# ExploitDBSighting

A client that retrieves vulnerability observations from
[Exploit-DB](https://www.exploit-db.com/) and pushes them to a
[Vulnerability-Lookup](https://github.com/cve-search/vulnerability-lookup) instance.

Exploit-DB.com is a comprehensive and publicly accessible database of security
vulnerabilities and exploits, maintained by Offensive Security. It serves as a
crucial resource for penetration testers, researchers, and ethical hackers by
offering detailed information and proof-of-concept code.

Within the Vulnerability-Lookup project, data from Exploit-DB are leveraged as sightings,
specifically categorized as "exploited" in alignment with the MISP taxonomy of sightings.

More information about the sightings:

- [Corresponding MISP taxonomy](https://github.com/MISP/misp-taxonomies/blob/fd2fbaf2a450e42a490551e5a8e2fa6df039a6b8/vulnerability/machinetag.json#L26-L63)
- [Vulnerability-Lookup documentation](https://vulnerability-lookup.readthedocs.io/en/latest/sightings.html#sightings)

## Installation

[pipx](https://github.com/pypa/pipx) is an easy way to install and run Python applications in isolated environments.
It's easy to [install](https://github.com/pypa/pipx?tab=readme-ov-file#on-linux).

```bash
$ pipx install ExploitDBSighting
$ export ExploitDBSighting_CONFIG=~/conf.py
```

The configuration should be defined in a Python file (e.g., ``~/.conf.py``).
You must then set an environment variable (``ExploitDBSighting_CONFIG``) with the full path to this file.

## Usage
