I wish this announcement included the backstory of how someone discovered this vulnerability.

Public keys are enough of a pain in the ass with PuTTY / KiTTY that I stick with password auth for my windows SSH'ing needs.

KiTTY even let's you save the passwords so you don't have to type it in, a horrible security practice no doubt, but so convenient... Perhaps more secure than the putty-gen'd ECDSA P521 keys? A tad bit ironic.
