Also - MAD respect to the guys that develop hashcat. As a budding programmer, I can only IMAGINE the difficulty in implementing something like this, especially in C, and especially considering all the cryptographic algorithms and hash types it supports. Big props to them! 👏

[@HackerSploit]

Definitely mate, the most complicated aspect is handling efficiency and performance.

i think in this 2022, Worldlist attack is just nonsense

Good luck decrypt aes 256 .zip it's now a standard...🤔

[@modbox9560]

Especially with symbolic and 32 random pass

[@growInSecurity]

Giving 2 hints only: 1. $/zip2$ should stay at the end of the file (hard to see it due to the face view) 2. if you are dealing with other hashes like PKZIP (17200) I recommend first update hashcat to the newest version (some of the hashes with outdated versions might be not supported)

[@trietnguyenzan]

How to know the type of hash ?

[@samfisher8864]

@@trietnguyenzan I think from line like: $pkzip$ (but for me unfortunately its not working in hashcat. Will continue trying) and testing until it will work

Thank you so much for providing free quality content. Many people move forward leave behind us after getting popular but you are really good and working hard for us to make many series beginner to advance. Really lots of love end of me and India.❤️❤️

I like to see more of this. I'm always playing with these programs, but your videos give a jump start.

[@chillax1629]

Awesome! Never realized that hashcat has so many options. Thanks for the great explanation!

Would love to see this series continue!

@HackerSploit , you are making amazing videos ! can you please move the bubble with your recording somewhere away from the screen , I thing that your older videos was looking better when you didn't have that bubble.

[@HackerSploit]

Thank you for the feedback, i will not include the facecam in future videos where it may obstruct text/data displayed on the terminal.

Thank you. This content helped me to understand the problem of using common passwords.

Bro do a video on creating an own wordlist in hashcat and cracking zip or rar files which has complex passwords.

Does that also work for protected videos?

What does it mean when the zip hash is extremely long? I followed all the steps.

[@relwinesthak6248]

awesome job bro can u make a series for soc analyst or security analyst

[@jpierce2l33t]

Quick question - and this is just curiosity lol - what's the benefit of using hashcat over just sending the output of zip2john (or RAR) to John the ripper itself? Speed, correctness, usability? I haven't touched cracking passwords in awhile, and this reminded me that I need to catch up on it. I always used John back in the day, and recently got into hashcat a little bit for cracking wifi PID hashes and such. Anyways great video as always, super appreciate the educational content, keep em comin!!!

[@HackerSploit]

Performance, great documentation and support for multiple hash formats.

[@khayla_matthews]

I just learned about this in class recently. john the ripper is easier to use, but hashcat allows for more flexibility. Also, hashcat takes advantage of GPUs for password cracking. this leads to a more powerful performance than jtr. so, if you have a relatively simple password to crack and don't anticipate it taking long, then yes, use jtr. otherwise, hashcat is the superior tool. I was taught to not even use jtr's incremental mode. if you need to brute force a password, just go ahead and use hashcat.

[@jpierce2l33t]

@@khayla_matthews thanks for this response! I never got a notification about it, but just got one from another thread on this video and then looked back through this one lol...sorry I'm a year late! 🤣

[@beastbaby7946]

great vid man, just one thing,can you please hide your facecam when showing your screen as sometimes is covers up some imp stuff

[@davidmalcolm4767]

At 4 minutes 10 seconds into your video you edit hascat.txt but your face is covering the end of the file and I can't see the edit. I understand that you delete the :protected.txt:protected.zip:protected.zip bit but do you also delete the $/zip2$ bit or does this bit need to remain??

[@chandukriish7492]

same doubt

[@crashwindows]

Awesome job bro!!! I look forward to more of the same content.

[@TombRiderJ]

Zip or rar you can't crack the damn password unless its a stupid simple password, otherwise it will take forever for the most complected ones

[@orfeous]

Yeah, I gave up after 5 days

[@Lunoq]

not working :(

[@raiAshwa]

lol I was facing the same issue, been stuck on it since forever, finally had to use hashcat....!!!! BTW have you found the fix ?

[@mnmlxmsi296]

please make a tutorial about cracking 7z file

[@emkjuslen]

Mine generated multiple hashes. The folder contains multiple files

[@ZakZky007]

Worked through a few of your Tuts. Very concise and informative thanks. My john2rar, kicks out 3 hashes for one RAR file. When I run it with a rule and wordlist, I get this error: "* Token length exception: 65/65 hashes This error happens if the wrong hash type is specified, if the hashes are malformed, or if input is otherwise not as expected (for example, if the --username option is used but no username is present)" Can you help with this PLS!

[@waleedtariq2973]

any idea why im getting insanely large hashes ?

[@fu1r4]

How do you get the password if the zip archive contains more than one file and if not all the files are encrypted, but they do have a password? When i try to specify the file for zip2john i only get "...is not encrypted!" even if the file do have a password. 😟

[@uhohwhy]

Just set 10+ char, numeric, symbol pass and none will be able to crack it ever.

[@hoseinkazemi7395]

It was great, great. Thank you, friend. good luck😘😘😘

[@arupsen121]

Hey Alexis bro, Please make videos OSCP series.

[@dizellord]

I'm just curious what is this rockyou dictionary is. I'm also curious how long would it taketo crack complex password that has like 20 characters total from almost all charsets you briefly show in the end

[@_google_user_]

How about split volumes?

[@illegalcoding]

Damn, what theme is this? it looks SO nice

[@eot264]

I'm a newbie here tho... Do you have a tutorial on hashcat itself and how it works. Cause im confused why we're using a wordlist for cracking it.

[@jerfp8026]

Which year of Kali linux you use?

[@mrsinner562]

What about in windows 11,I’m new to this.thank you

[@rabeemohammed5351]

Possible link to a video on how to encrypt the payload from the antivirus

[@parinami3d]

does it work on mac? mac m2 ultra or m3 max can crack faster?

[@BrianHempstead]

What do you do when zip2john doesn't provide you with a hash? Do you just try brute force it with wordlist, or is there a workaround to get the hash?

[@AliYar-Khan]

What if the rockyou wordlist don't work ! Is there any way to crack without wordlist

[@mix7372]

hello dear i have RAR file and i forgot the password can you help me with this please 🙏🏻

[@grover-]

At 4:17 your face blocked the end of the file - could you share what exactly you removed at the file end?

[@WizGamingZone]

Just wondering are you running kali linux on a VM or bare metal? if VM, What VM is that? Thank You.

[@8080VB]

Im assuming we can't crack with hashcat if your having a Pentium dual core.

[@markstevenson621]

Does this work need to get in a rar file but it's protected from cpygames

[@Pyrotechnics.sweden]

when i type zip2john "then any command" nothing happens it says (-bash: zip2john: command not found) and i've installed it correctly might be bcs im in a "terminal" om chomreos?

[@nicatshare6103]

thanks bro, but i need for kali linux . how can we do this in kali linux?

yes more of these mate

Generating a word list with a character set. Isn't that a rainbow table?

[@sodiumtechnologiesug366]

What is the hashing is used in windows

[@beardedgaming1337]

i have a .zip that is passworded. lets me open to see file names but not extract. password is unknown, idk what type of zip it is and the password could possibly not be english. file came from japan but all file names are english so... id probably run this program in a vm box as i dont have a linux box. think this program might work?

[@whynot6546]

what if the encrypted is a folder that contains some other files? I tried and didn't get the answer, can anyone help?

[@_QWERTY2254]

110kH/s with i5 cpu, that means ~10MH/s for an average gpu 👍

Hello, I have a winrar file, I forgot the password, can you help me to open it?

[@kudakwashe95]

“Not enough allocatable device memory for this attack.” Can some help me with this part

[@HackerSploit]

It means you do not have enough VRAM to perform the attack, this is usually the case if you are running Hashcat from within a VM where you can only allocate a maximum of 128MB or VRAM (in the case of VirtualBox).

[@kudakwashe95]

HackerSploit thanks... I am using a vm for school .im noticing it has limitations ... I’ll switch over to a bootable usb🙏🏼

[@jackeyzhu3702]

Thank you for the awesome video. One question: as it’s a zip file why use offline crack methods instead of online ones?

[@zilog1]

If you actually have to ask that question, you dont need to be going into cyber security or messing with any of this. think hard on why you just asked that....

[@Phantom-el6oe]

John outputs a massive hash (over one thousand characters at least) when used on my old archive with pictures from 2014. Any idea what this can cause?

[@lwafimohamed3384]

What about more strong password ?

[@mohitharihar1262]

yo bro, really thankya. Big respect

[@ragirivamsi5737]

No password hashes is loaded see faq i got this error in John the ripper how to solve it please make a video

[@kingofflames738]

when I type "$ zip2john RARname > ziphash" in the cmd it says the command is not recognized.

[@pandaaaa7584]

yo can you help me with this zip file, I am trying to crack I cant get the exact hash of the zip cause there are multiple files inside of it. It kept telling me to use the -o command cause assuming that the pass is all the same with each file I just need to get the hash of one file and get the pass of that file and everything else should also open. I am still kinda new to this so I really need some help cause there arent any videos crack open zips with multiple files inside so I am really struggling here

[@DevionArts]

There are multiple software which can be used using user friendly interfaces and we can easily break passwords by different methods...... you using easiest way and its not a big deal ......... why wasting time with this tool ...... bogus .. and time consuming ........ smple use open source crack software rather than dos commands

[@SuperKundan1]

Can I crack RAR. file password with 32 unique character.. I really for that password which I saved in 2013..
