Hacking and Security / Re: Wordpress passwords encryption ?

The reason for the slow cracking of these passwords is so called: key stretching incorporated in PHPASS.
Here is more info on key strengthening:

Basically the time to generate the hash is increased by hashing the password multiple times - making Bruteforce ineffective method or slowing it down enough.

Thanks a lot!
I already started up Passwords Pro, but noticed big performance drop, cracking MD5(Wordpress), rather md5() from PasswordsPro.
The best was 600 p/s, on 2 cores probably 1000 p/s.
Found Extreme GPU Bruteforcer again from InsidePro using CUDA GPU.
The results from CUDA performance from their site:
MD5 - 420 million p/s
MD5(Wordpress) - 0.05 p/s
Which is 8400x slower.
Thanks again, I'll further investigate & if I have valuable info i'll keep you posted

Hacking and Security / Wordpress passwords encryption ?
« on: July 15, 2011, 02:15:10 pm »
Does anyone here know what type of encryption Wordpress uses ?
It used to be plain MD5.
Here is one sample password: $P$BsaP.8zr.ZeT2ktfTfJkgOAhNm3RJB/
All of them starts with: $P$B
Does it use some sort of salt ? Is it possible to crack it, etc.
Can you give me a hint ?
Thanks in advance,
Alex
