  Log Message:
  -----------
  A signal handler in sshd(8) calls a function that is not async-signal-safe.
The signal handler is invoked when a client does not authenticate within the
LoginGraceTime seconds (120 by default).  This signal handler executes in the
context of the sshd(8)'s privileged code, which is not sandboxed and runs
with full root privileges.

This issue is a regression of CVE-2006-5051 originally reported by Mark Dowd
and accidentally reintroduced in OpenSSH 8.5p1.
