thc-hydra
Shows how easy it would be to gain unauthorized access to a system
Number one of the biggest security holes are passwords, as every password security study shows. This tool is a proof of concept code, to give researchers and security consultants the possibility to show how easy it would be to gain unauthorized access from remote to a system. There are already several login hacker tools available, however, none does either support more than one protocol to attack or support parallelized connects. It was tested to compile cleanly on Linux, Windows/Cygwin, Solaris, FreeBSD/OpenBSD, QNX (Blackberry 10) and MacOS. However the module engine for new services is very easy so it won't take a long time until even more services are supported. Via the command line options you specify which logins to try, which passwords, if SSL should be used, how many parallel tasks to use for attacking, etc. PROTOCOL is the protocol you want to use for attacking, e.g. ftp, smtp, http-get or many others are available. -

Wi-Fi Cracking
Crack WPA Wi-Fi routers with Airodump-ng and Aircrack-ng Hashcat
Crack Wi-Fi networks that are secured using weak passwords. It is not exhaustive, but it should be enough information for you to test your own network's security or break into one nearby. Begin by listing wireless interfaces that support monitor mode. If you do not see an interface listed then your wireless card does not support monitor mode. Start listening to 802.11 Beacon frames broadcast by nearby wireless routers using your monitor interface. WPA/WPA2 uses a 4-way handshake to authenticate devices to the network. You don't have to know anything about what that means, but you do have to capture one of these handshakes in order to crack the network password. These handshakes occur whenever a device connects to the network. The final step is to crack the password using the captured handshake. If you have access to a GPU, it is highly recommended to use hashcat for password cracking. -

Kraken tool
Kraken: A multi-platform distributed brute-force password cracking
Kraken is an online distributed brute force password cracking tool. It allows you to parallelize dictionaries and crunch word generator-based cracking across multiple machines both as a web app in a web browser and as a standalone electron-based client. Kraken aims to be easy to use, fault-tolerant and scalable. Kraken is a dockerized application using docker-compose which will launch the db (Postgres), s3-compliant file storage (Minio), the server and the browser client. You can find the docker-compose file in the root directory of the repository. To upload password lists or dictionaries, upload them to Minio Console at localhost:9001. View the steps explained for a detailed guide Otherwise, you can generate word lists dynamically using crunch. Window EXE portable client needs to run in the folder with its hashcat dependencies. Hashcat files can be downloaded from their home page. -

PDFRip
A multi-threaded PDF password cracking utility
A multi-threaded PDF password cracking utility equipped with commonly encountered password format builders and dictionary attacks. pdfrip is a fast multithreaded PDF password cracking utility written in Rust with support for wordlist-based dictionary attacks, date and number range bruteforcing, and a custom query builder for password formats. You can write your own queries like STRING{69-420} with the -q option which would generate a wordlist with the full number range. You can pass in an year as the input with the -d option which would bruteforce all 365 days of the year in DDMMYYYY format which is a pretty commonly used password format for PDFs. Just give a number range like 5000-100000 with the -n option and it would bruteforce with the whole range. -

pydictor
powerful and useful hacker dictionary builder for a brute-force attack
A powerful and useful hacker dictionary builder for a brute-force attack. You can use pydictor to generate a general blast wordlist, a custom wordlist based on Web content, a social engineering wordlist, and so on; You can use the pydictor built-in tool to safe delete, merge, unique, merge and unique, count word frequency to filter the wordlist, besides, you also can specify your wordlist and use '-tool handler' to filter your wordlist. You can generate highly customized and complex wordlists by modifying multiple configuration files, adding your own dictionary, using leet mode, filter by length, char occur times, types of different char, regex, and even add customized encode scripts in /lib/encode/ folder, add your own plugin script in /plugins/ folder, add your own tool script in /tools/ folder. -

authoscope
Scriptable network authentication cracker (formerly `badtouch`)
authoscope is a scriptable network authentication cracker. While the space for common service bruteforce is already very well saturated, you may still end up writing your own python scripts when testing credentials for web applications. The scope of authoscope is specifically cracking custom services. This is done by writing scripts that are loaded into a lua runtime. Those scripts represent a single service and provide a verify(user, password) function that returns either true or false. Concurrency, progress indication, and reporting is magically provided by the authoscope runtime. -

Password Guessing Framework
A Framework for Comparing Password Guessing Strategies
The Password Guessing Framework is an open source tool to provide an automated and reliable way to compare password guessers. It can help to identify individual strengths and weaknesses of a guesser, its modes of operation or even the underlying guessing strategies. Therefor, it gathers information about how many passwords from an input file (password leak) have been cracked in relation to the amount of generated guesses. Subsequent to the guessing process an analysis of the cracked passwords is performed. In general though, any guesser that prints the password candidates via STDOUT can be used with the framework. The aforementioned password guessing / password cracking software is not part nor shipped with the framework and need to be installed separately. -

Sippts
Set of tools to audit SIP based VoIP Systems
Sippts is a set of tools to audit VoIP servers and devices using SIP protocol. Sippts is programmed in Python and it allows us to check the security of a VoIP server using SIP protocol. You can freely use, modify and distribute. If modified, please put a reference to this site. Most security tools can be used for illegal purposes, but the purpose of this tool is to check the security of your own servers and not to use to do bad things. I am not responsible for the misuse of this tool. Sippts is a set of tools to audit VoIP servers and devices using SIP protocol. Sipscan is a fast scanner for SIP services that uses multithread. Sipscan can check several IPs and port ranges and it can work over UDP or TCP. Sipexten identifies extensions on a SIP server. Also tells you if the extension line requires authentication or not. Sipexten can check several IPs and port ranges. -

CSVHashCrack Suite
Multi hash crack suite
This script is capable of cracking multiple hashes from a CSV-file like e.g. dumps from sqlmap. Over 17.000 md5-hashes in a CSV-file get cracked with a 14.300.000 lines wordlist in less then 1 min. Lines wich cant get cracked with the wordlist get stored in a .leftToCrack-File to further process with another Wordlist or the bruteforce-tool. In addition to the wordlist-cracker I created also a bruteforce-tool named CSVHashBrutforcer. -
