Standard disclaimer applies, Don't be stupid and do things that will get you put in jail etc.

Ok as the name implies brutessh.py is a python based brute force tool for ssh
So what it does is takes target data on the command line and uses a dictionary to try and brute ssh. Pretty simple.

Grab a shell
-------------------------------------CODE------------------------------------------------------------------

root@bt:/pentest/passwords/brutessh#

-------------------------------------CODE----------------------------------------------------------------
Check out the readme for more info.
-------------------------------------CODE----------------------------------------------------------------

root@bt:/pentest/passwords/brutessh# cat README

-------------------------------------CODE----------------------------------------------------------------
An easy and safe way to run the tool is to simply make a small dictionary in the same directory put a few words and your ssh password into the list.

Now run it.
-------------------------------------CODE----------------------------------------------------------------
root@bt:/pentest/passwords/brutessh# python brutessh.py -h localhost -u root -d dict

Of course that's not the real password!

It obviously didn't take that long, 3.35 seconds.

So there you have it. Quick, fast, and easy. Actually I don't believe it gets easier than that.
