It's probably generated by your SSH server, which means nobody here
can tell you how to suppress it unless they at least know which
server it is.

I can tell you that I mostly use OpenSSH servers, and I see an
environment display looking much like that but only when I enable
debugging in the server. Is it possible that your server is running
in debug mode?
