Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated sshpass packages that fix several bugs and add various enhancements are now available.
Description
This package provides a tool for non-interactively performing password authentication with "interactive keyboard password authentication" of SSH. Most users should use the more secure public key authentication of SSH instead.
Changes to the sshpass component:
- With this update, the sshpass package has been upgraded to version 1.06. This upgrade adds -P for overriding the password prompt, adds -v for verbose logging of the prompt detection prompt, allows packagers and compilers to change the default password prompt, and when -V is used the default password prompt will also be printed. (BZ#1494117)
