How am I supposed to get back to ios 7.1.1 if its asking for a password I do NOT have. This would be my luck. Did the SAME exact crap I did before to downgrade and now the. Dmg file that has the ipsw I need is encrypted with some stupid password which MUST be something new because I surely did not have this issue last time. Go to the logon screen, type in any password, if the password is wrong, you will get the prompt message saying 'the password is incorrect', click on OK below it. Because the files are encrypted using AES, it'll take a really really really REALLY long time to crack the password if your password isn't in the dictionaries, so it's safe to assume your files are gone forever. Forgot password to an encrypted dmg file. I remember possible passwords that I might have used but none of them work. Any body have some kind of software I can type a few passwords into and it will combine them to crack the dmg file password?
Let's cut to the chase right now:
Cracking encrypted disk image, AKA DMG is feasible, but, and there are many buts, is extremely, extremely time consuming.
If you do not remember at all the password, or if you attempt to crack in 'blind mode', you will probably need to teach your kids how to do it: By the time you'll have a fighting chance, you'll be long dead.
Step 1: Write down everything you can remember about the forgotten password, i.e what you could have used, and what you are sure not to have used, i.e. never used a space or a '@' sign.
Step 1a: If you remember enough of your password, or if you are just missing trailing numbers i.e Mypassword???? >> MyPassword1234 and do not remember if it's 1234 or 4321, or 9999, Just use CrowbarDMG and a Wordlist.
For good Wordlists, go here!
If you need to create a specific wordlist (because you remember what you may have used and, most importantly, what you may have not used, go here and look for Wordlists On Demand)
Warning!: CrowbarDMG is slow!
CrowbarDMG is basically a GUI for the hdiutil command
ETA for trying 9999 passwords: About 3 hrs
99,999 passwords: About 30 hrs
999,999 passwords: About 300 hrs Or 12 days ....
Step 2: Do you know how to compile and use John The Ripper? I mean 'use it! including editing Rules, etc?
--> No? Proceed here. Read carefully. Pause. Repeat.
--> Yes! Ok, Sure?
1) Download JTR, version Bleeding Jumbo by Magnum
As of Aug 2013, it's here otherwise here
2) Compile. Don't forget to edit the Makefile and John.conf. Check for CUDA and OMP/MPI RUN. Creating a new Charset? that could be wise...
3) Run dmg2John.py to extract the hash
python [path to file ]dmg2john.py [path to file] myfile.dmg > dmg.txt
4) Edit/Create your rules as needed
5) ./ John etc (Run Baby, run ....)
6) There is always Hashcat (Win/Lin)
7) Because most you have seen, in movies, Hackers cracking an AES within minutes, you'll try without thinking too much about it.
It's going to leave you with a lot of time to read ....
Enjoy ...
8) Without going into too much details, the use of GPU assisted is highly recommended. If you have one of those ones, you'll most likely increase your speed by a factor of 1000, sometimes 10,000 times faster.
