Reason for Change
Add the official upstream
russhv0.61.1 security-release reference to GHSA-wwx6-x28x-8259 (CVE-2026-46702).Supporting Evidence
The official russh v0.61.1 release notes explicitly identify GHSA-wwx6-x28x-8259 and document the security fix for excessive resource consumption caused by insufficient limits on decompressed SSH packets.
The patched version
0.61.1is already documented in the advisory's affected-package metadata.Justification
Adding the official patched-release reference provides direct, maintainer-controlled evidence identifying the release containing the security fix. It improves traceability and helps developers verify the remediation.
Scope: Reference-only improvement. No changes to affected-package metadata, vulnerable or patched version ranges, vulnerability description, CWE classifications, severity, or CVSS scoring.
