CVE-2025-32433 – Erlang/OTP SSH vulnerability allowing pre-auth RCE## ✅ Result
The server responded to an **SSH message ID 80 (0x50)** — which is reserved for post-auth. This proves the server accepts invalid messages during the pre-auth phase, indicating **vulnerable behavior as defined in CVE-2025-32433**.

## 📖 Research Summary
I built this lab after studying Erlang/OTP and the CVE from various trusted sources.
**Erlang/OTP** is a powerful environment originally developed by Ericsson to build scalable and fault-tolerant distributed systems. It includes its own **SSH server implementation**. The SSH module inside Erlang/OTP is vulnerable to **unauthenticated remote code execution (RCE)** due to incorrect handling of **SSH message types ≥ 80 during the pre-auth phase**.
Instead of rejecting these invalid messages, the server processes them — which allows an attacker to craft malicious messages and potentially gain unauthorized code execution access.

### 🔍 Key Things I Learned
- **Erlang/OTP SSH** allows secure shell/file access within Erlang systems
- **Message ID 80+** is reserved for post-authentication but can be abused pre-auth
- **Detection**: Suricata or NIDS can spot “SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST” with “exec” commands
- **Affected Versions**:
- OTP-27.3.2 and below
- OTP-26.2.5.10 and below
- OTP-25.3.2.19 and below
- **Patched Versions**:
- OTP-27.3.3
- OTP-26.2.5.11
- OTP-25.3.2.20
