** Description changed: - OpenSSH 6.8 to 7.1 has a regression that breaks connections from clients - that use SSH first_kex_follows feature. This affects connections from - the Dropbear SSH client (dbclient), they fail with "bad hostkey - signature" or similar. It may affect ssh.com clients too. + OpenSSH versions between 6.8 and 7.1 inclusive have a regression that + breaks connections from clients that use SSH first_kex_follows feature. + This affects connections from the Dropbear SSH client (dbclient), they + fail with "bad hostkey signature" or similar. It may affect ssh.com + clients too. This has been fixed in upstream in the attached patch, it would be worthwhile including in Xenial if it's going to ship with the current OpenSSH 7.1.
