xor-vigenere

xor-encoded vigenere cypher decoder for ru-ru alphabet. Decodes uppercase text without white spaces and Ë letter.

Build

Requires go1.19

$ go build .

Usage

Specify input file and wait for result.

$ ./xor-vigenere -i example/cipher.txt -r 2
Cypher text file: example/cipher.txt
Parallel workers: 12 (override with -w flag)
Trying to predict secret key length ... 8 (override with -l flag)
Cypher text sample size to analyze: 2000 (override with -s flag)
Number of letters in permutations: 4 [ОЕАИ] (override with -p flag)
Number of results to show: 2 (override with -r flag)

АБЫРВАЛГ is a valid secret key on top.

To receive better (but slower) results use:

  • bigger sample size for analyzing cypher text (-s 0 for analyzing whole text)
  • look through more possible keys (-r flag)
  • use more frequently used letters to create more permutations (slows really hard, -p flag)
