This PR adds
sshd_lintto the SSH subsection under "Tools to check security hardening".What it is: A zero-dependency, offline static analyzer for OpenSSH
sshd_configfiles, written in Python (stdlib only). Published on PyPI and available aspip install sshd-lint.Why it fits: The existing SSH tools in the list (
ssh-audit,CryptoLyzer) perform runtime auditing by connecting to a live SSH server.sshd_lintcomplements them by analyzing the server configuration file itself, offline — useful for CI/CD pipelines, pre-deployment review, and environments where the server isn't reachable during audit. It detects insecure directives, deprecated algorithms (with correct handling of+/-/^prefix syntax), and misconfigurations, including cumulative directive semantics andIncludedirective resolution.Repo: https://github.com/capitan0n/sshd-lint
