Go-Hash-Matcher

A simple password cracker written in Go, designed to search for a specific hashed password in a wordlist.

Features

• Utilizes goroutines for concurrent password checking to improve performance.
• Supports SHA1 hashing with customizable salt.
• Provides flexibility for using different hashing algorithms.

Usage

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/IamLucif3r/Go-Hash-Matcher.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd Go-Hash-Matcher

3. Build the project:

   go build main.go

4. Run the executable:

   ./main

   Replace main with the name of the compiled executable if it's different.

5. The program will read passwords from the passwords.txt file and check for a specific hashed password.

Configuration

• Adjust the hashType variable to use a different hashing algorithm (e.g., SHA256).
• Modify the salt variable to change the salt used during hashing.

Dependencies

The project uses only standard Go libraries and does not require additional dependencies.
