Introduction to SearchSploit

Included in the Exploit Database repository on GitHub is “searchsploit”, a command line search tool for Exploit-DBthat also allows you to take a copy of Exploit Database with you, everywhere you go. SearchSploit gives you the power to perform detailed off-line searches through your locally checked-out copy of the repository. This capability is particularly useful for security assessments on segregated or air-gapped networks without Internet access.

Since we are using GNOME build of Kali Linux therefore the “exploitdb” package is already included by default, all we need to do, open the terminal and just type “searchsploit” and press Enter. You will welcome by its help screen.
