Re: Decrypting an ssh session knowing the private key?



Public/private keys are only used for authentication on connection
start. During comunication the data is encripted with other key.


2006/10/5, Jeff Sadowski <jeff.sadowski@xxxxxxxxx>:
I would like to write a program that could deycrypt ssh communication
by using the private key of the server computer. This should be
possable right? And I should be able to use libraries the openssh has
already writen. In fact the majority of the code should already be
writen right? I should just need to send a packet with the private key
to a function right?
