Hi, Have you already reported this directly upstream (bugzilla.mindrot.org)? I'd expect that to be the best approach here, since the upstream master branch exhibits the same problem, and especially since the changes were in response to your security vulnerability report. We can of course cherry-pick regression fixes that have landed upstream. Note that it was actually https://anongit.mindrot.org/openssh.git/commit/?id=6010c0303a422a9c5fa8860c061bf7105eb7f8b2 that broke this. Thanks, -- Colin Watson [[email protected]]
