Analysis of 400,000+ Stolen Yahoo! Passwords
July 13, 2012 at 3:27 pm
So, if you haven't heard already, users of Yahoo! Voices in the US had their emails and passwords stolen via an SQL Injection. If that wasn't bad enough, the passwords were being stored in the database in plaintext.

I analysed the password list and wrote a report: http://cryptogasm.com/2012/07/analysis-o...passwords/
