CVE-2026-46595 extended source-address validation, historically applied
only to the Permissions returned by PublicKeyCallback, to the ones
returned by VerifiedPublicKeyCallback. The documented contract of
Permissions.CriticalOptions does not restrict enforcement to a specific
authentication method, so move the check to a single point at the end of
each authentication attempt, where it covers the Permissions returned by
any callback (password, keyboard-interactive, none and GSSAPI included).
The check at public key cache insertion time is kept: it remains
authoritative for the Permissions returned by PublicKeyCallback, which
VerifiedPublicKeyCallback may replace before the check at the end of the
authentication attempt runs and which are not re-checked on partial
success. It also still makes public key queries fail before the client
produces a signature when PublicKeyCallback supplies the restriction.
