      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      A customer found that after updating curl to 7.61.1-34.el8 his SFTP transfers were failing in timeout, compared to 7.61.1-33.el8_9.5. This occurs with KbdInteractiveAuthentication method.

      It appears that latest 7.61.1-34.el8 code has a bug in patch 0053-curl-7.61.1-password-when-keyboard-interactive-fails.patch as shown while diff'ing patched source:

               sshc->authed = TRUE;
               infof(data, "completed keyboard interactive authentication\n");
      -        state(conn, SSH_AUTH_DONE);
      +        state(data, SSH_AUTH_DONE);
      

      Here above state() function is changing data variable instead of conn, which doesn't make sense.

      Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      curl-7.61.1-34.el8
