Package: openssh-key-parser3.8
openssh_key_parserThe purpose of this repo (cloned fromhttps://github.com/scottcwang/openssh_key_parser)
is to get Python 3.8 running version of openssh_key_parser library,
with all functionality being the same.
In addition, I've fixed source code to make it really pass all unit tests and static checks.
(Run top-level pytest after installing everything from requirements-dev.txt)Original README follows below:Please don't use versions 0.0.1 - 0.0.5, which are affected byCVE-2022-31124,
a High severity vulnerability. Upgrade to at least version 0.0.6.This repository providesopenssh_key, a Python package providing utilities to
parse and pack OpenSSH private and public key files.It supports parsing and packing keys of all types currently supported by
OpenSSH:ssh-rsassh-ed25519ssh-dssecdsa-sha2-{nistp256,nistp384,nistp521}sk-{ed25519,ecdsa-sha2-nistp256}@openssh.comFIDO/U2F security keys*-cert-v01@openssh.comcertificatesIt can optionally encrypt and decrypt private keys using thebcryptkey
derivation function and any cipher currently supported by OpenSSH:aes{128,192,256}-{ctr,cbc}aes{128,256}-gcm@openssh.comchacha20-poly1305@openssh.com3des-cbcIt is compliant with
theOpenSSH private key vendor extension,
in particular supporting multiple keys in a private key file.Keys can be converted to corresponding classes provided by:cryptographypynaclCheck out thedocumentation.ExampleSee what is in an OpenSSH key file$ ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -N secret_passphrase -C my_comment -f test_id_ed25519
Generating public/private ed25519 key pair.
Your identification has been saved in test_id_ed25519.
Your public key has been saved in test_id_ed25519.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
SHA256:NbhmjL1RfNkYWOb63Rq2ugIzsmr9zLoSsn5ZUPa3Qic my_comment
The key's randomart image is:
