Bug ID: 444862 Summary: ksshaskpass can not parse "The authenticity of host can't be established." message from OpenSSH Product: ksshaskpass Version: 5.23.2 Platform: Archlinux Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: minor Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: jpwhit...@kde.org Reporter: me+kdeb...@nogweii.net Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Connecting to a remote host that is not already known produces a prompt sent to the askpass program that ksshaskpass does not recognize. It's not unusable, I can type "yes" or "no" into the text field, but it does produce a slightly annoying line of text in the console: ksshaskpass: Unable to parse phrase "The authenticity of host 'github.com (140.82.113.3)' can't be established.\nRSA key fingerprint is SHA256:nThbg6kXUpJWGl7E1IGOCspRomTxdCARLviKw6E5SY8.\nThis key is not known by any other names\nAre you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])? " STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Have an empty ~/.ssh/known_hosts 2. export SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/bin/ksshaskpass SSH_ASKPASS_REQUIRE=prefer 3. ssh g...@github.com OBSERVED RESULT The line of text is produced EXPECTED RESULT ksshaskpass knows how to handle this question/prompt from OpenSSH SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux on kernel version 5.14.15-arch-1 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.87.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 OpenSSH Version: OpenSSH_8.8p1, OpenSSL 1.1.1l 24 Aug 2021 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
