SSH2 Private key format #11

@hannob

Description

@hannob

There appears to be a private key format starting with

---- BEGIN SSH2 PRIVATE KEY ----

Note that this is not RFC 4716, which only defines a similar public key format.

Looking at the content, it appears it is simply a commend line followed by a "traditional" base64-encoded RSA (PKCS #1) or DSA key.
