ExploitDB2
ExploitDB, sometimes stylized as Exploit Database or Exploit-Database, is a public and open source vulnerability database maintained by Offensive Security.[1][2] While the database is publicly available via their website, it can also be used by utilizing the searchsploit command-line tool which is native to Kali Linux.[3]
The database also contains proof-of-concepts (POC), helping information security professionals learn new exploit variations. In Ethical Hacking and Penetration Testing Guide, Rafay Baloch said Exploit-db had over 20,000 exploits, and was available in BackTrack Linux by default.[4] In CEH v10 Certified Ethical Hacker Study Guide, Ric Messier called exploit-db a "great resource," and stated it was available within Kali Linux by default, or could be added to other Linux distributions.[5]
The current maintainers of the database, Offensive Security, are not responsible for creating the database. The database was started in 2004 by a hacker group known as milw0rm[6] and has changed hands several times.[7]
