openssh: Fix CVE-2025-26466

sshd(8) in OpenSSH versions 9.5p1 to 9.9p1
  (inclusive) is vulnerable to a memory/CPU denial-of-service related
  to the handling of SSH2_MSG_PING packets. This condition may be
  mitigated using the existing PerSourcePenalties feature.

Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/commit/6ce00f0c2ecbb9f75023dbe627ee6460bcec78c2]
