historically there has existed buggy implementations of SSH

Although running against a reasonably modern client-servers pair (SSH
v.2) should be safe, keys are still a good thing.

To expand on Jon's statement, note that to find a pre-v.2
implementation, you need to set the controls on the way-back machine to
something like 15 years ago. You would have to put some effort into
find any examples being used in the field today.
