ssh> ?
Commands:
      -L[bind_address:]port:host:hostport    Request local forward
      -R[bind_address:]port:host:hostport    Request remote forward
      -D[bind_address:]port                  Request dynamic forward
      -KL[bind_address:]port                 Cancel local forward
      -KR[bind_address:]port                 Cancel remote forward
      -KD[bind_address:]port                 Cancel dynamic forward

Local forward

ssh -L XXXX:WEBISTE.FR:443 SSH_SERVER -i id_rsa -l USER
  • XXX: local port where the port 443 will be reachable
  • WEBSITE.FR: website i wanna access to
  • 443: port the website is listening to
  • USER: SSH user

We can now doing the following to get access WEBSITE.FR:443 through SSH tunnel:

curl https://localhost:XXXX

Or i can add into /etc/hosts:

W.X.Y.Z     WEBSITE.FR

And I can now do:

curl https://WEBSITE.FR:XXXX

Cancel Remote port:

~C
-KL [LISTENING PORT]

ssh -R XXXX:127.0.0.1:1111 SSH_SERVER -i id_rsa -l USER
  • Attacker box ncat -nlvp 1111
  • victime box echo plop | nc 127.0.0.1 XXXX
