What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the enumeration of privilege escalation vectors on Linux and macOS systems, helping security professionals quickly identify potential attack paths.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Comprehensive Enumeration: Scans for SUID binaries, writable paths, weak service configurations, cron jobs, sudo rules, and kernel CVE indicators.
  • Low-Privilege Execution: Designed to be run by a non-root user, making it safe for post-exploitation scenarios.
  • Use Case: After gaining initial access to a Linux server, run LinPEAS to discover how to escalate privileges to root.

Quick Start

Download and run the linpeas script directly on the target Linux or macOS system.
