This release is mostly a bugfix and maintainance release, plus a small set of new features and a new hash-mode.
We recommend upgrading even if you did not face any errors with v3.00.
Most important changes:
- Added some workarounds to deal with problems caused by broken OpenCL installation on the host system
- Improved rule-engine: Enabled support to use the missing @ rule on GPU
- Improved rule-engine: On Nvidia, the rule-engine got a small performance improvement
New Algorithms:
- Added new hash-mode 13900 = OpenCart
- Added mask display to modes 3, 6, and 7. Allows the user to see the custom character set used during the run
- Make Linux build POSIX compatible; Also allow it to actually compile on musl-libc systems
- Add support to compile on FreeBSD
- Make use of cl_context_properties[] to clCreateContext(), even if OpenCL specification allow the use of NULL
- The Time.Estimated attribute in status display should also show --runtime limit if user set it
- Fix some strict aliasing rule violation on older compilers
- Fix some variable initializers on older compilers
- Replace DARWIN macro with compiler predefined macro __APPLE__
- Replace LINUX macro with compiler predefined macro __linux__
- Allow the use of enc_id == 0 in hash-mode 10600 and 10700 as it takes no part in the actual computation
- Get rid of exit() calls in OpenCL wrapper library with the goal to have a better control which error can be ignored
- Do not error and exit if an OpenCL platform has no devices, just print a warning and continue with the next platform
- Workaround for OpenCL runtimes which do not accept -I parameter in the OpenCL kernel build options
- Workaround for OpenCL runtimes which do accept -I parameter in the OpenCL kernel build options, but do not allow quotes
- Output cracked hashes on Windows using \r\n and not \n
- Replace RegGetValue() with RegQueryValueEx() to enable Windows XP 32 bit compatibility
- Slightly increased NVidias rule-processing performance by using generic instructions instead of byte_perm()
- Add support for @ rule (RULE_OP_MANGLE_PURGECHAR) to use on GPU
- Add support for --outfile (short -o) to be used together with --stdout
- Skip periodic status output whenever --stdout is used together with stdin mode, but no outfile was specified
- Show error message if --show is used together with --outfile-autohex-disable (this is currently not supported)
- Show error message if --skip/--limit is used together with mask files or --increment
- Workaround for NVidia OpenCL runtime bug causing -m 6223 to not crack any hashes even with the correct password candidate
- Fixed a bug where CRAM MD5 checked salt length instead of hash length
- Fixed a bug where hashcat is suppressing --machine-readable output in the final status update
- Fixed a bug where hashcat did not check the return of realpath() and crashes uncontrolled if the path does not exist
- Fixed a bug where hashcat crashes for accessing deallocated buffer if user spams "s" shortly before hashcat shuts down
- Fixed a bug where hashcat crashes in case of a scrypt P setting > 1
- Fixed a bug where hashcat did not correctly use the newly cracked plains whenever --loopback or the induction folder was used
- Fixed a bug where hashcat did not correctly remove hashes of type WPA/WPA2 even if present in potfile
- Fixed a bug where hashcat reported an invalid password for a zero-length password in LM
- Fixed a bug where hashcat did not take into account how long it takes to prepare a session when --runtime is in use
- Fixed a bug where some kernels used COMPARE_M_SIMD instead of COMPARE_S_SIMD in singlehash mode
