Abstract
SSH is a widely used application that provides secure remote login. It uses strong cryptography to provide authentication and condentiality. The IETF SecSH working group is developing SSH v2, an improved SSH protocol that xes cryptographic and design aws in the SSH v1 protocol. SSH v2 compatible server software is widespread. Recently discovered security aws make it critically important to nd vulnerable SSH servers and update them. In this paper, we describe a method to determine with good precision how many servers supporting the various protocol versions have been deployed on the net. We describe the design and implementation of ScanSSH, a scanner that probes SSH servers for their software version, and discuss the results of scanning the Internet and our local networks for several months.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
