First, it helps if you give your message a better subject
than "ssh bug".

Second, if this is on a system with port 22 exposed to un-trusted
networks, there's a good chance that the messages you're seeing are
being generated by folks trying to exploit one of the recent bugs
in zlib/OpenSSH.  As long as you're running a current version of
OpenSSH, you should be okay--but if you would like more help, please
post the exact messages from syslog or /var/adm/messages that you're
seeing.
