Package: openssh-server Version: 1:5.1p1-5ubuntu1 Severity: normal *** Please type your report below this line ***
When using OpenSSH's ForceCommand sshd_config directive to launch its internal-sftp, it is not possible to pass arguments to the latter. Example: This fails (sshd tries to invoke it as if it were an application): > ForceCommand internal-sftp -l INFO This works: > ForceCommand internal-sftp This bug has already been fixed in the upstream version of OpenSSH, see: https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1527 and http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.bin/ssh/session.c.diff?r1=1.241;r2=1.242;f=h Additionally a bug report for Ubuntu, which also suffers from this bug, has been filed and confirmed: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/362511 I consider this bug as of pretty low priority since it only matters for ppl who use ForceCommand + the internal-sftp + care about logging (transfer) actions made by clients. Additionally judging from this feature being relatively new to both Debian and Ubuntu there are probably very few users out there who will be affected after all. -- System Information: Excluded because not relevant regarding this bug -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
