by application closing its stdin (i.e. STDIN_FILENO) prior to
calling readpassphrase WITHOUT setting RPP_STDIN. What happens
then is that the readpassphrase would open /dev/tty, and since
file descriptors are reused, the call would return first unused
fd, which is 0 which is also STDIN_FILENO. Then due to the usage
of "input != STDIN_FILENO" in the code to do its logic, that
would result in noecho flags not set on that file descriptor,
which was original issue I've been trying to fix.
In addition to that, the readpassphrase() would leak file
descriptor on its way out, so fix that one as well.
This problem can be tested with:
$ ssh-add - < /tmp/myprivate.key
The password will not be hidden as it should and ktrace will
show:
53326 ssh-add CALL open(0x80142443c,0x100002<O_RDWR|O_CLOEXEC>,<unused>0x165f030)
53326 ssh-add NAMI "/dev/tty"
53326 ssh-add RET open 0
53326 ssh-add CALL sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK,0x802eb1324,0x7fffffffd5e0)
53326 ssh-add RET sigprocmask 0
53326 ssh-add CALL sigaction(SIGALRM,0x7fffffffd630,0x7fffffffd610)
Instead of:
57690 ssh-add CALL open(0x80142443c,0x100002<O_RDWR|O_CLOEXEC>,<unused>0x165f030)
57690 ssh-add NAMI "/dev/tty"
57690 ssh-add RET open 4
57690 ssh-add CALL ioctl(0x4,TIOCGETA,0x7fffffffd860)
57690 ssh-add RET ioctl 0
57690 ssh-add CALL ioctl(0x4,TIOCSETAF,0x7fffffffd680)
57690 ssh-add RET ioctl 0
57690 ssh-add CALL sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK,0x802eb1324,0x7fffffffd620)
57690 ssh-add RET sigprocmask 0
57690 ssh-add CALL sigaction(SIGALRM,0x7fffffffd670,0x7fffffffd650)
For the case when the key is read from the file.
Technically this can also be workaround'ed at the application side
by not closing the STDIN_FILENO in the first place, but readpassphrase(3)
doesn't need to make any assumptions about that. Plus the file descriptor
leak confirms that this is an oversight, rather than a deliberate behaviour.
