Selling MD5 Database - very cheap little site!

Discussion in 'Sites' started by Helado, Sep 14, 2009.

    Hi, I created this website as a project, to try and create one of the biggest MD5 databases online. It's not huge, but it's bigger than quite a few (currently has 2.61 million entries). I just don't have the time to make it progress so I'm selling it.

    It doesn't receive many users nor does it make money because I haven't advertised it and there are no ads on it. But, with some advertising (or word of mouth) and some ads, it could be quite a good site for earning.

    I coded the site from scratch and designed it, it's coded in HTML/CSS and PHP with a MySQL database. It's currently hosted on a VPS with GBServers (£10/month). Domain is with namecheap.com.

    If you buy it you will receive the original files from me, the domain will be pushed to your namecheap account and you will have access to the VPS, where you can manage the site to backup any data, or I can transfer the VPS over to you and for the rest of this month you have it free, then you pay to renew.

    So for $50, this is quite good. I AM willing to accept lower offers, I will accept the first offer I like so please post your offers!

    Thanks.

    Why should people use that site?
    is this a password generator?

    No, not a password generator. It is a database of md5 hashes and plain text. An example of where you would find an md5 hash is in a database that stores passwords, like this forum. Your password is stored as md5 in the database, which is not reversible, therefore if somebody got Digital Points forum they couldn't hack your accounts... the md5 database stores loads of plain text and the md5 string with it, so you can search md5 strings and find the plain text. Of course, it can be used for bad purposes, like somebody trying to find a password, but it can also be used for webmasters to test their password security (if it comes up in the database then it's probably weak)!

    Indeed, vBulletin and a lot of other database driven websites with passwords do tend to salt them, so they are very secure. MD5 alone isn't very secure.

    Thanks very much! :)

    Good idea, but only useful for lazy people that are too lazy to upload <?php echo md5($_GET['cryptme']); ?> on their server. :p

    I'll bid $30. What ways could we increase the amount of hashes in the database? I tried a md5 hash of 'testing123' and it didn't find it. Where was this database taken/bought from?

    Thanks

    Sure, you can do that to encrypt the text, but this has a "decrypter" aswell. ;)

    This database was created by me, from scratch. There are a few ways of generating more hashes. The first is manually adding them, which will take forever. The second, is a PHP script that generates a random length of chosen characters, then it hashes them. This does about 1 every second. The last method, which is my favorite, is to either generate a wordlist or download one onto the VPS, then use a script I made that reads the wordlist, hashes every word and then inserts it. This is the most effective way. It hashes between 50 and 100 per second, roughly. I will include these scripts, and show you how to use them. If you connect to the server with SSH, you can use a command to generate character lists. There are many options to what you can do, for example have "testing" followed by every number from 0 to 999. I'll do that now actually.

    578a742820037b3e28d6948ac424627d
    465fc4dde1864b8f7403e6b674c882bb
    etc...

    At the moment it has most of the English words, all numbers from 0 to 999999, some words like test, hello etc with numbers 0 to 999 on the end, common passwords... all 1, 2, 3 and 4 length characters (for example @;Lm or JuY. etc.)

    Thanks for your bid, you're winning so far!

    How about the load on the database? What's that like?

    Well, there's not a great amount of traffic but I've never seen it high. The server load and RAM gets high when hashing 100 hashes a second, but it goes down once it's done. The speed is still quick for hashing/decrypting, I think it would be with tens of millions even.

    The specs of the current VPS are 15GB HDD and 256MB RAM, which handles fine. The actual size of the DB is 280MB for all 2.6 million hashes. So with 15GB you could have around 139 million hashes.

    I have webmin installed on the VPS so you can edit things if need be, also phpmyadmin is installed for looking at the db.
