Open-source FTP and SSH Browser for Mac OS X

updated 07:55 pm EDT, Thu August 14, 2003

is an open source SFTP (SSH Secure File Transfer) and FTP browser licenced under the GPL. Cyberduck features the same intuitive interface for both FTP and SFTP browsing. Cyberduck is now Mac only, with a completly rewritten user interface using the Cocoa Framework. You can open connections to multiple servers thanks to its document based interface. A simple favorites manager allows you to store freuqently used servers.

Man in the middle attack!

Watch out for Cyberduck! I tried to connect to my local server using sftp when it prompted me that the server was not yet known and if I would accept the servers ssh fingerprint. This seemed very strange to me so I checked my servers fingerprint and it did NOT match!
Netstat shows:
tcp4 157 0 192.168.8.102.56610 vo157.neoplus.ad.ssh CLOSE_WAIT
tcp4 157 0 192.168.8.102.56609 vo157.neoplus.ad.ssh ESTABLISHED

And vo157.neoplus.ad is definitely not my server. Accepting the fingerprint would give the unknown vo157.neoplus.ad server my login and password! And they could read al traffic going back and forth.

I can no longer reproduce the strange Netstat listing. The fingerprint shown by Cyberduck is of the dsa key, the commandline tools uses the rsa version. This is what Cyberduck shows the Unknown host dialog even for servers previously accessed via the terminal.
