Public bug reported: The ssh client fails with the message "Aborted (core dumped)" when setting the ConnectTimeout to 2147484 or higher.
lsb_release: Linux Mint 20 (but also tested this on latest ubuntu:20.04 docker container) openssh-client version: 1:8.2p1-4ubuntu0.1 I expected that either the connect timeout would be used correctly, or that it would fail with a proper error message saying the connect timeout can't be higher than 2147483. What happened: $ ssh -o "ConnectTimeout=2147484" localhost Aborted (core dumped) ** Affects: openssh (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1903516 Title: aborted (core dumped) when using ConnectTimeout > 2147483 Status in openssh package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The ssh client fails with the message "Aborted (core dumped)" when setting the ConnectTimeout to 2147484 or higher. lsb_release: Linux Mint 20 (but also tested this on latest ubuntu:20.04 docker container) openssh-client version: 1:8.2p1-4ubuntu0.1 I expected that either the connect timeout would be used correctly, or that it would fail with a proper error message saying the connect timeout can't be higher than 2147483.
