Cracking Captured File
#1
Hi so I recently tried to use hashcat to crack a wifi password with the following command:


hashcat.exe -m 22000 hash.hc22000 -1 ?d?l?u -a 3 ?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1?1


but the output shows the same error over and over:


OpenCL API (OpenCL 3.0 CUDA 12.5.78) - Platform #1 [NVIDIA Corporation]

The charset you defined is ?d?l?u, which is 10+26+26 possible characters. If you then take the length of your mask in characters, 12, the total amount of passwords your attack would be trying is (10 + 26 + 26) ^ 12, which is roughly 3226266762397899821056 candidate passwords, which is completely impossible to search, hence why Hashcat isn't even trying to start, because the attack wouldn't even finish in 100 lifetimes.

Oh that makes sense. Thanks for your answer.
