            Bug ID: 3346
           Summary: Provide a system-wide kill switch for SCP protocol
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 8.7p1
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: scp
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: dbelyavs at redhat.com

As we use SFTP by default, and SCP is considered insecure, we may want
to disable it totally. As scp utility doesn't use the system-wide
config, we suggest implementing it via the kill switch file.

https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/pull/271 is the PR to add
this feature.
