            Bug ID: 3875
           Summary: SSH client behavior breaks non-interactive sudo/stdio
                    handling used by Ansible (automation times out waiting
                    for privilege escalation)
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 10.1p1
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P5
         Component: Miscellaneous
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

After upgrading to OpenSSH 10.1p1 on Slackware64-current, both Ansible
ad-hoc commands and playbooks that use sudo/become started failing with

“Timeout (12s) waiting for privilege escalation prompt.” 

Downgrading OpenSSH immediately fixes it. Disabling SSH multiplexing
(ControlMaster/ControlPersist) also fixes it, confirming the issue is
in the client’s multiplexing path. Reproducible by running any playbook
with become: yes on multiple Linux hosts. This regression prevents
Ansible from detecting the BECOME-SUCCESS marker over a multiplexed
connection, causing privilege escalation tasks to hang and fail.

If any other info is needed just let me know.
