A collection of Nmap NSE scripts that enrich service scans with CVEs, CVSS scores and known exploits from the Vulners database. It fingerprints software from scan results and HTTP banners, matches detected CPEs against Vulners, and prints ranked vulnerability results directly in the nmap report.

Use cases

  • find cves for services detected by nmap
  • check open ports for known exploits
  • vulnerability scan during pentest
  • identify software versions from http banners and match to cves
  • rank scan findings by exploitability
  • audit network hosts for vulnerable software

When to choose

  • you already use nmap and want CVE context in the same scan
  • you want exploit-aware ranking rather than raw CVSS scores
  • you need a lightweight script-based tool with no separate scanner install

When to avoid

  • you need authenticated or agent-based host scanning rather than network service detection
  • you want a standalone vulnerability scanner with its own scanning engine
  • you cannot send scan data to the external vulners.com service
