Decrypt Password of Weblogic Domain Components

Password information’s are stored in the data file named SerializedSystemIni.dat, which is located at [DOMAIN_HOME]/security directory. This file cannot be opened in normal text mode. Encrypted passwords are used in various files like config.xml, boot.properties etc.

Using this method one can recover password for

1. weblogic Admin Console
2. KeyStore password
3. Data source Password

Process

 

1. Go to the [DOMAIN_HOME]/security

2. Create a file named Decrypt.py

 

 

3. Copy the below lines to the file and save it

 

 

from weblogic.security.internal import * from weblogic.security.internal.encryption import *    #This will prompt you to make sure you have SerializedSystemIni.dat file under #current directory from where you are running command raw_input("Please make sure you have SerializedSystemIni.dat inside the current directory, if yes press ENTER to continue.")    # Encryption service encryptionService = SerializedSystemIni.getEncryptionService(".") clearOrEncryptService = ClearOrEncryptedService(encryptionService)    # Take encrypt password from user pwd = raw_input("Please enter encrypted password (Eg. {3DES}Bxt5E3...): ")    # Delete unnecessary escape characters preppwd = pwd.replace("\\", "")    # Decrypt password                 print "Your password is: " + clearOrEncryptService.decrypt(preppwd)

 

4. Go to [DOMAIN_HOME]/bin

5. Run  . ./setDomainEnv.sh
