Hashcat Maskprocessor Intruder Payloads

Summary: PortSwigger's BApp Store lists a Burp Intruder extension, version 1.0 by author Quahac, that integrates Hashcat Maskprocessor, a word generator with a per-position configurable charset. The listing gives usage examples such as Password?d generating Password0, Password1 and Password3, and Password?1 -1 0A@ generating Password0, PasswordA and Password@, and notes the extension was last updated on 16 October 2020.

Bottom line: The extension is third-party code that PortSwigger explicitly makes no warranty about for quality or usefulness, and it has sat unupdated since October 2020 - so anyone running it in Burp is trusting a five-year-old payload generator inside their testing toolchain.
