Key passphrase authentication broken

Open Kai-Denzel-Jane opened this issue 1 month ago • 1 comments

Describe the problem: When connecting to a SSH Profile authenticating with a valid public / private key pair and correct passphrase, when I am prompted to enter key passphrase upon pasting in my passphrase it's just as if it is rejected, the prompt to enter a passphrase just comes back until you exit said prompt.

I can validate with 100% certainty this is the correct key and passphrase because connection with all the same credential using SSH inside a shell / command line authenticates the key correctly instantly.

To Reproduce:

  1. Add a valid private key as the authentication for a SSH profile
  2. Connect to the profile
  3. Enter the correct passphrase for they key when prompted
  4. Passphrase is repeatedly rejected and loops asking for the passphrase until it exits

It seems specifically specifying the OpenSSH ssh-agent pipe in the settings resolves this issue, somehow.

Might need to conduct further testing to confirm.
