This is OpenSSH version 7.2p2 for SLE12
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.
* 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).
* SSH protocol version 1 is enabled for maximum compatibility.
NOTE: do not use protocol version 1. It is less secure then v2 and should
generally be phased out.
* 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.
