This is a Linux/portable port of OpenBSD’s excellent OpenSSH. OpenSSH is based on the last free version of Tatu Ylonen’s SSH with all patent-encumbered algorithms removed, all known security bugs fixed, new features reintroduced, and many other clean-ups.

Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. It also enables software developers to create new communication tools with built-in privacy features. It provides the foundation for a range of applications that allow organizations and individuals to share information over public networks without compromising their privacy. Individuals can use it to keep remote Websites from tracking them and their family members. They can also use it to connect to resources such as news sites or instant messaging services that are blocked by their local Internet service providers (ISPs).

Red Hat Security Advisory 2016-1538-01 – The golang packages provide the Go programming language compiler. The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version: golang. Security Fix: An input-validation flaw was discovered in the Go programming language built in CGI implementation, which set the environment variable “HTTP_PROXY” using the incoming “Proxy” HTTP-request header. The environment variable “HTTP_PROXY” is used by numerous web clients, including Go’s net/http package, to specify a proxy server to use for HTTP and, in some cases, HTTPS requests. This meant that when a CGI-based web application ran, an attacker could specify a proxy server which the application then used for subsequent outgoing requests, allowing a man-in-the-middle attack.
