The Exploit Database Git Repository

This is an official repository of The Exploit Database, a project sponsored by Offensive Security. Our repositories are:

• Exploits & Shellcodes: https://github.com/offensive-security/exploitdb
• Binary Exploits: https://github.com/offensive-security/exploitdb-bin-sploits
• Papers: https://github.com/offensive-security/exploitdb-papers

The Exploit Database is an archive of public exploits and corresponding vulnerable software, developed for use by penetration testers and vulnerability researchers. Its aim is to serve as the most comprehensive collection of exploits, shellcode and papers gathered through direct submissions, mailing lists, and other public sources, and present them in a freely-available and easy-to-navigate database. The Exploit Database is a repository for exploits and Proof-of-Concepts rather than advisories, making it a valuable resource for those who need actionable data right away. You can learn more about the project here (Top Right -> About Exploit-DB) and here (History).

This repository is updated daily with the most recently added submissions. Any additional resources can be found in our binary exploits repository.

Exploits are located in the

SearchSploit

Included with this repository is the SearchSploit utility, which will allow you to search through exploits, shellcodes and papers (if installed) using one or more terms. For more information, please see the SearchSploit manual.

Usage/Example

[email protected]:~$ searchsploit -h
  Usage: searchsploit [options] term1 [term2] ... [termN]

 Options
=========
Search Terms
   -c, --case     [Term]      Perform a case-sensitive search (Default is inSEnsITiVe)
   -e, --exact    [Term]      Perform an EXACT & order match on exploit title (Default is an AND match on each term) [Implies "-t"]
                                e.g. "WordPress 4.1" would not be detect "WordPress Core 4.1")
   -s, --strict               Perform a strict search, so input values must exist, disabling fuzzy search for version range
                                e.g. "1.1" would not be detected in "1.0 < 1.3")
   -t, --title    [Term]      Search JUST the exploit title (Default is title AND the file's path)
       --exclude="term"       Remove values from results. By using "|" to separate, you can chain multiple values
                                e.g. --exclude="term1|term2|term3"
Output
   -j, --json     [Term]      Show result in JSON format
   -o, --overflow [Term]      Exploit titles are allowed to overflow their columns
   -p, --path     [EDB-ID]    Show the full path to an exploit (and also copies the path to the clipboard if possible)
   -v, --verbose              Display more information in output
   -w, --www      [Term]      Show URLs to Exploit-DB.com rather than the local path
       --id                   Display the EDB-ID value rather than local path
       --colour               Disable colour highlighting in search results
Non-Searching
   -m, --mirror   [EDB-ID]    Mirror (aka copies) an exploit to the current working directory
   -x, --examine  [EDB-ID]    Examine (aka opens) the exploit using $PAGER
Non-Searching
   -h, --help                 Show this help screen
   -u, --update               Check for and install any exploitdb package updates (brew, deb & git)
Automation
   --nmap     [file.xml]  Checks all results in Nmap's XML output with service version
                            e.g.: nmap [host] -sV -oX file.xml
=======
 Notes
=======

You can use any number of search terms
By default, search terms are not case-sensitive, ordering is irrelevant, and will search between version ranges

Use '-c' if you wish to reduce results by case-sensitive searching
And/Or '-e' if you wish to filter results by using an exact match
And/Or '-s' if you wish to look for an exact version match


Use '-t' to exclude the file's path to filter the search results

Remove false positives (especially when searching using numbers - i.e. versions)


When using '--nmap', adding '-v' (verbose), it will search for even more combinations
When updating or displaying help, search terms will be ignored
