At a quick glance, the OP's code doesn't share sessions between
threads, so it's more likely an issue with multiple threads calling
the crypto backend. In particular libssh2_init is not thread safe,
but the OP calls this in the worker thread. Instead they should call
it once for the entire program before spawning any worker threads.
