PollardRsaCracker

This is my implementation of RSA cracking algorithm based on Pollard factorization. It will work if the numbers p - 1 and q - 1 that form n = p * q (as a part of the public key, p and q are prime), have no large maximum prime power factors. Of course, all modern RSA implementations don't have this security issue so this is more of an educational project.

Usage

In order to start the script, simply run python cracker.py

You will need 4 inputs:

  1. n - the modulus in the public key so that m = c ^ d mod n where m is the message, c is the encrypted message, d is the private key.
  2. e - the second public key component (so that gcd(e, phi(n)) = 1).
  3. c - the encrypted message.
  4. b - the maximum prime factor of n. This field is optional. However, if you leave it blank, the brute-force algorithm will be used for factorizing n.
