backslash(\) slow down md5 speed
#1
hello again Smile

firstly salt info:

salt1:\337
salt2:\245\144\076\274\375\145\313\316\251\071\157\227\307\323\251\005

im trying recover salt md5 hash but there is no option in hashcat for that salt, md5(salt1.pass.salt2) and I did just little changes and its working right now BUT that speed its really slow..

and I realized what is the problem.

once I'm using hashtype:10 for md5 salt well this is like md5(pass.salt) and then I created text file for hash its like that

pass: (salt2)

and using attack with that mask  (salt1)?d?d?d?d?d?d

BUT its very slow because when I add salt1 I think problem is backslash(\) speed decreased very much

any suggestion thanks Sad

Static prefixes in a mask attack slow down the attack, that's a known limitation in hashcat. Avoid static prefixes if possible and try to change your attack.

Worked like hell!!!! thank you man

I changed hashtype 10 to 20 md5(salt.pass)

and its worked

edit: not too much different but its ok Big Grin
