Association Attack with Hashcat in a Distributed Environment
Wagner, Lukáš ; Veselý, Vladimír (referee) ; Hranický, Radek (advisor)
The Fitcrack project is a distributed system for cracking cryptographic hashes developed at FIT BUT. The Hashcat tool is used to crack passwords on the computational units. This tool added a new attack mode in 2020 called an association attack. This attack is based on knowledge of a likely password, which is extensively modified during the attack. The goal of this work is to design and implement an extension to the Fitcrack project, which enables the use of the association attack and solves its workload distribution in this distributed environment. Association attack requires modification of distribution methods used by other attacks. Such new methods are proposed and implemented. Implementation is later experimentally verified and conclusion is drawn.
