hex output special character - showii - 08-02-2016
hey,
i use the latest hashcat version with this command:
hashcat64.exe -m 0 -o output.txt --remove hash.txt wordlists
but when hashcat cracked a hash with special character (example) ö, ä , ü i dont get in my output file the password as normal output... i get it in a $HEX
so how can i get special character words output in normal and not in hex did i need to change my command??
thank you

it's nothing particular strange about that $HEX[...] output, instead it is just the hexadecimal representation of the string.
Yeah, if you really want you can use --outfile-autohex-disable in your first command to disable the hexadecimal conversion of strings that use characters outside the 0x20-0x7f character range.
BTW: you can just convert the hexadecimal chars (using bulk processing too, e.g. under linux with xdd etc, even online hex-converters should work, but they might have problems with the non-ascii output too - i.e. encoding issues). Or you can just use hashcat to convert the strings for you (after you have the $HEX[...] outputs in your .pot file already:
Code:
./hashcat --quiet --show --outfile-format 2 -m 0 hash_file.txt | ./hashcat --quiet --stdoutRE: hex output special character - showii - 08-02-2016
thank you --outfile-autohex-disable works !!!
