Steps to reproduce

Hi all,

I did a quick check on the issues, but didn't find any issues of recent versions. To quickly sketch, I use the openSSH client on Windows to connect to an Ubuntu 22.04.1. Because the server was updated recently, I had issues with the default OpenSSH version installed via Windows store. I updated to the 8.9.1.0 via the msi installer:

((Get-Item (Get-Command sshd).Source).VersionInfo.FileVersion)
8.9.1.0

Everything worked peachy for about 8 days. And just like that, today it stopped working. When I try to do the same connection that worked just yesterday, now the ssh-agent seems to be not functioning anymore:

debug2: get_agent_identities: ssh_agent_bind_hostkey: communication with agent failed
debug1: get_agent_identities: ssh_fetch_identitylist: communication with agent failed

When I check my keys with ssh-add -l, they are actually listed correctly.

Anyone else running into this issue? Feel free to close or link if it's a duplicate obviously :)

A work around would also be much appreciated, as openSSH and windows terminal are my daily drivers at work :)

Expected behavior

keys are auto loaded in ssh-agent
connecting to the remote server works flawlessly

Actual behavior

keys seem to be loaded in ssh-agent
connection towards server is made, but debug shows communication with agent fails
server refuses connection because no correct key is given
