Bug #18253: $ecdsakey fact does not represent specific key type
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/18253
Author: Michael Henry
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assignee:
Category: ssh
Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 3.0.1
Keywords: ssh
ecdsa
ecdsakey
ecdsa-sha2-nistp256
ecdsa-sha2-nistp384
ecdsa-sha2-nistp521
Branch:
There are 5 types of SSH keys: rsa, dsa, ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,
ecdsa-sha2-nistp384, and ecdsa-sha2-nistp521
So puppet already accounts for the three different ecdsa keytypes, but puts
them into one fact $ecdsakey
So when doing something like this:
@@sshkey { "${::fqdn}_ecdsa":
host_aliases => $host_aliases,
type => ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,
key => $::sshecdsakey,
}
It puts the wrong keytype in known_hosts if the key is 384 or 512 bits.
Suggest adding a fact for $ecdsatype or similar when the key is detected.
(RSA and DSA keys can be various sizes and they will always be RSA and DSA...
but if you change the size of the ecdsa key size it changes they keytype.
Don't ask me why.)
