[WARNING] RCON Exploit - Compromising a Machine

Hi there and thanks very much for the indepth explanation of what can be done with a known rcon password on a Windows machine. I have a question, all things being the same(known rcon password), can I ask what the risks are if this is on a linux machine. Are the repercussions the same, less or more?
