This reminds me of a funny story about a decently popular database plugin for WordPress. Even though they use a bruteforceable value based on time of creation, there was something even funnier. A person would make a quick database backup and it would just place it in the backups folder, that by default wasn't a protected directory (nor was there an option to do it via the plugin), and you could just view && download all the backups freely. Again, hashes and associated salt(s) were available from here. I'll leave it for someone else to ruin what plugin it is. I use it currently in a capture the flag game as bonus points.
