About

sercat is a command-line serial terminal in the spirit of netcat: everything is set on

the command line, and the terminal sends what you type and prints what's received. It

supports configurable display of nonprintable bytes (raw, dots, escaped, or full hex),

sending files with optional escape parsing and pacing, and clean piping to and from

stdin/stdout.

Security

No known CVEs for sercat.

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
