Adds support for using OpenSSH Certificates based on OpenSSH Specs using the existing
PublicKey
authentication.Approach:
Adds a new
authenticate_openssh_cert()
method, similar toauthenticate_publickey()
for passing certificate and the private key for authentication and signature generation. Internally a newAuthMethod::OpenSSHCertificate
is added to handle certificate specific authentication flow.Changes include -
examples/client_exec_interactive.rs
with an optional argument to pass the openssh certificate path.ssh-key
andssh-encoding
are added fromRustCrypto/SSH
for parsing, encoding.The server-side support for this might be tricky, I am yet to explore.
