Invalid subsystem request while using WarpTerminal

 Invalid subsystem request while using Warp SSH client. 

The error can be found in the ezsh log in the users home directory.

tail -f /home/ezadmin/ezsh.log

Invalid subsystem request:
export TERM_PROGRAM='WarpTerminal'

Query failed (UPDATE `bgu_gwactivity_logs` SET `user_id`='1', `status`='FAIL: Invalid subsystem request:

export TERM_PROGRAM='WarpTerminal'

To resolve the issue, use the absolute path to the  ssh command as shown below when using the  Warp SSH Client

/usr/bin/ssh [email protected]

The error occurs because the warp ssh client tries to execute remote command which the ezsh shell does not permit as a security measure to prevent remote command execution on the Ezeelogin ssh jump server.
