crack-hashcat
Advanced password recovery and hash cracking tool supporting multiple algorithms and attack modes. Use when: (1) Performing authorized password auditing and security assessments, (2) Recovering passwords from captured hashes in forensic investigations, (3) Testing password policy strength and complexity, (4) Validating encryption implementations, (5) Conducting security research on cryptographic hash functions, (6) Demonstrating password weakness in penetration testing reports.
crack-7z-hash
This skill provides guidance for cracking 7z archive password hashes. It should be used when tasks involve extracting hashes from password-protected 7z archives, selecting appropriate cracking tools, and recovering passwords through dictionary or brute-force attacks. Applicable to password recovery, security testing, and CTF challenges involving encrypted 7z files.
OSCP Penetration Testing Methodology
This skill should be used when the user asks to "perform OSCP-style penetration testing", "enumerate network services", "escalate privileges on Windows or Linux", "conduct Active Directory attacks", "transfer files between systems", "crack password hashes", or "execute lateral movement techniques". It provides a comprehensive methodology and command reference for offensive security certification preparation and real-world penetration testing.
cracking-passwords
Crack password hashes using hashcat/john, perform password spraying, brute force authentication, and execute pass-the-hash attacks. Use when cracking credentials or performing password-based attacks.
extracting-credentials-from-memory-dump
Extract cached credentials, password hashes, Kerberos tickets, and authentication tokens from memory dumps using Volatility and Mimikatz for forensic investigation.
detecting-dcsync-attack-in-active-directory
Detect DCSync attacks where adversaries abuse Active Directory replication privileges to extract password hashes by monitoring for non-domain-controller accounts requesting directory replication via DsGetNCChanges.
