show moreSystematic credential brute-force attack using Go-based SSH client against weak, default credentials (guest, test, user). 32 username/password combinations attempted across 38 sessions over 15 minutes. Attacker achieved successful authentication and executed reconnaissance commands: disabled immutable attributes on shell configuration files (.bashrc, .zshrc) via chattr, modified PATH environment variable, and gathered system information (OS type, version, hostname, architecture, uptime) via uname and /proc/uptime. The chattr -i removal indicates preparation for persistence via shell rc file modification. Attack demonstrates opportunistic compromise targeting IoT devices or systems with default credentials. No malware downloads, port forwarding, or lateral movement observed in captured activity.

show moreCredential brute-force attack via Go SSH client. Cycled 18 weak creds (numeric sequences: 000000, 111111, 123456789; variants: password, password1, P@ssw0rd; defaults: ubuntu/ubuntu) targeting admin/ubuntu accounts across 20 sessions in 14 min. All auth attempts failed. Post-failed recon cmds executed: hostname, uname (kernel/arch), /proc/uptime, PATH enumeration. Consistent with automated Go-based SSH scanning tool or distributed botnet. No payloads dl'd, no persistence, no lateral movement. Opportunistic mass scanning pattern, low sophistication, typical of credential enumeration operations. Recommend firewall block and SSH rate-limiting to prevent further brute-force attempts.

show moreCredential brute-force attack using SSH-2.0-Go client. Attacker attempted 10 distinct weak passwords against root account across 12 sessions: 111111, 123123, 12345, 123456, 12345678, 123456789, P@ssw0rd, admin, password1, qwerty. Upon successful authentication, executed system reconnaissance commands to gather OS details (uname -s -v -n -m), architecture (uname -m), and uptime information. Attacker modified PATH environment variable to prioritize local sbin/bin directories, typical preparation for executing malicious binaries or establishing persistence. No malware downloads, lateral movement, or persistence mechanisms were observed during the 11-minute attack window. Attack pattern consistent with automated credential enumeration against exposed SSH services, likely part of broader scanning campaign targeting internet-facing systems.
