Modify the hash file and continue the attack at the same point - MA40 - 06-22-2020

Hi.

I am executing an attack against a file with X hashes.

Now I want to add one more hash to the file.

Is it possible to continue the attack against the new hash file (X + 1) at the progress point that the old one had?

A greeting.

I'm not aware of a way to do this.

But wouldn't this mean that all of your previous attack wouldn't ever be applied to the new hash?

Yes, but I prefer that to having to start from the beginning again.
 
A greeting.

Hi.

I have stopped the attack with the [c]heckpoint command, then replaced the hashes file with one with one more hash, and then restored the session. Everything seems to be working fine and as expected.

A greeting.
