The Battlefield Heroes passwords are unsalted MD5. Way to go EA.

  That still beats the NATO bookstore's plaintext. :)

  Hm, are you sure? I have a couple accounts there (and they are appearing in the dump) and they are not simply md5(password). Of course they were long, random passwords and I don't play this game anymore, but I'm curious. Where did you read that?

    I didn't read it anywhere. I downloaded the database and checked all my friends against a known password database. They're plain md5(password).

      Then the dump must be old. I have changed my password months ago and the hash does not match my current password.

  Some BF Heroes beta server was hacked over 2 years ago. I wonder if this could be the same hack.
