hcxtools
Small set of tools convert packets from captures (h = hash, c = capture, convert and calculate candidates, x = different hashtypes) for the use with latest hashcat or John the Ripper. The tools are 100% compatible to hashcat and John the Ripper and recommended by hashcat. This branch is pretty closely synced to hashcat git branch (that means: latest hcxtools matching on latest hashcat beta) and John the Ripper git branch ("bleeding-jumbo").
Support for hashcat hash-modes: 2500, 2501, 4800, 5500, 12000, 16100, 16800, 16801
Support for John the Ripper hash-modes: WPAPSK-PMK, PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA1, chap, netntlm, tacacs-plus
After capturing, upload the "uncleaned" cap here (https://wpa-sec.stanev.org/?submit) to see if your ap or the client is vulnerable by using common wordlists. Convert the cap to hccapx and/or to WPA-PMKID-PBKDF2 hashline (16800) and check if wlan-key or plainmasterkey was transmitted unencrypted.
Brief description
Multiple stand-alone binaries - designed to run on Arch Linux.
All of these utils are designed to execute only one specific function.

Compile
Simply run:
make
make install (as super user)
Requirements
-
Linux (recommended Arch Linux, but other distros should work, too (no support for other distributions).
-
libopenssl and openssl-dev installed
-
librt and librt-dev installed (should be installed by default)
-
zlib and zlib-dev installed (for gzip compressed cap/pcap/pcapng files)
-
libcurl and curl-dev installed (used by whoismac and wlancap2wpasec)
-
libpthread and pthread-dev installed (used by hcxhashcattool)
To install requirements on Kali use the following 'apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl-dev zlib1g-dev'
Useful scripts
| Script | Description |
|---|---|
| piwritecard | Example script to restore SD-Card |
| piwreadcard | Example script to backup SD-Card |
Notice
Most output files will be appended to existing files (with the exception of .cap files).
