New version of john the ripper dev, available since today.

John is a password cracker (not online) very fast (after the site) and very comprehensive (damage cons, no support CUDA GPU, OpenCL)

changelog:

Generic * crypt (3) support (enabled with "- format = crypt") has been "Added

for auditing password hash types

Supported By The system but not yet

Supported by John's own optimized cryptographic routines ( Such as "SHA-crypt" and SunMD5). * Optional

parallelization of the above has been implemented by means of OpenMP

along with glibc's crypt_r(3) or Solaris' MT-safe crypt(3C).

* Optional parallelization of John's own optimized code for the OpenBSD-style

Blowfish-based crypt(3) (bcrypt) hashes with OpenMP has been added.
* A more suitable version of 32-bit x86 assembly code for Blowfish is now
chosen on Core i7 and similar CPUs (when they happen to run a 32-bit build).
* More optimal DES S-box expressions for PowerPC with AltiVec (making use of
the conditional select operation) contributed by Dumplinger Boy (Dango-Chu)
• have been integrated.
* The bitslice DES C source code has been reworked to allow for the use of

arbitrary SIMD intrinsics, which was previously only implemented for AltiVec as a special case.

* Support for SSE2 and MMX intrinsics with bitslice DES (as an alternative to

the supplied assembly code) has been added (currently only enabled for SSE2 on

x86-64 when compiling with GCC 4.4+).

* Support for mixed-type longer virtual vectors (such as SSE2+MMX, SSE2+ALU,

AltiVec+ALU, and other combinations) with bitslice DES has been added (not

enabled by default yet, primarily intended for easy benchmarks on future CPUs,

with future compiler versions, with even more SIMD instruction sets, and with

different DES S-box expressions that might be available in the future).

* The obsolete 32-bit SPARC assembly implementation of DES has been dropped.

* The loader will now detect password hashes specified on a line on their own,

not only as part of an /etc/passwd or PWDUMP format file.

* When run in "--stdin" mode and reading candidate passwords from a terminal

(to be typed by the user), John will no longer mess with the terminal settings.

* John will now restore terminal settings not only on normal termination or

interrupt, but also when forcibly interrupted with two Ctrl-C keypresses.
