The server is running Red Hat 7.0. With all packages up to date. The
following daemons are running:  wu-ftpd, apache, telnet, openssh, named
I never access the system via telnet, it is there just for backup
purpose.


I guess its the wu-ftpd exploit that lead to root access not ssh, probably they checked several exploits until one worked.
