MS Office NON-ASCII characters - dokumantopla - 05-21-2018
Hello community,
I'm trying to crack some hashes created with the turkish characters. The passwords I'm trying to crack contain the characters "ş", "Ş", "Ğ", "ğ", "İ", "ı".
I can crack these hashes in -m 13000 with using an UTF-8 dictionary. But I can not crack these hashes in -m 9700 (MS Office files).
To solve this problem, I created an Office document and encrypted it with the character "ş". Then run hashcat with brute-force for 1-4 characters (with following masks: ?b, ?b?b, ?b?b?b, ?b?b?b?b), nothing found.
Can you help me to solve this problem?

Hmm, no strong ideas here yet from me.
Cross-check idea: what method are you using to extract the MS Office hashes? Have you verified your method by setting a simple ASCII password, extracting it, and then cracking it?

I have used different tools, even I extract hashes myself using a hex editor. That means I'm sure the hashes are verified.
I tried only-ASCII passwords in hashcat, they are all cracked.
