It should be possible to port the code from oclHashcat to hashcat. But I am to busy with other features. If you guys can convince radix, matrix or xandadrel your chances are good
WPA/WPA2 in hashcat

Sounds good. But I've seen your reply in 15 chars limitation topic and I think it would be better if you'll aim at more chacters support in oclHashcat than at applying this algorithm in hashcat.
That's why I started this topic

I think this feature / ability in hashcat would be a good thing even if hashcat-plus could test longer passwords.
People who perhaps cannot afford a GPU and just use hashcat as a demonstration / learning tool could show how WPA is broken with a pre defined password and password list on a humble laptop. Not everyone using the WPA cracking ability is testing unknown networks. It is a powerful lesson to be able to demonstrate to someone just how password lists work on seemingly long and secure WPA passwords. I believe hashcat and hashcat-plus should promote themselves as security "awareness" tools. It is not all about hacking and illegal access to unknown networks, but more of a learning and demonstration tool. Just imagine the impact on people who are not security aware of a low budget CPU only laptop breaking a 30 character password from a word list !

I agree. Adding WPA would be a great addition to hashcat. There are existing "slow" algos supported currently, so in my mind it's not an issue of performance but features -- which hashcat has a lot of.
