[Full-disclosure] Cracking the entire set of DES-based crypt(3) hashes. Interested ?

2007-07-30 Thread n/a n/a
Let's imagine there is someone out there able to crack any hash of the
entire set of DES-based crypt(3) hashes in a reasonable amount of time,
say 5-10 days.

Let's imagine that no matter how many hashes are submitted to the system,
1 or 1000, all of them are guaranteed to be cracked in this constant
amount of time.

Let's also imagine this service becomes commercially available.

Even though DES-based crypt(3) is outdated and obsolete, its use is still
widespread in typical large heterogeneous IT environments. So I guess this
service would interest lots of legitimate clients such as pentesters,
government agencies, IT departments in large companies or universities,
and the likes.

How much would you value this service ? Would you pay $100, $10, $1 per
hash to crack ? Would you require anonymity to use the service ?

  $10 sounds reasonnable for a hash.
  
  Of course, I would require anonymity to use that service.

I would pay $1 each for md5 cracks of this type, $5 for DES crypt.  
  Anonymity hosted outside the US would be an expected criteria.

Let's be clear here.

JtR will only succeed if the password is based on frequently used
characters. If it is truly random and 8 characters long, JtR will not
be able to crack it.

I am talking about cracking the *entire* set of DES-based crypt hashes.

yes, a joke.  you'd need to charge at least $100 hash to make this
profitable, maybe down to $40-50 if you could leverage bulk pricing
for components.

cmon XRR, spill the beans.  a bunch of PS3's?  FPGA array?  quantum search? :P

Sure it will, it just takes adjustments to john.conf and a *lot* longer.

I'd bet a good VHDL programmer with the cash to cough up for top-notch

Is this what you're planning on doing?

There's probably more CPU cycles available in all the botnets of the world than
there are total in the top500 list.

If you want to do it a bit more legally, the EFF did a one-off box with lots of
FPGA that could do it in a few days, it cost them like $250K in late-90s
dollars, and they estimated building a second one would cost about half as
much.  Now apply Moore's Law and estimate what 2007 FPGA's could do. ;)

Exactly. And my point is that it is only doable in a reasonable amount of
time if you have on the order of 1e5 cpu cores in the cluster. I can do it
for $4M, lower estimate.

Not cheap enough.

Correct. But multiply this by the 25 iterations of DES required by crypt().
So one EFF DES cracker, or better, one copacobana box has a cracking
throughput of 1 hash every 100 days or so.

Not good enough.
