+--------------------------------------+

ExploitExpress is a concept I came up with in 1997, the idea was to create a simple engine for exploiting cgi scripts. When I first came up with the concept, I knew I'd want to use simple scripts written in a very simple semi-language. It wasn't untill recently that I actually gave the idea much thought. Once I did start giving it much thought, I simply decided to write the damn thing.

ExploitExpress is simply put a CGI exploitation engine. You write a simple script to exploit a CGI, it does the rest. In future versions there will be a package manager, so that there'll be a uniform way to distribute exploit packages. Soon we also hope to setup an archive of all ExploitExpress scripts at http://www.wilter.com/wf/ somewhere.


+--------------------------------------+
| Usage:                               |
+--------------------------------------+

To run ExploitExpress you must have Perl5 installed on the system. If you're running windows, I suggest ActivePerl from http://www.activestate.com/. On UNIX or anything else, find a CPAN archive.

To run on UNIX:
either do "chmod u+x exxpress.pl" and "./exxpress.pl [script]" OR do what windows users do.

To run on Windows/DOS:
simply type "perl exxpress.pl [script]"

The [script] need not be included in the command line, if it's not, you will simply be prompted for it.

+--------------------------------------+

If you want to develop scripts for ExploitExpress, develop ExploitExpress itself, or get comments to developers (of both scripts and ExploitExpress), check out the NetScript website at http://www.wilter.com/netscript/. ExploitExpress is the starting point for The NetScript Project, and that's where you'll find info on how to contribute to the project.

For a good overview of the ExploitExpress scripting 'language', see Guidelines.txt

None known at this time.

If you find any bugs with ExploitExpress, go ahead and send mail to the list, it'll get to the developers.

+--------------------------------------+

There's some people that I just can't go without mentioning that made this program possible. First, I have to thank my wife for not getting too upset over all the time I spend on the computer; Ken Williams, for being a cool guy to have known over the last few years; Hale, for being a great friend and fellow perl nerd; Freshman, for bullshitting with me; everybody else in Wiltered Fire; gargan, for bein' a good friend and beta-tester; Matt Wright for writing shitty CGI scripts, your shoddy work inspired this. Everybody else I forgot, sorry, maybe I'll remember you next time.
