Patch courtesy of Dennis Kaarsemaker. +* :bug:`60 major` (via :issue:`1037`) Paramiko originally defaulted to zlib + compression level 9 (when one connects with ``compression=True``; it defaults + to off.) This has been found to be quite wasteful and tends to cause much + longer transfers in most cases, than is necessary. + + OpenSSH defaults to compression level 6, which is a much more reasonable + setting (nearly identical compression characteristics but noticeably, + sometimes significantly, faster transmission); Paramiko now uses this value + instead. + + Thanks to Damien Dubé for the report and ``@DrNeutron`` for investigating & + submitting the patch. +* :support:`-` Display exception type and message when logging auth-rejection + messages (ones reading ``Auth rejected: unsupported or mangled public key``); + previously this error case had a bare except and did not display exactly why + the key failed. It will now append info such as ``KeyError: + 'some-unknown-type-string'`` or similar. +* :feature:`1042` (also partially :issue:`531`) Implement basic client-side + certificate authentication (as per the OpenSSH vendor extension.) + + The core implementation is `PKey.load_certificate + <paramiko.pkey.PKey.load_certificate>` and its corresponding ``.public_blob`` + attribute on key objects, which is honored in the auth and transport modules. + Additionally, `SSHClient.connect <paramiko.client.SSHClient.connect>` will + now automatically load certificate data alongside private key data when one + has appropriately-named cert files (e.g. ``id_rsa-cert.pub``) - see its + docstring for details. + + Thanks to Jason Rigby for a first draft (:issue:`531`) and to Paul Kapp for + the second draft, upon which the current functionality has been based (with + modifications.) + + .. note:: + This support is client-focused; Paramiko-driven server code is capable of + handling cert-bearing pubkey auth packets, *but* it does not interpret any + cert-specific fields, so the end result is functionally identical to a + vanilla pubkey auth process (and thus requires e.g. prepopulated + authorized-keys data.) We expect full server-side cert support to follow + later. + +* :support:`1041` Modify logic around explicit disconnect + messages, and unknown-channel situations, so that they rely on centralized + shutdown code instead of running their own. This is at worst removing some + unnecessary code, and may help with some situations where Paramiko hangs at + the end of a session. Thanks to Paul Kapp for the patch. * :support:`1012` (via :issue:`1016`) Enhance documentation around the new `SFTP.posix_rename <paramiko.sftp_client.SFTPClient.posix_rename>` method so it's referenced in the 'standard' ``rename`` method for increased visibility. |
