Sorry to be a little vague about his for now but I thought I would just ask this quickly before making any further investigation myself.
I seem to be having trouble with the prefix (prepend) rule when using oclHashcat-plus. I have been testing on MD5’s for simplicity as I normally work on WPA only. I was trying to modify some of my rule lists and noticed this problem.
My problem seems to be when using oclHashcat-plus .7 on an old XP pro computer and prefixing more than 2 characters using rules. oclHashcat-plus fails to find the password.
For example, my password list contains the word “test†and my rule file contains ^1^2^3.
I MD5’d 123test and tried to find the password using the above password list and rule file. Hashcat failed to find it, however I can find other test words with less than 3 prefixed characters such as “1testâ€.
Can anyone please take the time to see if this happens to them or let me know if I am doing something wrong ?
I do know how to basically use hashcat and I have no trouble with suffixed rules, just prefixed ones.
Thank you.
