Someone might have rootkitted your system.  I've seen the same thing
happen to a box at Inter.Net a few months before I left employment
there.  There are rootkits that place a trojaned SSHv1 daemon that has a
backdoor.  This sshd is placed in /usr/local/sbin and is chattr'ed to
readonly so not even root can replace it.  Chances are even chattr and
lsattr have been doctored to prevent you from fixing the damage.  It's
time to look more carefully at the system logs to see what has happened
in recent days and then backup any significant data then reinstall your
system.
