The invention relates to the technical field of 
information security. The invention discloses an L2TP / 
IPSEC cracking method and 
system based on high-
performance computing. The 
cracking method comprises the steps of 
cracking a pre-shared key, cracking a login 
password and realizing 
encryption information decryption in combination with data flow redirection. The cracking 
system comprises a traffic intercepting and forwarding module, a man-in-the-middle 
server management end and a man-in-the-middle 
server proxy end. According to the invention, man-in-the-middle 
attack is adopted firstly and thena violent cracking mode is adopted; the 
weakness of Diffie-Hellman is utilized to carry out man-in-the-middle 
attack for three times; the cracking of the pre-shared key is completed by the first man-in-the-middle 
attack; the second man-in-the-middle attack completes cracking of the login 
password, the third man-in-the-middle attack is combined with data flow redirection to achieve 
encryption information decryption, in the 
password cracking process, a user can normally access 
the Internet, and the method is a cracking method which is free of 
perception and does not have influence on the user touse the VPN.
