Bug ID: 4044
Summary: max_pk_ok default not set when PubkeyAuthOptions is
specified
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 10.6p1
Hardware: Other
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P5
Component: sshd
Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
Reporter: zfridric at redhat.com

Bug fix
Documentation for max_pk_ok states the default is 6.
When I don't specify PubkeyAuthOptions at all, the max_pk_ok is
correctly set to the default value 6.
When I specify PubkeyAuthOptions without max_pk_ok, the max_pk_ok is
set to -1 instead, which based on the documentation I would not expect.
