Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
1. Introduction
This protocol provides secure file transfer (and more generally file
system access) functionality over a reliable data stream, such as a
channel in the SSH2 protocol [5].
This protocol is designed so that it could be used to implement a
secure remote file system service, as well as a secure file transfer
service.
This protocol assumes that it runs over a secure channel, and that
the server has already authenticated the user at the client end, and
that the identity of the client user is externally available to the
server implementation.
In general, this protocol follows a simple request-response model.
Each request and response contains a sequence number and multiple
requests may be pending simultaneously. There are a relatively large
number of different request messages, but a small number of possible
response messages. Each request has one or more response messages
that may be returned in result (e.g., a read either returns data or
reports error status).
The packet format descriptions in this specification follow the
notation presented in the secsh architecture draft. [5]
Even though this protocol is described in the context of the SSH2
protocol, this protocol is general and independent of the rest of the
SSH2 protocol suite. It could be used in a number of different
applications, such as secure file transfer over TLS RFC 2246 [1] and
transfer of management information in VPN applications.

2. Use with the SSH Connection Protocol
When used with the SSH2 Protocol suite, this protocol is intended to
be used from the SSH Connection Protocol [7] as a subsystem, as
described in section ``Starting a Shell or a Command''. The
subsystem name used with this protocol is "sftp".
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
3. General Packet Format
All packets transmitted over the secure connection are of the
following format:
uint32 length
byte type
byte[length - 1] data payload
That is, they are just data preceded by 32-bit length and 8-bit type
fields. The `length' is the length of the data area, and does not
include the `length' field itself. The format and interpretation of
the data area depends on the packet type.
All packet descriptions below only specify the packet type and the
data that goes into the data field. Thus, they should be prefixed by
the `length' and `type' fields.
The maximum size of a packet is in practice determined by the client
(the maximum size of read or write requests that it sends, plus a few
bytes of packet overhead). All servers SHOULD support packets of at
least 34000 bytes (where the packet size refers to the full length,
including the header above). This should allow for reads and writes
of at most 32768 bytes.
There is no limit on the number of outstanding (non-acknowledged)
requests that the client may send to the server. In practice this is
limited by the buffering available on the data stream and the queuing
performed by the server. If the server's queues are full, it should
not read any more data from the stream, and flow control will prevent
the client from sending more requests. Note, however, that while
there is no restriction on the protocol level, the client's API may
provide a limit in order to prevent infinite queuing of outgoing
requests at the client.
The following values are defined for packet types.

version number (see Section ``Protocol Initialization'') is
incremented, and their use MUST be negotiated using the version
number. However, the SSH_FXP_EXTENDED and SSH_FXP_EXTENDED_REPLY
packets can be used to implement vendor-specific extensions. See
Section ``Vendor-Specific-Extensions'' for more details.
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
4. Protocol Initialization
When the file transfer protocol starts, the client first sends a
SSH_FXP_INIT (including its version number) packet to the server.
The server responds with a SSH_FXP_VERSION packet, supplying the
lowest of its own and the client's version number. Both parties
should from then on adhere to particular version of the protocol.
The version number of the protocol specified in this document is 4.
The version number should be incremented for each incompatible
revision of this protocol.
4.1 Client Initialization
The SSH_FXP_INIT packet (from client to server) has the following
data:
uint32 version
Version 3 of this protocol allowed clients to include extensions in
the SSH_FXP_INIT packet; however, this can cause interoperability
problems with version 1 and version 2 servers because the client must
send this packet before knowing the servers version.
In this version of the protocol, clients MUST use the
SSH_FXP_EXTENDED packet to send extensions to the server after
version exchange has completed. Clients MUST NOT include extensions
in the version packet. This will prevent interoperability problems
with older servers
4.2 Server Initialization
The SSH_FXP_VERSION packet (from server to client) has the following
data:
uint32 version
<extension data>
'version' is the lower of the protocol version supported by the
server and the version number received from the client.
The extension data may be empty, or may be a sequence of
string extension_name
string extension_data
pairs (both strings MUST always be present if one is, but the
`extension_data' string may be of zero length). If present, these
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
strings indicate extensions to the baseline protocol. The
`extension_name' field(s) identify the name of the extension. The
name should be of the form "name@domain", where the domain is the DNS
domain name of the organization defining the extension. Additional
names that are not of this format may be defined later by the IETF.
Implementations MUST silently ignore any extensions whose name they
do not recognize.
4.3 Determining Server Newline Convention
In order to correctly process text files in a cross platform
compatible way, the newline convention must be converted from that of
the server to that of the client, or, during an upload, from that of
the client to that of the server.
Versions 3 and prior of this protocol made no provisions for
processing text files. Many clients implemented some sort of
conversion algorithm, but without either a 'canonical' on the wire
format or knowledge of the servers newline convention, correct
conversion was not always possible.
Starting with Version 4, the SSH_FXF_TEXT file open flag (Section
6.3) makes it possible to request that the server translate a file to
a 'canonical' on the wire format. This format uses \r\n as the line
separator.
Servers for systems using multiple newline characters (for example,
Mac OS X or VMS) or systems using counted records, MUST translate to
the canonical form.
However, to ease the burden of implementation on servers that use a
single, simple separator sequence, the following extension allows the
canonical format to be changed.
string "newline"
string new-canonical-separator (usually "\r" or "\n" or "\r\n")
All clients MUST support this extension.
When processing text files, clients SHOULD NOT translate any
character or sequence that is not an exact match of the servers
newline separator.
In particular, if the newline sequence being used is the canonical
"\r\n" sequence, a lone \r or a lone \n SHOULD be written through
without change.
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
5. File Attributes
A new compound data type is defined for encoding file attributes.
The same encoding is used both when returning file attributes from
the server and when sending file attributes to the server. When
sending it to the server, the flags field specifies which attributes
are included, and the server will use default values for the
remaining attributes (or will not modify the values of remaining
attributes). When receiving attributes from the server, the flags
specify which attributes are included in the returned data. The
server normally returns all attributes it knows about.
uint32 flags
byte type always present
uint64 size present only if flag SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_SIZE
string owner present only if flag SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_OWNERGROUP
string group present only if flag SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_OWNERGROUP
uint32 permissions present only if flag SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_PERMISSIONS
uint32 atime present only if flag SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_ACCESSTIME
uint32 createtime present only if flag SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_CREATETIME
uint32 mtime present only if flag SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_MODIFYTIME
string acl present only if flag SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_ACL
uint32 extended_count present only if flag SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_EXTENDED
string extended_type
string extended_data
... more extended data (extended_type - extended_data pairs),
so that number of pairs equals extended_count
5.1 Flags
The `flags' specify which of the fields are present. Those fields
for which the corresponding flag is not set are not present (not
included in the packet). New flags can only be added by incrementing
the protocol version number (or by using the extension mechanism
described below).
The flags bits are defined to have the following values:
#define SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_SIZE 0x00000001
#define SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_PERMISSIONS 0x00000004
#define SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_ACCESSTIME 0x00000008
#define SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_CREATETIME 0x00000010
#define SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_MODIFYTIME 0x00000020
#define SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_ACL 0x00000040
#define SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_OWNERGROUP 0x00000080
#define SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_EXTENDED 0x80000000
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
In previous versions of this protocol flags value 0x00000002 was
SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_UIDGID. This value is now unused, and OWNERGROUP
was given a new value in order to ease implementation burden.
0x00000002 MUST NOT appear in the mask. Some future version of this
protocol may reuse flag 0x00000002.
5.2 Type
The type field is always present. The following types are defined:
#define SSH_FILEXFER_TYPE_REGULAR 1
#define SSH_FILEXFER_TYPE_DIRECTORY 2
#define SSH_FILEXFER_TYPE_SYMLINK 3
#define SSH_FILEXFER_TYPE_SPECIAL 4
#define SSH_FILEXFER_TYPE_UNKNOWN 5
On a POSIX system, these values would be derived from the permission
field.
5.3 Size
The `size' field specifies the size of the file on disk, in bytes.
If it is present during file creation, it should be considered a hint
as to the files eventual size.
Files opened with the SSH_FXF_TEXT flag may have a size that is
greater or less than the value of the size field.
5.4 Owner and Group
The `owner' and `group' fields are represented as UTF-8 strings; this
is the form used by NFS v4. See NFS version 4 Protocol. [3] The
following text is selected quotations from section 5.6.
To avoid a representation that is tied to a particular underlying
implementation at the client or server, the use of UTF-8 strings has
been chosen. The string should be of the form user@dns_domain".
This will allow for a client and server that do not use the same
local representation the ability to translate to a common syntax that
can be interpreted by both. In the case where there is no
translation available to the client or server, the attribute value
must be constructed without the "@". Therefore, the absence of the @
from the owner or owner_group attribute signifies that no translation
was available and the receiver of the attribute should not place any
special meaning with the attribute value. Even though the attribute
value can not be translated, it may still be useful. In the case of
a client, the attribute string may be used for local display of
ownership.

Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
5.5 Permissions
The `permissions' field contains a bit mask of file permissions as
defined by POSIX [1].
5.6 Times
The 'atime', 'createtime', and 'mtime' contain the access, creation,
and modification times of the files, respectively. They are
represented as seconds from Jan 1, 1970 in UTC.
5.7 ACL
The 'ACL' field contains an ACL similar to that defined in section
5.9 of NFS version 4 Protocol [3].
uint32 ace-count
repeated ace-count time:
uint32 ace-type
uint32 ace-flag
uint32 ace-mask
string who [UTF-8]
ace-type is one of the following four values (taken from NFS Version
4 Protocol [3]:
const ACE4_ACCESS_ALLOWED_ACE_TYPE = 0x00000000;
const ACE4_ACCESS_DENIED_ACE_TYPE = 0x00000001;
const ACE4_SYSTEM_AUDIT_ACE_TYPE = 0x00000002;
const ACE4_SYSTEM_ALARM_ACE_TYPE = 0x00000003;
ace-flag is a combination of the following flag values. See NFS
Version 4 Protocol [3] section 5.9.2:
const ACE4_FILE_INHERIT_ACE = 0x00000001;
const ACE4_DIRECTORY_INHERIT_ACE = 0x00000002;

const ACE4_SYNCHRONIZE = 0x00100000;
who is a UTF-8 string of the form described in 'Owner and Group'
(Section 5.4)
5.8 Extended attributes
The SSH_FILEXFER_ATTR_EXTENDED flag provides a general extension
mechanism for vendor-specific extensions. If the flag is specified,
then the `extended_count' field is present. It specifies the number
of extended_type-extended_data pairs that follow. Each of these
pairs specifies an extended attribute. For each of the attributes,
the extended_type field should be a string of the format
"name@domain", where "domain" is a valid, registered domain name and
"name" identifies the method. The IETF may later standardize certain
names that deviate from this format (e.g., that do not contain the
"@" sign). The interpretation of `extended_data' depends on the
type. Implementations SHOULD ignore extended data fields that they
do not understand.
Additional fields can be added to the attributes by either defining
additional bits to the flags field to indicate their presence, or by
defining extended attributes for them. The extended attributes
mechanism is recommended for most purposes; additional flags bits
should only be defined by an IETF standards action that also
increments the protocol version number. The use of such new fields
MUST be negotiated by the version number in the protocol exchange.
It is a protocol error if a packet with unsupported protocol bits is
received.

Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
6. Requests From the Client to the Server
Requests from the client to the server represent the various file
system operations. Each request begins with an `id' field, which is
a 32-bit identifier identifying the request (selected by the client).
The same identifier will be returned in the response to the request.
One possible implementation is a monotonically increasing request
sequence number (modulo 2^32).
Many operations in the protocol operate on open files. The
SSH_FXP_OPEN request can return a file handle (which is an opaque
variable-length string) which may be used to access the file later
(e.g. in a read operation). The client MUST NOT send requests the
server with bogus or closed handles. However, the server MUST
perform adequate checks on the handle in order to avoid security
risks due to fabricated handles.
This design allows either stateful and stateless server
implementation, as well as an implementation which caches state
between requests but may also flush it. The contents of the file
handle string are entirely up to the server and its design. The
client should not modify or attempt to interpret the file handle
strings.
The file handle strings MUST NOT be longer than 256 bytes.
6.1 Request Synchronization and Reordering
The protocol and implementations MUST process requests relating to
the same file in the order in which they are received. In other
words, if an application submits multiple requests to the server, the
results in the responses will be the same as if it had sent the
requests one at a time and waited for the response in each case. For
example, the server may process non-overlapping read/write requests
to the same file in parallel, but overlapping reads and writes cannot
be reordered or parallelized. However, there are no ordering
restrictions on the server for processing requests from two different
file transfer connections. The server may interleave and parallelize
them at will.
There are no restrictions on the order in which responses to
outstanding requests are delivered to the client, except that the
server must ensure fairness in the sense that processing of no
request will be indefinitely delayed even if the client is sending
other requests so that there are multiple outstanding requests all
the time.
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 13]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
6.2 File Names
This protocol represents file names as strings. File names are
assumed to use the slash ('/') character as a directory separator.
File names starting with a slash are "absolute", and are relative to
the root of the file system. Names starting with any other character
are relative to the user's default directory (home directory). Note
that identifying the user is assumed to take place outside of this
protocol.
Servers SHOULD interpret a path name component ".." as referring to
the parent directory, and "." as referring to the current directory.
If the server implementation limits access to certain parts of the
file system, it must be extra careful in parsing file names when
enforcing such restrictions. There have been numerous reported
security bugs where a ".." in a path name has allowed access outside
the intended area.
An empty path name is valid, and it refers to the user's default
directory (usually the user's home directory).
Otherwise, no syntax is defined for file names by this specification.
Clients should not make any other assumptions; however, they can
splice path name components returned by SSH_FXP_READDIR together
using a slash ('/') as the separator, and that will work as expected.
In order to comply with IETF Policy on Character Sets and Languages
[2], all filenames are to be encoded in UTF-8. The shortest valid
UTF-8 encoding of the UNICODE data MUST be used. The server is
responsible for converting the UNICODE data to whatever canonical
form it requires.
For example, if the server requires that precomposed characters
always be used, the server MUST NOT assume the filename as sent by
the client has this attribute, but must do this normalization itself.
It is understood that the lack of well-defined semantics for file
names may cause interoperability problems between clients and servers
using radically different operating systems. However, this approach
is known to work acceptably with most systems, and alternative
approaches that e.g. treat file names as sequences of structured
components are quite complicated.
6.3 Opening, Creating, and Closing Files
Files are opened and created using the SSH_FXP_OPEN message, whose
data part is as follows:
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 14]

string filename [UTF-8]
uint32 pflags

The `id' field is the request identifier as for all requests.
The `filename' field specifies the file name. See Section ``File
Names'' for more information.
The `pflags' field is a bitmask. The following bits have been
defined.

#define SSH_FXF_TRUNC 0x00000010
#define SSH_FXF_EXCL 0x00000020
#define SSH_FXF_TEXT 0x00000040
These have the following meanings:
SSH_FXF_READ
Open the file for reading.
SSH_FXF_WRITE
Open the file for writing. If both this and SSH_FXF_READ are
specified, the file is opened for both reading and writing.
SSH_FXF_APPEND
Force all writes to append data at the end of the file. The
offset parameter to write will be ignored.
SSH_FXF_CREAT
If this flag is specified, then a new file will be created if one
does not already exist (if O_TRUNC is specified, the new file will
be truncated to zero length if it previously exists).
SSH_FXF_TRUNC
Forces an existing file with the same name to be truncated to zero
length when creating a file by specifying SSH_FXF_CREAT.
SSH_FXF_CREAT MUST also be specified if this flag is used.
SSH_FXF_EXCL
Causes the request to fail if the named file already exists.
SSH_FXF_CREAT MUST also be specified if this flag is used.

Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
SSH_FXF_TEXT
Indicates that the server should treat the file as text and
convert it to the canonical newline convention in use. (See
Determining Server Newline Convention. (Section 4.3)
When a file is opened with the FXF_TEXT flag, the offset field in
both the read and write function are ignored.
Servers MUST correctly process multiple parallel reads and writes
correctly in this mode. Naturally, it is permissible for them to
do this by serializing the requests. It would not be possible for
a client to reliably detect a server that does not implement
parallel writes in time to prevent damage.
Clients SHOULD use the SSH_FXF_APPEND flag to append data to a
text file rather then using write with a calculated offset.
To support seeks on text file the following SSH_FXP_EXTENDED
packet is defined.
string "text-seek"
string file-handle
uint64 line-number
line-number is the index of the line number to seek to, where byte
0 in the file is line number 0, and the byte directly following
the first newline sequence in the file is line number 1 and so on.
The response to a "text-seek" request is an SSH_FXP_STATUS
message.
An attempt to seek past the end-of-file should result in a
SSH_FX_EOF status.
Servers SHOULD support at least one "text-seek" in order to
support resume. However, a client MUST be prepared to receive
SSH_FX_OP_UNSUPPORTED when attempting a "text-seek" operation.
The client can then try a fall-back strategy, if it has one.
Clients MUST be prepared to handle SSH_FX_OP_UNSUPPORTED returned
for read or write operations that are not sequential.
The `attrs' field specifies the initial attributes for the file.
Default values will be used for those attributes that are not
specified. See Section ``File Attributes'' for more information.
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 16]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
The response to this message will be either SSH_FXP_HANDLE (if the
operation is successful) or SSH_FXP_STATUS (if the operation fails).
A file is closed by using the SSH_FXP_CLOSE request. Its data field
has the following format:
uint32 id
string handle
where `id' is the request identifier, and `handle' is a handle
previously returned in the response to SSH_FXP_OPEN or
SSH_FXP_OPENDIR. The handle becomes invalid immediately after this
request has been sent.
The response to this request will be a SSH_FXP_STATUS message. One
should note that on some server platforms even a close can fail.
This can happen e.g. if the server operating system caches writes,
and an error occurs while flushing cached writes during the close.
6.4 Reading and Writing
Once a file has been opened, it can be read using the SSH_FXP_READ
message, which has the following format:
uint32 id
string handle
uint64 offset
uint32 len
where `id' is the request identifier, `handle' is an open file handle
returned by SSH_FXP_OPEN, `offset' is the offset (in bytes) relative
to the beginning of the file from where to start reading, and `len'
is the maximum number of bytes to read.
In response to this request, the server will read as many bytes as it
can from the file (up to `len'), and return them in a SSH_FXP_DATA
message. If an error occurs or EOF is encountered before reading any
data, the server will respond with SSH_FXP_STATUS. For normal disk
files, it is guaranteed that this will read the specified number of
bytes, or up to end of file. For e.g. device files this may return
fewer bytes than requested.
Writing to a file is achieved using the SSH_FXP_WRITE message, which
has the following format:
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 17]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
uint32 id
string handle
uint64 offset
string data
where `id' is a request identifier, `handle' is a file handle
returned by SSH_FXP_OPEN, `offset' is the offset (in bytes) from the
beginning of the file where to start writing, and `data' is the data
to be written.
The write will extend the file if writing beyond the end of the file.
It is legal to write way beyond the end of the file; the semantics
are to write zeroes from the end of the file to the specified offset
and then the data. On most operating systems, such writes do not
allocate disk space but instead leave "holes" in the file.
The server responds to a write request with a SSH_FXP_STATUS message.
6.5 Removing and Renaming Files
Files can be removed using the SSH_FXP_REMOVE message. It has the
following format:
uint32 id
string filename [UTF-8]
where `id' is the request identifier and `filename' is the name of
the file to be removed. See Section ``File Names'' for more
information. This request cannot be used to remove directories.
The server will respond to this request with a SSH_FXP_STATUS
message.
Files (and directories) can be renamed using the SSH_FXP_RENAME
message. Its data is as follows:
uint32 id
string oldpath [UTF-8]
string newpath [UTF-8]
where `id' is the request identifier, `oldpath' is the name of an
existing file or directory, and `newpath' is the new name for the
file or directory. It is an error if there already exists a file
with the name specified by newpath. The server may also fail rename
requests in other situations, for example if `oldpath' and `newpath'
point to different file systems on the server.
The server will respond to this request with a SSH_FXP_STATUS
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 18]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
message.
6.6 Creating and Deleting Directories
New directories can be created using the SSH_FXP_MKDIR request. It
has the following format:
uint32 id
string path [UTF-8]
ATTRS attrs
where `id' is the request identifier.
`path' specifies the directory to be created. See Section ``File
Names'' for more information on file names.
`attrs' specifies the attributes that should be applied to it upon
creation. Attributes are discussed in more detail in Section ``File
Attributes''.
The server will respond to this request with a SSH_FXP_STATUS
message. If a file or directory with the specified path already
exists, an error will be returned.
Directories can be removed using the SSH_FXP_RMDIR request, which has
the following format:
uint32 id
string path [UTF-8]
where `id' is the request identifier, and `path' specifies the
directory to be removed. See Section ``File Names'' for more
information on file names.
The server responds to this request with a SSH_FXP_STATUS message.
Errors may be returned from this operation for various reasons,
including, but not limited to, the path does not exist, the path does
not refer to a directory object, the directory is not empty, or the
user has insufficient access or permission to perform the requested
operation.
6.7 Scanning Directories
The files in a directory can be listed using the SSH_FXP_OPENDIR and
SSH_FXP_READDIR requests. Each SSH_FXP_READDIR request returns one
or more file names with full file attributes for each file. The
client should call SSH_FXP_READDIR repeatedly until it has found the
file it is looking for or until the server responds with a
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 19]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
SSH_FXP_STATUS message indicating an error (normally SSH_FX_EOF if
there are no more files in the directory). The client should then
close the handle using the SSH_FXP_CLOSE request.
The SSH_FXP_OPENDIR opens a directory for reading. It has the
following format:
uint32 id
string path [UTF-8]
where `id' is the request identifier and `path' is the path name of
the directory to be listed (without any trailing slash). See Section
``File Names'' for more information on file names. This will return
an error if the path does not specify a directory or if the directory
is not readable. The server will respond to this request with either
a SSH_FXP_HANDLE or a SSH_FXP_STATUS message.
Once the directory has been successfully opened, files (and
directories) contained in it can be listed using SSH_FXP_READDIR
requests. These are of the format
uint32 id
string handle
where `id' is the request identifier, and `handle' is a handle
returned by SSH_FXP_OPENDIR. (It is a protocol error to attempt to
use an ordinary file handle returned by SSH_FXP_OPEN.)
The server responds to this request with either a SSH_FXP_NAME or a
SSH_FXP_STATUS message. One or more names may be returned at a time.
Full status information is returned for each name in order to speed
up typical directory listings.
If there are no more names available to be read, the server MUST
respond with a SSH_FXP_STATUS message with error code of SSH_FX_EOF.
When the client no longer wishes to read more names from the
directory, it SHOULD call SSH_FXP_CLOSE for the handle. The handle
should be closed regardless of whether an error has occurred or not.
6.8 Retrieving File Attributes
Very often, file attributes are automatically returned by
SSH_FXP_READDIR. However, sometimes there is need to specifically
retrieve the attributes for a named file. This can be done using the
SSH_FXP_STAT, SSH_FXP_LSTAT and SSH_FXP_FSTAT requests.
SSH_FXP_STAT and SSH_FXP_LSTAT only differ in that SSH_FXP_STAT
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 20]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
follows symbolic links on the server, whereas SSH_FXP_LSTAT does not
follow symbolic links. Both have the same format:
uint32 id
string path [UTF-8]
uint32 flags
where `id' is the request identifier, and `path' specifies the file
system object for which status is to be returned. The server
responds to this request with either SSH_FXP_ATTRS or SSH_FXP_STATUS.
The flags field specify the attribute flags in which the client has
particular interest. This is a hint to the server. For example,
because retrieving owner / group and acl information can be an
expensive operation under some operating systems, the server may
choose not to retrieve this information unless the client expresses a
specific interest in it.
The client has no guarantee the server will provide all the fields
that it has expressed an interest in.
SSH_FXP_FSTAT differs from the others in that it returns status
information for an open file (identified by the file handle). Its
format is as follows:
uint32 id
string handle
uint32 flags
where `id' is the request identifier and `handle' is a file handle
returned by SSH_FXP_OPEN. The server responds to this request with
SSH_FXP_ATTRS or SSH_FXP_STATUS.
6.9 Setting File Attributes
File attributes may be modified using the SSH_FXP_SETSTAT and
SSH_FXP_FSETSTAT requests. These requests are used for operations
such as changing the ownership, permissions or access times, as well
as for truncating a file.
The SSH_FXP_SETSTAT request is of the following format:
uint32 id
string path [UTF-8]
ATTRS attrs
where `id' is the request identifier, `path' specifies the file
system object (e.g. file or directory) whose attributes are to be
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 21]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
modified, and `attrs' specifies the modifications to be made to its
attributes. Attributes are discussed in more detail in Section
``File Attributes''.
An error will be returned if the specified file system object does
not exist or the user does not have sufficient rights to modify the
specified attributes. The server responds to this request with a
SSH_FXP_STATUS message.
The SSH_FXP_FSETSTAT request modifies the attributes of a file which
is already open. It has the following format:
uint32 id
string handle
ATTRS attrs
where `id' is the request identifier, `handle' (MUST be returned by
SSH_FXP_OPEN) identifies the file whose attributes are to be
modified, and `attrs' specifies the modifications to be made to its
attributes. Attributes are discussed in more detail in Section
``File Attributes''. The server will respond to this request with
SSH_FXP_STATUS.
6.10 Dealing with Symbolic links
The SSH_FXP_READLINK request may be used to read the target of a
symbolic link. It would have a data part as follows:
uint32 id
string path [UTF-8]
where `id' is the request identifier and `path' specifies the path
name of the symlink to be read.
The server will respond with a SSH_FXP_NAME packet containing only
one name and a dummy attributes value. The name in the returned
packet contains the target of the link. If an error occurs, the
server may respond with SSH_FXP_STATUS.
The SSH_FXP_SYMLINK request will create a symbolic link on the
server. It is of the following format
uint32 id
string linkpath [UTF-8]
string targetpath [UTF-8]
where `id' is the request identifier, `linkpath' specifies the path
name of the symlink to be created and `targetpath' specifies the
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 22]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
target of the symlink. The server shall respond with a
SSH_FXP_STATUS indicating either success (SSH_FX_OK) or an error
condition.
6.11 Canonicalizing the Server-Side Path Name
The SSH_FXP_REALPATH request can be used to have the server
canonicalize any given path name to an absolute path. This is useful
for converting path names containing ".." components or relative
pathnames without a leading slash into absolute paths. The format of
the request is as follows:
uint32 id
string path [UTF-8]
where `id' is the request identifier and `path' specifies the path
name to be canonicalized. The server will respond with a
SSH_FXP_NAME packet containing the name in canonical form and a dummy
attributes value. If an error occurs, the server may also respond
with SSH_FXP_STATUS.
6.11.1 Best practice for dealing with paths
The client SHOULD treat the results of SSH_FXP_REALPATH as a
canonical absolute path, even if the path does not appear to be
absolute. A client that use REALPATH(".") and treats the result as
absolute, even if there is no leading slash, will continue to
function correctly, even when talking to a Windows NT or VMS style
system, where absolute paths may not begin with a slash.
For example, if the client wishes to change directory up, and the
server has returned "c:/x/y/z" from REALPATH, the client SHOULD use
"c:/x/y/z/..".
As a second example, if the client wishes to open the file "x.txt" in
the current directory, and server has returned "dka100:/x/y/z" as the
canonical path of the directory, the client SHOULD open "dka100:/x/y/
z/x.txt"

Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
7. Responses from the Server to the Client
The server responds to the client using one of a few response
packets. All requests can return a SSH_FXP_STATUS response upon
failure. When the operation is successful, any of the responses may
be returned (depending on the operation). If no data needs to be
returned to the client, the SSH_FXP_STATUS response with SSH_FX_OK
status is appropriate. Otherwise, the SSH_FXP_HANDLE message is used
to return a file handle (for SSH_FXP_OPEN and SSH_FXP_OPENDIR
requests), SSH_FXP_DATA is used to return data from SSH_FXP_READ,
SSH_FXP_NAME is used to return one or more file names from a
SSH_FXP_READDIR or SSH_FXP_REALPATH request, and SSH_FXP_ATTRS is
used to return file attributes from SSH_FXP_STAT, SSH_FXP_LSTAT, and
SSH_FXP_FSTAT requests.
Exactly one response will be returned for each request. Each
response packet contains a request identifier which can be used to
match each response with the corresponding request. Note that it is
legal to have several requests outstanding simultaneously, and the
server is allowed to send responses to them in a different order from
the order in which the requests were sent (the result of their
execution, however, is guaranteed to be as if they had been processed
one at a time in the order in which the requests were sent).
Response packets are of the same general format as request packets.
Each response packet begins with the request identifier.
The format of the data portion of the SSH_FXP_STATUS response is as
follows:
uint32 id
uint32 error/status code
string error message (ISO-10646 UTF-8 [RFC-2279])
string language tag (as defined in [RFC-1766])
where `id' is the request identifier, and `error/status code'
indicates the result of the requested operation. The value SSH_FX_OK
indicates success, and all other values indicate failure.
Currently, the following values are defined (other values may be
defined by future versions of this protocol):
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 24]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
#define SSH_FX_OK 0
#define SSH_FX_EOF 1
#define SSH_FX_NO_SUCH_FILE 2
#define SSH_FX_PERMISSION_DENIED 3
#define SSH_FX_FAILURE 4
#define SSH_FX_BAD_MESSAGE 5
#define SSH_FX_NO_CONNECTION 6
#define SSH_FX_CONNECTION_LOST 7
#define SSH_FX_OP_UNSUPPORTED 8
#define SSH_FX_INVALID_HANDLE 9
#define SSH_FX_NO_SUCH_PATH 10
#define SSH_FX_FILE_ALREADY_EXISTS 11
#define SSH_FX_WRITE_PROTECT 12
SSH_FX_OK
Indicates successful completion of the operation.
SSH_FX_EOF
indicates end-of-file condition; for SSH_FX_READ it means that no
more data is available in the file, and for SSH_FX_READDIR it
indicates that no more files are contained in the directory.
SSH_FX_NO_SUCH_FILE
is returned when a reference is made to a file which does not
exist.
SSH_FX_PERMISSION_DENIED
is returned when the authenticated user does not have sufficient
permissions to perform the operation.
SSH_FX_FAILURE
is a generic catch-all error message; it should be returned if an
error occurs for which there is no more specific error code
defined.
SSH_FX_BAD_MESSAGE
may be returned if a badly formatted packet or protocol
incompatibility is detected.
SSH_FX_NO_CONNECTION
is a pseudo-error which indicates that the client has no
connection to the server (it can only be generated locally by the
client, and MUST NOT be returned by servers).
SSH_FX_CONNECTION_LOST
is a pseudo-error which indicates that the connection to the
server has been lost (it can only be generated locally by the
client, and MUST NOT be returned by servers).
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 25]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
SSH_FX_OP_UNSUPPORTED
indicates that an attempt was made to perform an operation which
is not supported for the server (it may be generated locally by
the client if e.g. the version number exchange indicates that a
required feature is not supported by the server, or it may be
returned by the server if the server does not implement an
operation).
SSH_FX_INVALID_HANDLE
The handle value was invalid.
SSH_FX_NO_SUCH_PATH
The file path does not exist or is invalid.
SSH_FX_FILE_ALREADY_EXISTS
The file already exists.
SSH_FX_WRITE_PROTECT
The file is on read only media, or the media is write protected.
The SSH_FXP_HANDLE response has the following format:
uint32 id
string handle
where `id' is the request identifier, and `handle' is an arbitrary
string that identifies an open file or directory on the server. The
handle is opaque to the client; the client MUST NOT attempt to
interpret or modify it in any way. The length of the handle string
MUST NOT exceed 256 data bytes.
The SSH_FXP_DATA response has the following format:
uint32 id
string data
where `id' is the request identifier, and `data' is an arbitrary byte
string containing the requested data. The data string may be at most
the number of bytes requested in a SSH_FXP_READ request, but may also
be shorter if end of file is reached or if the read is from something
other than a regular file.
The SSH_FXP_NAME response has the following format:
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 26]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
uint32 id
uint32 count
repeats count times:
string filename [UTF-8]
ATTRS attrs
where `id' is the request identifier, `count' is the number of names
returned in this response, and the remaining fields repeat `count'
times (so that all three fields are first included for the first
file, then for the second file, etc). In the repeated part,
`filename' is a file name being returned (for SSH_FXP_READDIR, it
will be a relative name within the directory, without any path
components; for SSH_FXP_REALPATH it will be an absolute path name),
and `attrs' is the attributes of the file as described in Section
``File Attributes''.
The SSH_FXP_ATTRS response has the following format:
uint32 id
ATTRS attrs
where `id' is the request identifier, and `attrs' is the returned
file attributes as described in Section ``File Attributes''.
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 27]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
8. Vendor-Specific Extensions
The SSH_FXP_EXTENDED request provides a generic extension mechanism
for adding vendor-specific commands. The request has the following
format:
uint32 id
string extended-request
... any request-specific data ...
where `id' is the request identifier, and `extended-request' is a
string of the format "name@domain", where domain is an internet
domain name of the vendor defining the request. The rest of the
request is completely vendor-specific, and servers should only
attempt to interpret it if they recognize the `extended-request'
name.
The server may respond to such requests using any of the response
packets defined in Section ``Responses from the Server to the
Client''. Additionally, the server may also respond with a
SSH_FXP_EXTENDED_REPLY packet, as defined below. If the server does
not recognize the `extended-request' name, then the server MUST
respond with SSH_FXP_STATUS with error/status set to
SSH_FX_OP_UNSUPPORTED.
The SSH_FXP_EXTENDED_REPLY packet can be used to carry arbitrary
extension-specific data from the server to the client. It is of the
following format:
uint32 id
... any request-specific data ...
There is a range of packet types reserved for use by extensions. In
order to avoid collision, extensions that turn on the use of
additional packet types should determine those numbers dynamically.
The suggested way of doing this is have an extension request from the
client to the server that enables the extension; the extension
response from the server to the client would specify the actual type
values to use, in additional to any other data.
Extension authors should be mindful of the limited range of packet
types available (there are only 45 values available) and avoid
requiring a new packet type where possible.

9. Security Considerations
This protocol assumes that it is run over a secure channel and that
the endpoints of the channel have been authenticated. Thus, this
protocol assumes that it is externally protected from network-level
attacks.
This protocol provides file system access to arbitrary files on the
server (only constrained by the server implementation). It is the
responsibility of the server implementation to enforce any access
controls that may be required to limit the access allowed for any
particular user (the user being authenticated externally to this
protocol, typically using the SSH User Authentication Protocol [8].
Care must be taken in the server implementation to check the validity
of received file handle strings. The server should not rely on them
directly; it MUST check the validity of each handle before relying on
it.

10. Changes from previous protocol versions
The SSH File Transfer Protocol has changed over time, before it's
standardization. The following is a description of the incompatible
changes between different versions.
10.1 Changes between versions 4 and 3
Many of the changes between version 4 and version 3 are to the
attribute structure to make it more flexible for non-unix platforms.
o Make all filenames UTF-8.
o Added 'newline' extension.
o Made file attribute owner and group strings so they can actually
be used on disparate systems.
o Added createtime field, and added separate flags for atime,
createtime, and mtime so they can be set separately.
o Split the file type out of the permissions field and into it's own
field (which is always present.)
o Added acl attribute.
o Added SSH_FXF_TEXT file open flag.
o Added flags field to the get stat commands so that the client can
specifically request information the server might not normally
included for performance reasons.
o Removed the long filename from the names structure-- it can now be
built from information available in the attrs structure.
o Added reserved range of packet numbers for extensions.
o Added several additional error codes.
o Change the way version negotiate works slightly. Previously, if
the client version were higher than the server version, the server
was supposed to 'echo back' the clients version. The server now
sends it's own version and the lower of the two is considered to
be the one in use.
Galbraith, et al. Expires April 16, 2003 [Page 30]
Internet-Draft SSH File Transfer Protocol October 2002
10.2 Changes between versions 3 and 2
o The SSH_FXP_READLINK and SSH_FXP_SYMLINK messages were added.
o The SSH_FXP_EXTENDED and SSH_FXP_EXTENDED_REPLY messages were
added.
o The SSH_FXP_STATUS message was changed to include fields `error
message' and `language tag'.
10.3 Changes between versions 2 and 1
o The SSH_FXP_RENAME message was added.
10.4 Changes between versions 1 and 0
o Implementation changes, no actual protocol changes.
