summary: Cipher "des-cbc" is less non-standard than PuTTY claims class: bug: This is clearly an actual problem we want fixed. difficulty: fun: Just needs tuits, and not many of them. priority: low: We aren't sure whether to fix this or not. present-in: 2003-02-11 fixed-in: 2003-10-09 a03d04ba7530437271bb22fa7b8205b910d144dc (0.54)
According to
draft-ietf-secsh-assignednumbers-04.txt, "des-cbc" is one of the
assigned cipher names for SSH-2. PuTTY currently describes it (in the
configuration box, the documentation, and comments in sshdes.c) as
non-standard.
OSD: toned down "non-standard" to "legacy", which I claim fixes this.
