I happened to find a bug report about this:

  
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3564436&group_id=148927&atid=773100

It turns out that when this error occurs, it allows a login with the
correct password even if the user or host is blocked.

Until this is fixed, this can be worked around by setting "MaxAuthTries"
in sshd_config to 1.
