Description Jimmy.Jazz 2024-07-14 13:59:08 UTC

sshd -i execve call fails without an absolute path despite 'server' cmd for the service. openssh check and refuse a relative path when executing the server.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.# sshd -i                                                              
sshd requires execution with an absolute path
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
fails
