Hey all-
I'm trying to solve a passphrase used on a Mac running Mavericks (10.9, so it's SALTED-SHA512-PBKDF2.) I already know the two words used, but it's possible that numbers/symbols are inserted where the vowels are. For example, the two words used are "bear" and "hater." (If you've seen the Colbert Report, you'll understand!
However, it could be "b3@rhater," "BeArh@t3R," "bearHater" etc. etc.
Assuming only the vowels "e" and "a" are replaced by symbols and some letters may or may not be capitalized... how do I even begin?
