True.

I'd say it would either be reassuring or chilling, depending on the answer
received.  Unfortunately, in the absence of any information about this at all,
one could assume that everyone's ssh logins are at risk on all RHEL boxes (as
I'm pretty sure that's what the Fedora update servers run on) or there is a
vulnerability in the ssh keyrings, or who-knows-what else.

Nobody can take any protective measures short of switching everything to
another distribution entirely without that sort of information in hand.  Are
protective measures even required?  We don't know that either.
