[Bug 1446448] Re: ssh-agent terminates

 

Aight, thanks Seth for the execsnoop link, excellent stuff to have in
your tool-box.  I just re-ran my test-case, and this is the new strace
output, with the correlating execsnoop snippet.

Looks like the culprit is sshd?

Title:
  ssh-agent terminates

Status in openssh package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have set-up password less ssh connectivity for my workstation.  ssh-
  agent gets started via keychain when fluxbox boots.

  When I use ssh to connect to a server, and then use scp to shuffle a
  file from that server to my workstation the ssh-agent on my
  workstation dies after the file was transferred.

  This has started happening after the upgrade  from 12.04 to 14.04.

  I have wrapped strace into the fluxbox startup to keep an eye on ssh-
  agent (I initially didn't see a pattern to the sudden death), here's
  an example of the breakdown post transfer.

  select(4, [3], [], NULL, NULL)          = 1 (in [3])
  accept(3, {sa_family=AF_LOCAL, NULL}, [2]) = 4
  getsockopt(4, SOL_SOCKET, SO_PEERCRED, {pid=21130, uid=1000, gid=1000}, [12]) = 0
  getuid()                                = 1000
  fcntl(4, F_GETFL)                       = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR)
  fcntl(4, F_SETFL, O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK)    = 0
  select(5, [3 4], [], NULL, NULL)        = 1 (in [4])
  read(4, "\0\0\0\1\v", 1024)             = 5
  select(5, [3 4], [4], NULL, NULL)       = 1 (out [4])
  write(4, "\0\0\1<\f\0\0\0\1\0\0\1\27\0\0\0\7ssh-rsa\0\0\0\3\1\0\1\0"..., 320) = 320
  select(5, [3 4], [], NULL, NULL)        = 1 (in [4])
  read(4, "", 1024)                       = 0
  close(4)                                = 0
  select(4, [3], [], NULL, NULL)          = 1 (in [3])
  accept(3, {sa_family=AF_LOCAL, NULL}, [2]) = 4
  getsockopt(4, SOL_SOCKET, SO_PEERCRED, {pid=21284, uid=1000, gid=1000}, [12]) = 0
  getuid()                                = 1000
  fcntl(4, F_GETFL)                       = 0x2 (flags O_RDWR)

  close(4)                                = 0
  select(4, [3], [], NULL, NULL)          = ? ERESTARTNOHAND (To be restarted if no handler)

  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
  Release:        14.04

  
  2) apt-cache policy openssh-client
  openssh-client:

  3) I expect ssh-agent to carry on running as it did in previous
  releases.

  4) It dies when connecting back from a machine I ssh into to my
  workstation.
