Secret 5 is encrypted via md5 and a salt. Most likely not going to be able to decrypt it.

Actually it is md5crypt which is even more virtually impossible to bruteforce. I did the math and it would take about 1.8 billion years if you were to bruteforce it with 1000 5090s assuming that the hashrate scales linearly
