Online MD5 Cracking Service

Posted by timothy on from the computable-truth-is-out-there dept.

toast writes "Did you forget your password but have your /etc/shadow? If so, this site is for you. Submit a MD5 hash and within a few days you'll have an answer. Of course, once Slashdot has its way, you'll have to wait a few years for an answer.. At least now I'll always know what f3789b3c1be47758203f9e8a4d8c6a2a means.."

    Hopefully it is running BeOS as its is_computer_on_fire() call will provide at least some protection.

    Step 1: Create a service that does something which needs a password hash
    Step 2: Get a bunch of bored slashdotters to post their password hashes, and log their IPs
    Step 3: Crack the hashes, keep the passwords
    Step 4: h4xx0r!

    (I'm glad my root password is 16 chars long).

    See, that's why I have a blank root password...so they spend all that time cracking something that doesn't exist.

    Unfortunately, some of us here know the empty MD5 well enough to recognise it on site. It's the only one I've ever seen that contains the string '98 foob2'.

    I'm not entirely sure what a foob is, but I'm pretty sure we have at least 98 of them here.
