Download WPA-PSK Word List 150 MB Previously I have posted some tutorials on Wi-Fi hacking. Some of them needs a word list to find out/creak the network password.
Today you'll be able to download a collection of passwords and wordlist dictionaries for cracking in Kali Linux.
A wordlist or a password dictionary is a collection of passwords stored in plain text. It's basically a text file with a bunch of passwords in it.
Most of the wordlists you can download online including the ones I share with you here are a collection of uncommon and common passwords that were once used (and probably still is) by real people.
You can create your own wordlist or use existing ones that's been compiled by others. Usually wordlists are derived from data breaches like when a company gets hacked. The data stolen is then sold on the dark web or leaked on certain websites such as Pastebin.
You can download the full collection of wordlists on Github. Note, I sorted and separated them in alphabetical order in order to meet Github's upload size requirements.
For more information on how to download and decompress the files, please continue reading.

Where did you get the passwords from?
I dug them up using advanced Google search operators. The majority I found from websites that share leaked passwords.
How do I use this?
A wordlist is used to perform dictionary attacks. For example, you can use it to crack WiFi WPA2 using aircrack-ng:
I've personally tried it and was able to crack 3/10 wifi networks near me. Just bare in mind that using password cracking tools takes a lot of time, especially if done on a computer without a powerful GPU.
Also, this might be obvious to most, but I had a few people email me telling me none of the wordlists worked for them...so I'm about to say it
THIS ONLY WORKS IF THE PASSWORD IS INCLUDED IN THE WORDLIST.
If they use a strong password like this one:
[email protected]|[email protected]!8ZBF3gH*N2$0E$$_
[email protected]|[email protected]!8ZBF3gH*N2$0E$$_
Then you're pretty much out of luck. You could do a brute force attack in such cases but even that could take millions of years depending on your computer.

How to download wordlists
![Wpa Password List Txt Download Google Wpa Password List Txt Download Google](/uploads/1/2/5/5/125515011/679575832.png)
1. Download using git clone
2. Choose a wordlist you want to use
3. Decompress (if applicable)
4. Merge all text files into one
Clean up wordlists using bash one-liners
The following bash one-liners are useful commands for manipulating wordlists (or any text file).
For instance, if you need to remove all blank lines from a file, a one-liner will do the trick. Similarly, if you need to remove duplicate passwords (or text), you can do that too.
If you have multiple wordlists, you can also combine them into one large file.
Remove duplicates
Sort wordlist by length
Sort by alphabetical order
Merge multiple text files into one
Remove all blank lines
