Joomla 1.5.x Password Hash Generator

Following the recent spate of hacks using the security vulnerbility in all Joomla 1.5.x versions prior to 1.5.6 I have had a need to generate new password hashes for manual inputting into the Joomla jos_user database table

If you have no idea what this is or why you need it then this tool is not intended for you :-) Ignoire it :-)

You can access the tool securely at

https://secure.phil-taylor.com/generate_password.php

This tool generates an md5 salted hash, the salt is dynamica and changes each time meaning the encrypting of a password will (in theory) not generate the same hash twice.

Enjoy!

  2. The source can be viewed here:
    https://secure.phil-taylor.com/generate_password.phps

    Its nothing special, and is actually copied from Joomla itself.

    Kindest regards
    Phil.
