unable to run crackmapexec on kali 2023.2

[V3N0M3X111]

Hello team, when I try to run crackmapexec I get the following lines, I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it and I get the same thing.

Any ideas or assistance would be greatly appreciated.

got kinda the same. i havent made it work fully but if you uninstall it etc and then update and upgrade kali then install it using pipx it kinda works. i get massive error testing CME and while trying brute-force i get an massive error tho

to kinda naswer my other comment...

i maybe found a loop hole or a reason. test using another wordlist. rockyou is "UTF-8 text" but other wordlists are "ASCII text" and those will work.

but this dont fix the fact it cant read files that are "UTF-8 text", some people want/have to use the rockyou wordlist and cant do it right now

Thanks @suljov !! will give that a try.

Looks like it's a regex fail.

Temporary work around:
Replace /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/oscrypto/_openssl/_libcrypto_cffi.py with it's latest version:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wbond/oscrypto/master/oscrypto/_openssl/_libcrypto_cffi.py

Note to the random reader, your affected path is more likely to be ~/.shiv/cme_<string>/site-packages/oscrypto/_openssl/_libcrypto_cffi.py

Someone else has been tracking this issue better than me:
