The password is hashed as a 32 bit integer at index 12 of the data: [67 18 14 0]. When read as a little-endian integer, this is the number 922179.
Your password is 'aaaaa'
I'll post the algorithm and brute-forcing code to my repo soon.

Before you posted this, I started pounding on the hashing algorithm myself. And after a couple of hours I managed to solve it! Very Happy

It is strange that you should be so certain that my password is aaaaa. It actually is, but due to the hashing into just 4 bytes it could also be something completely different. In fact, my own password-routine that I have now written suggests aaba instead of aaaaa Smile

And my race with password AAAA it suggested a902 for. Wink

And both passwords worked in stars. Very Happy

Unfortunately, I have not been able to find the password I actually wanted to find yet Sad

My own brute-force-approach is a little bit too brute-force, calculating all permutations of [abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456 789] , starting with 1 characters, then advancing to 2, then 3 etc. For each permutation I calculate a hash and compares with the decrypted number.
4 characters takes up to 2458 ms, 5 characters up to 130136 ms. It is still calculating for 6 characters..
It would probably be more speedy if I wrote it in C or something instead of Java, and I should probably try it out on my stationary computer instead of my laptop, maybe give the java-process a bit more memory for the recursion etc. But I guess the code could also be optimized also somehow. I'll have a look into your code when you publish it Smile
