Help to recover password from an unknown hash type

[azren]

Hi All,

Is this possible to crack if I only have the $encrypted_password / hash? How should I go about doing this. Any help or point me to the right direction is much appreciated.

Thanks.

Code:

// validate password function function validatePassword( $username, /* username string */ $cleartext_password, /* clear text password that's supplied by user */ $encrypted_password /* encrypted password that's stored in the database */ ) { // build a key based on supplied username and clear text password $key = trim($username).trim($cleartext_password); // decrypt the encrypted password based on the above key $decrypted_password = decrypt($encrypted_password, $key, 'twofish', 'cfb'); // if both string matches, password is correct if ($decrypted_password == $cleartext_password) return true; // if both string does not match, password is wrong return false; }

Best regards,
