From: Louis Rannou Date: Thu, 3 Jul 2025 12:14:36 +0000 (+0200) Subject: openssh: limit read access to sshd_config X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=refs%2Fheads%2Fagodard%2Fmaster-next-success;p=thirdparty%2Fopenembedded%2Fopenembedded-core-contrib.git openssh: limit read access to sshd_config Enhance security by limiting read access for /etc/sshd_config to user root as it may reveal unsecure configurations. Reading access is limited in the install append as the default value 0644 is hardcoded in the openssh makefile and is not configurable. Therefore the permissions are modified in the install append.
