PBKDF2-SHA256 Signature unmatched error
#1
Hello!

I am currently working on an assignment where we were given a few thousand of password hashes using various algorithms to crack.

One of the hashes is of signature PDKDF2-SHA256. 

I assumed it would use the mode 10900 (PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256), since this mode works for me in JTR.
The signature (?) prefix on each hash is "$pbkdf2-sha256$29000$".
I know 29000 is just the number of iterations, but running hashcat on my file gives me a "Signature unmatched" error for each line.
I've looked at the "--example" for anything implementing anything that contains "PBKDF2" and "SHA256", but none seem to match the format of the hashes I have.
The "hashid" utility tells me "PBKDF2-SHA256(Generic).
The salt digest (?) seems to be 23 characters long and the hash digest is 44 characters long, for each hash.

Thanks for your help Smile
