Proper mask

[The_Immortal]

Hi there!

I'm a totally newbie so I'm asking for you help...

I have a md5-file with passwords "????-????-????-????", where ? is 0123456789ABCDEF.

So I'm trying to bruteforce via a mask:

Code:

>hashcat64 -m 0 -a 3 -i --increment-min=19 --increment-max=19 work.md5 ?H?H?H?H-?H?H?H?H-?H?H?H?H-?H?H?H?H hashcat (v5.1.0) starting... * Device #1: WARNING! Kernel exec timeout is not disabled.             This may cause "CL_OUT_OF_RESOURCES" or related errors.             To disable the timeout, see: https://hashcat.net/q/timeoutpatch OpenCL Platform #1: NVIDIA Corporation ====================================== * Device #1: GeForce GTX 1080 Ti, 2816/11264 MB allocatable, 28MCU Hashes: 99 digests; 99 unique digests, 1 unique salts Bitmaps: 16 bits, 65536 entries, 0x0000ffff mask, 262144 bytes, 5/13 rotates Applicable optimizers: * Zero-Byte * Early-Skip * Not-Salted * Not-Iterated * Single-Salt * Brute-Force * Raw-Hash Minimum password length supported by kernel: 0 Maximum password length supported by kernel: 256 ATTENTION!

How to fix the overflow error? Or is not a feasible task even for md5?

Thank you!

if you calculate how many passwords you are trying you will see that you are getting 16 to the power 16 or 18446744073709551616 passwords (18 billion billion).

On this post https://hashcat.net/forum/thread-8428.html you can see that 2x tesla v100 can do 100.1 GH/s for MD5. It would take that system 6 years to run through this space (assuming it can maintain a steady pace of 100 GH/s).

What you are searching is just too big, there is no way to fix the overflow error. The only thing you can do is test smaller ranges.
