The Shellcoder's Handbook: Discovering and Exploiting Security Holes
The provided Book is a compilation of excerpts from "The Shellcoder’s Handbook, Second Edition," a book focusing on software exploitation. It details various methods of exploiting software vulnerabilities, primarily buffer overflows and format string bugs, across different operating systems (Linux, Solaris, OS X, Windows) and architectures. The book explains the underlying mechanisms of these exploits, including shellcode techniques and heap manipulation. It also covers advanced topics like bypassing security protections (non-executable stack, ASLR, DEP), fault injection, and exploiting vulnerabilities in specific software like Cisco IOS and various databases. Finally, the text provides guidance on establishing a working environment for exploit development and discovering vulnerabilities through different methods (fuzzing, source code auditing, binary analysis).
