Hashcat 0.43 not successfully decrypting SHA512 unix hash - easy - 03-12-2013

Hi,

I downloaded hashcat 0.43 for Windows to do some testing and found some issues with it. I hope the report is useful and perhaps you can help me. (Otherwise I'll have to revert back to a perl script...)

Here's the situation. I have a Unbuntu system named ubuntu-1 for which the uname -a output can be found here:

Linux ubuntu-1.home 2.6.31-22-generic #73-Ubuntu SMP Fri Feb 11 17:36:01 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux

On this system, I've setup a user named test who's password is 123456. The shadow entry for the user can be found below:

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

E:\Temp\passwd>type shadow-ubuntu-1-test.txt
test:$6$DNRlEKWm$tEcdDjEuxYJFaA41eq1Ro4SHot3ov3SHeLo4LQqKNtzjHCNExT5kED8KpIGzQZrt758sa/WwCnQsgRS80EHRT/:15130:0:99999:7:::

and the password list file:

E:\Temp\passwd\hashcat-gui\hashcat-0.43>type ..\..\wordlists\test-wordlist.txt
123456


Problem 1
=======

The CLI help mentions parameters which hashcat-cli32.exe does not recognize:

E:\Temp\passwd\hashcat-gui\hashcat-0.43>hashcat-cli32.exe --help
hashcat, advanced password recovery

Usage: hashcat [options] hashfile [mask|wordfiles|directories]

=======
Options
=======

* General:

-m, --hash-type=NUM Hash-type, see references below
-a, --attack-mode=NUM Attack-mode, see references below

Commands and responses:

E:\Temp\passwd\hashcat-gui\hashcat-0.43>hashcat-cli32.exe --hash-type=1800 --attack-mode=0 ..\..\shadow-ubuntu-1-test.txt ..\..\wordlists\test-wordlist.txt

hashcat-cli32.exe: unknown option -- hash-type


Problem 2
=======

hashcat doesn't handle shadow entries apparently:

E:\Temp\passwd\hashcat-gui\hashcat-0.43>hashcat-cli32.exe -m 1800 -a 0 ..\..\shadow-ubuntu-1-test.txt ..\..\wordlists\test-wordlist.txt
Initializing hashcat v0.43 by atom with 8 threads and 32mb segment-size...

Skipping line: test:$6$DNRlEKWm$tEcdDjEuxYJFaA41eq1Ro4SHot3ov3SHeLo4LQqKNtzjHCNExT5kED8KpIGzQZrt758sa/WwCnQsgRS80EHRT/:15130:0:99999:7::: (line length exception
)
No hashes loaded


No problem, so I stripped the hash into a format hashcat did apparently accept:

E:\Temp\passwd\hashcat-gui\hashcat-0.43>type ..\..\shadow-ubuntu-1-test-stripped.txt
$6$DNRlEKWm$tEcdDjEuxYJFaA41eq1Ro4SHot3ov3SHeLo4LQqKNtzjHCNExT5kED8KpIGzQZrt758sa/WwCnQsgRS80EHRT/

But then...


Problem 3
=======

hashcat does not appear to be able to decrypt the password successfully.

E:\Temp\passwd\hashcat-gui\hashcat-0.43>hashcat-cli32.exe -m 1800 -a 0 ..\..\shadow-ubuntu-1-test-stripped.txt ..\..\wordlists\test-wordlist.txt

What's the deal here? Is this a bug in hashcat?

I look forward to hearing from you & great work. I especially look forward to having my GPU do the heavy lifting. Wink

RE: Hashcat 0.43 not successfully decrypting SHA512 unix hash - atom - 03-12-2013

1. This is typical unix commandline parameter syntax. You have to remove the = char between key and value to make it work.

hashcat-cli32.exe --hash-type 1800 --attack-mode 0 ..\..\shadow-ubuntu-1-test.txt ..\..\wordlists\test-wordlist.txt

2. Correct and thats fine Smile You found the solution yourself.

3. Something is wrong with your hash. Might have happend when copy/paste it. Take a look at the hex-dump:

As you can see at offset 0x0000050 there are some high-ascii utf8 values.

RE: Hashcat 0.43 not successfully decrypting SHA512 unix hash - atom - 03-12-2013

I've reconstructed your hash by hand:

As you can see here, it cracks fine now:

RE: Hashcat 0.43 not successfully decrypting SHA512 unix hash - easy - 03-13-2013

Hi atom,


Great support!

First thing I noticed when you demonstrated the fix on your end is that you're using version 0.44 whereas I'm on 0.43. This may be of importance. Second, it looks like the high UTF-8 characters are the result of posting the hash to the forum. When comparing the fixed hash with the one I logged in the forum post, after copying and pasting the fixed one, an additional character is visible:

Original: $6$DNRlEKWm$tEcdDjEuxYJFaA41eq1Ro4SHot3ov3SHeLo4LQqKNtzjHCNExT5kED8KpIGzQZrt758sa/WwCnQsgRS80EHRT/
Fixed : $6$DNRlEKWm$tEcdDjEuxYJFaA41eq1Ro4SHot3ov3SHeLo4LQqKNtzjHCNExT5kED8KpIGzQZrt758s?a/WwCnQsgRS80EHRT/

From the forum post's HTML:

<blockquote><cite>Quote:</cite>$6$DNRlEKWm$tEcdDjEuxYJFaA41eq1Ro4SHot3ov3SHeLo4LQqKNtzjHCNExT5kED8KpIGzQZrt758s​a/WwCnQsgRS80EHRT/</blockquote>

this character was added: & # 8 2 0 3 ;​ between 's' and 'a'. This is probably from the high UTF-8 byte stream you noticed at offset 0x50: e280 8b.

Checking the data locally from file 'shadow-ubuntu-1-test-stripped.txt' with a hex editor:

shows no high UTF-8 characters at offset 0x50.

Just to make sure that I'm not messing up, I have triple-checked the hashes on ubuntu-1 using MD5 hashes:

root@ubuntu-1:/home/erwin/Documents/source/md5# ./md5 /etc/shadow
2F879E6B0665C70766EA4CEA10E70C0D /etc/shadow

E:\Temp\passwd>md5 shadow-ubuntu-1.txt
2F879E6B0665C70766EA4CEA10E70C0D shadow-ubuntu-1.txt (Original cut & paste generated file tested with when I reported the problem.)

E:\Temp\passwd>md5 shadow.copied
2F879E6B0665C70766EA4CEA10E70C0D shadow.copied (File copied from ubuntu-1 once more to triple check.)

Just to make absolutely sure that the hash is correct, here's the output of the grep command for user test:

root@ubuntu-1:~# grep test /etc/shadow
test:$6$DNRlEKWm$tEcdDjEuxYJFaA41eq1Ro4SHot3ov3SHeLo4LQqKNtzjHCNExT5kED8KpIGzQZrt758sa/WwCnQsgRS80EHRT/:15130:0:99999:7:::

I'm attaching my test files to this message so you can work with these if you like. I would appreciate it if you could look into it further. Also, I ran the command with the parameter format you suggested and it still didn't recognize the --hash-type option:

E:\Temp\passwd\hashcat-gui\hashcat-0.43>hashcat-cli32.exe --hash-type 1800 --attack-mode 0 ..\..\shadow-ubuntu-1-test.txt ..\..\wordlists\test-wordlist.txt
hashcat-cli32.exe: unknown option -- hash-type

Might I have a bad copy of hashcat? MD5 hash is below:

E:\Temp\passwd\hashcat-gui\hashcat-0.43>md5 hashcat-cli32.exe
6BEB279C2FBAF16D8E03C66EE9649300 hashcat-cli32.exe

OK, thanks for your help and look forward to reading your results.

Could you please also run this test with 0.43 (Windows or Linux) just to confirm there really is a problem?

RE: Hashcat 0.43 not successfully decrypting SHA512 unix hash - easy - 03-14-2013

Added another user (test2) on my Ubuntu system and had a go a both hashes using hashcat-cli32.bin renamed to hashcat-cli32-0.43.bin because I also tested 0.42. Results are the same. None of the hashes are cracked.

Just tested the same hash on 32 bit ubuntu and 32 bit windows 7 (w/ cygwin) w/ both v43 and latest beta.
I instead CAN reproduce the problem, seems to be an odd 32bit-specific problem!?

@atom, could you have a look at this one and let me know if I should help you in testing w/ x32?

EDIT: it seems that the forum here adds the "strange" utf-8 character when posting, but the hash should be correct in the test file (double checked it!)

RE: Hashcat 0.43 not successfully decrypting SHA512 unix hash - easy - 03-14-2013

Interesting twist. I fired up my Windows 2012 server (64bit) and ran the 64 bit version of hashcat. (hashcat-cli64)

Conclusion
========

As suggested in the previous post, the 32 bit version of hashcat 0.43 seems to be affected. 64 bit works just fine. The commandline option --hash-type is still not functioning, however. (--hash-mode works just fine, but that is not the option name specified in the --help text.)
