+libssh2 1.2.8
This release includes the following changes:
- o Added Watcom makefile
+ o added libssh2_free, libssh2_channel_get_exit_signal and
+ libssh2_session_handshake
+ o SFTP read/write remade and now MUCH faster, especially on high latency
+ connections
+ o added new examples: ssh2_echo.c, sftp_append.c and sftp_write_sliding.c
+ o userauth: derive publickey from private
+ o NEWS: now generated from git
This release includes the following bugfixes:
- o Better handling of invalid key files
- o inputchecks: make lots of API functions check for NULL pointers
- o libssh2_session_callback_set: extended the man page
- o SFTP: limit write() to not produce overly large packets
- o agent: make libssh2_agent_userauth() work blocking properly
- o _libssh2_userauth_publickey: reject method names longer than the data
- o channel_free: ignore problems with channel_close()
- o typedef: make ssize_t get typedef without LIBSSH2_WIN32
- o _libssh2_wait_socket: poll needs milliseconds
- o libssh2_wait_socket: reset error code to "leak" EAGAIN less
- o Added include for sys/select.h to get fd.set on some platforms
- o session_free: free more data to avoid memory leaks
- o openssl: make use of the EVP interface
- o Fix underscore typo for 64-bit printf format specifiers on Windows
- o Make libssh2_debug() create a correctly terminated string
- o userauth_hostbased_fromfile: packet length too short
- o handshake: Compression enabled at the wrong time
- o Don't overflow MD5 server hostkey
+ o Support unlimited number of host names in a single line of the
+ known_hosts file.
+ o fix memory leak in userauth_keyboard_interactive()
+ o fix memory leaks (two times cipher_data) for each sftp session
+ o session_startup: manage server data before server identification
+ o SCP: allow file names with bytes > 126
+ o scp_recv: improved treatment of channel_read() returning zero
+ o libssh2_userauth_authenticated: make it work as documented
+ o variable size cleanup: match internal variable sizes better with the sizes
+ of the fields used on the wire
+ o channel_request_pty_size: fix reqPTY_state
+ o sftp_symlink: return error if receive buffer too small
+ o sftp_readdir: return error if buffer is too small
+ o libssh2_knownhost_readfile.3: clarify return value
+ o configure: stop using the deprecated AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE syntax
+ o Fixed Win32 makefile which was now broken at resource build
+ o kex_agree_hostkey: fix NULL pointer derefence
+ o _libssh2_ntohu64: fix conversion from network bytes to uint64
+ o ssize_t: proper typedef with MSVC compilers
+ o zlib: Add debug tracing of zlib errors
+ o decomp: increase decompression buffer sizes
This release would not have looked like this without help, code, reports and
advice from friends like these:

- John Little, Daniel Stenberg, TJ Saunders, Tor Arntsen

Thanks! (and sorry if I forgot to mention someone)
