I am trying to load a passphrase-protected private SSH key from a file using the cryptography Python module. However, I’m not exactly sure how to proceed. The following yields a Crypto.Util.Padding.PaddingError: Padding is incorrect. error… Continue reading Loading a passphrase-protected private SSH key from a file with the cryptography Python module
A set of 36-year-old vulnerabilities has been uncovered in the Secure Copy Protocol (SCP) implementation of many client applications that can be exploited by malicious servers to overwrite arbitrary files in the SCP client target directory unauthorized… Continue reading 36-Year-Old SCP Clients’ Implementation Flaws Discovered
For an ordinary user, how would I verify that a private key file was generated using reasonably secure algorithms? In response to things like allegedly insecure ssh-keygen defaults.

I’m new to Metasploit and looking for some advice on what I should be doing to port https://github.com/tintinweb/pub/tree/master/pocs/cve-2016-3115 into a Metasploit exploit module. I’ve successfully used the POC on a metaspl… Continue reading Seeking suggestions for porting my first Metasploit exploit to module
OpenSSH, a suite of networking software that allows secure communications over an unsecured network, is the most common tool for system administrators to manage rented Linux servers. And given that over one-third of public-facing internet servers run L… Continue reading Old and new OpenSSH backdoors threaten Linux servers
As I understand sshd (openssh in my case) typically does/may log the fingerprint/hash of the public key of incoming connections which are attempting to authenticate via key.
What I’m looking for is the full public key of inc… Continue reading Possible to get sshd (openssh) to log the public key of failed key based login attempts?
A four-year-old severe vulnerability has been discovered in the Secure Shell (SSH) implementation library known as Libssh that could allow anyone to completely bypass authentication and gain unfettered administrative control over a vulnerable server wi… Continue reading LibSSH Flaw Allows Hackers to Take Over Servers Without Password
Let’s be extra paranoid and assume that the SSH server my client is connected to, was “enhanced” so that every SSH client that establishes an connection with it, will be tricked into thinking that it wants to create reverse p… Continue reading Could a running SSH server somehow fool connected SSH client to create a reverse port forward?
