## What is Searchsploit?
Searchsploit is a command-line tool that is used to search for exploits and vulnerabilities in the Exploit Database. It is included in the Metasploit Framework and can be used to search for specific vulnerabilities or to generate a list of exploits for a given system or application.
Searchsploit is designed to simplify the process of finding and using exploits and is a valuable tool for penetration testers, security researchers, and other security professionals.
## Common Uses and Commands
Searchsploit is primarily used for searching the Exploit Database for known vulnerabilities and exploits. Some common use cases include finding vulnerabilities in specific applications or systems and identifying potential attack vectors for penetration testing.
To use Searchsploit, users must first download and install the software on their system. Once installed, they can run it from the command line and specify the search term or other parameters. Some common command line options for Searchsploit include:
Searchsploit
```Terminal
- searchsploit SOFTWARE ---> Search Normal
- searchsploit "SOFTWARE" ---> Search String
- searchsploit -x PAYLOAD ---> Show and Examine Exploit
- searchsploit -m EXPLOIT ---> Download Exploit
- searchsploit --nmap FILE.XML ---> Find possible exploit from your Nmap scan
```
<u><b>Make sure to also search exploit on metasploit directly with the "search" command</b></u>
