hashcat v3.30
#1


The refactorization of version 3.20 was so extreme it was almost impossible to not bring in a few bugs. 
This version 3.30 is mostly about bugfixes, but there's also some new features and a new hash-mode.
I recommend upgrading even if you did not face any errors with older versions.
Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release!!!

Features:
  • Files: Use $HEX[...] in case the password includes the separater character, increases potfile reading performance
  • Files: If the user specifies a folder to scan for wordlists instead of directly a wordlist, then ignore the hidden files
  • Loopback: Include passwords for removed hashes present in the potfile to next loopback iteration
  • New option --progress-only: Quickly provides ideal progress step size and time to process based on the user options, then quit
  • Status screen: Reenabled automatic status screen display in case of stdin used
  • Truecrypt/Veracrypt: Use CRC32 to verify headers instead of fuzzy logic, greatly reduces false positives from 18:2^48 to 3:2^64
  • WPA cracking: Reuse PBKDF2 intermediate keys if duplicate essid is detected


Algorithms:
  • Added hash-mode 1300 = SHA-224


Fixed Bugs:
  • Fixed buffer overflow in status screen display in case of long non-utf8 string
  • Fixed buffer overflow in plaintext parsing code: Leading to segfault
  • Fixed custom char parsing code in maskfiles in --increment mode: Custom charset wasn't used
  • Fixed display screen to show input queue when using custom charset or rules
  • Fixed double fclose() using AMDGPU-Pro on sysfs compatible platform: Leading to segfault
  • Fixed hash-mode 11400 = SIP digest authentication (MD5): Cracking of hashes which did not include *auth* or *auth-int* was broken
  • Fixed hex output of plaintext in case --outfile-format 4, 5, 6 or 7 was used
  • Fixed infinite loop when using --loopback in case all hashes have been cracked
  • Fixed kernel loops in --increment mode leading to slower performance
  • Fixed mask length check in hybrid attack-modes: Do not include hash-mode dependant mask length checks
  • Fixed parsing of hashes in case the last line did not include a linefeed character
  • Fixed potfile loading to accept blank passwords
  • Fixed runtime limit: No longer required so sample startup time after refactorization


Workarounds added:
  • Workaround added for Intel OpenCL runtime: GPU support is broken, skip the device unless user forces to enable it


Technical:
  • Building: Added hashcat32.dll and hashcat64.dll makefile targets for building hashcat windows libraries
  • Building: Added production flag in Makefile to disable all the GCC compiler options needed only for development
  • Building: Removed access to readlink() on FreeBSD
  • Building: For CYGWIN prefer to use "opencl.dll" (installed by drivers) instead of optional "cygOpenCL-1.dll"
  • Events: Added new event EVENT_WEAK_HASH_ALL_CRACKED if all hashes have been cracked during weak hash check
  • Hardware management: Switched matching ADL device with OpenCL device by using PCI bus, device and function
  • Hardware management: Switched matching NvAPI device with OpenCL device by using PCI bus, device and function
  • Hardware management: Switched matching NVML device with OpenCL device by using PCI bus, device and function
  • Hardware management: Switched matching xnvctrl device with OpenCL device by using PCI bus, device and function
  • Hardware management: Removed *throttled* message from NVML as this created more confusion than it helped
  • Hash Parser: Improved error detection of invalid hex characters where hex character are expected
  • OpenCL Runtime: Updated AMDGPU-Pro driver version check, do warn if version 16.50 is detected which is known to be broken
  • OpenCL Runtime: Updated hashcat.hctune for Iris Pro GPU on OSX
  • Potfile: The default potfile suffix changed but the note about was missing. The "hashcat.pot" became "hashcat.potfile"
  • Potfile: Added old potfile detection, show warning message
  • Returncode: Added dedicated returncode (see docs/status_codes.txt) for shutdowns caused by --runtime and checkpoint keypress
  • Sanity: Added sanity check to disallow --speed-only in combination with -i
  • Sanity: Added sanity check to disallow --loopback in combination with --runtime
  • Threads: Replaced all calls to ctime() with ctime_r() to ensure thread safety
  • Threads: Replaced all calls to strerror() with %m printf() GNU extension to ensure thread safety

Thanks to all hashcat's devs and contributers/reporters on forum/github/irc !!!

This release includes some very crucial/important fixes/features

... and of course: thank you atom
#3
Thank you very much! It just solved my issue with CPU and GPU cracking...
After installing CPU drivers everything went south, I was very close to remove all the drivers and start from scratch..
Thank you again!
#4
Great! No more false positives (most likely that is)!

Impressed. Thank you all.
#5
Working awesome !!!  Thank you Smile
#6
Awesome, this totally solved my problem.. Hashcat was "stop working" sometimes Sad
#7
Awesome ! Thank you !
#8
Many thanks to the team !
Will test it ASAP and publish benchmark.
