Version update to 8.1p1:
* ssh-keygen(1): when acting as a CA and signing certificates with
an RSA key, default to using the rsa-sha2-512 signature algorithm.
Certificates signed by RSA keys will therefore be incompatible
with OpenSSH versions prior to 7.2 unless the default is
overridden (using "ssh-keygen -t ssh-rsa -s ...").
* ssh(1): Allow %n to be expanded in ProxyCommand strings
* ssh(1), sshd(8): Allow prepending a list of algorithms to the
default set by starting the list with the '^' character, E.g.
"HostKeyAlgorithms ^ssh-ed25519"
* ssh-keygen(1): add an experimental lightweight signature and
verification ability. Signatures may be made using regular ssh keys
held on disk or stored in a ssh-agent and verified against an
authorized_keys-like list of allowed keys. Signatures embed a
namespace that prevents confusion and attacks between different
usage domains (e.g. files vs email).
* ssh-keygen(1): print key comment when extracting public key from a
private key.
* ssh-keygen(1): accept the verbose flag when searching for host keys
in known hosts (i.e. "ssh-keygen -vF host") to print the matching
host's random-art signature too.
* All: support PKCS8 as an optional format for storage of private
keys to disk. The OpenSSH native key format remains the default,
but PKCS8 is a superior format to PEM if interoperability with
non-OpenSSH software is required, as it may use a less insecure
key derivation function than PEM's.
- Additional changes from 8.0p1 release:
* scp(1): Add "-T" flag to disable client-side filtering of
server file list.
* sshd(8): Remove support for obsolete "host/port" syntax.

There are following changes in default settings of ssh client and server: * Accepting and sending of locale environment variables in protocol 2 is enabled. * PAM authentication is enabled and mostly even required, do not turn it off. * root authentiation with password is enabled by default (PermitRootLogin yes). NOTE: this has security implications and is only done in order to not change behaviour of the server in an update. We strongly suggest setting this option either "prohibit-password" or even better to "no" (which disables direct remote root login entirely). * DSA authentication is enabled by default for maximum compatibility. NOTE: do not use DSA authentication since it is being phased out for a reason - the size of DSA keys is limited by the standard to 1024 bits which cannot be considered safe any more. * Accepting all RFC4419 specified DH group parameters. See KexDHMin in ssh_config and sshd_config manual pages. For more information on differences in SUSE OpenSSH package see README.FIPS
