Not unusual.  Cobalt's have a history of being notoriously insecure.  
If you're not using third party packages, or rolling your own updates, 
your machine will be hacked sooner or later; Sun release very few 
package updates these days.  Which sshd package were you using?  What 
third party packages were you using?

Could even be a known exploit with the GUI.
