You Should Know:
Essential Commands & Tools for Reverse Engineering & Exploitation
1. Linux Binary Analysis:
Disassemble a binary with objdump objdump -d binary_file Check binary protections checksec --file=/path/to/binary Debug with GDB gdb -q ./target <blockquote> break main run
2. Windows Exploitation (WinDbg):
Load a crash dump windbg -y "Symbols Path" -z crash.dmp Find kernel module addresses lm Analyze heap chunks !heap -p -a < address>
3. Memory Corruption (Python Exploit Template):
from pwn import
p = process("./vulnerable_binary")
payload = b"A" 100 + p64(0xdeadbeef)
p.sendline(payload)
p.interactive()
4. Kernel Debugging (QEMU + GDB):
qemu-system-x86_64 -kernel bzImage -initrd rootfs.cpio -append "nokaslr" -s -S gdb vmlinux <blockquote> target remote :1234
5. Hypervisor Research (Intel VT-x):
Check CPU virtualization support grep -E "svm|vmx" /proc/cpuinfo Load KVM module modprobe kvm_intel
What Undercode Say:
Alexandre Borges’ work is a goldmine for exploit developers and security researchers. The ERS and MAS series cover everything from beginner reverse engineering to advanced hypervisor exploitation. Practicing with tools like GDB, WinDbg, and QEMU is essential for mastering these concepts.
For hands-on learning:
- Experiment with buffer overflows using
pwntools. - Debug kernel modules with
kgdb. - Study real-world CVEs and replicate exploits in a controlled environment.
Expected Output:
A structured guide to binary exploitation, reverse engineering, and kernel hacking with actionable commands and references to Borges’ research.
