[BUG] salt-ssh file.recurse, file.copy broken on Debian 13 #68267
Description
Description
Using salt ssh file.recurse, file.copy recipes on Debian 13 target system leads to errors related to inability to copy files/directories. On other Debian(11,12) versions and Ubuntu 22/24 the same examples work fine.
Setup
We use 3007.2-3007.6 salt-ssh installed on ubuntu 24.04 in Docker. Target system - Debian 13 LXD container or Debian 13 cloud KVM VM.
We also tried to apply patches: #67789, #67788 - but it doesn't changing anything except suppressing some errors in salt-call.log.
Steps to Reproduce the behavior
We have a directory that we want to copy to the target system. After applying the recipe, a strange error occurred: some characters in the source were deleted.

Expected behavior
Files are copied to target system
Additional info
On target system I see /root/salt/salt_state.tgz file containing valid set of copied files.
Tracing/debugging do not show any useful info about bug.
