This test was created when I worked with CVE-2002-20001 vulnerability. The vulnerability is about diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256 key exchange algorithm with high computational complexity which is using long exponents that arguably make certain calculations unnecessarily expensive. To test the issue I created small bash script ddosssh.sh to simulate DDoS attack on ssh server using different key exchange… Read More »
