Summary: ssh-agent -k doesn't check $SHELL environment variable
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 3.1p1
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P3
Component: ssh-agent
AssignedTo: openssh-unix-dev at mindrot.org
ReportedBy: menscher+bug at uiuc.edu
CC: menscher+bug at uiuc.edu
Line 882 of ssh-agent.c reads:
if (ac == 0 && !c_flag && !k_flag && !s_flag && !d_flag) {
stuff to set c_flag=1 iff $SHELL=*csh
}
This means that someone running ssh-agent -k will have k_flag set and therefore
won't get the auto-shell determination, therefore leaving them with bash-style
commands.
I'm guessing the debug flag shouldn't be here either, so the correct line would
read:
if (ac == 0 && !c_flag && !s_flag) {
This was originally found to be broken on IRIX 6.5.15m, but looking at the
source made it obvious it was cross-platform.
