[Bug 1286037] [NEW] Incorrect handling of spaces in SSH public key comments

 

Public bug reported:

If an injected SSH key contains spaces in the comments field, cloud-init
fails to disable the key and root logins are thus not prevented. This
only affects older versions, I believe prior to 0.7.2. But a lot of
current cloud images (12.10 and older) are affected.

** Affects: cloud-init
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
