Android Gather Dump Password Hashes for Android Systems

Created

Description

Post Module to dump the password hashes for Android System. Root is required. To perform this operation, two things are needed. First, a password.key file is required as this contains the hash but no salt. Next, a sqlite3 database is needed (with supporting files) to pull the salt from. Combined, this creates the hash we need. Samsung based devices change the hash slightly.
