Info:

I wrote this tool due to the limited selection of programs that can crack/verify argon2id hashes. Hashcat currently lacks support for any argon algo, and even though John the Ripper does support it in its bleeding-edge version, the high memory requirements of argon2id make it impractical for handling higher-cost memory argon2id hashes that demand more memory than most GPUs have. If your GPU allows it, I suggest running argon2id hashes with JTR first. If not, Argon2id Hash Cracker may be your only choice as it is only limited by your system RAM and CPU.

Example hash: $argon2id$v=19$m=65536,t=4,p=1$d2tycHJEYlBuenNEOUpqNg$pEXhocM661JmS3oRCR6MPQ

Usage:

./argon_cracker -w wordlist.txt -h hashes.txt

Change Log:

Compile from source:

  • If you want the latest features, compiling from source is the best option since the release version may run several revisions behind the source code.
  • This assumes you have Go and Git installed
    • git clone https://github.com/cyclone-github/argon_cracker.git # clone repo
    • cd argon_cracker # enter project directory
    • go mod init argon_cracker # initialize Go module (skips if go.mod exists)
    • go mod tidy # download dependencies
    • go build -ldflags="-s -w" . # compile binary in current directory
    • go install -ldflags="-s -w" . # compile binary and install to $GOPATH
    • ./argon_cracker -h {hash file} -w {wordlist file} -t {CPU threads to use (optional)}
  • Compile from source code how-to:
