Bug ID: 3195
Summary: ssh-keygen unable to convert ED25519 public keys
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 8.2p1
Hardware: amd64
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5
Component: ssh-keygen
Assignee: unassigned-bugs@mindrot.org
Reporter: marcoshalano@gmail.com
I generate a ED25519 key using OpenSSL:
openssl genpkey -algorithm ED25519 -out key_ed25519.pem
After that I extracted the public key:
openssl pkey -in key_ed25519.pem -pubout -out public_ed25519.pem
And then I try to get the SSH public key to put on authorized_keys:
ssh-keygen -i -m PKCS8 -f public_ed25519.pem
The error was:
do_convert_from_pkcs8: unsupported pubkey type 1087
So I think ssh-keygen can't convert a ED25519 public key. The expected
result was something like:
ssh-ed25519 AAAA...
I found a tool called sshpk (https://www.npmjs.com/package/sshpk) which
converts correctly:
sshpk-conv public_ed25519.pem -t ssh
The output is what I should expect.
