I was given a file [hashes.txt](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mar232320/ctf-writeups/main/hashes.txt) which contains some hashes

I used online hash identifier and checked various types in hashcat and it turns out that first 4 hashes are `descrypt` 5 next are `md5crypt` and the last 4 are `sha512crypt`

I used hashcat to crack these hashes with rockyou.txt dictionary and simple bruteforce First 4 were cracked pretty quickly and the results are (in order) drink all the booze
Next 5 (md5crypt) were also easy to crack and the results were hack all the things dedicated The sha512crypt hashes are more complicated therefore the estimated time for rockyou in hashcat was ~2h so that's too much time I thought that in the last section of hashes would also be "all" and "the" solutions in 11th and 12th hash Then I realised that it may be some kind of text like Hacker Manifesto so I searched it in google and I found the [lyrics](https://genius.com/Dual-core-all-the-things-lyrics) of a song which intro says `dedicated to all the hackers` `dedicated` was the last part of 2nd section so these should be the solutions of part 3 what confirmed my earlier thoughts All I had to do from now was to build the flag
