ssh-mitm VS pwntools

SSH MITM - Intercept SSH connections with a proxy; all plaintext passwords and sessions are logged to disk.

Hello,

at my university, we are learning, how to use ssh for server administration.

We learned, that ssh is secure, but there are some tools, which allows man in the middle attacks on ssh.

I found following tools:

* https://github.com/jtesta/ssh-mitm - most starred, but uses an outdated OpenSSH version and it's complicated to setup :-(

The Pwntools library stands out as a sophisticated toolset for CTF enthusiasts and security researchers. It aids in creating and executing shellcode, designing payloads, and interacting with remote processes. For instance, the context feature allows developers to switch between different architectures effortlessly, while the 'tube' module streamlines the communication between local and remote processes. And it's not just limited to Linux; the library has support for various platforms including Windows, making it versatile and comprehensive.

you have to remove the unicorn dependency from the setup.py because doesn't support m1 git clone https://github.com/Gallopsled/pwntools cd pwntools sed -i'' '/unicorn/d' setup.py pip install --upgrade .

Pwntools - CTF Framework for writing exploits.

Pwntools - Rapid exploit development framework built for use in CTFs.

Pwntools is a thing.

One library that I may eventually make which will probably not be an officially maintained library but which I will maintain myself will be a partial or full port of pwntools (a library written in Python for CTFs) to Calypso. For more information on CTFs, atan made a pretty cool post about them:

Scapy is great if you're attacking low level networking protocol stacks like TCP/IP or UDP. In that case, you may be modifying packet headers and such. Otherwise, it's much easier to just use the Python socket module and craft your custom payload in Python. Even better is the pwntools module.
