Note on v0.0.13.0 release

You may have noticed that we pulled down the v0.0.13.0 release. With that release, we had an introduced a new requirement to securely ACL certain files.

That design proved somewhat premature, and before requiring everyone to re-ACL files across their environment, we decided to pull the release in order to get the design right. Expect a release in the near future that will require some kind re-ACL'ing (but not just yet). 👍

v0.0.12.0

This is a pre-release (non-production ready)

Includes:

• Fixes to several redirection related issues with ssh.exe and sftp.exe
  • Following will now work
    • ssh ... > out.txt
    • $o = ssh ... (in Powershell)
    • sftp -b .... > out.txt
• Removal of ssh-lsa.dll. There is now no reboot restriction on setup.

and other misc issues listed here

Note
It seems that the key based authentication is not working for docker containers. For docker scenarios, continue using v0.0.11.0 until this issue is fixed.

v0.0.11.0

This is a pre-release (non-production ready)

NOTE - Breaking Change

• Due to a security issue that got fixed in this release, SSHD account now needs read access to "authorized_keys. Otherwise pubkey authentication will fail. Do the following:

   $authorizedKeyPath = "c:\users\user\.ssh\authorized_keys"
   $acl = get-acl $authorizedKeyPath
   $ar = New-Object  System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule("NT Service\sshd", "Read", "Allow")
   $acl.SetAccessRule($ar)
   Set-Acl  $authorizedKeyPath $acl
