It won't be that, since a fresh sshd-session process is started each 
time you connect.

OK, so the log message just tells me that the crash in _IO_vfprintf, 
which isn't very specific; we need to get a core dump.  Assuming you're 
running systemd, could you please:

  * install the gdb and systemd-coredump packages
  * get the crash to happen again
  * run "sudo coredumpctl list" to check whether it's picked up the core 
    dump
  * run "sudo DEBUGINFOD_URLS=https://debuginfod.debian.net/ coredumpctl 
    debug <pid>", where <pid> is the value in the PID column of 
    "coredumpctl list" corresponding to the process that crashed
  * press "y" at the "Enable debuginfod for this session?" prompt
  * type "bt" at the "(gdb)" prompt
  * reply to this email with the output

There are other options if you aren't running systemd, but this is 
probably the easiest to set up on a stock Debian system.

Thanks,
