Merge CeWL Output with SecLists Wordlists

CeWL extracts site-specific words. Merging them with SecLists boosts relevance.

Workflow

cewl https://target.example -w cewl.txt
cat cewl.txt SecLists/Passwords/common_creds.txt | sort -u > hybrid.txt

Use the new list with tooling:

hydra -l admin -P hybrid.txt ssh://target.example
