Deleting symbols with rules? - hlabrande - 02-06-2020
Hello,
Is there a way to write a rule to delete/purge symbols from the candidate? I tried "@?s" but hashcat is not very happy. Is there a way to do this that's better than "@? @! @_ @,....."? I haven't seen it in the documentation...
Thanks!

There is no way. The @ rule is not implemented in hashcat. It was only available in the old cpu-only version.

Hi undeath,
I think I'm using a CPU-only version
I haven't had problems with purging individual characters, I just thought you could purge charsets too - but it sounds like you can't?

Indeed the rule seems to have been implemented into hashcat. But no, there's no shortcut for whole sets. You may consider pre-processing your wordlist file(s) if applicable.

I might just do that yeah. Thank you!
