A curated knowledge base of 1k+ vulnerability Proof-of-Concept (PoC) writeups covering CVEs across CMSs, servers, and network devices. It is organized as a documentation/wiki-style repository intended for security learning and research.

Use cases

• look up a poc for a cve
• learn how known vulnerabilities are exploited
• build a vulnerability knowledge base for security research
• study exploitation techniques for penetration testing certification
• find reproduction steps for a specific cms vulnerability

When to choose

• you need reference material on known CVEs and their PoCs
• you are studying offensive security or preparing for pentest work
• you want a broad, categorized vulnerability writeup collection

When to avoid

• you need an automated vulnerability scanner rather than documentation
• you require a permissively licensed codebase (no license is specified)
• you want guaranteed-legal testing targets - the repo is for educational reference only
