Description

Describe the problem:
Since the upgrade to 1.0.216 authentication to a router running OpenWRT 23.05.5 changed: Authentication with ssh-agent and password stopped working in auto mode. Other connections work as before.

Setup:

  • Mac OS Sequoia 15.1.1
  • Tabby 1.0.216
  • OpenWRT 23.05.5

Situation before:

  • Start ssh-agent.
  • Authentication in profile set to auto.
  • Connection succeeds.

To Reproduce:

  • Start ssh-agent.
  • Make sure authentication in profile is set to auto.
  • Connect the profile.
  • Asks for private key passphrase, even though a key is not configured in the profile.
  • Press escape.
  • Asks again for passphrase.
  • Press escape.
  • Connection fails.

Output:

 SSH  Connecting to wrt
 SSH  Host key fingerprint:
 SSH   rsa-sha2-256  REDACTED 
 SSH  Loading private key: id_rsa
 SSH   !  Failed to load private key id_rsa: Error: Passphrase prompt cancelled
