            Bug ID: 2894
           Summary: Set UpdateHostKeys for interactive sessions to 'ask'
                    (or consider defaulting to 'yes')
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 7.7p1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: ssh
          Assignee: unassigned-b...@mindrot.org
          Reporter: db+mind...@d1b.org

Set UpdateHostKeys for interactive invocations of ssh client to 'ask'
by default. 


( Related this request, I notice that Fabric,
http://docs.fabfile.org/en/1.14/usage/ssh.html, defaults to loading and
using the known_hosts file **but** reject_unknown_hosts defaults to
false (so hosts that have never "been seen" are allowed) this combined
with Fabric seemingly preferring an rsa host key while I had an ecdsa
host key  for $host would have allowed MITM attacks. )
