Due to that hint with SciLinux I have fetched http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/7.8/SRPMS/vendor/openssh-7.4p1-21.el7.src.rpm
I can't see it but that is https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=991186 I can see follow on issues referring to it https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1161073 thou. # use default_ccache_name from /etc/krb5.conf (#991186) Patch902: openssh-6.3p1-krb5-use-default_ccache_name.patch The patch is not/no-more in https://git.centos.org/rpms/openssh/blob/c8/f/SOURCES But in https://git.centos.org/rpms/openssh/blob/c7/f/SOURCES/openssh-6.3p1-krb5-use-default_ccache_name.patch That is suspicious, there must be a reason it is gone right? Maybe it was hard to maintain or somewhat bad and they only could drop it on the major version change. In the v8 spec I find: # Improve ccache handling in openssh (#991186, #1199363, #1566494) # https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2775 Patch804: openssh-7.7p1-gssapi-new-unique.patch # Respect k5login_directory option in krk5.conf (#1328243) Patch805: openssh-7.2p2-k5login_directory.patch FYI navigate from here https://git.centos.org/rpms/openssh/blob/c8/f/SPECS/openssh.spec I'm not sure on this, but maybe carrying more of the RH sauce back to upstream might help. Definitely activity on the new or old upstream bug will be needed. Keep us in the loop here what happens. ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #991186 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=991186 ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #1161073 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1161073 ** Bug watch added: OpenSSH Portable Bugzilla #2775 https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2775 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1889548 Title: ssh using gssapi will enforce FILE: credentials cache Status in openssh package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hi, ssh connections from a client with the following in ssh_config... GSSAPIAuthentication yes GSSAPIDelegateCredentials yes ... to an ubuntu 20.04 machine result in KRB5CCNAME being set to 'FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_[uid]_[random]' despite the following in /etc/krb5.conf: [libdefaults] ... default_ccache_name = KEYRING:persistent:%{uid} This means that we cannot enforce a policy to use KEYRING ccaches across our systems. Authentications which go via the pam stack (e.g. login to the machine at the console or over ssh using a password) can be configured to use a KEYRING ccache, via libpam-krb5 settings in /etc/krb5.conf. The FILE: setting seems to be hard-coded in the openssh code (auth- krb5.c). It would be great if ssh(gssapi-with-mic) connections either (a) set KRB5CCNAME to the default_ccache_name value, if set in /etc/krb5.conf, or (b) didn't set KRB5CCNAME at all, so the system default is used.
