Users Adobe Passwords Were Stupid

Top 100 Adobe Passwords with Count

We do not (yet) have the keys Adobe used to encrypt the passwords of 130,324,429 users affected by 
their most recent breach. However, thanks to Adobe choosing symmetric key encryption over hashing, 
selecting ECB mode, and using the same key for every password, combined with a large number of 
known plaintexts and the generosity of users who flat-out gave us their password in their password 
hint, this is not preventing us from presenting you with this list of the top 100 passwords 
selected by Adobe users.

While we are fairly confident in the accuracy of this list, we have no way to actually verify it 
right now. We don't have the keys, and Adobe is not letting any of the affected accounts log in 
until the owners reset their passwords. So, it is possible there is an error or two in here. Caveat 
emptor and such.
