Please do not report security vulnerabilities in public GitHub issues.

Use GitHub's private vulnerability reporting for this repository:

https://github.com/connectbot/cbssh/security/advisories/new

If private vulnerability reporting is unavailable, contact the maintainers privately before publishing details.

When possible, include:

• The affected library version or commit.
• A clear description of the vulnerability and impact.
• Steps to reproduce, proof-of-concept code, or relevant logs.
• Any known affected SSH servers, algorithms, authentication methods, or protocol messages.
• Whether the issue is already public or has been reported elsewhere.

Please avoid including secrets, private keys, production credentials, or sensitive host details in reports.

Security fixes are generally provided for:

• The current development line on main.
• Active maintenance branches named release/<major.minor>.

Older versions may receive fixes when the impact is severe and a maintenance branch exists or can be reasonably created.

Maintainers will review private reports and coordinate a fix before public disclosure when appropriate. Depending on severity and complexity, the fix may be released from main, an active release/<major.minor> branch, or both.

Public advisories, release notes, and CVE requests will be handled after a fix is available or a coordinated disclosure date is reached.
