I second the fail2ban suggestion.
It's a nice program that will probably do what you want.

A package I just recently found and have installed on a couple of systems is
fail2ban which has a bunch of popular rule sets included and is easily
expandable by the user.  Basically it parses your systems logs and then
performas ip blocks with iptables based on your specifications.  It has ssh
buffer overrun pertection built-in by default.  It also has others you can
easily enable.  There's a debian package so I imagine there are packages
available for other distro's as well.
