Description:
After upgrade from WB 6.3.10 to 8.0.11 and 8.0.12
ssh tunnel with key authentication are not established.

Creating a local tunnel 
ssh -L localhost:33060:localhost:3306 user@server
and connecting via WB does work.

I get following error on fresh install and restored connections (working on previous version)

How to repeat:
When using a server with ssh and authentication with key setup, no connection/tunnel can be created

Thank you for the bug report. Which exactly Linux OS are you using?. Thanks.

I'm using Arch Linux default/stable repository even patching following code did not resolve the issue.

Thank you for the feedback. Unlucky currently Arch Linux isn't supported OS.

I would say 

supported through

Generic Linux (tar format).

So please provide any useful hints if you have any.

because I downgraded the WB and now it works as expected.
