INTRODUCTION

Snap Cracks POP is a simple to use POP3 and FTP cracker written in Java (1.0.2). It was knocked up in a couple of hours so it is a bit of a hack.

It works by connecting to the relevant port and repeatedly attempting to authenticate a target user with a different password (from a dictionary file). If it finds a match it stops displaying the user's password.

This should be quite useful as many systems use the same passwd for POP3 mail, FTP and shell login. Since incorrect authentication on these protocols are not normally monitored and if these ports are not protected by a Firewall or packet filtering router they can be attacked from the outside.

HOW TO USE

Assuming you have a Java correctly installed on your machine, the steps are:

1. On Windows95 run the Snap, Cracks Pop shortcut. On Unix, run the scp.sh script.
2. Enter the Target server details and select protocol, scp will automatically set the default port number but you can edit this if you know better.
3. Enter the target user name.
4. Click on the 'select dictionary' button and select a dictionary file, at the moment this has to be in the directory as the executable. The dictionary file should have one word per line ala Cracks dictionary file.
5. Click on Start, and wait (and hope).

If you get a match it will stop and display target's user's password.

DOWNLOAD

Download SCP in ZIP Format, TAR Format, or GZIP'd TAR Format.

FUTURE PLANS

I am planing to beef up SCP when I have the time and include an automatic dictionary word mutator (again like Crack).
