Well, I don’t know whether it’s necessary to reproduce the exact message with all the data it contains. As I said, I think users can and will investigate the exact root of the problem with tools outside of qemu. (Such as openssh’s ssh itself.) >> (Hmm, I don’t know if this is a response to my “But the specification >> requires a warning!!1!”, but if so, I was actually not referring to more >> information but to this: > > You mentioned this few times: can you please point me to this bit? > I read few RFCs related to ssh, and I did not find this information... For example: http://api.libssh.org/master/group__libssh__session.html#gacbc5d04fe66beee863a0c61a93fdf765 > SSH_KNOWN_HOSTS_CHANGED: The server key has changed.

All it requires is “to warn the user about a possible attack”. That can be as simple as appending “This may be due to a man-in-the-middle attack” to the error message. >> $ ssh 192.168.0.12 >> @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ >> @ WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! @ >> @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ >> IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY! >> Someone could be eavesdropping on you right now (man-in-the-middle attack)! >> It is also possible that a host key has just been changed. >> >> >> I mean, I was also only half-serious.

God forbid no. I was just making an example of “Here is a warning about a possible attack”. I fully agree with Dan (and probably you) that this is completely unsuitable to qemu’s interface.

Again, I’m only being half-serious. I tried to bring that point across every time I mention this thing. If you just say “Let’s leave it as it is, I don’t see any benefit”, sure, OK, I’ll accept that. But so far you didn’t say that, so I kept pestering on. I would have never mentioned this topic if I hadn’t read the specification while reviewing your patch last year and noticed that it explicitly states “You HAVE to warn the user about a possible attack.” I never said “Please emit the exact message openssh’s ssh” emits. Well, I never meant to say that. Maybe I accidentally did. Sorry again. My whole point is: The specification requires libssh users to emit *some* warning. If we want to adhere to the specification, we have to do that. Just one sentence is sufficient. If we don’t want to adhere to the specification, sure, let’s go. But you’ll have to explicitly say that. I’m not the patch author, I’m but a humble reviewer, and as such I’ll point out all flaws I see. You have to give justifications, not me.
