Subject: Fwd: [john-contest] mscash2 / hmac-md5 ambiguity

It's more appropriate for john-dev, but beware: I only checked it with 
contest version of john.

Hi!

mscash2 hashes in their canonical form are nevertheless accepted as
hmac-md5:

$ cat mscash2.john
chatelain:$DCC2$10240#chatelain#e4e15fdfafc8e715da9edec3611bfbff
$ john mscash2.john
Warning: detected hash type "mscash2", but the string is also recognized
as "hmac-md5"
Use the "--format=hmac-md5" option to force loading these as that type
instead
Loaded 1 password hash (M$ Cache Hash 2 (DCC2) PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA-1

$ john --format=hmac-md5 mscash2.john

IMHO that's not very good.
