Sniper –
Automatic Exploiter
Sniper: Auto-Exploiter is the automated vulnerability exploitation tool that safely proves which critical CVEs are truly exploitable. It exploits the vulnerability in minutes to gain command execution, read sensitive files, or trigger other impact, extracts proof of compromise, and maps your target's network, so you can validate real risk and prioritize what to fix first.
Prove which vulnerabilities are actually exploitable
An automatic exploitation tool runs real exploits against your targets to confirm whether a vulnerability is genuinely exploitable, not just present on paper. Sniper: Auto-Exploiter does this end to end: it fingerprints the target, runs the matching exploit, extracts proof, and cleans up, without ever handing you a raw shell to manage.
Confirm real risk with proof of compromise
When Sniper: Auto-Exploiter exploits a vulnerability, it confirms the risk is real and exploitable right now. Use it to validate findings, cut false positives, and make remediation urgent with evidence your team and stakeholders can act on.
Exploit and extract proof, safely
Sniper: Auto-Exploiter automatically exploits the vulnerability, whether that means command execution, file read, or another capability, then runs post-exploitation modules on its own. Unlike raw frameworks, it never leaves an open shell. Every step is predefined, listed in the results, and cleaned up, so the target stays in a clean state.
Extract artefacts as evidence
After a successful exploit, Sniper: Auto-Exploiter extracts artefacts from the target: current user, system information, local users, running processes, network configuration, and interesting files from the filesystem. This gives you solid proof of compromise and a head start on manual reconnaissance, lateral movement, and pivoting.
See the target's network at a glance
Sniper: Auto-Exploiter automatically builds a network graph of the exploited host: interfaces, connections, protocols, exploit paths, and adjacent hosts. Navigate complex infrastructure without correlating data by hand, and show decision-makers exactly how far an attacker could reach.
Sample a Sniper: Auto-Exploiter report
Every Sniper: Auto-Exploiter scan produces a full results walkthrough: console output, an exploitation summary, extracted artefacts and files, and the network graph. Everything is exportable in a high-value report.

Built for teams that need proof, not guesses
Internal security teams
Validate the vulnerabilities your scanners flag before you escalate them. Confirm which exposures are truly exploitable, prioritize patching by real impact, and give leadership proof instead of a raw CVE list. Blue teams can also use the network graph to spot unknown connections and possible backdoors.
IT teams
Stop chasing a raw CVE list. Sniper: Auto-Exploiter shows you which flagged vulnerabilities are truly exploitable, so you can justify emergency patching, size remediation windows by real impact, and give the business proof of what an attacker could actually reach, all without touching production.
MSSPs
Deliver consistent, repeatable exploitation across many client environments. Chain Sniper: Auto-Exploiter with the Network Scanner, keep engagements organized in dedicated workspaces, and hand clients branded reports that prove impact and justify remediation.
How Sniper: Auto-Exploiter works
Sniper: Auto-Exploiter runs a safe, automatic sequence of predefined steps. Here's the remote attack flow.
Fingerprint the target
Sniper: Auto-Exploiter scans the ports you specify, then fingerprints the services and web technologies behind them. It also covers protocols beyond HTTP/S, including SMTP, Redis, AJP, and SMB, so it can match the right exploit across your stack.
Match and validate exploits
Based on the fingerprint, Sniper: Auto-Exploiter filters its exploit library for compatible modules, then runs a safe check routine for each one to see whether the target is exploitable, without extracting any data yet.
Exploit and extract proof
If the target is exploitable, Sniper: Auto-Exploiter runs the exploit, gaining command execution, reading files, or triggering the relevant capability, and automatically extracts artefacts as proof of compromise. Every action is listed in the results for full transparency.
Clean up automatically
Most modules leave no files or processes behind. When they do, Sniper: Auto-Exploiter deletes them, so the target is left unaltered and clean after the scan.

Watch a full run: Sniper: Auto-Exploiter fingerprints the target, exploits a critical CVE, extracts proof of compromise, and maps the network, all in a few minutes. See exactly what lands in your results before you point it at your own targets.
Sniper helped me in two major ways. First, it automatically increases the severity of major vulnerabilities found during vulnerability assessments by showing the possibility of exploitation. Second, you can showcase evidence of the complete attack chain to the end consumers of your work, basically demonstrating how to achieve remote code execution from zero knowledge up to compromise.

Sniper: Auto-exploiter FAQs
What is Sniper: Auto-Exploiter?
Sniper: Auto-Exploiter is an automated vulnerability exploitation tool that safely proves whether a vulnerability is genuinely exploitable. It fingerprints the target, runs the matching exploit to gain command execution, read files, or trigger another capability, and extracts proof of compromise, then cleans up. Sniper: Auto-Exploiter is available with any paid plan.
What's the difference between Sniper: Auto-Exploiter and the Metasploit framework?
Unlike Metasploit, Sniper: Auto-Exploiter doesn't give you an interactive shell session on the target. Each Metasploit module is configured manually, whereas Sniper: Auto-Exploiter usually needs only a target IP or hostname, then runs full automatic exploitation with every step listed in the results. This safer, more repeatable approach removes human error during the attack phase and leaves the target in a clean state.
Is Sniper: Auto-Exploiter safe to run against production systems?
Yes. Sniper: Auto-Exploiter first sends a limited number of requests to check whether the target is exploitable, then runs a controlled exploitation phase using predefined commands that our security engineers test specifically so they won't crash the host. It never hands you a live shell, and most modules create no files or processes on the target. When they do, Sniper: Auto-Exploiter deletes them, so the system is left unaltered.
Does Sniper: Auto-Exploiter produce findings in my Pentest-Tools.com dashboard?
As an exploitation tool, Sniper: Auto-Exploiter doesn't generate findings on its own. Its exploitation modules sit on top of the Network Vulnerability Scanner, which does produce findings. So you get Sniper's detection capabilities with every network vulnerability scan, plus Sniper's full results (console, artefacts, network graph) when you run it as a standalone tool.
How does Sniper: Auto-Exploiter work with the Network Vulnerability Scanner?
Detect a vulnerability with the Network Scanner, then use the "Exploit with Sniper" button to validate it. The Network Scanner's detection for these critical CVEs comes from Sniper's exploitation modules, so detection and validation stay in sync, and you can prioritize remediation with evidence.
What proof does Sniper: Auto-Exploiter extract after a successful exploit?
Sniper: Auto-Exploiter extracts artefacts including the current user, current directory, system information, local users (with password hashes if privileged), running processes, network configuration, network neighbors, and network connections.
Which vulnerabilities and CVEs can Sniper: Auto-Exploiter exploit?
Sniper: Auto-Exploiter targets critical, widespread CVEs in high-profile software, including React2Shell, Log4Shell, ProxyShell, ProxyLogon, and Ghostcat, plus many unnamed critical CVEs. Many are in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog. Our research team adds new exploits as they emerge. See the full Vulnerabilities & Exploits DB.
What is the Sniper: Auto-Exploiter network graph?
It's an automatically generated visual summary of the exploited host's network: interfaces, inbound and outbound connections, communication protocols, the exploit paths Sniper: Auto-Exploiter used, and adjacent hosts. It removes manual correlation and shows real blast radius to technical and non-technical audiences alike.
Will Sniper: Auto-Exploiter leave files or changes on my target?
Almost never. Most exploit modules create nothing on the target. When a module does, Sniper: Auto-Exploiter removes it automatically so the system is left clean.
Do I need authorization to use Sniper?
Yes. You must have explicit written permission from the system owner before running any exploitation. Sniper: Auto-Exploiter is for authorized testing only, on systems you own or have contractual authority to test. Unauthorized testing may violate laws such as the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) and equivalents in other jurisdictions.
Do I need a paid plan to use Sniper?
Yes. Sniper: Auto-Exploiter is a premium tool available with any paid plan. You can create a free account to explore the platform, but Sniper: Auto-Exploiter itself runs on paid plans.
Where do I see Sniper: Auto-Exploiter results, and can I export them?
Every scan appears in your Pentest-Tools.com dashboard with console output, an exploitation summary, artefacts, and the network graph. You can export the results as a PDF report.
