It is on the order of random-typewriter monkeys producing Hamlet that this
particular issue could happen from a bad RPM -- but it is *quite* likely
that it could happen if your system were hacked and someone clumbsily
installed a trojaned sshd.

What happens if you run "rpm -V openssh"?

And, uh, I'd also run chkrootkit.
