assume outgoing EOF when it sees incoming
EOF, if and only if the main session channel is talking to a pty.
(Because ptys don't have a strong concept of EOF in the first place,
that seems like a sensible place to draw the line.) This fixes a bug
introduced by today's revamp in which if you used Unix Plink to run a
console session it would hang after you hit ^D - because the server
had sent EOF, but it was waiting for a client-side EOF too.
[originally from svn r9282]
data channels. Should comprehensively fix 'half-closed', in principle,
though it's a big and complicated change and so there's a good chance
I've made at least one mistake somewhere.
All connections should now be rigorous about propagating end-of-file
(or end-of-data-stream, or socket shutdown, or whatever) independently
in both directions, except in frontends with no mechanism for sending
explicit EOF (e.g. interactive terminal windows) or backends which are
basically always used for interactive sessions so it's unlikely that
an application would be depending on independent EOF (telnet, rlogin).
EOF should now never accidentally be sent while there's still buffered
data to go out before it. (May help fix 'portfwd-corrupt', and also I
noticed recently that the ssh main session channel can accidentally
have MSG_EOF sent before the output bufchain is clear, leading to
embarrassment when it subsequently does send the output).
[originally from svn r9279]
authentication. We should now produce an Event Log entry for every
authentication attempted and every authentication failure; meanwhile,
messages in the PuTTY window will not be generated for the failure of
auth types unless we also announced in the PuTTY window that we were
trying them. (GSSAPI was getting the latter wrong, leading to spurious
'Access denied' for many users of 0.61.)
[originally from svn r9226]
'Config' in putty.h, which stores all PuTTY's settings and includes an
arbitrary length limit on every single one of those settings which is
stored in string form. In place of it is 'Conf', an opaque data type
everywhere outside the new file conf.c, which stores a list of (key,
value) pairs in which every key contains an integer identifying a
configuration setting, and for some of those integers the key also
contains extra parts (so that, for instance, CONF_environmt is a
string-to-string mapping). Everywhere that a Config was previously
used, a Conf is now; everywhere there was a Config structure copy,
conf_copy() is called; every lookup, adjustment, load and save
operation on a Config has been rewritten; and there's a mechanism for
serialising a Conf into a binary blob and back for use with Duplicate
Session.
User-visible effects of this change _should_ be minimal, though I
don't doubt I've introduced one or two bugs here and there which will
eventually be found. The _intended_ visible effects of this change are
that all arbitrary limits on configuration strings and lists (e.g.
limit on number of port forwardings) should now disappear; that list
boxes in the configuration will now be displayed in a sorted order
rather than the arbitrary order in which they were added to the list
(since the underlying data structure is now a sorted tree234 rather
than an ad-hoc comma-separated string); and one more specific change,
which is that local and dynamic port forwardings on the same port
number are now mutually exclusive in the configuration (putting 'D' in
the key rather than the value was a mistake in the first place).
One other reorganisation as a result of this is that I've moved all
the dialog.c standard handlers (dlg_stdeditbox_handler and friends)
out into config.c, because I can't really justify calling them generic
any more. When they took a pointer to an arbitrary structure type and
the offset of a field within that structure, they were independent of
whether that structure was a Config or something completely different,
but now they really do expect to talk to a Conf, which can _only_ be
used for PuTTY configuration, so I've renamed them all things like
conf_editbox_handler and moved them out of the nominally independent
dialog-box management module into the PuTTY-specific config.c.

option to manually specify a GSS DLL we haven't heard of (which
should in principle Just Work provided it supports proper GSS-API as

it seemed like too useful an idea to reserve to Windows. In

called 'pending_close'. This deals with the situation in which we're
forwarding a port, have received and locally buffered some data from
the local endpoint but not yet been able to pass it down the SSH
connection due to window limitations, and then the local endpoint
closes its socket. In this situation what we've been doing until now
is to immediately send SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_CLOSE, causing the data
still in our local buffer to be lost; now we instead set the new
flag, which will remind us to send SSH2_MSG_CHANNEL_CLOSE _after_ we
empty our bufchain.

we make Ssh_gss_buf into an alias for gss_buffer_desc, though we keep
something similar to the existing behaviour on Windows. This requires
renaming a couple of the fields in Ssh_gss_buf, and hence fixing all
the references.

I haven't got it wrong in some subtle way, but its major benefit is
that we can now support X authority lookups on Windows as well
provided the user points us at an appropriate X authority file in
the standard format. A new Windows-specific config option has been

logging the sequence numbers should make such problems much easier
to diagnose.

because the router also didn't bother to fill in the sequence number

performance. The theory behind this is fairly simple, though the
implementation turns out to be a little trickier than it looks.
The basic idea is that when the connection isn't being limited by our ability
to process data, we want to ensure that the window size _as seen by the server_
never drops to zero. Measuring the server's view of the window size is done
by arranging for it to acknowledge every SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_WINDOW_ADJUST, or
rather an SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST sent just before it. That way we can tell
when it its outgoing data stream it received the window adjustment, and
thus how small the server's view of the window got.
At present, we only ever increase the window size. In theory, we could
arrange to reduce it again if the server's view of it seemed to be persistently
too large, but my experiments suggest that getting this right will be tricky.

This allows us to send data in ssh_init(), albeit at the expense of its not

will hopefully come in useful for debugging wire data corruption
issues: you can strace the server, enable this mode in the client,
and compare the sent and received data.
I'd _like_ to have this mode also log Diffie-Hellman private
exponents, session IDs, encryption and MAC keys, so that the
resulting log file could be used to independently verify the
correctness of all cryptographic operations performed by PuTTY.
However, I haven't been able to convince myself that the security
implications are acceptable. (It doesn't matter that this
information would permit an attacker to decrypt the session, because
the _already_ decrypted session is stored alongside it in the log
file. And I'm not planning, under any circumstances, to log users'
private keys. But gaining access to the log file while the session
was still running would permit an attacker to _hijack_ the session,

abstracted out; replace loops structured around a single interaction
per loop with less tortuous code (fixes: `ki-multiprompt-crash',
`ssh1-bad-passphrase-crash'; makes `ssh2-password-expiry' and
`proxy-password-prompt' easier).
The new interaction abstraction has a lot of fields that are unused in
the current code (things like window captions); this is groundwork for
`gui-auth'. However, ssh.c still writes directly to stderr; that may
want to be fixed.
In the GUI apps, user interaction is moved to terminal.c. This should
make it easier to fix things like UTF-8 username entry, although I
haven't attempted to do so. Also, control character filtering can be
tailored to be appropriate for individual front-ends; so far I don't
promise anything other than not having made it any worse.
