            Bug ID: 3245
           Summary: test compatibility with hardened memory allocator
                    Hardened Malloc
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 8.4p1
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: Regression tests
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
          Reporter: adrelanos at riseup.net

There was an issue which effective resulted in broken SSH login.

References:

* https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/pull/142
* https://github.com/GrapheneOS/hardened_malloc/issues/97

Further changes in either OpenSSH and/or Hardened Malloc might lead to
regressions.

Could you please consider adding a regression test for this?

Running the regressions test suite with Hardened Malloc enabled might
not only ensure compatibility with Hardened Malloc but also reveal some
memory allocation related bugs which might happen in setups without
Hardened Malloc.
