Selected highlights from the release notes:

Potentially-incompatible changes

- This release removes support for the weak DSA signature algorithm.
  [This change was previously merged to FreeBSD main.]

- This release has the version number 10.0 and announces itself as
  "SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_10.0".  Software that naively matches versions using
  patterns like "OpenSSH_1*" may be confused by this.

- sshd(8): this release removes the code responsible for the user
  authentication phase of the protocol from the per-connection
  sshd-session binary to a new sshd-auth binary.

Security

- sshd(8): fix the DisableForwarding directive, which was failing to
  disable X11 forwarding and agent forwarding as documented.
  [This change was previously merged to FreeBSD main.]

New features

- ssh(1): the hybrid post-quantum algorithm mlkem768x25519-sha256 is now
  used by default for key agreement.

Commit 9d63429fa163 ("ssh: move common Makefile boilerplate to a new
ssh.mk") introduced ssh.mk for common OpenSSH paths and flags, as part
of enabling FIDO/U2F.  Move duplicated MK_LDNS and MK_TCP_WRAPPERS
handling there.

Future deprecation notice
=========================

OpenSSH plans to remove support for the DSA signature algorithm in
early 2025.

Potentially-incompatible changes
--------------------------------

 * sshd(8): the server will now block client addresses that
   repeatedly fail authentication, repeatedly connect without ever
   completing authentication or that crash the server. See the
   discussion of PerSourcePenalties below for more information.
   Operators of servers that accept connections from many users, or
   servers that accept connections from addresses behind NAT or
   proxies may need to consider these settings.

 * sshd(8): the server has been split into a listener binary, sshd(8),
   and a per-session binary "sshd-session". This allows for a much
   smaller listener binary, as it no longer needs to support the SSH
   protocol. As part of this work, support for disabling privilege
   separation (which previously required code changes to disable) and
   disabling re-execution of sshd(8) has been removed. Further
   separation of sshd-session into additional, minimal binaries is
   planned for the future.

 * sshd(8): several log messages have changed. In particular, some
   log messages will be tagged with as originating from a process
   named "sshd-session" rather than "sshd".

 * ssh-keyscan(1): this tool previously emitted comment lines
   containing the hostname and SSH protocol banner to standard error.
   This release now emits them to standard output, but adds a new
   "-q" flag to silence them altogether.

 * sshd(8): (portable OpenSSH only) sshd will no longer use argv[0]
   as the PAM service name. A new "PAMServiceName" sshd_config(5)
   directive allows selecting the service name at runtime. This
   defaults to "sshd". bz2101

New features
------------

 * sshd(8): sshd(8) will now penalise client addresses that, for various
   reasons, do not successfully complete authentication. This feature is
   controlled by a new sshd_config(5) PerSourcePenalties option and is
   on by default.

 * ssh(8): allow the HostkeyAlgorithms directive to disable the
   implicit fallback from certificate host key to plain host keys.

Portability
-----------

 * sshd(8): expose SSH_AUTH_INFO_0 always to PAM auth modules
   unconditionally. The previous behaviour was to expose it only when
   particular authentication methods were in use.

 * ssh(1), ssh-agent(8): allow the presence of the WAYLAND_DISPLAY
   environment variable to enable SSH_ASKPASS, similarly to the X11
   DISPLAY environment variable. GHPR479
