This is using WSL or what ssh client?

The issue is handled upstream by https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/pull/452 and we're carrying the patches for ubuntu 24.04 and prepared a backport for 22.04 and 20.04.

For the others, we won't probably show the qr code at all, but we need to handle the case in the server, so it will take a while too.

this is the native ssh client in Windows11

C:\Users\MyUser>ssh -V
OpenSSH_for_Windows_8.6p1, LibreSSL 3.4.3

I confirm the issue with the SSH client of Windows 11

For the moment, I'd recommend to use an alternative client that supports UTF-8 such as Putty

heitbaum commented 2 weeks ago

same as #500

bill-taut commented 2 weeks ago

It would be great if the login code were provided as text so it could be simply typed into the devicelogin URL without having to scan the QR code. This would also be a workaround for the UTF-8 not rendering correctly (which is a problem also on MacOS.

jibel commented 1 week ago

We do not have a good way to handle this at the moment because the client is not exposed to PAM by the server and many clients are affected. So we're going to not display QR code for SSH.
