Cyclone - hashgen

[Cyclone]

Hashgen is a simple CLI hash generator that is cross compiled for linux, Windows & Mac.
Set your mode, wordlist & output with a simple command line.
In addition to multiple hashing functions, hashgen can also encode / decode base64.

Note: Hashgen is not nearly as fast at hashing functions as mdxfind,
After further testing and optimizations, hashgen is faster at generating md5 hashes than mdxfind. See github link below for benchmarks.

Hashgen's syntax is very simple: hashgen -m mode -w wordlist -o output
In addition to improving hashgen's speed, I plan on adding more functions as time allows.

Example Usage:

./hashgen -m md5 -w wordlist.txt -o output.txt

or stdout

./hashgen -m md5 -w wordlist.txt -o stdout

Supported Functions:

Written in go 1.20.2 and can be cross compiled for linux, Windows & Mac.

Nice work :) I use my own code for stuff like this, but great for other users who are not coders. Stdin can be slow as it works in "chunks". I got round this issue when it happened depending on what was being run by creating a "chunk queue" say 3 or 4 ahead, so I could pass a new chunk instantly when hashcat asked for it, then generate another in advance. Saved hashcat waiting for my proggy to gen chunk and passing.

I like it.
Another methods.

hashcat is a tool that can create hashes quite quickly using test.pl file

Generate MD5 hashes, iteration 10

 

[Cyclone]

• Added md5 hashing benchmarks to github comparing bash, python3, php8.2, mdxfind & hashgen (go)
• Results were interesting to see that php8.2 was the fastest

v2022-12-20.1200-ntlm

• Added NTLM
• Tweaked -w flag to be less restrictive (now supports single character wordlist such as "d")
• Cleaned up code

 

[Cyclone]

v2022-12-20.1430-goroutine

• Added code optimizations which gave an average 154% performance gains over previous release
  • Added goroutines for concurrency
  • Added read / write buffers for better performance
• Tweaked several hashing function codes
• Added -o flag to write to output file

v2022-12-24.1800-optimize

• Optimized code which gave a nice performance increase to most functions
  • hashgen is now the fastest CPU based md5 hash generator I've tested
  • (These hashrates can be easily beat by improved code optimization and/or coding in faster programming language such as c/c++/rust, etc.)
• Tweaked buffer sizes to shave off a few ms
• hashgen now supports 26 functions
• hashgen can be used with algo name or hashcat mode flags: ex: "-m sha1" or "-m 100"

v2023-03-15.0900-optimize

• Added "-o stdout" option
  • ./hashgen -m md5 -w wordlist.txt -o stdout
• Tweaked sha2 mode flags: ex: -m "sha2-256", "sha2_256", "sha2256", "sha256", "1400"
• Fixed "lines/sec" to show "M lines/sec"
• Tested on linux & windows (can also be compiled for mac)

I have version 0.1.3 and it works GREAT
