How to crack md5 hash where long cleartext is *almost* known?
#1
Hi,

I have unsalted md5 hashes of longer-than-usual-passwords strings -- think of SMS or Twitter messages -- where I know more or less the cleartext, but not exactly.

For example I have the md5 hash <removed by philsmd> and know that the cleartext string is similar to "this is a example String?". How can I get hashcat to find the true cleartext, which is "this is an Example string!"? In this example one char changed from lower case to upper case, one char was added and one special char changed.

I'd like to have a way to automatically modify the string in 1, 2 or even 3 positions with changing upper/lower cases and adding/deleting a character. Is that possible with hashcat?
