+Subject: Disable async-signal-unsafe code from the sshsigdie() function
+
+Address signal handler race condition: if a client does not authenticate
+within LoginGraceTime seconds (120 by default, 600 in old OpenSSH
+versions), then sshd's SIGALRM handler is called asynchronously, but
+this signal handler calls various functions that are not
+async-signal-safe (for example, syslog()).
+
+This is a regression from CVE-2006-5051 ("Signal handler race condition
+in OpenSSH before 4.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
+service (crash), and possibly execute arbitrary code")
