John The Ripper 1.7.8

John The Ripper 1.7.8: Posted Jun 24, 2011; Authored by Solar Designer | Site openwall.com; John the Ripper is a fast password cracker, currently available for many flavors of Unix, Windows, DOS, BeOS, and OpenVMS. Its primary purpose is to detect weak Unix passwords. It supports several crypt(3) password hash types commonly found on Unix systems, as well as Windows LM hashes. On top of this, many other hash types are added with contributed patches, and some are added in John the Ripper Pro.; Changes: The bitslice DES S-box expressions and code have been replaced, reducing the gate count by 17% and typically speeding up DES-based crypt(3) cracking by 13%. Support for bcrypt hashes of passwords containing non-ASCII characters has been corrected, and a backwards compatibility feature for broken bcrypt hashes of such passwords has been added. Various other improvements have also been made.; tags | cracker; systems | windows, unix, beos; MD5 | 0bd21b4c430b114f81db0bf952db4a71; Download | Favorite | Comments (0)
