INFO: cracking noradi.zip, status file: Īs you can see in above’s command output, the zip password cracking rate of approximately 380 passwords per second is a bit quicker, but still slower than fcrackzip. To test how rarcrack performs with password protected zip files and hence compare if it is superior or inferior to fcrackzip, I used the fcrackzip’s sample pass protected zip rarcrack -threads 8 noradi.zip -type zipĢ by David Zoltan Kedves the specified archive type: zip RarCrack is also said to support cracking zip passwords, but my tests to crack password protected zip file did not bring good results and even one of the tests ended with a segmentation fault. This means cracking a normal password of 6 symbols will take at least 5 hours.
One downside of RarCrack is its extremely slow in breaking the passwords on my Lenovo notebook – dual core 1.8ghz with 2g ram it was able to brute force only 20-25 passwords per second. RarCrack‘s source archive also comes with three sample archive files (rar, 7z and zip) protected with passwords for the sake of testing the tool. INFO: cracking linux_then_and_, status file: linux_then_and_ RarCrack! 0.2 by David Zoltan Kedves the specified archive type: rar Hence a good way to use rarcrack with the –threads option is:įreebsd% rarcrack linux_then_and_ -threads 8 -type rar Using threads speeds up the process of cracking and thus using the –threads is generally a good idea. RarCrack also supports threads (a simultaneous instance spawned copies of the program). linux_then_and_ is protected with the sample password parola The archive linux_then_and_now.png contains a graphic file illustrating the linux growth in use in computers, mobiles and servers. I’ve created a sample rar file protected with password linux_then_and_. The –type option could also take the arguments of rar and 7z. The argument –type rar is optional, in most archives RarCrack should detect the archive automatically. To use RarCrack to crack rar, zip or 7z archive file:įreebsd% rarcrack rar_file_protected_with_password.rar -type rar
On FreeBSD, rarcrack is available and installable via the ports tree, to install on FreeBSD:įreebsd# cd /usr/ports/ security/rarcrack To install rarcrack from source using the mirrored version: RarCrack’s official site is here, I’ve mirrored the current version of RarCrack for download here. RarCrack is currently installable on most Linux distributions only from source, to install on a random Linux distro, download and make & make install. The program is currently at release version 0.2, so its far from perfection, but at least it can break rars. RarCrack is able to crack rar and 7z archive files protected by password on Linux.
