             Summary: Unable to connect with Fedora 33 which has dropped ssh-rsa from PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes
                 Key: SSHD-1118
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-1118
             Project: MINA SSHD
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.4.0
            Reporter: Ian Wienand


This problem was noted with Gerrit using a 2.4.0 mina sshd server [1] after a recent upgrade.  Some users using Fedora 33 started being not able to log in.

 

It turns out that Fedora >=33 has dropped rsa-ssh from it's default PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes in /etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/openssh.config.  You either have to modify your policy globally to "legacy" with "update-crypto-policies" or manually set PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes=ssh-rsa for failing servers.

 

I understand that server-sig-algs support isn't fully implemented in mina sshd as yet, so the client will not be seeing the negotiation list.--

 

However, it seems rsa-sha2-256/512 are supported?  It seems like forcing this with {{ssh oPubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes=rsa-sha2-512}} should work, but it does not (see related gerrit bug)?

 

I can provide ssh connect logs, etc. if it will help; at this point I think it's mostly about understanding Fedora's change and any mina limitations so we can find the best solution for users.  Although Fedora 33 users are obviously a small minority now, it probably flags something other distros will take up sooner or later.

 

Thanks!
