Bitcoin sites leaked :( - Big bitcoin members emails database

[bitsmichel]

I've just checked other 3 files they are offering for free and all paswords are hashed in databases. No need to worry at all if your password is long enough.

Which hashing algorithm is used? MD5?

Yes, MD5 is used.

[Aurum]

Yes, them use md5, the auroracoin forum use the traditional forum salt that is more hard to decrypt.

but with a good pay decoder with trillion hashes decode it no can be hard.

examples (hashes get from freecoinworld):

[Mellnik]

Oh my god. Why the fuck would you use md5 LOL

[Remember remember the 5th of November]

Yup, the moment we read about MD5, it's already guaranteed that you need to change your password ASAP. MD5 can be bruteforced very easily.

As of now it seems that this is just scam in the case of bitcoin.de. This is not the first attempt of this kind. The person trying to make money out of this wasn't able to provide any proof that this data is indeed what he claims it is.

guys get your head out of the sand..

simple solution is to change your password regularly and then it wont matter if someone has your md5 hash. if you are worried about it more because you use the same email and password for all sites. CHANGE THEM ALL

even to me its more likely that "aurum" owns the aururacoin forum and give away sites and and has dumped his databases as the free 'tempter' to try getting people to hand him funds.

so just change your passwords regularly and dont use the same password on every site, as standard security procedure. and move on with your lives

Thanks for the news.  I think it is good for this to happen so people are aware that they need to take the extra steps to be safe.  Big ups to all of those who are more technologically inclined taking the time to warn others.

Bitcoin.de are on him pack. That sucks.

Are we need to always make new password?

Yes, we are, with that information

This is good to know, it would be good to hear from the other sites, though I suspect this is a hoax/scam.  As others have noted freebitco.in has a lot of users, but I'm not sure what the value of the passwords would be since they are tied to btc addresses not anything useful.

Well, you can change receiving address but then user would get email about that. Only way it could work is if rhat mail went to spam folder. Also problem is that users have same passwords for many sites, so somebody could hack much more things then just freebitco.in account.

It's one of the basic rule for all the newcomers out there, "CHANGE THE PASSWORD REGULARLY"

I tried to change ALL my passwords at once. It took about 2 weeks.

How many account do you have then? This way it looks like you have over 20k accounts

[LiteCoinGuy]

They might have got their hands on the 3 crap sites, but nearly no way they got access to bitcoin.de (i think)

and also there were no news about a bitcoin.de hack. maybe just scam.

Not that many, about a hundred.

No, there are few hundreds. But definitely less than a thousand :-)

Well anyway it took you quite a time to change every password. I thought you had even more accounts when you did that for 2 weeks

You know, when every single service invents its own way to change password it takes awhile to change everything )

Yes, because in most cases today passwords are not hashed in the database. Companies do not take security seriously - that's why hacking pays off.

I agree, there is no excuse for not hashing passwords. It's really easy to do.

Here's some free PHP code for anyone who wants to hash passwords. This is not the best way to do it in the newer versions of PHP but I'm stuck with 5.4.

Code:

class Hash 
{
	function hash_password($password, $cost, $salt = null)
	{
		// define result array
		$result = array();
		
		if ($salt == null)
		{
		    // generate a new salt
		    $result['salt'] = substr(hash('sha256', uniqid('', true) . mt_rand(0, mt_getrandmax())), 0, 32);
		    $salt = $result['salt'];
		}

		// create an initial hash
		$result['hash'] = hash('whirlpool', $salt . $password);

		// apply Whirlpool for 1/2 of specified rounds
		for ($i = 0; $i <= ($cost / 2) - 1; $i++)
		{
		    $result['hash'] = hash('whirlpool', $salt . $result['hash']);
		}

		// apply sha-256 for 1/2 of specified rounds
		for ($i = 0; $i <= $cost / 2; $i++)
		{
		    $result['hash'] = hash('sha512', $salt . $result['hash']);
		}

                // return an array containing the salt and final hash
