Sorry but: TrueCrypt USB-Drive
#1
I know. I'm sorry. Here I go:

What I've done:
  1. Created an encrypted USB-Drive (2GB) with TrueCrypt 7.1a. Password is 123456789. No options changed.
  2. Created an dd dump of the USB-Drive
Than I used John the Ripper first:
  1. Used truecrypt2john.py to get the hashes: got 6 Hashes, 3 normal, 3 hidden (why?)
  2. Used John with -mask=12345678?d to crack the password.
  3. Got password 123456789 for the first hidden hash (why?). Nonetheless everything fine so far.
Now the hashcat part:
  1. fdisk -l /dev/sdc1 to get the size of my USB-Drive in bytes
  2. sudo dd if=/dev/sdc1 of=./banana/512.dd bs=1 skip=1993276928 count=512 to get the last 512 bytes according to https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=fre...pt_volumes
  3. hashcat -m 6211 ./banana/512.dd -a 3 12345678?d  to crack the password. But nothing is found. Hashcat even tries 123456789 but doesn't recognize it as password.
  4. tried to run hashcat with hashes produced by truecrypt2john.py. Same result.
What am I doing wrong?

I even tried to crack the examples from https://hashcat.net/wiki/doku.php?id=example_hashes, but they work flawlessly. Password is hashcat. Got that.

So I think somethings wrong with my attempt to get the password hashes.
I've also tried:
  • First 512 bytes of USB-Drive
  • First and last 512 bytes of /dev/sdc instead /dev/sdc1
  • complete dd image of USB-Drive


Any hints on what i'm doing wrong?

Using hashcat 4.1.0 on Ubuntu 16.4.
