Sagi Bashari and I came up with a way to upgrade SSH without a need for a
physical access to the computer. I sucessfully managed to upgrade SSH this
way. I'd like to share it here.
What you do is compile and install another SSH version, and run sshd on a
different port (say 29). Then, you login through this second ssh daemon,
and compile and install ssh in the original directory. Afterwards, you
kill the old ssh instance, and invoke the new one.
After that you can kill the SSH daemon that ran on port 29.
This reminds me of a riddle: suppose you have a city where the thiefs that
stroll the street steal every package unless it is locked. How is it
possible for one person to send a package to another person, so it will be
delivered safely there?
