This bug was fixed in the package openssh - 1:6.5p1-1

---------------
openssh (1:6.5p1-1) unstable; urgency=medium


  * New upstream release (http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-6.5,
    LP: #1275068):
    - ssh(1): Add support for client-side hostname canonicalisation using a
      set of DNS suffixes and rules in ssh_config(5).  This allows
      unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified domain names
      to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in known_hosts or checking
      host certificate names (closes: #115286).
  * Switch to git; adjust Vcs-* fields.
  * Convert to git-dpm, and drop source package documentation associated
    with the old bzr/quilt patch handling workflow.
  * Drop ssh-vulnkey and the associated ssh/ssh-add/sshd integration code,
    leaving only basic configuration file compatibility, since it has been
    nearly six years since the original vulnerability and this code is not
    likely to be of much value any more (closes: #481853, #570651).  See
    https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2013/09/msg00240.html for my full
    reasoning.
  * Add OpenPGP signature checking configuration to watch file (thanks,
    Daniel Kahn Gillmor; closes: #732441).
  * Add the pam_keyinit session module, to create a new session keyring on
    login (closes: #734816).
  * Incorporate default path changes from shadow 1:4.0.18.1-8, removing
    /usr/bin/X11 (closes: #644521).
  * Generate ED25519 host keys on fresh installations.  Upgraders who wish
    to add such host keys should manually add 'HostKey
    /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key' to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and run
    'ssh-keygen -q -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key -N "" -t ed25519'.
  * Drop long-obsolete "SSH now uses protocol 2 by default" section from
    README.Debian.
  * Add systemd support (thanks, Sven Joachim; closes: #676830).
