The following tool will scan the network for hosts using the vulnerable SSH version 3.0 that allows attackers to login to aclearcase/" target="_blank" >ccounts without prompting for a user when their password is shorter than two characters.
For more information about this vulnerability, please see our previous post:
SSH Secure Shell 3.0.0 Allows Passwordless Logons
Tool:
#!/usr/bin/perl
#
# A local SSH 3.0.0 vulnerability scanner for the
# SSH Short Password Login Vulnerability
#
# Note: You must have superuser access on the system to scan it.
#
# usage: ./ssh3.pl
# Optional: -e turn off error
# -h specify a different /etc/shadow file
# (Options must come before host name)
