Thanks to Nigel and Main Framed, RACF algorithm is now *known*. A JtR
module has also been written (Check
https://github.com/magnumripper/magnum-jumbo). The only part remaining
is converting RACF binary database(s) into a format usable by JtR
(i.e. racf2john utility). For now you can use CRACF (to get CRACF.txt
file from input RACF database), cracf2john.py (for CRACF.txt to JtR
suitable conversion) and finally JtR to audit mainframe passwords.
