Joomla 3.3 crypting in java, get salt value

I wanted to implement an external login using java, but the password hashing in joomla uses md5 with a salt value to generate the hashed passwords. How can I get the salt values to enable the login via my Java Client?

Especially the Salt values of each User.

Solution

  • Joomla in the latest 3.3.x you are asking about does not use MD5 anymore it uses bcrypt https://stackoverflow.com/a/21315610/6096
