CVE description :
The recv_msg_userauth_request function in svr-auth.c in Dropbear through
2018.76 is prone to a user enumeration vulnerability because username
validity affects how fields in SSH_MSG_USERAUTH messages are handled,
a similar issue to CVE-2018-15473 in an unrelated codebase.

<title>dropbear: close all active clients on shutdown</title>

Override the default shutdown action (stop) and close all processes
of dropbear

Since commit 498fe85, the stop action only closes the process
that's listening for new connections, maintaining the ones with
existing clients.
This poses a problem when restarting or shutting-down a device,
because the connections with existing SSH clients, like OpenSSH,
are not properly closed, causing them to hang.

This situation can be avoided by closing all dropbear processes when
shutting-down the system, which closes properly the connections with
current clients.

<title>dropbear: add option to set receive window size</title>

<id>1c308bbbf598e09e463f67686ff4b7dafcb98ae6</id>
<content type='text'>
The default receive window size in dropbear is hardcoded to 24576 byte
to limit memory usage. This value was chosen for 100Mbps networks, and
limits the throughput of scp on faster networks. It also severely limits
scp throughput on high-latency links.

Add an option to set the receive window size so that people can improve
performance without having to recompile dropbear.

Setting the window size to the highest value supported by dropbear
improves throughput from my build machine to an APU2 on the same LAN
from 7MB/s to 7.9MB/s, and to an APU2 over a link with ~65ms latency
from 320KB/s to 7.5MB/s.

<title>dropbear: disable MD5 HMAC and switch to sha1 fingerprints</title>

<content type='text'>
As MD5 is known weak for many years and more and more
penetration test tools complain about enabled MD5 HMAC
I think it's time to drop it.

By disabling the MD5 HMAC support dropbear  will also
automatically use SHA1 for fingerprints.
This shouldn't be a problem too.

Adds config option to enable compression support which is usefull
when using a terminal sessions over a slow link. Impact on binary
size is negligible but additional 60 kB (uncompressed) is needed for
a shared zlib library.
