            Bug ID: 232143
           Summary: security/dropbear is not broken with cbc only needs
                    ctr to function
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org

             Flags: maintainer-feedback?(pkubaj at anongoth.pl)

This line in the Makefile is incorrect
CBC_BROKEN= ./session.h:77:3: error: unknown type name 'symmetric_CBC'

CBC functions correctly iff CTR is also selected.  

This is what I use and suggest
     CBC=on: Use CBC mode for ciphers (less secure) requires CTR
     CTR=on: Use CTR mode for ciphers (more secure)

Which I have running on FreeBSD11.1 and 11.2Stable i386 and amd64 servers.
