Some more info..
The hash is derived via code. I have the DES key and iv. The password, which is exactly 8 characters is encrypted with DES. Then the first 8 bytes of the DES ciphertext is hashed with SHA1. I have this hash.
So, I'm thinking I can do a hashcat crack using a custom charset of 0x00 - 0xFF. This is a long charset.
I'm unsure of how to pass in this charset to hashcat. Will hashcat take a hexstring like this:
00010203040506...FF? Or is there a better way?
Thanks much. I saw that hashcat has a charset of 0xC0 - FF, I am curious why the first 0xBF bytes are omitted.
