moubik Posted January 29, 2008 Report Posted January 29, 2008 Yahoo! CAPTCHA Cracked.It has been suggested before that it would be a matter of time, but now it seems official: The Yahoo! CAPTCHA is no-more. A team of Russian hackers have found a way to read the CAPTCHA with 35% accuracy. Let there be no mistake: the CAPTCHA that Yahoo! deploys is believed one of the most difficult CAPTCHA's to crack. It utilizes bended alpha numeric characters and other features you might expect from a strong CAPTCHA, and still it's easy to solve by humans. I think this is a great leap in character recognition and the death punch to the Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart. I have a weak believe in CAPTCHA's these days, since there will always be a way to compute something that requires human interaction. Whether it be image CAPTCHA's, audible ones or simply Javascript based CAPTCHA's.The Russian hackers had this to say about the Yahoo! CAPTCHA:"The CAPTCHA has a vulnerability we'll discuss later. It's not necessary to achieve high degree of accuracy when designing automated recognition software. The accuracy of 15% is enough when attacker is able to run 100.000 tries per day, taking into the consideration the price of not automated recognition – one cent per one CAPTCHA." - which seems a plausible conclusion.The released software package shows us some inside techniques, the implementation of yahoo CAPTCHA recognition engine can be found here:http://rapidshare.com/files/84243632/YahooCAPTCHARecognition.rar.htmlIf it's gone for some reason, hook me up and i'll send you my copy.Original article on: http://0x000000.com/index.php?i=502 Quote
