Joomla password encryption

Post by kerem9595 » Mon Aug 13, 2018 6:20 am

I need to access the joomla user table jos_users for login checking from external php script [codeignitor].

joomla storing password like this

4e9e4bcc5752d6f939aedb42408fd3aa:0vURRbyY8Ea0tlvnTFn7xcKpjTFyn0YT
Looks like this is not the normal MD5 ,so i cannot use md5(password) .

what is the possible way to create the password ?

Thank you.

I believe later versions of joomla use bcrypt and not MD5.
