+Subject: [PATCH] upstream: Improve rules for %-expansion of username.
+
+Usernames passed on the commandline will no longer be subject to
+% expansion. Some tools invoke ssh with connection information
+(i.e. usernames and host names) supplied from untrusted sources.
+These may contain % expansion sequences which could yield
+unexpected results.
+
+Since openssh-9.6, all usernames have been subject to validity
+checking. This change tightens the validity checks by refusing
+usernames that include control characters (again, these can cause
+surprises when supplied adversarially).
+
+This change also relaxes the validity checks in one small way:
+usernames supplied via the configuration file as literals (i.e.
+include no % expansion characters) are not subject to these
+validity checks. This allows usernames that contain arbitrary
+characters to be used, but only via configuration files. This
+is done on the basis that ssh's configuration is trusted.
