AFAIK, the xz vulnerability was designed for Debian based on its workaround fixing systemd service status detection. Even if it shipped to something like Arch, the malicious code wouldn’t load.
Regresshion impacted bookworm and trixie both. Buster was too old.
With the downside of me doing an apt update and seeing that openssh-server was on 1:9.2p1-2+deb12u3 and I had no idea at a glance if this included the fix or not (qualys’s page states version 8.5p1-9.8p1 were vulnerable).
If you are running debian bookworm or trixie, you absolutely should update your openssh-server package.
We’re on a meme page. There is little difference between sarcasm and being serious here. It doesn’t matter whether OP is being fully sarcastic or fully serious, people in the comments may hold the same opinion seriously, sarcastically, or with a mixture of both. The format is irrelevant
The ssh vulnerability didn’t affect Debian because the packages were too many versions behind

Isn’t this meme format completely written in sarcasm?

The xz/ssh back door made it into Debian testing, So I felt I should wipe and reinstall.
Debian has had a rolling release for ages.
