[Bug 1443] New: Missing terminating CR in identification string (RFC non-compliance)
https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1443

Summary: Missing terminating CR in identification string (RFC
non-compliance)
Classification: Unclassified
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 4.7p1
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P2
Component: ssh
AssignedTo: bitbucket@mindrot.org
ReportedBy: alexreg@gmail.com


Client should terminate ID string sent during protocol version exchange
with CR LF (carriage return, line feed) rather than only LF, as is done
in the current version. RFC 2453
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4253#section-4.2) suggests that CR LF
should be used to terminate the sent line while either CR LF or just LF
may be expected in a received ID string (for compatibility with older
protocol versions).
