Re: Bad PIN when trying to edit card

Sorry for the noise, I figured it out.
Turns out the default admin pin is "12345678" and not "123456789" like I thought. For some reason, when you run passwd to change it, it accepts "123456789" perfectly fine but doesn't actually change it, which is what threw me off.

Bad PIN when trying to edit card

2018-01-03T14:51:13+01:00

Hi,

I've created a ticket, but I'll post here aswell just in case it's faster.

I'm trying to configure a new yubikey, with gpg --card-edit I get :

Reader ...........: Yubico Yubikey 4 OTP U2F CCID 00 00
Application ID ...:
Version ..........: 2.1
Manufacturer .....: Yubico
Serial number ....:
Name of cardholder: [not set]
Language prefs ...: [not set]
Sex ..............: unspecified
URL of public key : [not set]
Login data .......: [not set]
Signature PIN ....: not forced
Key attributes ...: rsa2048 rsa2048 rsa2048
Max. PIN lengths .: 127 127 127
PIN retry counter : 3 0 3
Signature counter : 0
Signature key ....: [none]
Encryption key....: [none]
Authentication key: [none]
General key info..: [none]

(not sure what can or cannot be public in that).
Using admin then passwd, I can change the normal and admin PINs successfully. If I then try to use name, or lang for example to change card infos, it asks for my admin PIN, but always says bad pin :

gpg: error setting Name: Bad PIN

The PIN I'm typing is, of course, the same one I used when changing it. I also tried not to change it and use the default one, same thing.
I've reset the applet a bunch of times with https://www.yubico.com/support/knowledg ... t-yubikey/ to keep trying but whatever I try it still says bad pin.
What could I be doing wrong ? Thanks
