SearchSploit - The offline Exploit Database Archive

What is SearchSploit?
   Included in our Exploit Database repository on GitHub is “searchsploit”, a command line search tool for Exploit-DB that 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.

   Many exploits contain links to binary files that are not included in the standard repository but can be found in our Exploit Database Binary Exploits repository instead. If you anticipate you will be without Internet access on an assessment, ensure you check out both repositories for the most complete set of data.

   This guide is for version 4 of SearchSploit.

   Note, The name of this utility is SearchSploit and as its name indicates, it will search for all exploits and shellcode. It will not include any results for Google Hacking Database, but it can include Papers if configured (correctly!).

=======
 Notes
=======
 * You can use any number of search terms.
 * Search terms are not case-sensitive (by default), and ordering is irrelevant.
   * 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.
 * 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 updating or displaying help, search terms will be ignored.
