Bug Description
Vulnerable ssh keys expose systems to attack that don't have the openssl PRNG vulnerability. The vulnerable key scanning tools such as ssh-vulnkey need to be backported to supported releases.
Futher, it would be helpful to make a statically compiled version downloadable via http so non debian/ubuntu administrators can scan their systems' authorized_keys and other files for vulnerable keys introduced by debian/ubuntu users.
