Guys and Gals, I'm trying to crack a wpa password using an dictionary and some rules, but in the candidates field of the status, instead of getting the words of the dictionary combined with my rules Im having an hex output. Is it normal? Or does it mean that something is wrong with my dictionary? Thanks
It just means that your wordlist contains words which are not UTF-8 encoded or that one of the rules (for example + and - have that potential) to break UTF-8 encoding.
Thank you atom! Since i use some non english dictionaries with lots of different characters and accentuation and some wordlists i generate for myself, i was worried about some problems that might occur, but you lend me a light. Many thanks!
