Hybrid

Hashcat modes 6 and 7 are hybrid's based on wordlists, masks and the combinator. You specify both a wordlist and mask on the command line, and the mask is appended or prepended to the words within the list. For example, your dictionary contains the word Password, then -a 6 [...] list.txt ?d?d?d?d will produce Password0000 to Password9999.

hashcat.exe -a 6 -m 1000 ntlm.txt list.txt ?d?d?d?d

Where:

  • -a 6 specifies the hybrid wordlist + mask mode.

  • ?d?d?d?d is the mask.

The hybrid mask + wordlist mode (-a 7) is practically identical, where the mask comes first.

hashcat.exe -a 7 -m 1000 ntlm.txt ?d?d?d?d list.txt
