PassGen

A targeted password dictionary attack tool

PassGen is a security tool intended to generate a potential password list for a target using different combinations of capital letters and common substitutions. It can also be used to make HTTP requests to see if any passwords from the list are valid.

It is intended to be used for internal security testing to identify any weak passwords that might be in use and should never be used against a target without their full consent.

Complete list of options:

  • no options : generates a password list by replaceing the first character of the password and appending an extra character to the end.
  • -f : generate a full password list. This can make the password list quite lengthy.
  • -n : generate a password list the appends 4 digit numbers to the end of the target password.
  • -o : output file name
  • -t : HTTP request target (example: http://myTestSite.com/login)
  • -d : HTTP parameters (example: email=abe@test.com,password={0}). The {0} specifies where the password will be inserted into the data.
  • -g : Text to search for in the HTTP response. Use this to determine when a password has worked.
  • -n : Append numbers flag. Appends the numbers 0-9999 to the end of all passwords
  • -c : Copy to clipboard flag. Copys results to the clipboard

Examples:

Basic Usage:

Generates a password list by replaceing the first character of the target password and appending an extra character to the end.

python passgen.py smith

Passwords with numbers:

Generates a large number of potential passwords by replace the first character and appending a 4 digit number from 0-9999 to the end of the target password.

python passgen.py -n smith

Full password list:

Genearates a large number of potential passwords by generating a list of every combination of replacement passwords

python passgen.py -f smith

Generates 76 passwords like so:

smith1
smith2
smith3
...
5mith&
5mith*
5mith?

Basic password list output to file

Create a basic password list and save it to a file.

python passgen.py -o outputFile.txt smith

Basic password list saved to clipboard

Create a basic password list and save it to your clipboard so you can paste it elsewhere.

python passgen.py -c smith

Basic password list used to make HTTP requests

Create a basic password list and uses it to make login requests. In the example below it searches for the text "success" in the response. If found, it will say which password worked and exit. Notice that & must be replaced with \& in the command line.

When makeing HTTP request you must include a value for target (-t), data (-d) and search text (-g).

python passgen.py -t http://myTestSite.com/login -d email=smith@test.com\&password={0} -g success smith

Other stuff:

PassGen should only be used for internal security testing.

PassGen only substitutes characters for alpha characters. This means that if you include numbers or symbols, they will not be replaced with any characters.
