md5 unix blank password hash not recognise, why?
John the ripper - recognise
Can you be a bit more specific? That question seems a bit ambiguous.
What are you referring to as an "md5 unix blank password" ?
I think he says that hashcat cant identify the hash of blank unix password while jtr can.
$1$qGcBis3l$flVMxG3ZvA/fZ9Z.po/Ox.
$1$X4UuYVNe$lDef.MVbbkPNs.8OY8Dso0
$1$Uci9XG1A$MmYu4yv2foakVRKqXch.z.
this is hash md5 passwd blank (no passwd)
hashcat tries crack it, long time bruteforce
other hash, with easy passwd 123, 321 and etc cracked
iam run with key -m 500
ntlm, LM passwd blank recognise good
md5 unix not recognise
other hash not tested
I can confirm zis, blank md5crypt passwords are indeed unrecognized.
and so it is a mistake?
will be fixed in the next version?
and please add a function to work with wordlist description from my topic "worldlist extra rules"
hashcat will be ultra beautiful
Salted hashes do not include such a check. If you want it added you might want to create a TRAC ticket?
I do want such a function but as a switch so I created a trac ticket myself.
I do not know what a TRAC, but I think that the test for an empty password is extremely essential for all hashes
now is to use a separate program for this...
