-
Security fix: PuTTY no longer retains the private half of users' keys
in memory by mistake after authenticating with them. See
private-key-not-wiped-2.
(Sorry! We thought we'd fixed that in 0.63, but missed one.)
-
Support for SSH connection sharing, so that multiple instances of
PuTTY to the same host can share a single SSH connection instead of
all having to log in independently.
-
Command-line and configuration option to specify the expected host
key(s).
-
Defaults change: PuTTY now defaults to SSH-2 only, instead of
its previous default of SSH-2 preferred.
-
Local socket errors in port-forwarded connections are now recorded in
the PuTTY Event Log.
-
Bug fix: repeat key exchanges in the middle of an SSH session now
never cause an annoying interactive host key prompt.
-
Bug fix: reset the bolded-text default setting back to what it used to
be. (0.63 set it to something wrong, as a side effect of refactoring.)
-
Bug fix: IPv6 literals are handled sensibly throughout the suite, if
you enclose them in square brackets to prevent the colons being
mistaken for a
:port suffix.
-
Bug fix: IPv6 dynamic port forwardings should work again.
