    Thread: help finding installed hashcat potfile
Post: RE: help finding installed hashcat potfile

On Unix-likes, it's in a .hashcat directory in the user's home directory. Not sure if this is also true for macOS.

Post: RE: is sorting wordlist by length needed?

This is no longer necessary in modern hashcat. I've added a note to the end of that paragraph to make that explicit. Thanks for the indirect docs-bug report, always appreciated. :D

Following up from your other deleted post, in which you said there are exactly 8 upper and 5 digits. There are probably too many combinations to reasonably exhaust, but to model how many masks woul...

Wordlist-only attacks (without additional work like rules or hybrid masks) cannot reach full benchmark speeds, because not enough work (candidate words) can be supplied to keep up with the speed of th...

Post: RE: Looking to write a rule to replace digits

I think they're trying to replace digits in place, without having to know the text before and after in advance.

Post: RE: Missing characters from hashcat brute-force?

Yes, the default incremental mode is not a full brute force, but rather one that is optimized for likely candidates without being exhaustive: Guess.Mask.......: ?1?2?2?2?2?2?2?3 [8] Guess.Charset....

I'm not aware of a way to do this. But wouldn't this mean that all of your previous attack wouldn't ever be applied to the new hash?

Depends on what you mean by "false positive". :) For some hash types, hashcat will automatically show all collisions that it discovers. (You can also get this behavior for other hash types with --k...

Can you provide an artificial example - one that illustrates your question, but isn't the one you're actually looking for?

    Thread: Custom mask
Post: RE: Custom mask

If you're unsure what the leet options are, toggling them all can be quite keyspace-intensive. You can do it with custom masks, trivial example: -1 a@ -2 3e F?1k?2 ... but you can only use four ...

Hint for calculating total keyspace: https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=%2826%2B10%29%5E11 Divide this by your actual attack speed in hashes per second. For example, if your speed is 200M H/s...

No, SVGA is a very low-level emulated GPU, and does not have OpenCL or CUDA support.
