show moreSSH brute force using libssh 0.9.6. Attacker tried creds: 345gs5662d34/345gs5662d34, ubuntu/3245gs5662d34, ubuntu/qwe. Gained access with at least one pair. Post-auth chain: removed .ssh contents, recreated .ssh folder, injected RSA pubkey AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABJQAAAQEArDp4cun2lhr4KUhBGE7VvAcwdli2a8dbnrTOrbMz1+5O73fcBOx8NVbUT0bUanUV9tJ2/9p7+vD0EpZ3Tz/+0kX34uAx1RV/75GVOmNx+9EuWOnvNoaJe0QXx into authorized_keys for persistence. Attempted chattr -ia on .ssh dir to prevent key removal/modification by legitimate users or security tools. Attacker demonstrated SSH security knowledge and employed defensive measures against credential revocation. Pattern-based creds suggest automated campaign.
