I submitted a Pull Request to update MacPorts' libssh to 0.12.0 here:
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/314723 of 3 of GitHub Continuous Integration checks passed.
It's up to someone else with commit access to merge it.
I'm not the maintainer, nor am I really a user of libssh, so some things are not particularly tested (I did attempt to run "port -vst install" but tbh even "port -v install" was failing due to some weird kerberos defaults and I don't run kerberos locally, for good reasons. Also, I don't really use anything dependent upon libssh).
It was more that I was having dreams about OpenSSH and figured I should test a snapshot (no issues there, phew!) but noticed that libssh had been version bumped (more than one actually, there's also a 0.11.4 release) and there were security related issues, so it seemed worth at least submitting a Pull Request since it had apparently slipped under the maintainer's radar? The Portfile is also listed as openmaintainer, so I am guessing a little outside assistance is welcome.
Hopefully it helps some others! Doesn't do much of anything for me.
Hopefully it doesn't break anything for others; that I am less certain about.
