--- experience ---
with ssh_brute.c from mediaservice.net who released, lately, an advisory
for OpenSSH <= 3.6.1p1 that became CAN-2003-0190
(http://lab.mediaservice.net/advisory/2003-01-openssh.txt) I decided to
write my own working exploit:
--- gossh.sh ---
#!/bin/sh
# OpenSSH <= 3.6.p1 - User Identification.
# Nicolas Couture - nc@...rmvault.net
#
# Description:
# -Tells you wether or not a user exist on
# a distant server running OpenSSH.
#
# Usage:
# -You NEED to have the host's public key
# before executing this script.
#
#=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=#
# Fact Sheet: #
# o It is really accurate against #
# redhat boxes. #
# o Linux boxes running grsecurity #
# has 10 seconds delay on both #
# valid AND invalid user login #
# attempts. #
# o *BSD boxes are not vulnerables and #
# always has 10 seconds delay like #
# Linux-Grsec + network protection #
# #
#=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=#

# ; Script is functional. #

# Let the user know how we work.

Interesting things you can find with this script...

linux doesn't exist on kernel.org.

This is a sign that the finger daemon has been hacked by some kernel.org
people :)
