* :bug:`502` Fix an issue in server mode, when processing an exec request.
A command that is not a valid UTF-8 string, caused an UnicodeDecodeError.
+* :bug:`401` Fix line number reporting in log output regarding invalid
+ ``known_hosts`` line entries. Thanks to Dylan Thacker-Smith for catch &
+ patch.
+* :support:`525 backported` Update the vendored Windows API addon to a more
+ recent edition. Also fixes :issue:`193`, :issue:`488`, :issue:`498`. Thanks
+ to Jason Coombs.
+* :release:`1.15.4 <2015-11-02>`
+* :release:`1.14.3 <2015-11-02>`
+* :release:`1.13.4 <2015-11-02>`
+* :bug:`366` Fix `~paramiko.sftp_attributes.SFTPAttributes` so its string
+ representation doesn't raise exceptions on empty/initialized instances. Patch
+ by Ulrich Petri.
+* :bug:`359` Use correct attribute name when trying to use Python 3's
+ ``int.bit_length`` method; prior to fix, the Python 2 custom fallback
+ implementation was always used, even on Python 3. Thanks to Alex Gaynor.
+* :support:`594 backported` Correct some post-Python3-port docstrings to
+ specify ``bytes`` type instead of ``str``. Credit to ``@redixin``.
+* :bug:`565` Don't explode with ``IndexError`` when reading private key files
+ lacking an ``-----END <type> PRIVATE KEY-----`` footer. Patch courtesy of
+ Prasanna Santhanam.
+* :feature:`604` Add support for the ``aes192-ctr`` and ``aes192-cbc`` ciphers.
+ Thanks to Michiel Tiller for noticing it was as easy as tweaking some key
+ sizes :D
+* :feature:`356` (also :issue:`596`, :issue:`365`, :issue:`341`, :issue:`164`,
+ :issue:`581`, and a bunch of other duplicates besides) Add support for SHA-2
+ based key exchange (kex) algorithm ``diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256``
+ and (H)MAC algorithms ``hmac-sha2-256`` and ``hmac-sha2-512``.
+
+ This change includes tweaks to debug-level logging regarding
+ algorithm-selection handshakes; the old all-in-one log line is now multiple
+ easier-to-read, printed-at-handshake-time log lines.
+
+ Thanks to the many people who submitted patches for this functionality and/or
+ assisted in testing those patches. That list includes but is not limited to,
+ and in no particular order: Matthias Witte, Dag Wieers, Ash Berlin, Etienne
+ Perot, Gert van Dijk, ``@GuyShaanan``, Aaron Bieber, ``@cyphase``, and Eric
+ Brown.
+* :release:`1.15.3 <2015-10-02>`
+* :support:`554 backported` Fix inaccuracies in the docstring for the ECDSA key
+ class. Thanks to Jared Hance for the patch.
+* :support:`516 backported` Document `~paramiko.agent.AgentRequestHandler`.
+ Thanks to ``@toejough`` for report & suggestions.
+* :bug:`496` Fix a handful of small but critical bugs in Paramiko's GSSAPI
+ support (note: this includes switching from PyCrypo's Random to
+ `os.urandom`). Thanks to Anselm Kruis for catch & patch.
+* :bug:`491` (combines :issue:`62` and :issue:`439`) Implement timeout
+ functionality to address hangs from dropped network connections and/or failed
+ handshakes. Credit to ``@vazir`` and ``@dacut`` for the original patches and
+ to Olle Lundberg for reimplementation.
+* :bug:`490` Skip invalid/unparseable lines in ``known_hosts`` files, instead
+ of raising `~paramiko.ssh_exception.SSHException`. This brings Paramiko's
+ behavior more in line with OpenSSH, which silently ignores such input. Catch
+ & patch courtesy of Martin Topholm.
+* :bug:`404` Print details when displaying
+ `~paramiko.ssh_exception.BadHostKeyException` objects (expected vs received
+ data) instead of just "hey shit broke". Patch credit: Loic Dachary.
+* :bug:`469` (also :issue:`488`, :issue:`461` and like a dozen others) Fix a
+ typo introduced in the 1.15 release which broke WinPageant support. Thanks to
+ everyone who submitted patches, and to Steve Cohen who was the lucky winner
+ of the cherry-pick lottery.
+* :bug:`353` (via :issue:`482`) Fix a bug introduced in the Python 3 port
+ which caused ``OverFlowError`` (and other symptoms) in SFTP functionality.
+ Thanks to ``@dboreham`` for leading the troubleshooting charge, and to
+ Scott Maxwell for the final patch.
+* :support:`582` Fix some old ``setup.py`` related helper code which was
+ breaking ``bdist_dumb`` on Mac OS X. Thanks to Peter Odding for the patch.
+* :bug:`22 major` Try harder to connect to multiple network families (e.g. IPv4
+ vs IPv6) in case of connection issues; this helps with problems such as hosts
+ which resolve both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses but are only listening on IPv4.
+ Thanks to Dries Desmet for original report and Torsten Landschoff for the
+ foundational patchset.
+* :bug:`402` Check to see if an SSH agent is actually present before trying to
+ forward it to the remote end. This replaces what was usually a useless
+ ``TypeError`` with a human-readable
+ `~paramiko.ssh_exception.AuthenticationException`. Credit to Ken Jordan for
+ the fix and Yvan Marques for original report.

* :release:`1.13.3 <2014-12-19>`
* :bug:`413` (also :issue:`414`, :issue:`420`, :issue:`454`) Be significantly
smarter about polling & timing behavior when running proxy commands, to avoid
unnecessary (often 100%!) CPU usage. Major thanks to Jason Dunsmore for
report & initial patchset and to Chris Adams & John Morrissey for followup
improvements.
+* :bug:`455` Tweak packet size handling to conform better to the OpenSSH RFCs;
+ this helps address issues with interactive program cursors. Courtesy of Jeff
+ Quast.
* :bug:`428` Fix an issue in `~paramiko.file.BufferedFile` (primarily used in
the SFTP modules) concerning incorrect behavior by
`~paramiko.file.BufferedFile.readlines` on files whose size exceeds the
buffer size. Thanks to ``@achapp`` for catch & patch.
+* :bug:`415` Fix ``ssh_config`` parsing to correctly interpret ``ProxyCommand
+ none`` as the lack of a proxy command, instead of as a literal command string
+ of ``"none"``. Thanks to Richard Spiers for the catch & Sean Johnson for the
+ fix.
+* :support:`431 backported` Replace handrolled ``ssh_config`` parsing code with
+ use of the ``shlex`` module. Thanks to Yan Kalchevskiy.
* :support:`422 backported` Clean up some unused imports. Courtesy of Olle
Lundberg.
+* :support:`421 backported` Modernize threading calls to user newer API. Thanks
+ to Olle Lundberg.
+* :support:`419 backported` Modernize a bunch of the codebase internals to
+ leverage decorators. Props to ``@beckjake`` for realizing we're no longer on
+ Python 2.2 :D
* :bug:`266` Change numbering of `~paramiko.transport.Transport` channels to
start at 0 instead of 1 for better compatibility with OpenSSH & certain
server implementations which break on 1-indexed channels. Thanks to

+* :release:`1.15.1 <2014-09-22>`
+* :bug:`399` SSH agent forwarding (potentially other functionality as

+* :release:`1.15.0 <2014-09-18>`
+* :support:`393` Replace internal use of PyCrypto's ``SHA.new`` with the
+ stdlib's ``hashlib.sha1``. Thanks to Alex Gaynor.
+* :feature:`267` (also :issue:`250`, :issue:`241`, :issue:`228`) Add GSS-API /
+ SSPI (e.g. Kerberos) key exchange and authentication support
+ (:ref:`installation docs here <gssapi>`). Mega thanks to Sebastian Deiß, with
+ assist by Torsten Landschoff.
+
+ .. note::
+ Unix users should be aware that the ``python-gssapi`` library (a

+ Python 2.7 and up at this time.
+
+* :bug:`346 major` Fix an issue in private key files' encryption salts that
+ could cause tracebacks and file corruption if keys were re-encrypted. Credit
+ to Xavier Nunn.
+* :feature:`362` Allow users to control the SSH banner timeout. Thanks to Cory
+ Benfield.
+* :feature:`372` Update default window & packet sizes to more closely adhere to
+ the pertinent RFC; also expose these settings in the public API so they may
+ be overridden by client code. This should address some general speed issues
+ such as :issue:`175`. Big thanks to Olle Lundberg for the update.
+* :bug:`373 major` Attempt to fix a handful of issues (such as :issue:`354`)
+ related to infinite loops and threading deadlocks. Thanks to Olle Lundberg as
+ well as a handful of community members who provided advice & feedback via
+ IRC.
+* :support:`374` (also :issue:`375`) Old code cleanup courtesy of Olle
+ Lundberg.
+* :support:`377` Factor `~paramiko.channel.Channel` openness sanity check into
+ a decorator. Thanks to Olle Lundberg for original patch.
+* :bug:`298 major` Don't perform point validation on ECDSA keys in
+ ``known_hosts`` files, since a) this can cause significant slowdown when such
+ keys exist, and b) ``known_hosts`` files are implicitly trustworthy. Thanks
+ to Kieran Spear for catch & patch.
+
+ .. note::
+ This change bumps up the version requirement for the ``ecdsa`` library to
+ ``0.11``.
+
+* :bug:`234 major` Lower logging levels for a few overly-noisy log messages
+ about secure channels. Thanks to David Pursehouse for noticing & contributing
+ the fix.
+* :feature:`218` Add support for ECDSA private keys on the client side. Thanks
+ to ``@aszlig`` for the patch.
+* :bug:`335 major` Fix ECDSA key generation (generation of brand new ECDSA keys
+ was broken previously). Thanks to ``@solarw`` for catch & patch.
+* :feature:`184` Support quoted values in SSH config file parsing. Credit to
+ Yan Kalchevskiy.
+* :feature:`131` Add a `~paramiko.sftp_client.SFTPClient.listdir_iter` method
