Ben Humphreys updated SSHD-1216:
--------------------------------
Description:
In the recently released OpenSSH 8.8 for "ssh-rsa" keys the public key
signature algorithm that depends on SHA-1 has been disabled by default:
{quote}This release disables RSA signatures using the SHA-1 hash algorithm 2by
default. This change has been made as the SHA-1 hash algorithm is
3cryptographically broken, and it is possible to create chosen-prefix 4hash
collisions for <USD$50K [1]
{quote}
As a result OpenSSH 8.8 clients are unable to authenticate with Mina SSHD
servers with RSA based keys (it is however possible to reenable ssh-rsa).
OpenSSH since 7.2 does however support RFC 8332 RSA/SHA-256/512 signatures.
It appears Mina SSHD partly implements support for RFC 8332, indeed the client
code appears to support it (see SSHD-1141). However the server appears to lack
full support because it doesn't full implement the"server-sig-algs" extension.
The basic framework for supporting this seems to be present, specifically
{{AbstractKexFactoryManager.setKexExtensionHandler()}} could perhaps permit
such a "server-sig-algs" extension.
