AxCrypt v2

[lapolis]

Now you got me wondering which version of AxCrypt hashcat supports. I'm not that much familiar with the AxCrypt implementation and the version covered.

But this question is kind of contradicting: https://hashcat.net/forum/thread-9434.html


I think if axcrypt2john.py gives you "$axcrypt$*1*" hashes (the 1 is important for the version number), it will be the old AxCrypt 1.

We should probably update the name of the format in the --help etc to reflect this and...

we should probably contact FistOurs from https://github.com/Fist0urs/AxSuite that has helped us implement the already supported AxCrypt hash format.

Could you do these steps:
1. make a github issue to suggest changing "AxCrypt" to "AxCrypt 1" and "AxCrypt in-memory SHA1" to "AxCrypt 1 in-memory SHA1"
2. create a new github issue to ask for AxCrypt 2 support
3. try to contact FistOurs (the author of https://github.com/Fist0urs/AxSuite) and ask them if they can help us find out the differences and maybe implement this new format in hashcat

Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I will do it by the end of the day!

About axcrypt2john.py you are right. If the the .axx file has been encrypted with the old AxCrypt the hash is "$axcrypt$*1*". In my case I encrypted it with the new AxCrypt so it give me  "$axcrypt$*2*" which is not supported.

Edited: looks like there is no contact email on github for FistOurs.
