SSHd crash with SecureCRT NO-OP

[Gerald Villemure]

The moment SecureCRT (SSH client) sends a NO-OP packet, SSHd crashes with this error:
   sshd[1701]: segfault at b9552000 ip b75299f8 sp bfd52370 error 6 in libcrypto.so.1.0.0[b74d1000+192000]

Debian has a related bug: Bug#665836

I have the problem with:
   libssl1.0.0_1.0.1-2ubuntu2
It works fine with:
  libssl1.0.0_1.0.0e-2ubuntu4

What is strange is if I use the OpenSSH client:
   ssh -o 'ServerAliveInterval 10' server
or I use the PUTTY client I am unable to reproduce the crash.

Its tempting to simply say that its a SecureCRT bug and leave it at that, but I would rather not have SSHd so easy to crash.

Its been a week, when will the fix be available in the repos?

The bug is still there with: libssl1.0.0_1.0.1-2ubuntu4

FYI, There is an official patch for the vpaes problem.
