    @camthaman This is exactly why we built Ruby Security — SSH vulnerabilities are one of the first things she scans for. CVE-2018-15473 alone can expose your server to exactly this. A full scan would’ve caught it before they got in. $99 next time. http://build-a-i.org/ruby-security

    Post summary

    The post advertises the Ruby Security scanning tool, noting that CVE‑2018‑15473 is an SSH vulnerability that could expose a server, but it provides no PoC, exploit, patch, or technical details.
