No. Any device that implements a certain DHCP feature is vulnerable. Linux doesn’t support it, because the feature is only useful for home computing/office workstations where Linux is rarely used. And Android doesn’t support it because it inherited the Linux network stack.

WTF are you smoking? WTF is wrong with you that you think such a dumb claim would go unscrutinized? I would play Russian roulette on the chances of a random Linux installation on a random network talking DHCP.
