Editing Binary Exploitation Workshop (section)

== Please read ==

Option 1:
    - Virtual machine software (VMWare, VirtualBox etc...)
    - Ubuntu 16.04 guest system(with binutils, gdb, python2.7, and the pwntools python module)
    - your C editor of choice
Option 2:
    This is the prefered method.
    - Install VirtualBox
    - Install [https://www.vagrantup.com/ Vagrant] (wrapper for VirtualBox)
    - download this [https://gist.github.com/A2nkF/67a3b3f0d43077f28fa1601735e5301b Vagrantfile]
    - run vagrant up && vagrant ssh
    That will automatically create the ubuntuVM, install all the packages we need and setup a nice debugging environment.
    Another plus is that you will have exactly the same setup as me so debugging any problems is going to be easier.
    NOTE: The installation can take up to an hour.


This Workshop is for beginners. Beginner as in new to binary exploitation not as in new to low level stuff, c and assembly.

We'll try to briefly cover the usage of:
* the pwntools python module
* radare2 dissassembler (mostly for static analysis)
* gdb (for dynamic analysis)
* automated ROP-gadget finders

The focus will be:
* to learn about vulnerable C functions
* to learn how simple exploits used to be
* to learn what the GOT is
* to learn what mitigations have been introduced in modern systems
* to learn how to use ROP (return oriented programming) to bypass many exploit mitigations

I will bring some binaries that we can attempt exploit. 
The goal is for every participant to be able to write a stackpivot->malloc->memcpy->mprotect ropchain to execute shellcode.
