Linux Exploit Suggester 2
Next-generation exploit suggester based on Linux_Exploit_Suggester
Key Improvements Include:
- More exploits! (Last updated: March 27, 2019)
- Option to download exploit code directly from Exploit DB
- Accurate wildcard matching. This expands the scope of searchable exploits.
- Output colorization for easy viewing.
- And more to come!
This script is extremely useful for quickly finding privilege escalation vulnerabilities both in on-site and exam environments.
Usage
When run without arguments, the script performs a 'uname -r' to grab the Linux operating system release version, and returns a list of possible exploits. Links to CVEs and applicable exploit POCs are included. Keep in mind that a patched/back-ported patch may fool this script.
