One of the most famous network logon cracker – THC-HYDRA, was updated recently. We now have THC-HYDRA version 7.0! Our previous post regarding THC-HYDRA can be found here.
“THC-HYDRA is a very fast network logon cracker which support many different services. This tool is a proof of concept code, to give researchers and security consultants the possibility to show how easy it would be to gain unauthorized access from remote to a system. It was tested to compile cleanly on Linux, Windows/Cygwin, Solaris, FreeBSD and OSX.”
This is the official change log for THC-HYDRA v7.0:
- New main engine for hydra: better performance, flexibility and stability
- New option -u – loop around users, not passwords
- Option -e now also works with -x and -C
- Added RDP module, domain can be passed as argument
- Added other_domain option to smb module to test trusted domains
- Small enhancement for http and http-proxy module for standard ignoring servers
- Lots of bugfixes, especially with many tasks, multiple targets and restore file
- Fixes for a few http-form issues
- Fix smb module NTLM hash use
- Fixed Firebird module deprecated API call
- Fixed for dpl4hydra to work on old sed implementations (OS/X …)
- Fixed makefile to install dpl4hydra (thx @sitecrea)
- Fixed local buffer overflow in debug output function (required -d to be used)
