Greetings,

On behalf of the SSHGuard Team, it is my pleasure to announce the
1.6.0 release. This release is the first in the 1.6 branch and comes
after more than four years of development.

This release is tagged as 'v1.6.0' on Bitbucket [1] and source
tarballs are available from SourceForge [2]. Tarballs are available in
both `gzip` and `xz` formats. Checksums are signed with the same PGP
key as this announcement (0xC22E1090).

Notable changes in this release include:

- - Add rules for Postfix SASL login attempts
- - Add support for ISO 8601 timestamps (David Caldwell)
- - Add support for external commands run on firewall events (-e)
- - Blacklist file is now human-readable (Armando Miraglia)
- - Check tcpwrapper file permissions regardless of local umask
- - Detect additional pre-auth disconnects
- - Fix ipfw crash when loading an empty blacklist (Jin Choi)
- - Fix log parsing on days beginning with zero
- - Fix log polling on filesystems with many files (Johann H. Hauschild)
- - Fix matching for Cyrus IMAP login via SASL
- - Fix syslog format detection on hosts with undefined hostname
- - Match SSH login failures with "via" suffix
- - Remove broken kqueue(2) support
- - Tweak option names and help strings
- - Update SSH "Bad protocol" signature
- - Use case-insensitive "invalid user" signature

Please report any bugs, build failures, or OS-specific issues to the
mailing list or to the Bitbucket tracker [3].

Cheers,
Kevin Zheng
