    <p>An update that contains two features and has one fix can now be installed.</p>

    


    
        <h2>Description:</h2>
    
    <p>This update for libcbor, libfido2, openssh8.4 fixes the following issues:</p>
<p>This update brings a parallel installable version of openssh 8.4 (same as SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 version).</p>
<p>This release contains:</p>
<ul>
<li>added cryptographic ciphers required by various compliance standards</li>
<li>FIDO key support</li>
<li>more</li>
</ul>
<p>The default openssh is kept as there might be incompatibilities between configurations.</p>
<p>A transition to openssh 8.4 needs to be triggered manually by doing:</p>
<pre><code>    zypper in openssh8.4-server
    zypper in openssh8.4-clients
</code></pre>
<p>When zypper prompts you, select deinstallation of the regular openssh and installation of the new openssh8.4 packages.</p>
<p>After doing this review if the service starts or if it needs configuration adjustments.</p>
<p>If sshd.service was default enabled before, you will need to also enable it again doing these once:</p>
<pre><code>systemctl enable sshd.service
systemctl start sshd.service
</code></pre>
<p>This update also shops libfido2 supporting the FIDO keys.</p>
<p>openssh was also enhanced to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Add conflicts with openssh8.4-(server|clients|common) packages
  to make the downgrading from openssh 8.4 back to 7.2 easier
  (SLE-24929, bsc#1201750)</li>
</ul>
