While working on another project, I was attempting to implement OMEN into my cracking chain.
I found that all the previous OMEN versions, the original C and the pyOMEN, have issues compiling, running, or other wise being easy to work with.
To remedy the issue, I pulled the white paper and (yes with the help of CLAUDE) rebuilt the omen markov generator and pipeline into hashcat.
Thought I would share as it immediately improved my cracking campaign results.
Why OMEN, as shown in the results, OMEN is significantly better at predicting passwords over PRINCE (I still use both, but options are good). The recode allowed for limitation of the older programs to be fixed without debugging.
I’ll be adding a few more parts such as streaming to a chunked RAM file to increase throughput down the road.
