Platforms: Linux · Last verified September 6, 2026
Hashrat is a hash-generation utility that supports the md5, sha1, sha256, sha512, whirlpool, jh-244, jh256, jh-384 and jh-512 hash functions, and also the HMAC versions of those functions. It can output in ’traditional’ format (same as md5sum and shasum and the like), or it’s own format.
Only use this tool against systems you own or are explicitly authorized to test — see the disclaimer.
