When running a hybrid attack with a static wordlist and a mask suffix I see a weird behavior in candidate generation.
My dictionary:
Password
Pass
Test
My masks:
?d?d?d
?d?d?d?d
?d?d?d?d?d
When I review the status of my run, I can see hashcat generating candidates such as 123, without the prefix dictionary words. Is this a bug? Is there a way to make sure only the combination of the dictionary + mask will run against the hash?
I was suspecting that I may have an empty line somewhere in my dictionary but couldn't find any.
