Fast hash validation tool, hashpipe
-
One of the banes of my existence has been potfiles. The concept is good, but the reality is that they soon end up as a confused mess of hashes, with no clear idea of which algorithm was used to solve a given hash. Worse, is that sometimes cracking programs get it wrong, or corrupt the actual password.
Hashpipe fixes that. It allows you to go through any solved hash list, and it will validate each hash, and classify it. You don't need hints (though you can certainly give it hints, if you like). And it is very, very fast. It runs through 9.9M md5(md5($pass).$salt) hashes in about 1.8 seconds. It validates cost-12 bcrypts fast too - taking about 12 seconds to validate 1,000 bcrypts.
It's a great way to clean up your potfiles, and actually validate your "big list" solutions. Give it a bash.
