Mark Waite edited a comment on Bug JENKINS-27998

It is possible to fix that. Someone would need to add support for passphrase protected ssh keys to the git plugin authentication, or if it is implemented and not working, they would need to fix the bug. Pull requests with automated tests are welcomed.

Regarding your comment about it being a security flaw, I don't see how entering the passphrase into a web form in Jenkins is any more secure than using an ssh key with no passphrase. In both cases, there is enough information stored in Jenkins to use the credential, without any additional prompting.
