Description

Can the Cisco-Enable module be updated to support SSH? Not a lot of telnet around these days and I'm working with some darn old equipment.

Research direction
Examine the current Cisco Enable module implementation (likely in hydra cisco enable.c) to understand the telnet based logic. Review other SSH enabled modules in Hydra for reference patterns. Consider using a library like libssh or implementing raw SSH. Check the issue comments for any additional suggestions or constraints.
