There was a problem hiding this comment.
We should really refactor this to keyword arguments, but I wanted to stay compatible.
EL 8.2 introduced support for specifying key-algorithm in omshell[1] and Debian stable also supports this. If unspecified, it defaults to the insecure HMAC-MD5. Especially on FIPS (where MD5 is forbidden) this is problematic. [1]: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2021:1623
