Ok now lets talk about something different today.. many hackers just
deface index pages for fame, many wants to get the hold on the server...
some are genious and some are script kiddies... what if you got access
to the server with limited permissions... and you have targeted a
website on that server... what would you do at that time...!

And the real game STARTS NOW... we will learn how to crack a
Cpanel password for all the websites that are hosted on that server or
the particular one with the help of this method "Cpanel Cracking/Hacking!"...!!

First of all...we need a cpanel cracking shell on that server to crack
the passwords of the websites that are hosted on that server!!

Step 1

First we have to upload cp.php cpanel cracking shell on that server to start our journey...!!

Step 2


Second thing we need, is the mother of this method!! Yes...we need
Usernames of the websites and a Extremely capable password dictionary to
crack!!

Now lets start...

Grab all the usernames of websites hosted on the website with the help these commands

1- "ls /var/mail"
2- "/etc/passwd"

Now you will see all the usersnames of the websites and the password list you have provided! Just press the "Go" button and just wait and watch your success!

If you have supplied strong enough password list then you will the a
good response from the server ;) like this "Cracking success with
username "ABC" with password "XYZ"

else it will show you negative response like this "Please put some good passwords to crack username "ABC" :( "

Inshort... the success of cracking usernames is directly proportional to the password dictionary provided  ;)
