Hi team!
Oracle Linux 8.9
5.4.17-2136.326.6.el8uek.x86_64
OpenSSH_8.0p1, OpenSSL 1.1.1k
After upgrading to
Name : openssh
Version : 8.0p1
Release : 19.el8_9.2
cannot ssh anymore using chacha20-poly1305 cipher getting Bad packet length and Connection corrupted errors. Everything works using, for example, AES256.
Openssh rollback to the previous version fixes the issue.
Could it be a bug? Thanks

Can you post logs/evidences on the issue you're facing ? Please share also the client details and OS! Thanks

P.S. with Ubuntu clients this issue is present by default (looks like it prefers chacha20-poly1305 by default)
Another affected client example:
OpenSSH_8.9p1 Ubuntu-3ubuntu0.6, OpenSSL 3.0.2 15 Mar 2022
Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS

openssh update perfomed on Feb 2 2024 breaks login with default ciphers.
aes256-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes128-ctr all fail with
Corrupted MAC on input.

Client: Centos9 Stream
loopiv commented
Seeing the same issue from Ubuntu to OL8 systems. From a bug report at Ubuntu:
I believe this issue is caused by a bad backport in Oracle's 8.0p1-19.el8_9.2 package. I think their fix for CVE-2023-48795 isn't properly adding kex-strict-s-v00@openssh.com to their KEX. Downgrading the Ubuntu package works around the problem as that prevents the client from offering kex-strict-c-v00@openssh.com.

Just to add me too. We also experienced exactly the same problems with SSH interconnectivity since the last update.
ties commented
It would help my situation if there is a new release that machines with the faulty package will update to.
