Back in 2016, the BlackEnergy cybercriminals group that targeted the Ukrainian electric utilities and media, used a backdoored SSH server called Dropbear. According to the ESET researchers, the attackers deployed a variant of this software on compromised machines that had been pre-configured to accept a hard-coded password and key for SSH.

The SSH, Secure Shell, is a remote management protocol through which users can both modify and control their remote servers on the Internet. It was created to replace Telnet, an unencrypted protocol and therefore did not offer any security to users.
Instead, SSH makes use of the most innovative cryptography techniques with the clear objective that all communications made between users and remote servers are secure. It has a tool that allows the remote user to authenticate to exit later back to the users.
It is worth noting that users of the Linux and macOS operating systems can implement the SSH protocol on their remote servers very easily through the terminal. Of course, Windows users can also do it, although the procedure is different.

Dropbear is a small SSH server using in Linux distributions. It is an open source software. Dropbear SSH completely runs with SSH version 2 protocol, it never supports SSH version 1. Dropbear is an advanced version of open SSH, it only uses low memory and processor resources.

The stunnel program is designed to work as an SSL encryption wrapper between remote client and local (inetd-startable) or remote servers. It can be used to add SSL functionality to commonly used inetd daemons like POP2, POP3, and IMAP servers without any changes in the programs' code. It will negotiate an SSL connection using the OpenSSL or SSLeay libraries.

This article provides a short overview of SSH on Alpine Linux.

Also see Secure Shell (Wikipedia).

Note: This article describes two popular SSH implementations: OpenSSH and Dropbear. Either can be installed using the setup-sshd script, or by following the below instructions.

OpenSSH is a popular SSH implementation for remote encrypted login to a machine. OpenSSH defines sshd as the daemon, and ssh as the client program.

The openssh package provides OpenSSH on Alpine Linux.

Installation

Install the openssh package:

apk add openssh

Note: To use the ACF-frontend for openssh, install acf-openssh instead (assuming that you have the setup-acf script).

Also see Alpine Linux package management .

Service commands

Key

Enable the sshd service so that it starts at boot:

rc-update add sshd

List services to verify sshd is enabled:

rc-status

Dropbear Ssh Client

Start the sshd service immediately and create configuration files:

/etc/init.d/sshd start

Note: If you are running from RAM, ensure you save your settings using the 'lbu ci' command as necessary. See Alpine local backup.

Also see Alpine Linux Init System.

Fine tuning

You may wish to change the default configuration. This section describes some of the configuration options as examples, however it is by no means an exhaustive list. See the manual for full details.

The fine-tuning is done by editing /etc/ssh/sshd_config. Any line starting with '#' will be ignored by sshd.

Other configuration options are shown in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. The file includes comments that explain many of the options.

Firewalling and Port Changes

By default, sshd will communicate on TCP port 22.

Sometimes 22/tcp is blocked by a firewall over which you have no control. Changing the Port option to an unused port number in /etc/ssh/sshd_config may be useful in this situation.

Exploit
Note: Ensure the port you wish to use is not already in use by running netstat -lnp on the machine running sshd.

Restart sshd after making modifications to the configuration file:

/etc/init.d/sshd restart

Note: If you are running from RAM, ensure you save your settings using the 'lbu ci' command as necessary. See Alpine local backup.

Dropbear is another open source SSH implementation.Install dropbear through the Alpine setup scripts, or manually with:

apk add dropbear

Start it:

rc-service dropbear start

Dropbear Ssh Vulnerability

Add it to the default runlevel:

rc-update add dropbear

Use the following command to check all available server options:

dropbear -h

The config file is located at /etc/conf.d/dropbear

dropbear also includes an SSH client which in its simplest form can be used like this:

dbclient host.example.com

dbclient x.x.x.x

(where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the remote machine).

Use dbclient -h to see all available options.
