RE: [libreoffice-users] Re: how to crack a PW in LO?

If you're talking about files with protections, minutes is on the long side.  It is trivial to 
remove protections.

If you're talking about Libre Office files created by Save As ... | Save with Password options, I 
would like to know who is claiming they can do that in any reasonable time.

There are some older forms of Microsoft Word save with password that are easy to crack.  Not newer 
ones though.

Although I have concerns about the quality of the encryption used in ODF documents (what Save As 
... | Save with Password uses), I don't think you're going to find any commodity software that is 
able to crack those in any feasible time period.

If there is, that needs to be widely known.

Care to share any links?

Dennis,
When I am reading your long and excellent explanation, I wonder again how some PW removing tools, 
which offer a demo with opening the file or showing the PW removed, can claim that the file could 
be 
open within a few seconds to a minute?
