Ian Wienand updated SSHD-1118:
------------------------------
    Description: 
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!
