A command-line tool for querying Troy Hunt's Have I been pwned? service using the hibp Node.js module.
Download and install Node.js, then install pwned
globally using npm
:
npm install pwned -g
Alternatively, you can run it on-demand using the npx
package runner:
npx pwned
On July 18th, 2019, the haveibeenpwned.com API moved several services behind authentication,
requiring an API key. See Troy's blog post for rationale and a full
explanation. In order to use some of pwned
commands (e.g. ba
, pa
, and search
), you will need
to get an API key and run pwned apiKey
to configure pwned
. The other commands do
not require an API key and you may use them without obtaining one.
pwned <command>
Commands:
pwned apiKey [key] set the API key to be used for authenticated requests
pwned ba <account|email> get all breaches for an account (username or email address)
pwned breach <name> get a single breached site by breach name
pwned breaches get all breaches in the system
pwned dc get all data classes in the system
pwned pa <email> get all pastes for an account (email address)
pwned pw <password> securely check a password for public exposure
pwned search <account|email> search breaches and pastes for an account (username or email
address)
pwned subStatus get the subscription status of your API key
Options:
-h, --help Show help [boolean]
-v, --version Show version number [boolean]
Get all breaches for an account:
$ pwned ba [email protected]
✔ Good news — no pwnage found!

Description: In October 2013, 153 million Adobe accounts were breached with each containing an internal ID, username, email, <em>encrypted</em> password and a password hint in plain text. The password cryptography was poorly done and <a href="http://stricture-group.com/files/adobe-top100.txt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">many were quickly resolved back to plain text</a>. The unencrypted hints also <a href="http://www.troyhunt.com/2013/11/adobe-credentials-and-serious.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">disclosed much about the passwords</a> adding further to the risk that hundreds of millions of Adobe customers already faced.
