The only change between 0.80 and 0.81 is one security fix:

 - ECDSA signatures using 521-bit keys (the NIST P521 curve, otherwise
   known as ecdsa-sha2-nistp521) were generated with biased random
   numbers. This permits an attacker in possession of a few dozen
   signatures to RECOVER THE PRIVATE KEY.

   Any 521-bit ECDSA private key that PuTTY or Pageant has used to
   sign anything should be considered compromised.

   This vulnerability has the identifier CVE-2024-31497.

Update hash of LICENCE file (update in year with
https://git.tartarus.org/?p=simon/putty.git;a=commit;h=f2f28ac0386eebbd45ea605818d31d62d219f589)
