Options
=========
-c, --case [term] Perform a case-sensitive search (Default is inSEnsITiVe)
-e, --exact [term] Perform an EXACT & order match on exploit title (Default is an AND match on each term) [Implies "-t"]
e.g. "WordPress 4.1" would not be detect "WordPress Core 4.1")
-s, --strict Perform a strict search, so input values must exist, disabling fuzzy search for version range
e.g. "1.1" would not be detected in "1.0 < 1.3")
-t, --title [term] Search JUST the exploit title (Default is title AND the file´s path)
--exclude="term" Remove values from results. By using "|" to separate, you can chain multiple values
e.g. --exclude="term1|term2|term3"
--cve [CVE] Search for Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) value
-j, --json [term] Show result in JSON format
-o, --overflow [term] Exploit titles are allowed to overflow their columns
-p, --path [EDB-ID] Show the full path to an exploit (and also copies the path to the clipboard if possible)
-v, --verbose Display more information in output
-w, --www [term] Show URLs to Exploit-DB.com rather than the local path
--id Display the EDB-ID value rather than local path
--disable-colour Disable colour highlighting in search results
-m, --mirror [EDB-ID] Mirror (aka copies) an exploit to the current working directory
-x, --examine [EDB-ID] Examine (aka opens) the exploit using $PAGER
-h, --help Show this help screen
-u, --update Check for and install any exploitdb package updates (brew, deb & git)
--nmap [file.xml] Checks all results in Nmap´s XML output with service version
e.g.: nmap [host] -sV -oX file.xml
=======
Notes
=======
* You can use any number of search terms
* By default, search terms are not case-sensitive, ordering is irrelevant, and will search between version ranges
* 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
* And/Or ´-s´ if you wish to look for an exact version 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 using ´--nmap´, adding ´-v´ (verbose), it will search for even more combinations
* When updating or displaying help, search terms will be ignored
