Hi All,  
Starting from Jan 12th, 2022, Publish Over ssh Plugin (used to send artifacts over SSH from Jenkins) has been Suspended

Does anyone has any idea what is another plugin that we can use to send the artifacts over ssh from Jenkins in Linux Environment

Some possible alternatives:

- Use the `scp` command from a Pipeline `sh` step in a `withCredentials` wrapper that provides the ssh private key to the `sh` step
- Use the `rsync` command from a Pipeline `sh` step in a `withCredentials` wrapper that provides the ssh private key to the `sh` step
- Use the credentials binding plugin in a Freestyle project to provide the ssh private key to a shell step that calls `scp`
- Use the credentials binding plugin in a Freestyle project to provide the ssh private key to a shell step that calls `rsync`

If none of those work, you could download the publish-over-ssh plugin from [repo.jenkins-ci.org](http://repo.jenkins-ci.org) and use it, knowing that it has 4 open security issues.

A new maintainer has stepped up so hopefully a new release is coming

There was a release 1.23 on GitHub which addresses the security issues: [Releases · jenkinsci/publish-over-ssh-plugin · GitHub](https://github.com/jenkinsci/publish-over-ssh-plugin/releases)  
But the plugin is still suspended: [https://plugins.jenkins.io/publish-over-ssh/](https://plugins.jenkins.io/publish-over-ssh/)  
Any idea when this update will be visible in ther plugin manager?

That ^. I can’t find any procedure on the site of the Jenkins security team on how suspended plugins can be reactivated again. But maybe that is only up to the maintainers of the plugin?

Its a couple PRS to the update-center2 repo. The new maintainer is working on the plugin, I’ve seen the conversations on chat.

For now you’ll just have to be patient.

Thanks for everyone’s patience whilst the issues were worked through to get that last release approved and unblock the plugin.
