Hi David...
on visual inspection i can see a small pattern
1) there is one extra character in the encrypted text as compared to the
clear text
2) 1st "a" in clear results to 1st "a" in encrypted
1st "b" in clear results to 1st "c" in encrypted
1st "c" in clear results to 1st "e" in encrypted
--- following this logic "d" would result in "g" so and so forth...
Do give more examples
Warm Regards

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
