Prepend/Append rules phrase reverse - hvprvtr - 01-22-2025

Hello! Try to bruteforce hashes with append and prepend abc, Abc phrases.

Created next rule list:

Code:
^a^b^c

^A^b^c

$a$b$c

$A$b$c

But in the work status i see this:

Quote:Candidates.#1....: cbApassword

Why cbA? Why it reversed? I dont need this. Only right two phrases.

Running hashcat:

Quote:hashcat.exe -r rules.txt -a0 -m22000 lists\wifi.hc22000 dict.txt

Yes this is correct, prepending will naturally be backwards. Try it yourself, pick a word and incrementally prepend a, then b, then c.

aPassword
baPassword
cbaPassword

rules are read from left to right, so to prepend abc you need the following line

^c ^b ^a
