hi all, ever since facebook changed its encryption last month to crypt5, it's not possible anymore to decrypt the file msgstore.db.crypt5, before the change it was msgstore.db.crypt.
has anyone found a way to decrypt to msgstore.db?
I have a case which I need to open these messages, appreciate any help.

thnaks in advance.

Gabriel

Sure.

http//github.com/aramosf/pwncrypt5/blob/master/pwncrypt5.py

using python pwncrypt5.py database.crypt5 accountemailinlowercase@none.net > decrypted.db

Except files with .crypt6, there the key will be stored at /data/data/com.whatsapp/files/key and encryption is different.

I had some trouble getting this to work under Windows; in Linux it works fine. In Windows the decryption seemed ok (no error messages, and when I view the raw contents in the decrypted file I can see the tablenames and messages), but I couldn't open the resulting DB file in sqlitebrowser. This was with (as far as I know) the latest version of M2Crypto.

Good luck,

Or use a 3rd party tool named Backuptrans Android WhatsApp Transfer to help.
It provides a simply way to decrypt a whatsapp crypt file.
