MSCACHEv1 Line-Length Exception when username exceeds 12 Characters
#1
Hi guys,

I'm using oclHashcat-Plus 0.14 hand having trouble when cracking some MSCACHEv1 hashes.

All usernames are converted to lowercase and in the following format:

hash:username(in lowercase)

All hashes with usernames that are 12 characters or less crack fine, using both dictionary and mask attack.

However, I get a Line-Length exception when a hash has a username that is more than 12 characters. For example, I have a file with 3 MSCAHCEv1 hashes. When loading the file into Hashcat, it accepts the 12 character username and cracks it, but rejects the usernames that are 16 and 18 characters long.

Is this a bug or is there something I have not accounted for? I have done a lot of Googling and can't find why this is happening....Unless it is something to do with the salting process, where Hashcat can't handle long usernames.

Any help would be much appreciated.
