Bug ID: 3654
Summary: "ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub" raises misleading
permission error
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 9.4p1
Hardware: 68k
OS: Mac OS X
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5
Component: ssh-add
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub reports:
----------->8----- cut here ------8<----------
❯ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@ WARNING: UNPROTECTED PRIVATE KEY FILE! @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Permissions 0644 for '/Users/clintonpowell/.ssh/id_rsa.pub' are too
open.
It is required that your private key files are NOT accessible by
others.
This private key will be ignored.
----------->8----- cut here ------8<----------
I expected it to say the file is invalid format or better yet, a
message about it needing a private key.
----------->8----- cut here ------8<----------
❯ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
Error loading key "/Users/christianholtje/.ssh/id_rsa.pub": invalid
format
