libbruteforce - A Rust library to brute force hashes multithreaded

This library spawns a thread for each cpu on your system to brute force a password/hash. It offers built-in support for MD5, SHA1, and SHA256, but you can also provide your own hashing function as a parameter.

You can specify your own alphabet or use the internally programmed symbols.

JUST FOR FUN!

I did this project just for fun to learn new things. Please don't use it to do any harm to someones privacy!

Hint

Always execute this library in release mode, e.g. cargo run --bin bench --release. Otherwise the performance is really bad.

Example usage

use libbruteforce::{symbols, transform_fns};
use libbruteforce::CrackParameter;
// If you want: add a "log"-crate compatibly logger to Cargo.toml
// like "simple_logger".
// use simple_logger::SimpleLogger;

fn main() {
    // to get information about trace! logs (like progress) on the console
    // SimpleLogger::new().init().unwrap();

    let alphabet = symbols::Builder::new().with_lc_letters().with_common_special_chars().build();
    let sha256_hash = String::from("3d7edde33628331676b39e19a3f2bdb3c583960ad8d865351a32e2ace7d8e02d");
    // sha256("a+c")
    let res = libbruteforce::crack(
        CrackParameter::new(
            sha256_hash.clone(), alphabet, 3, 0, transform_fns::SHA256_HASHING, true,
        )
    );
    if res.is_success() {
        println!("Password is: {}", res.solution.unwrap())
    }
}
