[PATCH] ssh signing: return an error when signature cannot be read

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

If the signature file cannot be read we print an error message but do
not return an error to the caller. In practice it seems unlikely that
the file would be unreadable if the call to ssh-keygen succeeds. If we
cannot read the file it may be missing so ignore any errors from
unlink() when we try to remove it.

    ssh signing: return an error when signature cannot be read
    
    This patch is based on maint. In the longer term the code could be
    simplified by using pipes rather than tempfiles as we do for gpg.
    ssh-keygen has supported reading the data to be signed from stdin and
    writing the signature to stdout since it introduced signing.
