pkg: hashcat

hashcat cracks hundreds of hash types at high speed using GPUs, with dictionary, rule, mask and hybrid attacks.

Syntax

hashcat -m {mode} -a {attack} {hashfile} {wordlist}

Example

hashcat -m 0 -a 0 hashes.txt rockyou.txt

Cracks raw MD5 (-m 0) with a straight dictionary attack (-a 0).

Options & flags

What each switch does. Toggle them in the builder below to assemble a command.

`-m` <0>	Hash mode/type number (0=MD5, 1000=NTLM, 1800=sha512crypt, 22000=WPA).
`-a` <0>	Attack mode (0=dictionary, 1=combinator, 3=mask/brute, 6=hybrid).
`-o` <cracked.txt>	Write cracked results to a file.
`-r` <best64.rule>	Rules file to mangle the wordlist.
`--show`	Show already-cracked hashes from the potfile.
`--force`	Ignore warnings (e.g. unsupported device).
`-w` <3>	Workload profile 1-4 (4 = max GPU).
`--increment` <value>	Enable incremental mask lengths.
