scorpiox-sshpass 🐚 shell

Description

scorpiox-sshpass is an SSH wrapper that feeds passwords through a PTY (pseudo-terminal) to automate SSH authentication. Designed for home lab environments, it eliminates the need for interactive password prompts when scripting SSH connections. It spawns a child SSH process with a PTY and intercepts the password prompt to inject credentials automatically.

Flags & Options

# Syntax
scorpiox-sshpass <password> ssh [ssh-options] user@host
scorpiox-sshpass <password> scp [scp-options] source destination

Usage Examples

# Connect to a server with password authentication
scorpiox-sshpass "myP@ssw0rd" ssh admin@192.168.1.50

# Connect on a custom port
scorpiox-sshpass "myP@ssw0rd" ssh -p 2222 admin@192.168.1.50

# Disable host key checking (first-time lab setup)
scorpiox-sshpass "myP@ssw0rd" ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no admin@192.168.1.50

# Upload a file to a remote server
scorpiox-sshpass "myP@ssw0rd" scp ./config.yaml admin@192.168.1.50:/etc/app/

# Download a log file from a remote server
scorpiox-sshpass "myP@ssw0rd" scp admin@192.168.1.50:/var/log/app.log ./

# Recursive directory upload
scorpiox-sshpass "myP@ssw0rd" scp -r ./deploy/ admin@192.168.1.50:/opt/app/

#!/bin/bash
# Deploy to multiple hosts in a home lab
HOSTS="192.168.1.50 192.168.1.51 192.168.1.52"
PASS="labP@ss123"
for HOST in $HOSTS; do
    echo "Deploying to $HOST..."
    scorpiox-sshpass "$PASS" scp ./app.bin admin@$HOST:/usr/local/bin/

done

# Run a remote command and capture output
