I've lost my master password. Not all is lost as I know the original word that generated the password: It was generated by a random case switching for consonants and random vocal to numbers. For instance: a and A become 4.

I'm searching online for list generators that takes the seed word and generates permutations as I've described. I yet have to find a solution.

Does someone know a generator that matches my requirement, or do I have no other option than to make my own word list?

I recently created a tool called PassGen that will do what you are talking about. It basically takes a target words and generates a password list using common substitutions.

A basic example:

python passgen.py -f forgot

will generate 1024 passwords as shown below:

forgot
forgoT
forgo+
forgo7

FQR9QT
FQR9Q+
FQR9Q7

Hope this can help.

One of the answers on this question suggests a tool that may be useful. I haven't tested it, but perhaps Crunch wordlist generator is able to do what you want.

  • There's a problem with this program. It replaces characters based on a mask. And the mask tells the nature of the replacement. But I would have to put two wilcards for one same letter. Ex: e may turn to E or 3. But the program only provides a way for testing with all lower case letters. or uppers or any number. But not a combination. What I need are possible l33t combinations for a word. – Sergio Jun 02 '14 at 12:12
  • @Sergio That's unfortunate. I only found this by searching, I have no idea if there are any programs that better suit your needs. – user2428118 Jun 02 '14 at 12:27
