Hashcat bug - mastercracker - 01-16-2011
Hi Atom, I have possibly found a bug. I was using Hashcat in a simple dictionary attack with a list of a bit more than 2 million hashes, the Vbulletin external salts and the md5(md5($pass).$salt) algorithm. I was also using the --remove hash function. While the attack was going on (several hours), finding lots of passwords, the temporary hash file got bigger and bigger up to 260 Gb. I have noticed it because my hard drive was almost empty and now, it was almost full.

hi mastercracker, thanks for report. i can confirm this is a bug. as a workaround, do not use -e and --remove in combination :-)
RE: Hashcat bug - mastercracker - 01-16-2011
Now that I know this, what I do as a workaround is that after a couple of hours, I manually stop Hashcat, take note of the -s value, delete the hash temp file and then continue the cracking at the -s value.

On a related not to cracking VB hashes, when I specify the salt file which contains 857375 salts, oclHashcat come back as says:
ERROR: too much salts
??

Oh snap, so much salts!

Tnx mastercracker, simple enough solution
Another issue I have is I only want to use my wordlist files on their own, no right-dict. I need oclHashcat to do this based on the amount of salts but currently I have to use hashcat instead which is slow because of CPU speed

In your command line: ?1 ?s?d?u?l
left: Your dictionary
right: ?1
I put this at the end but I guess it can be anywhere: --rule-left="]"
Basically the rule deletes the last character and then you bruteforce every possible character at the end of your word.
RE: Hashcat bug - blandyuk - 01-28-2011
Thanks for that but it's still slow and with the size of wordlists, it's still no good.
RE: Hashcat bug - atom - 01-28-2011
add the salts to a file and use it either on the left or the right side. of course this depends on the algo.
