in all other cases (files, non-booting partitions) you need the first 512 Bytes of the file or partition.

if TrueCrypt uses a hidden partition, you need to skip the first 64K bytes (65536) and extract the next 512 bytes.ĭd if=hashcat_ripemd160_AES_hidden.raw of=hashcat_ripemd160_AES_hidden.tc bs=1 skip=65536 count=512.

Since a track is usually 63 sectors long (1 sector is 512 bytes), the volume header is at sector 63 – 1 (62). For TrueCrypt versions before 7.0 there might be different offsets.Explanation for this is that the volume header (which stores the hash info) is located at the last sector of the first track of the system drive. the computer starts with the TrueCrypt Boot Loader) you need to extract 512 bytes starting with offset 31744 (62 * 512 bytes). The Hashcat Wiki has the following explanation: In the case of full-disk encryption, you will also need to extract the 512 bytes however, the extraction process is somewhat more complicated. If you are attacking an encrypted container (the file), all you need are the first 512 bytes of the file. What we did have a problem with was producing the required hash file to launch the attack. In this regard, Hashcat is a fast and mature solution for breaking encrypted containers. We didn’t have much trouble running the attack on the hash file extracted from the VeraCrypt container. On paper, Hashcat had been offering support for VeraCrypt containers long before we did it in Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery, so we expect a well-ironed solution. In the third case study, we’ll try breaking the password to a VeraCrypt container.

We’ve been unable to launch the attack on the ZIP file with Hashcat.Įlcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery was able to open that ZIP archive and run the attack in a matter of seconds.

Unfortunately, for -m 13600 you need the whole data_buf (encrypted and compressed data) to verify if the password is correct. Hashcat supports a data length of about 8 KB (compressed of course) for -m 13600 = Winzip We tried finding a solution ( here and here), but the only kind of solution we found was this: The tool had crashed with the following error:Ĭounted lines in c:\hashcat-6.1.1\z2.hash… Oversized line detected! Truncated 402236 bytes However, we could not make Hashcat to open the file. The resulting hash file extracted with zip2john is about 2MB. The last step of the attack calculates hash sum of the entire encrypted file. When attacking ZIP encryption, a single small hash file is not enough. This time around, you’ll need zip2john, which is a part of the John the Ripper package. Hashcat requires the use of a third-party tool to extract hashes from the target. The second case study deals with a ZIP archive protected with AES-256 encryption. Note that the same document can be recovered in a matter of minutes if you use the Thunder Tables attack in Advanced Office Password Breaker. The estimated recovery time was 48 hours using a CPU alone. Hashcat started the attack on the password considering the (high) speed of the attack, we estimated the attack to complete in about 1 to 1.5 years.Įlcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery correctly recognized the file format and offered an option to brute-force the 40-bit encryption keys. After processing the document with office2hashcat.py, we’ve got the hash. The file is protected with a 40-bit RC4 key.

In the first case study, we’ll try to break a document in the Office 97/2003 format (the “.doc” extension the file might have been saved in “Compatibility mode” by a newer version of Microsoft Office). Assuming that the Python installer had the required modules, you’re good to go and ready to launch an attack. So you have successfully installed Hashcat, git and Python. Case study 1: breaking an Office 97/2003 document In this study, we tried breaking passwords to several common formats, including Word document, an encrypted ZIP archive, and a VeraCrypt container. We’ve already compared the features, the price and performance of the two tools.
