Hi there,

I am trying to decrypt the following information that I have to unlock a locked program.
From the table below, I entered the following username, and password. The encrypted password that I manage to extract are as follow.
If given username and encrypted password, how can i decrypt the password?
Hope to hear some insight from someone out there.



Username
Password
Encrypted Password


abc
11111
bdb657d2838d000193be91183680bce4f1cc400d


abc
111111

My bad, it is more like char instead.

What you may be looking at is a 'hash' of the password, or a hash of the combination of username and password. . .
Hashes are by definition one way functions: If you know the 'before', ie 11111 or abc11111, it is easy and deterministic to derive the after, or hash: bdb657d2838d000193be91183680bce4f1cc400d

Knowing the after 'hash' has no simple algorithm to derive the 'before'. Any protection system, worth is salt, would use such 'one way' functions. Read about MD5 for instance.

Besides brute force, no simple way to reverse the hash into the password.

naides, by knowing the username and password, am i able to track what type of hashes method are utilized to derive hash: bdb657d2838d000193be91183680bce4f1cc400d ?

Not directly. However some of the hash algorithms have code signatures and use specific structures, "tables", that are characteristic enough so that they can be identified by crypto tools: RPG comes to mind . . .http://www.woodmann.com/collaborative/tools/RDG_Packer_Detector ("http://www.woodmann.com/collaborative/tools/RDG_Packer_Detector")

There were others that I do not remember. Also the length of the hash: in your case 16 bytes or 128 bits is characteristic of MD5. SHA-1 is 160 bits. Others have more or less typical hash lengths

Add on: I remember another, PEiD with its Kanal (KryptoANALizer) plug-in.
