#8554: Support chacha20-poly1305 at openssh.com cipher
-----------------------+--------------------------
Reporter: lbort | Owner: dkocher
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: sftp | Version: 4.6.4
Severity: normal | Keywords: ssh, ciphers
Architecture: Intel | Platform:
-----------------------+--------------------------
This is in the line of tickets #8488, #8528 and #8537, but not as urgent
as the key exchange algorithms.
Apparently the ciphers aes256-ctr, aes192-ctr and aes128-ctr which are
left after #8537 are still secure if Encrypt-then-MAC is used, but they do
not offer authenticated encryption. Chacha20-poly1305 fixes this.
