The
compression
option is no longer a security risk,as the compression now only occurs after the user has been authenticated.
The reason why it used to be a security risk is because it was possible for compression
to happen before authenticating the user, this feature has been completely removed.
So, the only and recommended value of
compression
should beyes
. As per default.Source: openssh, release 7.4
