x/crypto/ssh: prevent DoS on deadlocked undecided channel #81316
Previously, a channel registered in the mux's chanList is
not usable until it is established. A malicious peer was
able flood the channel's incomingRequests, deadlocking the
entire connection.
Now, we add an atomic established state, set when a channel
becomes usable. Until such a time, handlePacket drops every
packet other than the open confirmation/failure, without
blocking and without tearing down the connection.
Thanks to Will Mortensen for reporting this issue.
