Keybase mac app shows weird error message #3341

Open isurugiu opened 5 years ago

isurugiu commented 5 years ago

I am trying to send an exploding message, formed of.. oh well, just a RSA private key but I am getting a weird error (see the screenshot please):

How to reproduce:

  1. Copy the content of a SSH RSA private key to the clipboard
  2. Launch Keybase and select your recipient
  3. Set the message to explode after 5 minutes
  4. Paste the clipboard content as the message
  5. Hit enter or the send button

Keybase for Mac: Version 3.0.0-20190205183613+6394d03e6c (3.0.0-20190205183613+6394d03e6c)

Thanks @maxtaco. Do you need logs for each phase or just the end of it?

@isurugiu thanks for the report.

So we have a new feature in chat for sending stellar payments and we have a bug where some text (especially base64-encoded text which I presume your key is encoded in) triggers it erroneously. We will fix it.

In the meantime, you can surround the text with backtick quotes or triple-backtick quotes and you should be able to send the message.
