How to Crack MD5 Hashes
Many of you might have gone through some data which is encrypted using the MD5 Hash Algorithm. Even many Websites stores the sensitive data on there site by Encrypting that using MD5 Hash so that even if the Website gets Hacked the attacker will not be able to deface the data. But this case is valid for a NooB & not for an Hacker :D . Its so simple to Crack the MD5 Hashes collected from databases of various websites.
Just follow the below given steps to Decrypt :-
1. Download a software named PasswordPro from here.
2. Extract all the contents of the Zip file to a folder. It should look like this :-
3. For the purpose of this tutorial, I will be cracking this hash: "6dcd0f272fbb7f6f8ff3a8a5e96c45aa:Ws)", which is formatted as "Hash:Salt", and is from VBulletin 4.x.x.
4. Open up notepad, paste in the Hash and salt, and save it anywhere on your computer, preferably in the same folder as Password Pro.
5. Open up Password Pro and go to "File->Import"
6. Find the place where you saved the text file with the hash inside of it, and open it.
Fill in the boxes as such:-
Note: The bottom is the formatting of the hash and salt in the text file, and the top is the algorithm for VBulletin 4.x
7. Go to "Audit->Preliminary Attack"
(For this hash, as it is simple, it should probably crack it with just this.)
8. Hit the start button, and watch it go.
9. If, in the case that a Preliminary Attack does not work, just repeat the previous steps with a Rainbow Attack (If you have a Rainbow Table), a Simple Dictionary Attack, or a Brute Force Attack.
!!! Happy Hacking !!!
