How to create a password dictionary?

Question

linux

How to create a password dictionary? For example, for brute force. In what language should it be written or can it be created through a ready-made program or generator.

Answer 1

Why create? Type in the "most common passwords" into the search engine and you will find a ready-made list.
And programmatically generating it is nonsense. You will never guess all the algorithms that the user's head works when he comes up with a password. Trying to algorithmize all this is something from the field of strong AI.

Answer 2

Tons of options. You take a bunch of books in txt, set a 20-line python script on them, it forms a dictionary from the texts. You can write a script that will generate words according to the given rules.

Answer 4

In general, you can use the utility in Kali Linux OS (specially designed for security checks). Well, if you really wanted to write a "bicycle", then simply set a dictionary (letters and numbers from which the word should consist) and, in fact, an infinite loop for generating random words. Random word generated, add to dictionary. It turned out a new word, check if it is in the dictionary. If there is - generate a new one, otherwise add to the dictionary
