4 hours to 4 minutes
Stop spending your night setting up vulnerable environments just to test a CVE. OctoLab spins up isolated testing environments in minutes, not hours.
Built for pentesters. Fully isolated. Ready when you are.

The problem
"Have you tested this exploit?"
Before OctoLab
- Spending 4+ hours hunting down vulnerable versions, dependencies, and configs
- Fighting with Docker, VMs, and network configs just to get something running
- Risking your host machine with untrusted exploits and malware
With OctoLab
- Request a CVE and get a ready-to-exploit environment in under 5 minutes
- Every session runs in its own isolated environment — your host stays safe, exploits stay contained
- Download proof artifacts (pcaps, logs) and generate detection rules (Sigma, Suricata) from your session
How it works
Three steps from "I want to test this" to "exploit confirmed"
Request a CVE
Pick a CVE from our catalog. We cover Linux and open-source vulnerabilities — the stack most production systems run on.
Get your environment
We spin up an isolated environment with your vulnerable target and an OctoBox attack machine. Everything is contained and destroyed after your session.
Test and prove
Access OctoBox through your browser terminal. Run your exploits, capture the proof, and generate detection rules (Sigma, Suricata) you can deploy straight to your SIEM or IDS.
Security note: Every session runs in its own isolated environment with locked-down egress. Your exploits cannot escape, and other users cannot see your traffic.
Need a specific CVE? Subscribers can request any CVE — we'll build the lab environment.
