At the moment, we officially support versions of OpenSSH 7. We are in the process of updating our SSH library (jsch) which would be compatible with future OpenSSH releases.
Currently there is not an exact timeline for this update. Keeping an eye on future CIS-CAT Pro Assessor Change Logs will let you know when this has been implemented.
