A "wordlist" for SilverBullet is essentially a collection of credentials, typically formatted as username:password or email:password (often called a "combo list").

What actually goes into a SilverBullet Wordlist? While every list should be customized, the most effective versions share these five core categories:

8. Practical Recommendations

  • For testers: Start with a ranked base list of 10k–100k high-probability tokens plus a compact rule set; iterate using test results.
  • For defenders: Maintain and enforce a dynamic banned-password list derived from recent leak analyses and common transformation rules.
  • For both: Focus on targeted tokens relevant to the user population (language, names, local patterns) to improve realism or defense coverage.

Data Types: You can use different "pieces" of data depending on the task, such as: CC (Credit Card): number|month|year|cvv. Proxies: ip:port:user:pass.

When SilverBullet runs a configuration (a script designed for a specific website), it pulls one line from the wordlist at a time and attempts to log in to the target site using those credentials. How Wordlists are Used in SilverBullet

Templates: You can use the Template Language to generate text automatically. For instance, you can create a "wordlist" of tasks using the #each directive to loop through data and turn it into text.
