Hi Team,


Please help me out in identifying the tool which will capture  vulnerabilities in a freeware/Shareware/ Open source 
applications

That tool would be your brain. You can get some help thou from an
arsenal of software including:
* Debuggers (I like gdb for *nix and Immunity Debugger for Windows)
* Disassemblers (everybody like IDA Pro)
* Static analyzers (FlawFinder, Splint, Fortify, Coverity, ...)
* Fuzzers (Sulley, Peach, Spike, Ruxxer, Radamsa, ...)

Probably others too.
Good luck.
