The following patches for the password cracking program "John the Ripper" have been released by bartavelle. The modifications are NOT in any way endorsed by John the Ripper's author, and some won't work. Random stuff will break apart, default behavior will change. Use vanilla John if you do not require the additional ciphers.
  • The john mscash patch adds support for cached Windows 2000/XP domain password hashes (see cachedump). It is not supported, it is suggested to use the "big patch" that includes the latest mscash patch.

  • The john bigpatch adds support for a wide range of password hashes to John the Ripper. The patch works against John 1.6.38. There are many known bugs, you should use the latest tree if it does not work!

  • The current tree, the current working version. It might not work, but you'll have all the shiny stuff, including the (almost) up to date john base.

    (*) : this cipher has not been toroughly tested. It might not work on non x86 architectures.

    Red means that it is only present in the current tree, or that bugs have been corrected in the current tree

    This patch features speed improvements for many ciphers.
