# Password Cracking ## Identify the hash (By Length) **Hash Lengths** | Hash | Size | | ------------------- | -------- | | MD5 Hash Length | 16 Bytes | | SHA-1 Hash Length | 20 Bytes | | SHA-256 Hash Length | 32 Bytes | | SHA-512 Hash Length | 64 Bytes | ## **Tools To identify hashes** ### **hash-identifier** Builtin in Kali. Usage: `hash-identifier` ### **Hash-Buster** Link: **Usage:** `buster -s ` ### Decodify It can detect and decode encoded strings, recursively. Link: ## **Empty hashes** Administrator:500:aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee:8118cb8789b3a147c790db402b016a08::: Administrator = user 500 = RID Aad3b435b51404eeaad3b435b51404ee = empty LM hash ## Hash Examples Likely just use hash-identifier for this but here are some example hashes: | Hash | Example | | ----------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | MD5 Hash Example | 8743b52063cd84097a65d1633f5c74f5 | | MD5 $PASS:$SALT Example | 01dfae6e5d4d90d9892622325959afbe:7050461 | | MD5 $SALT:$PASS | f0fda58630310a6dd91a7d8f0a4ceda2:4225637426 | | SHA1 Hash Example | b89eaac7e61417341b710b727768294d0e6a277b | | SHA1 $PASS:$SALT | 2fc5a684737ce1bf7b3b239df432416e0dd07357:2014 | | SHA1 $SALT:$PASS | cac35ec206d868b7d7cb0b55f31d9425b075082b:5363620024 | | SHA-256 |
