    Description:

    openssh was updated to fix three security issues.

    These security issues were fixed:
    - CVE-2016-3115: Multiple CRLF injection vulnerabilities in session.c in
    sshd in OpenSSH allowed remote authenticated users to bypass intended
    shell-command restrictions via crafted X11 forwarding data, related to
    the (1) do_authenticated1 and (2) session_x11_req functions
    (bsc#970632).
    - CVE-2016-1908: Possible fallback from untrusted to trusted X11
    forwarding (bsc#962313).
    - CVE-2015-8325: Ignore PAM environment vars when UseLogin=yes
    (bsc#975865).

    These non-security issues were fixed:
    - Correctly parse GSSAPI KEX algorithms (bsc#961368)
    - More verbose FIPS mode/CC related documentation in README.FIPS
    (bsc#965576, bsc#960414)
    - Fix PRNG re-seeding (bsc#960414, bsc#729190)
    - Disable DH parameters under 2048 bits by default and allow lowering the
    limit back to the RFC 4419 specified minimum through an option
    (bsc#932483, bsc#948902)
    - Allow empty Match blocks (bsc#961494)
