Modular brute force tool written in Python, for very fast password spraying SSH, and FTP and in the near future other network services.

COMING SOON: SMB, HTTP(s) POST, HTTP(s) GET, HTTP BASIC AUTH Thanks to @0dayctf, Rondons, Enigma, and 001 for testing and contributing

Installation:

cd /opt
git clone https://github.com/Cerbrutus-BruteForcer/cerbrutus

Usage:

python3 /opt/cerbrutus/cerbrutus.py --help
usage: cerbrutus.py [-h] -U USERS -P PASSWORDS [-p PORT] [-t THREADS] [-q [QUIET [QUIET ...]]] Host Service

Python based network brute forcing tool!

positional arguments:
Host The host to connect to - in IP or VHOST/Domain Name form
Service The service to brute force (currently implemented 'SSH')

optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-U USERS, --users USERS
Either a single user, or the path to the file of users you wish to use
-P PASSWORDS, --passwords PASSWORDS
Either a single password, or the path to the password list you wish to use
-p PORT, --port PORT The port you wish to target (only required if running on a non standard port)
-t THREADS, --threads THREADS
Number of threads to use
-q [QUIET [QUIET ...]], --quiet [QUIET [QUIET ...]]

Uses a custom implementation of paramiko to overcome a few minor issues with implementing it for ssh brute forcing. – https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/
