hashcat cracking luks

luks encryption lets create an encrypted container and toss some data in it… $ dd if=/dev/urandom of=test bs=1M count=100 $ cryptsetup luksFormat test #use password password $ cryptsetup luksOpen test tmp $ xxd -l 512 /dev/mapper/tmp # is random data at this point $ mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/tmp # use the same file system that is used by your system/device $ xxd -l 512 /dev/mapper/tmp # should no longer be random data $ cryptsetup luksClose tmp After it is created if we wanted to crack it with hashcat then we would just need to grab some header data and run it though...
