As you can see, many smaller device manufacturers are targeted with exploits. The
different exploit modules listed have vulnerabilities associated with them. As an
example, the Comtrend module in the list has a
vulnerability announcement
associ‐
ated with it. If you want more details about the vulnerabilities to get an idea of what
you may be able to accomplish by running the exploit, you can look up the exploit
listed and find the security announcement providing details, including remediations,
for the vulnerability.
Exploit Database
When vulnerabilities are discovered, a proof of concept may be developed that will
exploit it. Whereas the vulnerability is often announced in multiple places, such as
the Bugtraq mailing list, the proof-of-concept code is generally stored at the
Exploit
Database website
. The site itself is a great resource, with a lot of code you can learn
from if you want to better understand how exploits work. Because it’s a great
resource, the code from the website is available in Kali Linux. All of the exploit source
code is available in
/usr/share/exploitdb
.

directories in
