             Summary: DefaultSftpClient v4 'STAT' flags need to be initialized to 0xFFFF instead of 0
                 Key: SSHD-423
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-423
             Project: MINA SSHD
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0, 0.14.0
            Reporter: Goldstein Lyor
            Priority: Minor


According to the [Protocol draft - section 6.8 |https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-03#section-6.8]:
{panel}
The flags field specify the attribute flags in which the client has  particular interest.
{panel}
The initialization to "0" basically says "not interested in anything", whereas I believe the _DefaultSftpClient_ actually means to say "give me all the attributes you can" - especially for the _'stat'_ command whose very essence is querying about _Attributes_. The reason I marked this bug as _minor_ is because this feature is not yet supported, and the *current* code returns all the available attributes. However, if / when support for this feature will be added, a bug will occur when the _DefaultSftpClient_ is used because of the initialization to "0".
