Subject: [PATCH backup 0/2] fix #7054: client: remove trailing newlines from credentials
Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2026 12:17:09 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260220111951.280082-1-m.sandoval@proxmox.com> (raw)

See the first commit for more details.

This was tested with proxmox-backup-client making a login/backup using different
credentials with and without newlines. The commands were similar to the
systemd-run commands at the Backup Client Usage docs.

I did not find a way to create the keyfile with newlines in its password using
proxmox-backup-client since it reads from the tty stdin, but surely it could be
created manually. Perhaps it is safe-ish to also remove trailing control
characters from the encryption password but this seems a safer approach for now.
