Patch suggestion
The `main` function of ssh_agent makes sure to initialize
`websafe_allowlist`, which is used in `process_sign_request2`. The
fuzzer for this component does not use the main function, but calls
`process_sign_request2` directly, leaving the value uninitialized.
Fuzzing inputs reaching this code cause a NULL ptr dereference. 
This seems to be an issue only present in the fuzzing code, but leads
to false positives and untested code beyond this point.
I attached a potential patch for this bug, mimicking the default for
ssh_agent.
