similar to: [PATCH] U2F support in OpenSSH

At this point it should be obvious, but let me state that I don?t have motivation/time to spend on this right now, given that upstream shows 0 interest in this at all :(. Hence, any help on this is welcome.

Hey, Recently, the FIDO alliance announced U2F [1], and Google announced that it supports U2F tokens (?security keys?) for Google accounts [2]. As the spec is not a very short read, I gave a presentation last week about U2F which may be a good quick introduction to the details [3]. For the rest of this mail, I?ll assume that you read either my presentation or the spec, but feel free to post any

I've had a patch on the bugzilla for a while related to U2F with support for a few additional settings such as providing a path to a specific key to use instead of the first one found and setting if user presence is required when using the key. Is there any objection to folding those parts in if appropriate? Joseph, to offer comment on NIST P-256. There was originally quite a limited subset

In the u2f protocol, my understanding is in the normal case, the web browser seeds the keypair process with the hostname of the remote server. In the case of ssh, the hostname is probably not what I would want to do. But the u2f protocol seems to have a way to handle this. It just needs to be exposed to the user. The content of the private keyfile in ssh is generated somehow. Where is that done?

How does a u2f website then authenticate the same user, with the same keyfob, on a different machine? If that actually works, then we should be able to use the same mechanism. Maybe it doesn't, and some people are going to be locked out of their account when their machine fails and they have to go to another one. portability was one of the selling points of u2f though I thought. Maybe I'll

That sounds like the application param is still used as part of the process though? Would allowing the user to specify the application work in the Solokey case? What is stored in the private keyfile? The documentation says no private key is stored there. So is it just information used to reseed the public/private key? Thanks, Kevin ________________________________________ From: openssh-unix-dev

>From my understanding, somehow a website talking through the web browser is able to get the same keypair used no matter which computer the keyfob is plugged into. I'm wondering if we can use the same mechanism there. If application is part of the process, maybe allowing the application to be specified by the user rather then being randomly generated by openssh would be enough? Thanks,

Please see the two attached files for the patch. This is great - I'm looking forward to it! :) I've implemented U2F into another (C-based) application these

Hello, I forgot to mention one other issue in my previous e-mail about the ssh-agent documentation for U2F keys. Right now, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openssh/openssh-portable/master/PROTOCOL.u2f <https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openssh/openssh-portable/master/PROTOCOL.u2f> has the following text: > ssh-agent requires a protocol extension to support U2F keys. At > present the

Hi, As of this morning, OpenSSH now has experimental U2F/FIDO support, with U2F being added as a new key type "sk-ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 at openssh.com" or "ecdsa-sk" for short (the "sk" stands for "security key"). If you're not familiar with U2F, this is an open standard for making inexpensive hardware security tokens. These are easily the cheapest way

I spent some time today implementing support for loading U2F keys into the SSH agent from my AsyncSSH library. I got it working, but along the way I ran into a few issues I wanted to report: First, it looks like the value of SSH_AGENT_CONSTRAIN_EXTENSION has changed from the value 3 defined at https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-miller-ssh-agent-02

My website has fallen off the web. This is a good time for someone else to take over the code for x11-ssh-askpass, as I've not done anything with it for years. I have the original code somewhere if needed, but I think Debian has mirrored it for some time. -- jim knoble > On Nov 18, 2019, at 01:49, Jakub Jelen <jjelen at redhat.com> wrote: > >> On Mon, 2019-11-18 at 16:19

Hi Damien, Thanks for working on security key support, this is a really nice feature to have in openssh. My non-FIDO2 security key (YubiKey NEO) doesn't work with the latest changes to openssh

Hi, When we added U2F support, we also extended the interface used by ssh and ssh-agent to invoke the $SSH_ASKPASS program. Originally, the askpass prompt was used to obtain passphrases for ssh in cases where it was not possible to read them from the terminal. Later it was (ab)used for showing confirmation prompts for each use of any key that was added to the agent using "ssh-add -c".

When using openssh with a u2f key, you generate a key via: ssh-keygen -t ecdsa-sk Each time you run it, it gives a different key pair. (Randomly seeming). A differently generated key pair is not valid with the first's public key. All good so far, but you run into a problem if: You generate a keypair (A). You register your public key for (A) on a bunch of ssh servers. You take
