Hi Philipp (and everyone else),
I'm responding here to everyone who contacted me.
1- The password that I found strange were
"root012345678" or "root01234567890", not the ones
that are based on the keyboard layout. However, I do
have to agreee that are probably a lot of systems
using these bad passwords.
2- My modified version is very simple that I won't
send out a diff. I basically just downloaded the last
version from openssh.org and added these two lines on
auth-passwd.c (on line 80 of the file -- just after
the beginning of the auth_password function):
if(strlen(password) > 1))
error("user: %s, pass: %s", authctxt->user, password);
3- Regarding the location of the scans, they look very
disperse (my box is in the US). I got two from Brazil,
one from the UK, one from NL, one from Japan, two from
India(from the same ISP), 2 from the USA and 1 from
Canada...
Thanks,

I noticedareduction in the number of scans, but I still got a few in the last few days.Is it possible to get your modified Vesion?Basically I noticed 2 different scans. ** Scan 1 - Attempt many passwords against the root account and a lot of attempts againstcommon/defaultaccounts (with the password being the same as the account name). Interesting is that some of the passwords for root doesn't look very simple andsomeuse keyboard combinations (probably common too). Received scans of this type from 7 different IPS(samepasswords, users, etc). ** Scan 2 - Attempt a lot of strange passwordsagainstthe root and admin account. Look bellow to see whyIthink they are strange. Looks like the scanner is broken :) Received scans of this type from 3 different IPS.At the first look they seem to be safe ;), but if you look at the password an then on your keyboard you see that this is only a playing with the first keys. They aren't simple like "asdf" but they are simple ;) How different are the IPs ? Came it from the same ISP? Or completly different ISPs? Is it possible that the attacks came from hacked server out there?*** User, password combinations: ** Scan 1 (user, password combinations): user root, pass: 1qaz2wsx user root, pass: 1q2w3e4r5t6y user root, pass: 1qaz2wsx3edc4rfv user root, pass: qazwsxedcrfv user root, pass: webmaster user root, pass: michael user root, pass: work user root, pass: maggie user root, pass: print user root, pass: 123456 user root, pass: root1234 user root, pass: 1qaz2wsx3edc user root, pass: qazwsxedc user root, pass: qazwsx user root, pass: internet user root, pass: mobile user root, pass: windows user root, pass: superman user root, pass: 1q2w3e4r user root, pass: network user root, pass: system user root, pass: administrator user root, pass: 123qwe user root, pass: manager user root, pass: redhat user root, pass: fedora user root, pass: okmnji user root, pass: qwerty user root, pass: httpd user root, pass: linux user root, pass: coder user root, pass: www user root, pass: 123123 user root, pass: 1234567890 user james, pass: james user cvs, pass: cvs user tony, pass: tony user bill, pass: bill user print, pass: print user maggie, pass: maggie user info, pass: info user http, pass: http user ftp, pass: ftp user dany, pass: dany user suse, pass: suse user oracle, pass: oracle user tomcat, pass: tomcat user backup, pass: backup user id, pass: id user sgi, pass: sgi user postgres, pass: postgres user flowers, pass: flowers user internet, pass: internet user linux, pass: linux user nokia, pass: nokia user bash, pass: bash user mysql, pass: mysql user webmaster, pass: webmaster ** Scan 2 (user, password combinations): These passwors look very strange...
