Enable ssh key verification for hosts

Open pronoiac opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

This is a proactive hardening measure; this is not a reaction to a current issue.

The resource currently doesn't verify the ssh key when it performs git clones - reference. I'd like to be able to enable ssh key verification. The optional parameters I see being useful:

  • enable ssh key verification
  • acceptable keys, whether in fingerprint form or the form found in ~/.ssh/known_hosts or the output of ssh-keyscan

I'd be open to hardcoding the Github keys, though I understand if that seems too much of a special case to you.

Are we trying to keep retro compatibility with that feature ? Do we want to ignore ssh fingerprint checking unless it was explicitly defined ?
