The passwords obviously have a much larger key-space so took longer, but the attack still seems feasible for shorter passwords and the script can easily be modified to only use Latin characters and digits rather than any other special characters or work from a password dictionary which could expedite the process.

On our test handset (an Xperia X10i running Android 2.3) we set a number of PINs and passcodes and found that even on a fairly modest workstation (Python’s hashing modules are gratifyingly efficient) PINs of up to 10 digits could be recovered within a few hours. Satisfied that we could reliably extract the data we needed to recover the PINs or passcodes we crafted a couple of Python scripts – one to find and extract the data in the flash dump, and the other to brute force the hashes recovered (using the salt).

Understanding the record structure also means that once we have captured the record we can ensure that we extract the whole salt value we can simply read the appropriate serial type code and apply the formula to get the length of the salt’s string. Public byte passwordToHash(String password) * the hash of the pattern in a byte array.

To avoid brute force attacks, we use a salted hash. * Generate a hash for the given password. This makes a dictionary attack unfeasible – but if we can reliably recover the salt it would still be possible to attempt a brute force attack. However, unlike the pattern lock, the data is salted before being stored. The hashed data (both SHA-1 and MD5 hash this time) are stored as an ASCII string in a file named password.key which can be found in the same location on the file system as our old friend gesture.key, in the /data/system folder.

Both the numeric PIN and alphanumeric passwords were found to be processed by the same methods in the same way, both arriving as a text string containing the PIN or password.Īs with the pattern lock the code is sensibly not stored in the plain, instead being hashed before it is stored.

Our first port of call was to return to the Android source code to confirm how the data was being stored (see listing 1).

The very act of writing the last blog got us thinking whether it was possible to use a similar approach to recovering the PINs and passwords. However, since version 2.2 (known as “Froyo”) Android has provided the option of a more traditional numeric PIN or alphanumeric password (both are required to be 4 to 16 digits or characters in length) as an alternative security measure. In a previous blog post we described a method to retrieve an Android pattern lock from the raw flash of a device.
