Hashcat 0.41 Combination mode not loading more than one dictionary?
#1
Trying to crack two-word passwords with hashcat seems to have an issue in 0.41 (oclhashcat-plus worked fine, by the way) - it's only loading one dictionary and then combining that dictionary with itself.

I was under the impression I could combine two or more different dictionaries, i.e. a large and a small dictionary (phpbb plus a larger dictionary, for example), or a small dictionary three times, for example.

Code:
hashcat-cli64.exe --hash-mode 131 --attack-mode 1 OneHashOnly.hash X:\dir\English.txt "X:\dir\English (2).txt"
[code]

Intel Core i7
167326 word wordlist

Note that the status screen lists the first dictionary's wordcount, but the timing of 27.29M plains/s  and the time taken do correctly match that count squared, and it does correctly match the actual two word password I'm testing.

[code]
Initializing hashcat v0.41 by atom with 8 threads and 32mb segment-size...

Added hashes from file OneHashOnly.hash: 1 (1 salts)
Activating quick-digest mode for single-hash with salt

NOTE: press enter for status-screen
