On the first glance this looks like a problem which has the
following entry in a changelog from openssh-3.1p1-14:

* Thu Jun 05 2003 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin at redhat.com> 3.1p1-7

- backport patch to close timing attacks when PAM authentication is
  short-circuited by other checks

At this iime I am not absolutely sure about that.
