oclHashcat-plus v0.06 - Worlds fastest md5crypt, phpass, mscash2 and WPA/WPA2 cracker
The Hacker NewsoclHashcat-plus faster than every other WPA cracker. The highly anticipated v0.06 of the Graphics Processing Unit accelerated password cracker tool oclHashcat-plus was released today. What makes it so special about this release is that it now has support for captured Wi-Fi Protected Access handshake cracking on top of all the other algorithms currently supported (MD5, MD5 Crypt, DES Crypt, NTLM, Domain Cached Credentials etc). It cracks WPA at an estimated rate of 0-300% faster than rivals, namely the python WPA cracker pyrit. It is coded in OpenCL so both NVIDIA and AMD devices are supported, however this improvement is more noticeable on AMD GPU devices as well as Multi-GPU system
