Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla at FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-ruby mailing list
<ruby at FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback:
Bug 237249: [patch] security/rubygem-net-ssh: Update to 5.2.0
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=237249



--- Description ---
A new release of security/rubygem-net-ssh is available (5.2.0).

The attached patch add a pkg-message entry to inform end-users about net-ssh
not validating ssh keys the same way as OpenSSH itself and leading to
authentication failures; and include a workaround for this issue.

The issue is expected to vanish with the removal of the extra checks which are
planned for a future major release.
