Hyrda Seg Faults

Trying to red team test and Hydra is segmentation faulting on a list of IP addresses I'm feeding it

~# hydra -l xxx -p xxx -M ips.txt -t 4 ssh
     Segmentation Fault

I tried apt-get remove and apt-get install but it still does the same thing.

So as a temporary sequential work-around I wrote a python script that calls it 1 record at a time and that worked

import fileinput
import subprocess
for line in fileinput.input("ips.txt"):
 x = "hydra " + line.strip() + " -l xxx -p xxx -t 4 ssh
 print(x)
 subprocess.run(x, shell=True)

Kali Hydra ssh to Cisco timing out

In Kali , I was trying to use Hydra to ssh to a Cisco device but it kept failing/timing out

root@kali:~# hydra -l Account -p Password 10.10.10.10 ssh

The fix was to install libssh-dev

root@kali:~# apt-get install libssh-dev

Then hyrda worked
