SSHamble is a Go-based research and scanning tool for probing SSH server implementations. It enumerates SSH capabilities and tests for authentication exposures, pre-auth state transitions, timing analysis, and post-session enumeration attacks.
Use cases
- scan a network range for exposed SSH services
- test SSH servers for authentication vulnerabilities
- analyze SSH pre-authentication state transitions
- perform SSH authentication timing analysis
- enumerate users via post-session attacks
- check SSH keys against the badkeys blocklist
When to choose
- auditing SSH exposure across a network
- security research on SSH implementations
- checking for compromised keys via badkeys
When to avoid
- you need a hardened production SSH server rather than a testing tool
- you need a full vulnerability scanner beyond SSH
