New version of cracker-2.0 the PL/SQL cracker - option to not reveal passwords



I have ammended the PL/SQL Oracle password cracker to provide the option to only print out "WEAK" instead of the actual cracked password. The cracker is now version 1.4 and can be downloaded from the same page. The switch to turn on WEAK output is near the top of the code. Locate the line (near the top of the code):




define weak = 'OFF'



And edit it to show:



define weak = 'ON'




When run after the change the cracker is now safe for situations where the passwords should not be revealed, e.g. Sox and German environments. A sample run with this turned on is shown here:

The default is for the cracker to reveal passwords, so if you would like to run it in an environment where passwords should not be revealed then make the simple change above and run it.

I have quite a few more changes planned for the cracker, watch the Oracle database cracker download page for updates and new features to be added soon.
