## Vulnerable Application
This module attempts to use a password cracker to decode AIX
based password hashes, such as:
* `DES` based passwords
Formats:
| Common | John | Hashcat |
| ------ | -------- | ------- |
| des | descript | 1500 |
Sources of hashes can be found here:
[source](https://openwall.info/wiki/john/sample-hashes), [source2](http://pentestmonkey.net/cheat-sheet/john-the-ripper-hash-formats)
## Verification Steps
1. Have at least one user with a `des` password in the database
2. Start msfconsole
3. Do: ```use auxiliary/analyze/crack_aix```
4. Do: set cracker of choice
5. Do: ```run```
6. You should hopefully crack a password.
## Actions
### john
Use john the ripper (default).
### hashcat
Use hashcat.
## Options
### CONFIG
The path to a John config file (JtR option: `--config`). Default is `metasploit-framework/data/john.conf`
### CRACKER_PATH
The absolute path to the cracker executable. Default behavior is to search `path`.
### CUSTOM_WORDLIST
The path to an optional custom wordlist. This file is added to the new wordlist which may include the other
`USE` items like `USE_CREDS`, and have `MUTATE` or `KORELOGIC` applied to it.
### DeleteTempFiles
This option will prevent deletion of the wordlist and file containing hashes. This may be useful for
running the hashes through john if it wasn't cracked, or for debugging. Default is `false`.
### Fork
This option will set how many forks to use on john the ripper. Default is `1` (no forking).
### INCREMENTAL
Run the cracker in incremental mode. Default is `true`
### ITERATION_TIMEOUT
The max-run-time for each iteration of cracking
### KORELOGIC
Apply the [KoreLogic rules](http://contest-2010.korelogic.com/rules.html) to Wordlist Mode (slower).
Default is `false`.
### MUTATE
Apply common mutations to the Wordlist (SLOW). Mutations are:
* `'@' => 'a'`
* `'0' => 'o'`
* `'3' => 'e'`
* `'$' => 's'`
* `'7' => 't'`
* `'1' => 'l'`
* `'5' => 's'`
Default is `false`.
### POT
The path to a John POT file (JtR option: `--pot`) to use instead. The `pot` file is the data file which
records cracked password hashes. Kali linux's default location is `/root/.john/john.pot`.
Default is `~/.msf4/john.pot`.
### SHOWCOMMAND
Show the command being used run from the command line for debugging. Default is `false`
### USE_CREDS
Use existing credential data saved in the database. Default is `true`.
### USE_DB_INFO
Use looted database schema info to seed the wordlist. This includes the Database Name, each Table Name,
and each Column Name. If the DB is MSSQL, the Instance Name is also used. Default is `true`.
### USE_DEFAULT_WORDLIST
Use the default metasploit wordlist in `metasploit-framework/data/wordlists/password.lst`. Default is
`true`.
### USE_HOSTNAMES
Seed the wordlist with hostnames from the workspace. Default is `true`.
### USE_ROOT_WORDS
Use the Common Root Words Wordlist in `metasploit-framework/data/wordlists/common_roots.txt`. Default
is true.
### WORDLIST
Run the cracker in dictionary/wordlist mode. Default is `true`
## Scenarios
### Sample Data
The following is data which can be used to test integration, including adding entries
to a wordlist and pot file to test various aspects of the cracker.
```
creds add user:des2_password hash:rEK1ecacw.7.c jtr:des
creds add user:des_password hash:rEK1ecacw.7.c jtr:des
creds add user:des_55 hash:rDpJV6xlcXxRM jtr:des
creds add user:des_pot_55 hash:fakeV6xlcXxRM jtr:des
creds add user:des_passphrase hash:qiyh4XPJGsOZ2MEAyLkfWqeQ jtr:des
echo "fakeV6xlcXxRM:55" >> /root/.msf4/john.pot
echo "test" > /tmp/wordlist
echo "password" >> /tmp/wordlist
```
### John the Ripper
We'll set `ITERATION_TIMEOUT 60` for a quick crack, and `ShowCommand true` for easy debugging.
