Bug ID: 2633
Summary: Provide hook invoked for login failures
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 7.3p1
Hardware: Other
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5
Component: sshd
Assignee: unassigned-bugs at mindrot.org
Reporter: josh at joshtriplett.org
Many different scripts exist to parse the log output of sshd and
attempt to block sources of excessive failed login attempts. Most such
scripts involve fragile, easily-misled text parsing.
Please consider adding a standard hook, configurable in sshd_config,
invoked by sshd when a login fails. That hook should receive the
source IP address for the connection, and the login type(s) attempted
and failed (not those not attempted), so that it can decide (for
instance) to have different thresholds for password attempts/failures
and key-based failures.
