Unknown encryption & it's salted weird
#1
I found a 15yr old file that is encrypted and wanted to try to crack it but, hashcat throws a token length exception error.
Here is a portion of the hash:
CRACKME.7z:$7z$1$19$0$$8$47c6fc3882ca60e10000000000000000$374737506$
I wanted to confirm if this is md5 or possibly something else.
I plan on using 2 Xenon processors for this, I'm sure it'll take a few days or months.


If i could get some guidance on how to proceed with this it would be much appreciated.

Look for 7-zip options.
