[X2Go-Dev] Bug#1003: x2goclient sshd (for folder sharing) weak host key

Package: x2goclient

The sshd (sshd.exe) spawned by x2goclient for things like the folder sharing is creating a DSA HostKey.

Even if this sshd is only listening on localhost and is accessed through the ssh tunnel from the X2Go server this might lead to connections errors if the ssh_config of the server is configured to not allow connections to these weak (1024 bit) DSA HostKeys.

I would advice increasing this to at least 2048 bit RSA host keys or even elliptic curve host keys if available.

Best regards,
