K8tools is a large, curated GitHub repository collecting dozens (hundreds) of security- and exploitation-oriented utilities, proof-of-concepts, and payloads aimed at penetration testing, privilege escalation, and vulnerability exploitation. The project bundles exploits for many well-known CVEs, remote get-shell scripts, local privilege-escalation helpers, credential-harvesting utilities, scanning and brute-force tools, and a variety of platform-specific binaries and archives organized into folders for quick browsing. The README and repository metadata present it as an “all-in-one” toolkit for offensive security tasks, with many archived executables, exploit payloads, and helper scripts (including PowerShell and Python examples) that target services such as WebLogic, Tomcat, Zimbra, Struts2, Zabbix and others. The repo is actively starred and forked by the community, shows a long commit history, and includes many archived artifacts.
Features
- Large curated collection of exploits, POCs, payloads, and offensive security utilities
- Wide coverage of CVEs and targets (WebLogic, Struts2, Tomcat, Zimbra, Zabbix, etc.)
- Mix of file types: archived binaries (RAR/7z/EXE), scripts (PowerShell, Python), and tooling demos
- Organized archive-style structure for quick browsing of specific exploit categories
- Active community interest (thousands of stars and forks) and long commit history
- Distributed under an MIT license but clearly dual-use and intended for security research only
