C++ MD5 Bruteforcer

It was stated in the description of the code that one must have "md5.cpp" and also "md5.h" for the MD5 functions and encryption templates (something like that).

I was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of them? I have Google'd my problem and nothing has come up. I even searched on here.

I would really appreciate it! Thank you!

Link to the code, please. Also, learn what headers are.

I remember reading about that code and I also was curious about origin of this "md5.h" header file.

there are three possible cases.

  1. md5.h is one of C++ cryptography library file
  2. author made md5.h for him self but didn't share.
  3. author made a simple string comparing code and leave the hardest part, changing string to hash, to users.

I'm pretty sure it's not in C++ cryptography library, but I could be wrong.

I don't know why any one would present only fraction of work if he was to present at all….

therefor I personally think it's 3rd case.

And if i understand the code correctly it's more of dictionary attack then bruteforce. it take string from a password list file and compare…

you can make bruteforcer with password list, but it's so inefficient…

That is a form of brute forcing.

It is not hard to find a library which has an md5 function. http://hashlib2plus.sourceforge.net/ Come on, we don't live in the B.G. era anymore. You have no excuse.

ya… I agree…

I guess i'm thinking of randomly generated string, instead of certain set of word like dictionary, when i think of bruteforce.

You just tell people to google. AldarHawk used google and showed the person who needs help a good result. There's a big difference ^^
