Re: [Bug 965836] Re: `ssh-add -x` does not prevent key use

 

Yup, that's the trouble. Good sleuthing. Knowing that (and, indeed,
`ssh-add -X` reports success regardless of password entered), I can
start a real ssh-agent anywhere I want agent locking instead of gui
integration.

Thanks!

Title:
  `ssh-add -x` does not prevent key use

Status in openssh package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I add my key:

  $ ssh-add -t $((60*60*2)) /media/secret/secret/id_dsa

  After which I physically remove the USB stick with that key and I lock
  my agent:

  $ ssh-add -x
  Enter lock password: 
  Again: 
  Agent locked.

  Then I ssh someplace I shouldn't be able to get to:

  Notably, it says, "debug1: Offering DSA public key:

  $ ls -l /home/martin/.ssh/id_dsa
  ls: cannot access /home/martin/.ssh/id_dsa: No such file or directory

  Also, -l shows a key when it should show none:
