How CrackStation Works
CrackStation uses massive pre-computed lookup tables to crack password hashes.These tables store a mapping between the hash of a password, and the correctpassword for that hash. The hash values are indexed so that it is possible toquickly search the database for a given hash. If the hash is present in thedatabase, the password can be recovered in a fraction of a second. This onlyworks for 'unsalted' hashes. For information on password hashing systems thatare not vulnerable to pre-computed lookup tables, see our hashing security page.
Crackstation's lookup tables were created by extracting every word from theWikipedia databases and adding with every password list we could find. We alsoapplied intelligent word mangling (brute force hybrid) to our wordlists to makethem much more effective. For MD5 and SHA1 hashes, we have a 190GB,15-billion-entry lookup table, and for other hashes, we have a 19GB1.5-billion-entry lookup table.
You can download CrackStation's dictionaries here, andthe lookup table implementation (PHP and C) is available here.
I’m wondering where I can find good collections of dictionaries which can be used for dictionary attacks?
I've found some through Google, but I’m interested in hearing about where you get your dictionaries from.

Password List
An important one that hasn't been added to the list is the crackstation wordlist
The list contains every wordlist, dictionary, and password database leak that I could find on the internet (and I spent a LOT of time looking). It also contains every word in the Wikipedia databases (pages-articles, retrieved 2010, all languages) as well as lots of books from Project Gutenberg. It also includes the passwords from some low-profile database breaches that were being sold in the underground years ago.
Best thing is, its free, although you can (and should!) make a donation!

Some additional ones to add to those already suggested
- ftp://ftp.ox.ac.uk/pub/wordlists/ - Lists by language, may be an important point depending on the locations of the users..
- http://www.openwall.com/passwords/wordlists/ - The openwall project lists.
- While not strictly a dictionary site (although it does have some) http://sites.google.com/site/reusablesec/Home/presentations-and-papers has some good presentations on improving the performance of password crackers in general and john the ripper in particular

I tested the likelihood of collisions of different hashing functions. To help test, I tried hashing
- all 216,553 words in the English language. Start with those 17.7 bits.
- then the list of all 2,165,530 English words with one digit after it. (21.0 bits)
- then the list of all
21,655,300
English words with two digits after it. (24.4 bits) - then the list of all
524,058,260
English words with a possible capital as the first letter, and followed by zero, one, or two digits. (29.0 bits).
With one list of English words you'll cover nearly everyone's password.

[Analysis] Dictionaries & Wordlists
In general, it's said that using a GOOD 'dictionary' or 'wordlist' (as far as I know, they're the same!) is 'key'. But what makes them GOOD? Most people will say 'the bigger, the better'; however, this isn't always the case.. (for the record this isn't my opinion on the matter - more on this later).

You'll find lots of words in lots of languages on the download page for the English Wiktionary. enwiktionary-latest-all-titles-in-ns0.gz contains just page titles, including phrases - it might have underscores instead of spaces though. (we have English definitions of words from many languages).
And of course there's also WordNet.
(sorry but as a newbie I can only include one link)

All the posts so far have great information, but remember you can always generate word lists yourself with a utility like crunch.
If you have an idea of what the password parameters are (for example, has to be 8-10 chars with only letters and numbers, no symbols), you can pipe crunch to most bruteforce programs with the tailored parameters.

This is one that I have found useful over the years:
It includes popular passwords, fuzzing based on attack type and popular user names.

Have you considered instrumenting OpenSSH to log password attempts. Its common to log thousands of attempts every day for an internet connected host. That will give you a list of several thousand common passwords that have some track record of success AND hint at users other than root which are common targets (e.g. nagios, db admins etc). Once you have a list then you can then use cewl to generate many more variations of these basic passwords.
I'd also recommend looking up lists of male/female names: a huge number of passwords are based on name. Again, once you have a basic list using cewl on it will generate many variations.

Check out the Password Trend Analysis - and learn!
I visualized the trends of passwords that appeared 10 times or more in the Version 1 files.The charts contain immediately actionable advice on how to make your passwords more unique.
Methodology: Why and How
The Why
Password wordlists are not hard to find. It seems like every few weeks we hear about a massive, record-breaking data breach that has scattered millions of credentials across the internet for everyone to see. If our data is leaked, we'll change our passwords, the hard-working security teams will address the vulnerabilities and everyone will wait until they hear about the next breach.
While leaks may be published with malicious intent, I see an opportunity here for the us to make ourselves a bit more secure online.
Passwords, by definition, are meant to be secret. If it weren't for these leaks, we might not have any idea what a password looks like. Sure, we might know the password to a friend's home Wifi network, or for a company expense account, but passwords are usually only intended to be known by the user and an authentication system.
But, consider this:
If you are never supposed to tell me yours, and I am never going to tell you mine..
How do we know that we aren't using the same passwords?
If you are never supposed to tell me yours, and I am never going to tell you mine..
How do we know that we aren't using the same passwords?
How do we know we aren't using the same passwords as millions of other people?
If crooks are the only ones who understand what common passwords look like, then the rest of us may never change our passwords! Without this knowledge, we may just continue believing that our password is one of a kind. Data shows that frequently, passwords certainly are not one of a kind.
This is confirmed year after year when
password
is found to be among the top 3 password for the umpteenth time in a row. Until we know what common passwords look like, we will come up with passwords that appear on dozens of leaks.If any of your passwords has been published on the internet for everyone to see, then can you really claim it as your password?
The How
While studying password wordlists, I noticed most were either sorted alphabetically or not sorted at all. This might be okay computerized analysis, but I wanted to learn something about the way people think.
I determined that for the most practical analysis, lists had to be sorted in a manner that reflected actual human behavior, not an arbitrary alphabet system or random chronology.
For the better part of a year, I went to sites like SecLists, Weakpass, and Hashes.org to download nearly every single Wordlist containing real passwords I could find. After attempting to remove non-pertinent information, this harvest yielded 1600 files spanning more than 350GB worth of leaked passwords.
For each file, I removed internal duplicates and ensured that they all used the same style of newline character. Some of these lists were composed of smaller lists, and some lists were exact copies, but I took care that the source material was as 'pure' as possible. Then, all files were combined into a single amalgamation that represented all of the source files.
Each time a password was found in this file represented a time it was found in the source materials. I considered the number of times a password was found across all of the files to be an approximation of its overall popularity. If an entry was found in less than 5 files, it isn't commonly used. But, if an entry could be found more than 350 files, it is incredibly popular. The passwords that were found in the highest number of source files are considered to be the most popular and are placed at top of the list. Files that didn't appear frequently were placed at the bottom.
The giant source file represented nearly 13 billion passwords! However, since this project aims to find the most popular passwords, and not just list as many passwords as I could find, a password needed to be found at least 5 times in analysis to be included on these lists.
The end result is a list of approximately 2 Billion real passwords, sorted in order of their popularity, not by the alphabet.

Some technically useful lists, such as common usernames, tlds, directories, etc. are included.
Files useful for password recovery and analysis. Includes HashCat Rules and Character Masks.
These files were generated using the PACK project.
