WSL-2 GPU Hacking: Leveraging CUDA & OpenCL for Key Recovery on Windows 11



Welcome back to our channel for another detailed tech tutorial.

Today, we tackle a complex challenge: operating Hashcat and Hitag2 key recovery software on a Windows 11 system equipped with VMware Workstation Pro and WSL-2 and maintain direct access to a NVIDIA RTX3060 for parallell execution. WSL-2 supports CUDA out of the box but the software we are after uses OpenCL.

Our endgoal is to be able to have access to GPU Brute Forcing with OpenCL and CUDA for optimized performance.

This video covers:

1. The Setup Challenges: Learn about the intricacies of running VMware Workstation Pro alongside WSL-2 on Windows 11, focusing on GPU limitations and the need for 3D acceleration.

2. Simultaneous Operation: Discover a seamless method to activate WSL-2 and run VMware Workstation at the same time, eliminating the hassle of constant system modifications and reboots.

3. Activating OpenCL in WSL-2: Step through the process of enabling OpenCL within your WSL-2 environment to maximize the capabilities of Hashcat, using both OpenCL and CUDA technologies.

4. Generate test vectors to be able to verify that the Hitag2 key recovery software works.

5. Bonus how to overcome a potential bug in the Hitag2 key recovery software!

The video is designed for tech enthusiasts, security researchers, and developers, this guide aims to streamline your Windows 11 setup for advanced cracking tasks without compromising on system functionality.

For my patreons there is a textual guide available.
