Vulnerable Configurations
Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)
Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)
- Signature Spoofing by Key Recreation An attacker obtains an authoritative or reputable signer's private signature key by exploiting a cryptographic weakness in the signature algorithm or pseudorandom number generation and then uses this key to forge signatures from the original signer to mislead a victim into performing actions that benefit the attacker.

NASL family Misc. NASL id SSH_HARDCODED_KEYS.NASL description The remote host is running a service that is using a publicly known SSH private key. An attacker may use this key to decrypt intercepted traffic between users and the device. A remote attacker can also perform a man-in-the-middle attack in order to gain access to the system or modify data in transit. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 121007 published 2019-01-08 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/121007 title SSH Known Hard Coded Private Keys NASL family Misc.
