You should never under any circumstances open administrative
interfaces including SSH on your firewall to the entire Internet.
pfSense does run sshlockout so it should be blocking those hosts after
a few failed login attempts. I would strongly recommend firewalling
off SSH to protect your firewall. If you must leave it open, at a
minimum require key authentication.

It's not an error, you have to read the logs with clog.
