The Windows Exploit Development 2 training by Blackstorm Security is confirmed for June 7, 2025, spanning 40 hours. This advanced course builds on Windows Exploit Development 1, focusing on WinDbg, kernel exploitation, and advanced vulnerability techniques.
Course Highlights:
✔ WinDbg-Centric Approach – Learn exploit development using Microsoft’s recommended debugger.
✔ Heap Spraying & Use-After-Free Exploits – Detailed exploitation of memory corruption flaws.
✔ Windows Kernel Driver Exploitation – Hands-on kernel shellcode development.
✔ Windows 7 Memory Management Deep Dive – Understand critical internals for exploit reliability.
✔ Practical Kernel Exploits – Develop working exploits for real-world vulnerabilities.

Essential WinDbg Commands for Exploit Development
Attach to a process windbg -pn process_name.exe Load symbols .symfix .reload Basic memory inspection !address !vprot < address> Heap analysis !heap -h !heap -p -a < address> Kernel debugging !process 0 0 !drvobj <driver_object>
Heap Spraying Techniques
Heap spraying is used to allocate memory blocks containing shellcode:
Python spray example spray = "\x90" 1024 + shellcode for _ in range(1000): alloc(0x1000, spray)
Use-After-Free (UAF) Exploitation Steps
- Trigger UAF: Free an object while retaining a dangling pointer.
- Reallocate Memory: Replace freed object with controlled data.
3. Redirect Execution: Hijack virtual function tables (vtables).
// UAF Pseudo-Code object->vtable = attacker_controlled_addr; object->method(); // Calls malicious code
Kernel Exploit Mitigations & Bypasses
- SMEP (Supervisor Mode Execution Prevention): Bypass with ROP or `PTE` manipulation.
- KASLR (Kernel ASLR): Leak kernel pointers via
NtQuerySystemInformation.

What Undercode Say
This course is a must for red teamers & vulnerability researchers. Mastering kernel exploitation is critical for advanced offensive security. Expect deep dives into WinDbg, UAF, and kernel shellcoding—essential skills for modern exploit development.
Expected Output:
Successful exploit execution [] Triggering UAF... [] Reallocating memory... [] Executing shellcode at 0xDEADBEEF [+] SYSTEM shell acquired!
Prediction
With Windows 10/11 hardening, kernel exploits will shift towards logical bugs & race conditions, making this training even more valuable. Expect more advanced bypasses for kCFG, HVCI, and CET in future exploits.
