I have edited the code a little to accept the zip and wordlist files from command line arguments, check it here.Ĭheck my result: :~# gunzip /usr/share/wordlists/ The method extractall() will raise an exception whenever the password is incorrect, so we can pass to the next password in that case, otherwise, we print the correct password and exit out of the program. We open the wordlist and read it word by word and tries it as a password to extract the zip file, reading the entire line will come with the new line character, as a result, we use the strip() method to remove white spaces. Since wordlist now is a Python generator, using tqdm won't give much progress information, that's why I introduced the total parameter to give tqdm the insight on how many words are in the file. Print(" Password not found, try other wordlist.") Print(" Password found:", code().strip()) Notice we read the entire wordlist and then get only the number of passwords to test, this can prove useful for tqdm so we can track where we are in the brute-forcing process, here is the rest of the code: with open(wordlist, "rb") as wordlist:įor word in tqdm(wordlist, total=n_words, unit="word"): Print("Total passwords to test:", n_words) N_words = len(list(open(wordlist, "rb"))) # count the number of words in this wordlist
#HACK 7ZIP PASSWORD ZIP FILE#
To read the zip file in Python, we use the zipfile.ZipFile class that has methods to open, read, write, close, list and extract zip files (we will only use extractall() method here): # initialize the Zip File object # the zip file you want to crack its password Let's specify our target zip file along with the word list path: # the password list path you want to use, must be available in the current directory Open up a new Python file and follow along: import zipfile
#HACK 7ZIP PASSWORD HOW TO#
Related: How to Crack PDF Files in Python. You can also use the crunch tool to generate your custom wordlist as you exactly specify. For this tutorial, we are going to use the big rockyou wordlist (with the size of about 133MB), if you're on Kali Linux, you can find it under the /usr/share/wordlists/ path.
#HACK 7ZIP PASSWORD INSTALL#
We will be using Python's built-in zipfile module, and the third-party tqdm library for quickly printing progress bars: pip3 install tqdmĪs mentioned earlier, we gonna use dictionary attack, which means we are going to need a wordlist to brute force this password-protected zip file. Note that there are more convenient tools to crack zip files in Linux, such as John the Ripper or fcrackzip ( this tutorial shows you how to use them), the goal of this tutorial is to do the exact same thing but with Python programming language. In this tutorial, you will write a simple Python script that tries to crack a zip file's password using dictionary attack. Say you're tasked to investigate a suspect's computer and you find a zip file that seems very useful but protected by a password.
