    Too small scale. Set your password as an eicar test string.

    This way if your password is decrypted or stored as clear text the host AV will block the file.

    I’d hope places aren’t storing your password in plain text. Though I guess I wouldn’t be super surprised if some were.

      One of my first projects I took over stored hashed passwords, but only unsalted MD5s, in the process of upgrading the hashing algorithm I discovered the plaintext passwords were logged on any sign in, sign up, or password change…

    And add some non-ASCII characters. If the commas did not kill their database, adding unicode will.

      I once had problems unpacking an archive I definitely knew the password for. Turns out, zip made on an Android phone had non ASCII letters in the password in some other encoding than the one PC used

    My password is just a buffer overflow and reverse shell. The nop sled takes forever to type tho.
