Generated Coder SSH config contains invalid/unknown user permissions

[ais-alexn]

Remote SSH connections failing on Windows because the SSH config file generated by the Coder extension has invalid file permissions.

Error

With latest vscode plugin Remote SSH fails with the following message:

Bad permissions. Try removing permissions for user:
UNKNOWN\UNKNOWN (S-1-5-21-354618XXXX-405751XXXX-XXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXX)
on file C:/Users/<username>/AppData/Roaming/coder.coder-remote/ssh/vscode--xxxxx.de.conf.

Bad owner or permissions on
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\coder.coder-remote\ssh\vscode--coder.zugang

Workaround

Downgrading the Coder VS Code extension to version 1.15.2 resolves the issue for me.

With version 1.15.2, I can use the Coder-generated SSH configuration directly from my normal SSH config file, and VS Code Remote SSH connects successfully.

Hey there, thanks for reporting this issue. Can you test the following solution that does some icacls fiddling on the generated Coder files?

Here is the VSIX: https://github.com/coder/vscode-coder/actions/runs/34954323143/artifacts/10390368678

1. Remove the current Coder extension
2. Reload the window
3. Execute the command "Extensions: Install from VSIX..." and pick the VSIX above
4. Try to connect to the failing workspace again

With the Extension installed via VSIX, i can connect successfully. Thanks for the support!

@ais-alexn That's great to hear! We should have a release soon with this fix included.

Just to double check, can you please test the following VSIX as we cannot reproduce this? https://github.com/coder/vscode-coder/actions/runs/35101509211/artifacts/10447479636
