linux-exploit-suggester
Linux privilege escalation auditing tool.
LES tool is designed to assist in detecting security deficiencies for a given Linux kernel/Linux-based machine. It provides following functionality:
- Assessing kernel exposure on publicly known exploits
Tool assesses (using heuristics methods) exposure of the given kernel to publicly known Linux kernel exploits.
- Verifying state of kernel hardening security measures
LES can check for most of security settings available by your Linux kernel. It verifies not only the kernel compile-time configurations (CONFIGs) but also verifies run-time settings (sysctl) giving more complete picture of security posture for running kernel.
