On the first issue opened by the hacker:

> Complete compromise could have been avoided if developers were prohibited from using ForwardAgent yes or not using -A in their SSH commands. The flaws with agent forwarding are well documented.

I use agent forwarding daily and had no idea it contained well known security holes. If that's the case, why is the feature available by default?
