x/crypto/ssh: prevent DoS on deadlocked established channel #81317
Previously, after a channel has been established, a
malicious peer could send crafted messages that would
deadlock the entire connection.
Now, we handle all RFC 4254 channel messages; global
requests are handled explicitly. Then, treat all other
messages as a protocol error and tear the connection
down instead of buffering and blocking.
Thanks to Will Mortensen for reporting this issue.
