Subject: How To Use the new TrueCrypt Format in JtR

John Users,

I wanted to post a quick note about how I've tested the new TrueCrypt
format  that Alain just recently posted. Here's what I did to build and
test the new format.

1. Get Alain's zip file attached to his original post.

  http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.security.openwall.john.user/5320

2. cp the two c files within the zip to the src folder of john-1.7.9-jumbo-6

3. Build/re-build JtR as you normally would.

4. Build truecrypt_volume2john.c

  gcc truecrypt_volume2john.c -o truecrypt_volume2john

5. Run truecrypt_volume2john on the TrueCrypt volumes you wish to crack.

  truecrypt_volume2john sha512-aes.tc >> tc_john_hashes.txt
  truecrypt_volume2john ripemd160-aes.tc >> tc_john_hashes.txt

  Note: You may do this to multiple TC volumes and append the output.

6. Finally, run JtR against the output file.

  john --wordlist=words.txt --format:tc_whirlpool tc_john_hashes.txt
  john --wordlist=words.txt --format:tc_sha512 tc_john_hashes.txt
  john --wordlist=words.txt --format:tc_ripemd160 tc_john_hashes.txt

7. Here are my performance numbers. Notice it loaded eight hashes. I ran
this on the output from four TC files (but each file may contain a normal
volume and a hidden one), thus there are eight possibilities.

Loaded 8 password hashes with 8 different salts (TrueCrypt [RIPEMD160
AES256_XTS])
123              (truecrypt_normal_volume)
letmein          (truecrypt_normal_volume) // This is a hidden volume
guesses: 2  time: 0:00:00:08 DONE (Sun Jul 22 14:27:08 2012)  c/s: 12.59

Loaded 8 password hashes with 8 different salts (TrueCrypt [SHA512
AES256_XTS])
123              (truecrypt_normal_volume)
guesses: 1  time: 0:00:00:01 DONE (Sun Jul 22 14:27:18 2012)  c/s: 59.09

Loaded 8 password hashes with 8 different salts (TrueCrypt [WHIRLPOOL
AES256_XTS])
123              (truecrypt_normal_volume)
guesses: 1  time: 0:00:00:02 DONE (Sun Jul 22 14:27:33 2012)  c/s: 36.11

I hope this helps John users who may be interested in TC cracking.

Brad
