The fun thing about regressions: these things affects you if your system is new enough that it has the behaviour reintroduced. Which means you are less likely to be hit if you are using Debian Stable (or even Oldstable) than, say, Sid (unpatched at the time of writing this comment) or Arch btw.
You're starting to understand the accidental wins in Enterprise software
My OpenMediaVault machine (based on Debian Oldstable) uses OpenSSH 8.4p1, so it's old enough not to have the bug
