The good news is there's already a patch. The bad news is that the fix isn't available for all Linux distributions yet. Here's what you can do in the meantime.

      But careful not to update too fast and fall on the supply chain attack of the week.

        That’s difficult. Openssh is coded in C, not js.

        Pretty sure that was in the bible.

        Proverbs 25:16 - If you find honey, eat just enough - too much of it, and you will vomit.

        Could update that to be: If you find updates, apply them - too soon though, and you will vomit your credentials.
