A.10.1 Is PuTTY a port of OpenSSH, or based on OpenSSH or OpenSSL?

No, it isn't. PuTTY is almost completely composed of code written from scratch for PuTTY. As of 2026, PuTTY and OpenSSH have no code in common as far as I know.

(In the past, there has been at least one case of both tools sharing the same piece of third-party code, but not in up-to-date versions.)
