Changes in the Handler traits

859e685: refactor Handler trait to use mutable reference instead of owned variables (Alessandro Ricottone) #247

The Handler traits no longer take ownership of both self and Session or have to return them. These have been replaced with normal &mut references.

You will need to update your Handler impls to match the new method signatures, for example:

     async fn channel_open_session(
-        self,
+        &mut self,
         channel: Channel<Msg>,
-        session: Session,
+        session: &mut Session,
-    ) -> Result<(Self, bool, Session), Self::Error> {
+    ) -> Result<bool, Self::Error> {
         ...
-        Ok((self, true, session))
+        Ok(true)
     }
 
     async fn auth_publickey(
-        self,
+        &mut self,
         _: &str,
         _: &key::PublicKey,
-    ) -> Result<(Self, server::Auth), Self::Error> {
+    ) -> Result<server::Auth, Self::Error> {
         ...
-        Ok((self, server::Auth::Accept))
+        Ok(server::Auth::Accept)
     }

russh::server::run moved into the Server trait

a592366: Move run and run_on_socket to Server trait (Alessandro Ricottone) #247

You'll need to replace the call to run with a call to Server::run_on_address, for example:

-    russh::server::run(config, ("0.0.0.0", 2222), &mut server).await?;
+    server.run_on_address(config, ("0.0.0.0", 2222)).await?;
 }

v0.40.2

Security fixes

CVE-2023-48795 - Terrapin Attack [a355c62]

A flaw in the SSH protocol itself allows an active MitM attacker to prevent the client & server from negotiating OpenSSH security extensions, or, with AsyncSSH, take control of the user's session.

This release adds the support for the kex-strict-*[email protected] extensions designed by OpenSSH specifically to prevent this attack.

v0.39.0

Breaking changes

• The behaviour or server::Handler::auth_publickey method has been changed.
  • Previously, this method was called before the public key's signature was verified and if you didn't pay attention to the documentation, your application might interpret this call as a successful public key authentication. In reality, it's only meant to decide whether to accept the public key offer from the client or not.
  • Now, the method is called after the signature is verified and the return value is used to decide whether to accept the authentication or not.
  • The old method has been renamed to auth_publickey_offer and will accept all offers by default.
  • If you have not relied on the incorrect interpretation of auth_publickey method, no action is needed.
  • If you explicitly want to control whether public key offers are accepted or not, additionally implement auth_publickey_offer.
  • N.B.: In OpenSSH, the difference in user experience between rejecting a public key offer and rejecting a public key authentication is whether the key passphrase prompt has been shown.
