Overview ¶
Package ssh implements an SSH client and server.
SSH is a transport security protocol, an authentication protocol and a family of application protocols. The most typical application level protocol is a remote shell and this is specifically implemented. However, the multiplexed nature of SSH is exposed to users that wish to support others.
An SSH server is represented by a ServerConfig, which holds certificate details and handles authentication of ServerConns.
config := new(ssh.ServerConfig) config.PubKeyCallback = pubKeyAuth config.PasswordCallback = passwordAuth pemBytes, err := ioutil.ReadFile("id_rsa") if err != nil { panic("Failed to load private key") } err = config.SetRSAPrivateKey(pemBytes) if err != nil { panic("Failed to parse private key") }
Once a ServerConfig has been configured, connections can be accepted.
listener := Listen("tcp", "0.0.0.0:2022", config) sConn, err := listener.Accept() if err != nil { panic("failed to accept incoming connection") } if err := sConn.Handshake(conn); err != nil { panic("failed to handshake") }
An SSH connection multiplexes several channels, which must be accepted themselves:
for { channel, err := sConn.Accept() if err != nil { panic("error from Accept") } ... }
Accept reads from the connection, demultiplexes packets to their corresponding channels and returns when a new channel request is seen. Some goroutine must always be calling Accept; otherwise no messages will be forwarded to the channels.
Channels have a type, depending on the application level protocol intended. In the case of a shell, the type is "session" and ServerShell may be used to present a simple terminal interface.
if channel.ChannelType() != "session" { channel.Reject(UnknownChannelType, "unknown channel type") return } channel.Accept() term := terminal.NewTerminal(channel, "> ") serverTerm := &ssh.ServerTerminal{ Term: term, Channel: channel, } go func() { defer channel.Close() for { line, err := serverTerm.ReadLine() if err != nil { break } println(line) } return }()
To authenticate with the remote server you must pass at least one implementation of ClientAuth via the Auth field in ClientConfig.
// password implements the ClientPassword interface type password string func (p password) Password(user string) (string, error) { return string(p), nil } config := &ssh.ClientConfig { User: "username", Auth: []ClientAuth { // ClientAuthPassword wraps a ClientPassword implementation // in a type that implements ClientAuth. ClientAuthPassword(password("yourpassword")), } }
An SSH client is represented with a ClientConn. Currently only the "password" authentication method is supported.
config := &ClientConfig{ User: "username", Auth: []ClientAuth{ ... }, } client, err := Dial("yourserver.com:22", config)
Each ClientConn can support multiple interactive sessions, represented by a Session.
session, err := client.NewSession()
Once a Session is created, you can execute a single command on the remote side using the Exec method.
b := bytes.NewBuffer() session.Stdin = b if err := session.Run("/usr/bin/whoami"); err != nil { panic("Failed to exec: " + err.String()) } fmt.Println(bytes.String()) session.Close()

Types ¶
type Channel ¶
type Channel interface { // Accept accepts the channel creation request. Accept() error // Reject rejects the channel creation request. After calling this, no // other methods on the Channel may be called. If they are then the // peer is likely to signal a protocol error and drop the connection. Reject(reason RejectionReason, message string) error // Read may return a ChannelRequest as an error. Read(data []byte) (int, error) Write(data []byte) (int, error) Close() error // AckRequest either sends an ack or nack to the channel request. AckRequest(ok bool) error // ChannelType returns the type of the channel, as supplied by the // client. ChannelType() string // ExtraData returns the arbitary payload for this channel, as supplied // by the client. This data is specific to the channel type. ExtraData() []byte }
A Channel is an ordered, reliable, duplex stream that is multiplexed over an SSH connection.
type ChannelRequest ¶
ChannelRequest represents a request sent on a channel, outside of the normal stream of bytes. It may result from calling Read on a Channel.
func (ChannelRequest) Error ¶
func (c ChannelRequest) Error() string

Auth []ClientAuth // Cryptographic-related configuration. Crypto CryptoConfig }
A ClientConfig structure is used to configure a ClientConn. After one has been passed to an SSH function it must not be modified.
type ClientConn ¶
type ClientConn struct {

func (*ClientConn) Dial ¶
func (c *ClientConn) Dial(n, addr string) (net.Conn, error)
Dial initiates a connection to the addr from the remote host. addr is resolved using net.ResolveTCPAddr before connection. This could allow an observer to observe the DNS name of the remote host. Consider using ssh.DialTCP to avoid this.
func (*ClientConn) DialTCP ¶
DialTCP connects to the remote address raddr on the network net, which must be "tcp", "tcp4", or "tcp6". If laddr is not nil, it is used as the local address for the connection.

type ServerConfig struct { // Rand provides the source of entropy for key exchange. If Rand is // nil, the cryptographic random reader in package crypto/rand will // be used. Rand io.Reader // NoClientAuth is true if clients are allowed to connect without // authenticating. NoClientAuth bool // PasswordCallback, if non-nil, is called when a user attempts to // authenticate using a password. It may be called concurrently from // several goroutines. PasswordCallback func(conn *ServerConn, user, password string) bool // PublicKeyCallback, if non-nil, is called when a client attempts public // key authentication.

func (*ServerConfig) SetRSAPrivateKey ¶
func (s *ServerConfig) SetRSAPrivateKey(pemBytes []byte) error
SetRSAPrivateKey sets the private key for a Server. A Server must have a private key configured in order to accept connections. The private key must be in the form of a PEM encoded, PKCS#1, RSA private key. The file "id_rsa" typically contains such a key.
type ServerConn ¶
type ServerConn struct { // User holds the successfully authenticated user name. // It is empty if no authentication is used. It is populated before // any authentication callback is called and not assigned to after that. User string // contains filtered or unexported fields }

Close closes the channel. This does not close the underlying connection.
func (*Session) RequestPty ¶
RequestPty requests the association of a pty with the session on the remote host.
func (*Session) Run ¶
Run runs cmd on the remote host. Typically, the remote server passes cmd to the shell for interpretation. A Session only accepts one call to Run, Start or Shell.
The returned error is nil if the command runs, has no problems copying stdin, stdout, and stderr, and exits with a zero exit status.
If the command fails to run or doesn't complete successfully, the error is of type *ExitError. Other error types may be returned for I/O problems.

Start runs cmd on the remote host. Typically, the remote server passes cmd to the shell for interpretation. A Session only accepts one call to Run, Start or Shell.
func (*Session) StderrPipe ¶
StderrPipe returns a pipe that will be connected to the remote command's standard error when the command starts. There is a fixed amount of buffering that is shared between stdout and stderr streams. If the StderrPipe reader is not serviced fast enought it may eventually cause the remote command to block.
func (*Session) StdinPipe ¶
func (s *Session) StdinPipe() (io.WriteCloser, error)
StdinPipe returns a pipe that will be connected to the remote command's standard input when the command starts.
func (*Session) StdoutPipe ¶
StdoutPipe returns a pipe that will be connected to the remote command's standard output when the command starts. There is a fixed amount of buffering that is shared between stdout and stderr streams. If the StdoutPipe reader is not serviced fast enought it may eventually cause the remote command to block.
func (*Session) Wait ¶
Wait waits for the remote command to exit.
The returned error is nil if the command runs, has no problems copying stdin, stdout, and stderr, and exits with a zero exit status.
If the command fails to run or doesn't complete successfully, the error is of type *ExitError. Other error types may be returned for I/O problems.
