22000 - PMKID and EAPOL for same network - two different keys recovered ? - vom - 10-11-2021
Hello,
I have some 22000 hashes for a single network (same SSID, same BSSID). I have both WPA*01 + WPA*02. Each is from a different client though.
Hashcat has cracked both of them, but with different passwords. This is a consumer grade AP.
I'm a bit confused as to how/why I'm getting two different passwords. Do consumer grade AP's support multiple PSK per SSID nowadays ? This doesn't seem likely to me...
Or is something else going on that I'm not understanding ?
Thanks in advance.

The last field of an EAPOL MESSAGEPAIR hash line (WPA*02) will give you an information about the status of the AUTHENTICATION as described here:

I recommend to read the whole thread.
The EAPOL MESSAGEPAIR could be recorded/requested from a CLIENT that doesn't belong to the target NETWORK.
The PMKID (WPA*01) is transmitted by the ACCESS POINT. The PSK, calculated from this hash line should be the one that belong to the target NETWORK.
Example from here:

hcxpcapngtool convert challenges, too, because it is a good way to detect which kind of PSKs a not authorized CLIENT tried to get access to a target NETWORK.
Please notice:
Due to reuse of PBKDF2, you got two PSKs for the price of one (PBKDF2 calculation using the same SALT).
How to filter challenges out (if you don't need them) is also described in the thread mentioned above.

Wow - great work as always and excellent explanation. Thanks much.

That is only one of the advantages of hc22000 format. The last field of an EAPOL hash line (WPA*02) give you a detailed information about the kind of the converted MESSAGEPAIR.
Explanation of the MESSAGEPAIR field and examples are added to hashcat wiki "Cracking WPA/WPA2 with hashcat":
