About the project
A vulnerability scanner driven by YAML templates that checks applications, APIs, networks, DNS and cloud configurations for known vulnerabilities. Community-contributed templates mimic real-world exploitation steps to reduce false positives.
Useful for
- Scan your web services against the latest CVE templates
- Embed vulnerability checks into a CI/CD pipeline as regression tests
- Write a custom YAML template for a specific infrastructure vulnerability

Star growth looks organic. Data as of November 2, 2026, 21:46 UTC.
The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.
Stars per day
Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.
Why it’s trending
- Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-02 (UTC), 00:12–21:39: 32525 → 32542 stars (+17). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +19 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
Measured growth: the last 7 completed days
New stars over 7 days: 229. +1% versus the preceding 7 days.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
