ErsatzPassword is a PAM_UNIX module that utilizes the Yubikey HSM to generate cryptographic password hashes in a clever way. If an attacker steals the hashed password file (e.g., /etc/shadow, /etc/master.passwd) and attempts to crack the password via a dictionary bruteforce attack, the ersatz “fake” passwords are revealed rather than the true password. The detailed design of this tool can be found in here.
