#38017 closed defect (duplicate)

openssh @6.1p1 can't open cryptographic blobs

Reported by: elventear (Pepe Barbe) Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.1.3
Keywords: Cc:
Port: openssh

Description

I have been running ssh from the MacPorts openssh port for a while for regular usage. I upgraded the outdated ports recently and there was an openssh upgrade. After the upgrade ssh does not work anymore. When I try to connect to a remote site I get the error:

buffer_get_bignum2_ret: BN_bin2bn failed
key_from_blob: can't read ecdsa key point
key_read: key_from_blob SOMEBASE64ENCODEDKEY failed

Perhaps this was caused by the openssl 1.0.1d update; see #38015.

Yes, this is exactly what I saw after ugrading openssl.

For the record, I ended up nuking my MacPorts installation and reinstalling, and OpenSSH worked out of the box.

For the record, again, I after reinstalling everything, it was able to trigger the issue again. I think it is related to a universal build of openssl. It was working fine when openssl wasn't universal.

For the final record, downgrading openssl fixed the issue.
