Arch is not vulnerable to this attack vector. Fedora Rawhide, OpenSUSE Tumbleweed and Debian Testing are.

Notice normal distros aren't affected

tf is a normal distro?

Distros that have some sort of testing before hitting users. Arch also had the issue of killing Intel laptop displays not to long ago as well.

Maybe using the term "normal distro" is a bit of a stretch but my point is that testing is good.

Arch has regular mirrors and testing mirrors, most users use the regular ones.

In this context, I'm going to assume they mean "non-rolling-release"

Non betas/testing probably?
