Torjus Håkestad d655968216 feat: add SQLite storage for login attempts and sessions
Adds persistent storage using modernc.org/sqlite (pure Go). Login
attempts are deduplicated by (username, password, ip) with counts.
Sessions and session logs are tracked with UUID IDs. Includes embedded
SQL migrations, configurable retention with background pruning, and
an in-memory store for tests.

# Oubliette
An SSH honeypot that logs login attempts, presents fake shells to "successful" logins, and tries to detect when a real human is poking around.
Named after the medieval dungeon - a place you throw people into and forget about them.
## Status
Early development. See `PLAN.md` for the roadmap.
## Usage
### Build
```sh
# With Nix
nix build
# With Go
nix develop -c go build ./cmd/oubliette
```
### Configure
Copy and edit the example config:
```sh
cp oubliette.toml.example oubliette.toml
```
Key settings:
- `ssh.listen_addr` — listen address (default `:2222`)
- `ssh.host_key_path` — Ed25519 host key, auto-generated if missing
- `auth.accept_after` — accept login after N failures per IP (default `10`)
- `auth.credential_ttl` — how long to remember accepted credentials (default `24h`)
- `auth.static_credentials` — always-accepted username/password pairs
- `storage.db_path` — SQLite database path (default `oubliette.db`)
- `storage.retention_days` — auto-prune records older than N days (default `90`)
- `storage.retention_interval` — how often to run retention (default `1h`)
### Run
```sh
./oubliette -config oubliette.toml
```
Test with:
```sh
ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -p 2222 root@localhost
```
### NixOS Module
Add the flake as an input and enable the service:
```nix
{
services.oubliette = {
enable = true;
package = inputs.oubliette.packages.${system}.default;
settings = {
ssh.listen_addr = ":2222";
auth.accept_after = 10;
auth.static_credentials = [
{ username = "root"; password = "toor"; }
];
};
};
}
```
Alternatively, use `configFile` to pass a pre-written TOML file instead of `settings`.
