Hi everyone, Aaila here
I built SSH Secure Audit because I kept seeing Linux servers running outdated OpenSSH versions, weak ciphers, and misconfigured sshd settings without anyone realizing the risks. With recent vulnerabilities like CVE-2024-6387, even one overlooked setting can expose an entire system.
I wanted a tool that:
scans OpenSSH versions against known CVEs
flags deprecated ciphers and risky authentication methods
checks sshd configuration for weak defaults
produces a clean, simple report any admin can understand
works instantly without installing heavy dependencies
The goal was to create something lightweight and practical — the kind of tool I personally wished existed when auditing servers.
If you test it, I’d really appreciate your feedback, suggestions, or improvements.
Thanks for checking it out and supporting the project!
