# CrackStation-password-list |
|
|
|
## Overview |
|
|
|
This dataset is based on the comprehensive [CrackStation Password Cracking Dictionary](https://crackstation.net/crackstation-wordlist-password-cracking-dictionary.htm), a widely recognized resource in password security research. |
|
|
|
### Key Features |
|
|
|
- **Comprehensive Collection**: Aggregates publicly available wordlists, password leaks, and dictionaries from various sources. |
|
- **Diverse Origins**: Includes entries from Wikipedia dumps (2010, all languages), texts from [Project Gutenberg](https://www.gutenberg.org), and lesser-known database breaches shared in underground communities. |
|
- **Optimized Format**: The data is stored as plain text, alphabetically sorted without case sensitivity, and uses newline (`\n`) as the delimiter. |
|
|
|
### Files |
|
|
|
* **crackstation.txt.gz/realuniq.lst** - CrackStation's main password cracking dictionary. Contains around ***~1.49 Billion*** words (1,493,677,782 words). |
|
* **crackstation-human-only.txt.gz/realhuman_phill.txt** - A smaller wordlist with just the "real human" passwords leaked from various website databases. Contains around ***~64 Million*** passwords. |
|
|
|
### Usage |
|
- Test hashes with this dataset via the [CrackStation hash cracker](https://crackstation.net). |
|
