===== [[rsa_padding]] Requires padding on SSH-2 RSA signatures ===== ===== [[rsa_padding]] Requires padding on SSH-2 RSA signatures =====
-Versions below 3.3 of [[&openssh|OpenSSH]] and versions below 1.3.4d/1.3.5rc4 of ProFTPD/mod_sftp require SSH-2 RSA signatures to be padded with zero bytes to the same length as the %%RSA%% key modulus. The SSH-2 draft specification says that an unpadded signature MUST be accepted, so this is a bug. A typical symptom of this problem is that WinSCP mysteriously fails %%RSA%% authentication once in every few hundred attempts, and falls back to passwords. In session log file you will typically see this record:+Versions below 3.3 of [[&openssh|OpenSSH]] and versions below 1.3.4d/1.3.5rc4 of ProFTPD/mod_sftp require SSH-2 RSA signatures to be padded with zero bytes to the same length as the %%RSA%% key modulus.
