v2.9.0
This release includes many new features, including granular GEX modulus tests (credit Adam Russell), support for mixed host key/CA key certificates (i.e.: RSA host keys signed by ED25519 CAs), warnings for 2048-bit moduli, and more descriptive algorithm notes. Support for 112 new algorithms were also added!
Note that this version is also available as a PyPI package (pip3 install ssh-audit
), Snap package (snap install ssh-audit
), or as a Windows executable (see below, though be aware that sometimes Windows Defender inappropriately detects it as malware!).
The full change log is:
- Dropped support for Python 3.6, as it reached EOL at the end of 2021.
- Added Ubuntu Server & Client 22.04 hardening policies.
- Removed experimental warning tag from

and--gex-test
for granular GEX modulus size tests; credit Adam Russell. - Snap packages now print more user-friendly error messages when permission errors are encountered.
- JSON 'target' field now always includes port number; credit tomatohater1337.
- JSON output now includes recommendations and CVE data.
- Mixed host key/CA key types (i.e.: RSA host keys signed with ED25519 CAs, etc.) are now properly handled.
- Warnings are now printed for 2048-bit moduli; partial credit Adam Russell.
- SHA-1 algorithms now cause failures.
- CBC mode ciphers are now warnings instead of failures.
- Generic failure/warning messages replaced with more specific reasons (i.e.: 'using weak cipher' => 'using broken RC4 cipher').
- Updated built-in policies to include missing host key size information.
- Added built-in policies for OpenSSH 8.8, 8.9, 9.0, 9.1, 9.2, and 9.3.
- Added 33 new host keys:
