my understanding is that any Debian/RPM-based Linux running sshd would become vulnerable in a year or two. The best equivalent of this exploit is the One Ring.

So the really strange thing is why they put so little effort into making this undetectable. All they needed was to make it use less time to check each login attempt.

In retrospect improving the performance would have been the smart play. But that is one part that went wrong compared to very many that went right.
