New in 1.3.7
- Fixed: "the server speaks an SSH version Noden doesn't support". Ruijie switches, Cisco IOS and older Comware devices introduce themselves as
SSH-1.99-…, which RFC 4253 §5.1 defines as "I speak SSH 2.0, and I am also compatible with the older 1.x protocol". Noden was reading only three characters of that version string —1.9instead of1.99— and rejecting the device before the handshake even began. It now reads the full protocol version and connects. Genuinely obsolete protocols (SSH 1.5) are still refused.
The version string is hashed into the key exchange, so it is passed through byte for byte rather than normalised — trimming it would have moved the failure to signature verification instead of fixing it.
Verified end to end against a simulator announcing SSH-1.99-RGOS_SSH_1.0: version exchange, key exchange, keyboard-interactive sign-in, PTY and shell all complete.
This continues the work in 1.3.3–1.3.6 on switches and appliances that only speak older SSH.
