Bug ID: 2334
Summary: Warn when weak Ciphers are used
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 6.7p1
Hardware: Other
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5
Component: ssh
Assignee: unassigned-b...@mindrot.org
Reporter: thorsten.s...@email.de
Warn the user when the SSH client or server are using weak ciphers.
This can be done by default, when using -v or on a specific
test-security parameter.
Client and Server settings should be tested.
According to
https://stribika.github.io/2015/01/04/secure-secure-shell.html
Many ciphers (but not all) are either weak or broken. By having an
automatic test in the tools we can improve the settings of the
currently used servers and clients. That would improve the average
security level in a simple anbd efficient way.
