[Linux Exploit Suggester] Grab the Linux Operating Systems release version, and return a suggestive list of possible exploits

Linux Exploit Suggester; based on operating system release number.

This program run without arguments will perform a 'uname -r' to grab the Linux Operating Systems release version, and return a suggestive list of possible exploits. Nothing fancy, so a patched/back-ported patch may fool this script.

Additionally possible to provide '-k' flag to manually enter the Kernel Version/Operating System Release Version.

This script has been extremely useful on site and in exams. Now Open-sourced under GPLv2.
