CVE-2026-48798: SSH.NET: ScpClient Recursive Download Allows Arbitrary File Write via Server-Controlled SCP Filenames

ScpClient.Download(string directoryName, DirectoryInfo directoryInfo) writes files and directories using names returned by the remote SCP server during recursive downloads, with no validation that the resulting path stays inside the requested local directory. A malicious, compromised, or man-in-the-middle SCP server can return names containing ../ sequences (or absolute paths), causing the client to create directories and write/overwrite files anywhere the client process has access. This is similar to OpenSSH CVE-2019-6111, but with directory traversal capability.
