hashcat: Show result of an already cracked hash.
$ hashcat --show ${hash_value}
try on your machine
The command "hashcat --show ${hash_value}" is a command used to display the plaintext representation of a given hash value using the hashcat tool.
Here's an explanation of each part of the command:
- "hashcat": It is the name of the tool that is being executed.
- "--show": It is an option or a flag which specifies that the command should display the plaintext value of the hash.
- "${hash_value}": It is a placeholder for the actual hash value that needs to be cracked. You need to replace "${hash_value}" with the specific hash value you want to reveal the plaintext for.
By executing this command with the appropriate hash value, hashcat attempts to crack the hash and display the plaintext representation of it if successful.
