The video demonstrates how to crack password-protected ZIP and RAR files using Hashcat. The process involves using Zip2John utility and understanding the syntax while specifying the hashcat options, hash file, and attack mode. The video explains that when cracking RAR5 files, hash mode 13000 must be used, and one can perform brute force attacks or use a pre-built dictionary file to crack the hash. It also highlights the importance of going through the Hashcat documentation while using the tool. The video concludes by encouraging feedback on the video series.
In this section, HackerSploit explains how to crack password-protected ZIP and RAR archives using Hashcat. He first creates a password-protected ZIP archive and obtains the hash of that archive using the Zip2John utility that comes with John the Ripper. He then proceeds to remove the unnecessary information from the hash file and starts the cracking process using Hashcat by specifying the hashcat options, the hash file, and the attack mode. He also emphasizes the importance of understanding the syntax and going through the Hashcat documentation.
In this section, the video explains how to crack a password-protected ZIP file using hashcat. The process involves specifying the hash type and the attack mode using the "m" and "a" options respectively. The video then demonstrates how to crack a password-protected RAR file using the utility "rar to john" to obtain the hash. However, the video notes that the previously shown method of cracking RAR files with John the Ripper did not work, and the issue is addressed to ensure that users can properly crack RAR files in the future.
In this section, the video shows how to crack password-protected RAR files using Hashcat. To begin with, it is important to modify the hash to get rid of the archive name because we don't require it when cracking with Hashcat. The video then explains that when cracking RAR5 files, you need to use the hash mode 13000 as opposed to 13600 for ZIP archives. Next, the video explains that you can perform brute force attacks or use a pre-built dictionary file to crack the hash. The video concludes by highlighting that Hashcat is an advanced tool that offers the flexibility to generate word lists based on specific parameters and ends by thanking the audience for watching and encouraging feedback on the video series.
