So the combination is 827ccb0eea8a706c4c34a16891f84e7b?
So the combination is 827ccb0eea8a706c4c34a16891f84e7b. (lifts mask) That’s the stupidest combination I’ve ever heard in my life. That’s the kinda thing an idiot would have on his luggage.
As reported by /. an online MD5 hash database has recently opened up. Just paste in any hash and, if the password is in the database, it’ll happily spit out the cleartext. This concept has been floating around for years including the beginnings of a crypt database project I helped out with at New Hack City back in the mid-nineties. Scary that an online version has popped up; I’m now just waiting for the Firefox plug-ins and Dashboard widgets to start surfacing.

So, this is why it’s worthwhile to add a secret value to something before hashing it.
