   An update that solves 5 vulnerabilities and has two fixes
   is now available.

Description:


   This update for openssh fixes several issues.

   These security issues were fixed:

   - CVE-2016-8858: The kex_input_kexinit function in kex.c allowed remote
     attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by sending
     many duplicate KEXINIT requests (bsc#1005480).
   - CVE-2016-10012: The shared memory manager (associated with
     pre-authentication compression) did not ensure that a bounds check is
     enforced by all compilers, which might allowed local users to gain
     privileges by leveraging access to a sandboxed privilege-separation
     process, related to the m_zback and m_zlib data structures (bsc#1016370).
   - CVE-2016-10009: Untrusted search path vulnerability in ssh-agent.c
     allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary local PKCS#11 modules by
     leveraging control over a forwarded agent-socket (bsc#1016366).
   - CVE-2016-10010: When forwarding unix domain sockets with privilege
     separation disabled, the resulting sockets have be created as 'root'
     instead of the authenticated user. Forwarding unix domain sockets
     without privilege separation enabled is now rejected.
   - CVE-2016-10011: authfile.c in sshd did not properly consider the effects
     of realloc on buffer contents, which might allowed local users to obtain
     sensitive private-key information by leveraging access to a
     privilege-separated child process (bsc#1016369).

   These non-security issues were fixed:

   - Adjusted suggested command for removing conflicting server keys from the
     known_hosts file (bsc#1006221)
   - Properly verify CIDR masks in configuration (bsc#1005893)
