Ooo just that, forgot that...

But still the question remains, how does it prevent the exploit? Doesn't the
exploit (root command) get executed immidiately when TLS negotiation is
done?

understand is that there is exploit in the SNI of the TLS negotiation, thus
the whole connect attempt must be rejected right?

The connect with Starttls is unencrypted, and later upgraded, so you
need to check it later, when its done for sure.
