Hashcat partial hash
#1
Hello community and sorry to be the newbie here who asks questions Smile
I have just a simple question:
It's possible in current binaries to search for a partial sha256? or should i modify the source code?
The mode that interests me it's 1410 (i know the salt) but i have partial part of hash (last 28 chars).
I know that false positives will be high but that doesn't matter.

Thank you

Currently, not really, you would need to make a new plugin to support that partial hash mode.

It is possible to generate all possible hashes for a partial one, but you need to have a big enough part of the hash (4 missing ones for a md5 for example), but in your case, that would just be way too many hashes, so not doable.
