John The Ripper 1.7.9: Posted Nov 27, 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: OpenMP parallelization of MD5-crypt and bitslice DES has been added. DES key setup has been reworked. x86-64 assembly code for DES S-boxes has been optimized. Support for DES-based tripcodes has been added. Larger hash table sizes for faster processing of millions of hashes per salt have been added. Detection of Intel AVX and AMD XOP with fallback to an alternate program binary has been added. Fallback to a non-OpenMP build has been added. A benchmark result comparison tool has been added. The bundled common passwords list has been updated. Many minor enhancements and a few bugfixes were made.; tags | tool, cracker; systems | windows, unix, beos; SHA-256 | 0d376320b6cc92b0f1341f4a06a79a989c9848e56da8018108b68c0dd6723e05; Download | Favorite | View
