why Hashcat v6.2.5 is slower than v5.1.0
#3
@Snoopy
Thank you for reply.
Simplicity is the reason for -a 3 (BruteForce) instead of -a 0 (Wordlist).
This way you can enter the password directly into the command line.

With -a 0 you need, first, create wordlist (dictionary) with passwords.
Second, you need to put the filename of wordlist into the command line.

If instead of
hashcat.exe  -D 1  -a 3  -m 22000  "WPA*01*ca5396d611cf330aebefd48ebbfb0e63*020000000001*020000000020*61703031***"  "12345678"

you try to enter
hashcat.exe  -D 1  -a 0  -m 22000  "WPA*01*ca5396d611cf330aebefd48ebbfb0e63*020000000001*020000000020*61703031***"  "12345678"

you will get
12345678: No such file or directory

For clarity I created dictionary file wordlist.txt containing three lines
1st-Line
12345678
3rd-Line-End

Then I tested with -a 0 and got similar results, please see below.
This time I used
  • Windows 7 (on Windows 10 the results are similar)
  • hashcat64.exe v5.1.0
  • hashcat.exe  v6.2.5-207-gac1997027 from https://hashcat.net/beta/
