Hi All, I am trying to figure out the password encryption scheme used by some software and haven't had much luck yet. I was wondering if anyone on here might be able to give me some pointers. A little while ago I remember some discussion on this list (I think it was this list anyway) about decrypting passwords that were XOR encrypted. I can't seem to find that discussion though. I have a few example passwords and I can see a pattern emerging: password crypted a aQ== b cg== c ew== aa aWo= ab aXE= cc e3g= aaa aWpq aab aWpx abb aXFx bbb cnFx Thanks, David --------------------------------------------------------------------------- EARN A MASTER OF SCIENCE IN INFORMATION ASSURANCE - ONLINE The Norwich University program offers unparalleled Infosec management education and the case study affords you unmatched consulting experience.
