Darren Tucker <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #1 from Darren Tucker <[email protected]> --- It uses the directory returned by the system's getpwnam(3) for the real userid of the ssh process. Thus, if you are running it as root then it always looks in root's home directory. https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/blob/master/ssh.c#L545 It's behaved like this for a long time. I suspect its original intent was to prevent $HOME games in the case where the ssh binary was setuid, which was supported (although very infrequently actually used that way) up until recently. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug.
