            Bug ID: 45157
           Summary: X11 Forwarding for sshd on bastion*
           Product: Wikimedia Labs
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Infrastructure
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---

Some tools may need to use GUIs during deployment or configuration (in
particular, qmon)

While tunnelling can work around the lack of open X11 forwarding, doing so is
less secure since it doesn't cleanly handle xauth.

Security impact:  Minimal; only affects users whose clients have a $DISPLAY
set, and who turned on X11 forwarding.
