Wordlist Extender

Extend wordlist by appending digits and special characters to each word.

Check an already existing wordlist here and the extended wordlist here.

Please be careful not to crash your PC by using a too large wordlist or extending too far.

Feel free to tweak this tool to your liking.

Tested on Kali Linux v2023.1 (64-bit).

Made for educational purposes. I hope it will help!

How to Run

Open your preferred console from /src/ and run the commands shown below.

Run the script:

python3 wordlist_extender.py

If a strong password policy is enforced, passwords usually start with one capitalized word followed by a few digits and one special character at the end (e.g. Password123!).

What I use most of the time:

python3 wordlist_extender.py -w wordlist.txt -t capitalize -d 3 -c 1 -min 8

Runtime
