[Bug 1575961] [NEW] OpenSSH Client Certificate Auth Regression

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Ubuntu Foundations Team Bug Bot (crichton):

OpenSSH Client Certificates worked in Ubuntu 15.10 and 14.04 LTS -- but
not 16.04.

OpenSSH 7.2.p2 includes a bug in how it loads keys & certificates, and
basically will never find the correct private key for an OpenSSH Client
Certificate.

This is the upstream bug:

https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2550

Fix was committed on March 14:

https://github.com/openssh/openssh-
portable/commit/c38905ba391434834da86abfc988a2b8b9b62477

I've tested with the attached patch, and it allows Client Certificate
auth to work at all.
