Full Version: PRINCE creating dups
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
for example i have a wordlist containing the following:
Code:
my
password
is
the
best

but i get a lot of dups even though the wordlist itself has unique words:
Code:
mypasswordisthebest
mypasswordisthebest
mypasswordisthebest
mypasswordisthebest
mypasswordisthebest
mypasswordisthebest

hashcat-cli64.bin -a 6 --stdout example.dict | wc -l
124184
hashcat-cli64.bin -a 6 --stdout example.dict | sort -u | wc -l
113987

any way to de-dup this?
It's not about prince, it's about hashcat CPU. You can post a trac ticket if you want

Quote:root@ht:~/princeprocessor# ./pp64.bin < wordlist | grep mypasswordisthebest | wc -l
1
does this mean it's better to use standalone prince and then pipe to hashcat vs. -a 6 mode?
Since piping is considerably slower it's probably still faster to use the integrated mode.
Perhaps I've misunderstood the hashcat status but I thought the 113986 number is total words in the wordlist? It would appear the integrated prince produced more chains than standalone version.

integrated prince = 113986
standalone prince = 5638

Code:
forumhero@cpx1:~$ cat md5.test.hash
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

forumhero@cpx1:~$ cat example.dict
my
password
is
the
best

forumhero@cpx1:~$ pp64.bin < example.dict | wc -l
5638

forumhero@cpx1:~$ hashcat-0.49/hashcat-cli64.bin -a 6 md5.test.hash example.dict

It depends on some default values. The ones in standalone prince are set to a lower value than on hashcat cpu.

However, it does not matter. The user is supposed to use prince with a dictionary of 100k-10m words and in this case the total number is so high that it will run forever (regardless of the speed you guess).
Both problems from this thread and the memory problem from a different thread should be fixed in latest beta version
