Anxious to get your Linux server SSH access locked down? Jack Wallen shows you one more step you can take--one that will only take seconds.

A peer-to-peer botnet called FritzFrog has hopped onto the scene, and researchers said it has been actively breaching SSH servers since January. SSH servers are pieces of software found in routers and IoT devices, among other machines, and they use the secure shell protocol to accept connections from remote computers.

Cybersecurity researchers today took the wraps off a sophisticated, multi-functional peer-to-peer botnet written in Golang that has been actively targeting SSH servers since January 2020. Called "FritzFrog," the modular, multi-threaded and file-less botnet has breached more than 500 servers to date, infecting well-known universities in the US and Europe, and a railway company, according to a report released by Guardicore Labs today.

One of Britain's most powerful academic supercomputers has fallen victim to a "Security exploitation" of its login nodes, forcing the rewriting of all user passwords and SSH keys. Sysadmins warned ARCHER users that their SSH keys may have been compromised as a result of the apparent attack, advising them to "Change passwords and SSH keys on any other systems which you share your ARCHER credentials with".
