How can I decrypt the Password Manager Pro database password?
The database password in `database_params.conf` is encrypted using a fixed key `@dv3n7n3tP@55Tri*` stored in `PMPDBPasswordGenerator.class`. The decryption algorithm is in `PMPEncryptDecryptImpl.class` inside `AdventNetPassTrix.jar`. You can write a decryption program based on that class; a reference implementation is available online (see the [article's section on password cracking](/news/password-manager-pro-vulnerability-debugging-environment-setup)). Decrypting the example password yields `Eq5XZiQpHv`.
