| - | This is list of changes for each release of WinSCP. See also [[project_history|project history]]. | + | This is a full list of changes for each release of WinSCP. See also [[project_history|Project history]] and [[incompatible_changes|Incompatible changes between versions]]. |
| - | ===== Not Released Yet ===== | + | ===== [[6.4]] 6.4 (not released yet) ((2024-05-07)) ===== |
| - | === 2008-01-21 === | + | |
| - | * SSH core upgraded to [[&url(puttychanges)|PuTTY 0.60]]. It brings following changes: | + | |
| - | * Support for "local proxying", where a network connection is replaced by a local command. | + | |
| - | * Various cryptographic improvements in SSH-2, including SDCTR cipher modes and a workaround for a weakness in CBC cipher modes. Support for Diffie-Hellman group exchange with SHA-256 was not included due to performance problems. | + | |
| - | * Support for the Arcfour cipher in SSH-2. | + | |
| - | * When Pageant is running and an SSH key is specified in the configuration, WinSCP will now only try Pageant authentication with that key. This gets round a problem where some servers would only allow a limited number of keys to be offered before disconnecting. | + | |
| - | * Support for SSH-2 password expiry mechanisms, and various other improvements and bugfixes in authentication. | + | |
| - | * A change to the SSH-2 password camouflage mechanism in 0.58 upset some Cisco servers, so we have reverted to the old method. | + | |
| - | * Random seed file is being stored to application data folder when possible. | + | |
| - | * Bug fix: SSH-1 connections tended to crash, particularly when using port forwarding. | + | |

| - | * New patterns for custom commands: ''!/'' expands to current remote path, ''!@'' expands to current session hostname. | + | |
| - | * Transfer and session toolbars automatically stretches to right window edge. | + | |

| - | * Search direction can be specified. | + | |
