1- Dictionary search to find the password for a zip file
In this example I use rockyou.txt dictionary
$ python3 Zydra.py –f file.zip –d rockyou.txt
2- Brute force search to find the password for the users in the shadow file
Minimum length of password is 4 and maximum length is 4 and we try to find passwords that are composed of numbers and symbols letters.
$ python3 Zydra.py –f shadow –b digits,symbols –m 4 –x 4
To run Zydra using vagrant use the following command (you have to be in the same folder as the repository):
vagrant up
and once it finishes inialisation, you can run:
vagrant ssh
to connect to the virtual machine.
To exit the virtual machine just type
exitin the shell.
To destroy the virtual machine run
vagrant destroy.
More information regarding vagrant usage can be found here
Note: By default the
Vagrantfileuses the following settings:
vb.cpus = 4 vb.memory = 4096Edit the
Vagrantfileand change those values to improve the performance.
