A curated collection of 92+ Nuclei templates focusing exclusively on zero-day and actively exploited vulnerabilities in the wild. Templates use passive detection techniques (version/date matching) and are organized by year for easy navigation.
⚠️ Note: Date matching may be less reliable than version detection. Use with caution.
