sshpass

Non-interactive SSH with a password (spraying, legacy algorithms).

Feeds a password to ssh non-interactively, handy to automate access and for spraying scripts. It also lets you slip in options that enable legacy algorithms (KexAlgorithms, HostKeyAlgorithms) when connecting to old SSH servers.
