- SSHamble: An Open Source Tool for Testing the SSH Protocol -

RunZero has introduced a new tool called SSHamble, designed to test SSH protocol implementations for vulnerabilities and configuration errors. SSH is widely used in network devices, servers, and applications, but different implementations can have unique issues. SSHamble was created to simulate potential attacks and identify vulnerabilities such as unauthorized access and information leaks.

RunZero has discovered a significant number of vulnerabilities in various SSH implementations that previously went unnoticed due to the lack of deep testing tools. SSHamble allows you to test various aspects of SSH protocol security, including environment management, signal handling, and port forwarding.

The tool provides an interactive shell for accessing SSH requests in a post-session environment, making security testing easier. RunZero hopes that SSHamble will help improve the security of SSH protocols and protect systems from potential attacks.
