Pompem

Overview

Pompem is a Python-based tool that automates the search for known exploits and vulnerabilities across multiple databases including ExploitDB, PacketStorm, and WPScan. It provides security researchers and penetration testers with an efficient way to identify publicly available exploits, vulnerability information, and proof-of-concepts for discovered software and applications without manually querying multiple sources.

Core Concepts

Vulnerability Databases

Pompem integrates with:

  • ExploitDB: Largest exploit database with 50,000+ exploits
  • PacketStorm: Vulnerability and security resource repository
  • WPScan: WordPress vulnerability database
  • SecurityFocus: Bugtraq vulnerability information
  • Metasploit Database: Exploitation framework modules

Search Methods

  • Application name search
  • CVE identifier lookup
  • Version-specific vulnerability matching
  • Software component identification

Data Aggregation

Pompem combines results from multiple sources to provide comprehensive vulnerability information.

Basic Commands

Search by Application Name

pompem -s "Apache"
pompem -s "nginx"
pompem -s "WordPress"

Search by CVE

pompem -s "CVE-2024-1234"
pompem -c CVE-2024-00000

Search with Version Information

Vulnerability Assessment Workflow

Step 1: Identify Target Software

# Determine application versions running on target
# Example: Apache 2.4.41, PHP 7.4.10, WordPress 5.9

Step 2: Search Each Component

pompem -s "Apache 2.4.41" -a
pompem -s "PHP 7.4.10" -a
pompem -s "WordPress 5.9" -a

Step 3: Collect Results

pompem -s "Apache 2.4.41" -a > apache_vulns.txt
pompem -s "PHP 7.4.10" -a > php_vulns.txt
pompem -s "WordPress 5.9" -a > wordpress_vulns.txt

Step 4: Analyze and Prioritize

cat *_vulns.txt | sort | uniq > all_vulnerabilities.txt
grep -i "remote\|critical" all_vulnerabilities.txt > critical_vulns.txt

Step 5: Document Findings

# Create assessment report with findings

Reconnaissance Integration

Web Application Fingerprinting

# After identifying web technologies
pompem -s "Nginx 1.18" -a
pompem -s "PHP 8.0" -a
pompem -s "WordPress 5.8" -a

Service Discovery Follow-up

# Search identified services
pompem -s "OpenSSH 7.4" -a
pompem -s "Postfix 2.11" -a
pompem -s "Bind 9.11" -a

Plugin/Module Enumeration

# Search discovered plugins
pompem -s "WordPress WooCommerce" -w
pompem -s "Drupal Views" -e

Batch Processing

Search Multiple Applications

#!/bin/bash
APPS=("Apache 2.4" "PHP 7.4" "WordPress 5.9" "MySQL 8.0")

for app in "${APPS[@]}"; do
    echo "=== Searching for $app ===" >> vulnerabilities.txt
    pompem -s "$app" -a >> vulnerabilities.txt
    echo "" >> vulnerabilities.txt
done

Process CVE List

#!/bin/bash
while IFS= read -r cve; do
    pompem -c "$cve" -a >> cve_details.txt
done < cve_list.txt

Search from Nmap Output

# After nmap service detection
pompem -s "Apache httpd 2.4.41"
pompem -s "OpenSSH 7.6p1"

Exploit Identification

Find Available Exploits

pompem -s "application" -e | grep -i "exploit\|poc"

Identify POCs

pompem -s "Apache Struts 2" -e
# Will show available Proof-of-Concepts

# Use cached results for reporting
cat apache_cache.txt

Troubleshooting

Database Connection Issues

# Check internet connectivity
ping www.google.com

# Verify API endpoints are accessible
curl -I "https://www.exploit-db.com"

Timeout Errors

# Increase timeout for large result sets
timeout 60 pompem -s "popular_application"

Filter Large Result Sets

# Narrow searches to reduce results
pompem -s "Apache 2.4.41" -e  # Specific version
pompem -c "CVE-2024-12345"     # Specific CVE

Update Database

# Ensure latest vulnerability data
pip3 install --upgrade pompem
