On a server, you have your private SSH key, and someone else adds an
infected public SSH key to authorized_keys. By induction, your key is no
longer trustworthy, since someone could have connected to your server
via the untrustworthy key.

As I understand it, this is the problem with "vulnerable by induction".
I could be wrong, of course.

Cheers,
Dave.
