hi all,

i've just finished writing my new program.

The program is able to dump the password from the logged in XP user to the screen.

it is not using any exploits or anything, merely it looks at the memory in lsass.exe and retrieves the password from there.

currently it is released as freeware, but perhaps in the future i will release it under the GPL.

the program is called CachedPasswordDumperXP v1.0.

you can get it here.


i have written this program since it might be useful in penetration tests (or merely as a password reminder tool).

i hope you guys like it, and please let me know what you think of it.

in the future i am planning to add windows 2000 and windows 2003 to this program, so that it can work on all 3 OS's.

kind regards,


White Scorpion
