Description
Would it make sense to have the -setup
argument default to using the cached
touch policy instead of the always
policy?
Cached: a touch is not needed if the YubiKey had been touched in the last 15 seconds, otherwise a touch is needed
Only suggesting as I ended up in this situation
- Generated a key using
yubikey-agent
- Deployed it to a bunch of servers
- Discovered that when doing a set of
git
actions that connect to GitHub 3 or 4 times, thealways
touch policy that the key was generated with requires touching the yubikey 4 times in a row to make 4 connections
It's very possible though that choosing the always
touch policy is intentional and there's a good security story for this choice in which case feel free to disregard my suggestion.
