Bug ID: 3318
Summary: Read-only mode broken by limits at openssh.com extension
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 8.6p1
Hardware: Other
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P5
Component: sftp-server
Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
Reporter: marcan at marcan.st
limits at openssh.com is marked as does_write=1, which causes the client
to break when the request is denied, printing a cryptic error message.
$ sftp <server...>
Expected SSH2_FXP_EXTENDED_REPLY(201) packet, got 101
It's really hard to get logs out of the server in internal-chroot mode,
but strace shows:
[pid 133138] write(2, "Refusing limits request in read-only mode\r\n",
43) = 43
I don't see why the extension should be restricted in read-only mode.
The client should probably also not just break and abort when this
happens.
