Next-generation exploit suggester based on Linux_Exploit_Suggester

Key Improvements Include:

• More exploits! (Last updated: Nov 5, 2017)
• Accurate wildcard matching. This expands the scope of searchable exploits.
• Output colorization for easy viewing.
• And more to come!

When run without arguments, this program performs a 'uname -r' to grab the Linux operating system release version, and returns a list of possible exploits. Links to applicable exploit POCs are included. Keep in mind that a patched/back-ported patch may fool this script.

In addition, you can use the '-k' flag to manually enter a wildcard for the kernel/operating system release version.

This script is extremely useful for quickly finding privilege escalation vulnerabilities both in on-site and exam environments.
