A Simple Script to Get Top Passwords Cracked

Several days ago, I took a break from doing my work. I did an exercise to sharpened my “rusty” scripting skills. My goal was to develop a simple script using Ruby to get the top passwords cracked from MD5 Statistics page. This should be an interesting exercise for my brain. :D

Using ZTE MF627 in openSUSE 11.3

Recently I got a chance to test ZTE MF627 USB 3G modem. To be able to use ZTE MF627 3G modem in openSUSE 11.3 you need to install the usb_modeswitch program. In openSUSE 11.3 it separated in two packages :

• usb_modeswitch
• usb_modeswitch-data

Please make sure you install the above packages with version 1.1.3 or newer.

goorecon.rb small problems

While doing a research I utilized goorecon.rb in BackTrack 4. Unfortunately I encountered several problems while using it to enumerate email address.

Let’s produce the problem again here. I want to enumerate all of the email addresses of domain yourbank.com using goorecon.rb :

./goorecon.rb -e yourbank.com
call_center@emyourank.com
helpdesk@emyourank.com
info@emyourank.com

Can you see where the problems are ?
