Cracking Excel Sheet Protection Passwords
#1
I am attempting to crack an Excel sheet protection password (**Not file encryption on open).

Here is what I have done so far.

Renamed the file.xlsx to file.zip.  I then open the zip and browse to the file sheet1.  The contents of the file are as follows (masked, of course).

sheetProtection algorithmName="SHA-512" hashValue="iE1y5m8c********************ql1scF7sAK8itsCDyRxGIxwwf5mX0VOa368v2HdtvWq/Pl3b7LA20dZ4Jg==" saltValue="X4y+**********mOqd4Ftg=="

I am at a loss now as to how to crack the hash.  I have tried a few things, but I obviously need help Smile.

Thank You.
