Hey folks,
I got a PDF 1.7 file encrypted with a password I know. Tried to crack it with hashcat 6.2.6 on windows and also tried with hashcat 6.2.3 on Linux. Here's the deal:
Adobe Reader says this file is version 1.7 encrypted with RC4 (40bit) but according to hashcat example hashes, this should be PDF 1.1 - 1.3 which is odd...
However hashcat nor john can't detect the hashtype. The hash has been generated using pdf2john utility.
I've tried all available to PDF hashcat modes and none of them worked.
I'd appreciate a nudge.
