## [GEF](https://github.com/hugsy/gef)
```bash
checksec #Check protections
p system #Find system function address
search-pattern "/bin/sh" #Search in the process memory
vmmap #Get memory mappings
#Shellcode
shellcode search x86 #Search shellcodes
shellcode get 61 #Download shellcode number 61
#Patterns
pattern create 200 #Generate length 200 pattern
pattern search "avaaawaa" #Search for the offset of that substring
pattern search $rsp #Search the offset given the content of $rsp
#Another way to get the offset of to the RIP
1- Put a bp after the function that overwrites the RIP and send a ppatern to ovwerwrite it
2- ef➤ i f
Stack level 0, frame at 0x7fffffffddd0:
rip = 0x400cd3; saved rip = 0x6261617762616176
called by frame at 0x7fffffffddd8
Arglist at 0x7fffffffdcf8, args:
Locals at 0x7fffffffdcf8, Previous frame's sp is 0x7fffffffddd0
Saved registers:
rbp at 0x7fffffffddc0, rip at 0x7fffffffddc8
gef➤ pattern search 0x6261617762616176
[+] Searching for '0x6261617762616176'
[+] Found at offset 184 (little-endian search) likely

## Tricks
### GDB same addresses
While debugging GDB will have **slightly different addresses than the used by the binary when executed.** You can make GDB have the same addresses by doing:
* `unset env LINES`
* `unset env COLUMNS`
* `set env _=` _Put the absolute path to the binary_
* Exploit the binary using the same absolute route
* `PWD` and `OLDPWD` must be the same when using GDB and when exploiting the binary
### Backtrace to find functions called
When you have a **statically linked binary** all the functions will belong to the binary (and no to external libraries). In this case it will be difficult to **identify the flow that the binary follows to for example ask for user input**.\
You can easily identify this flow by **running** the binary with **gdb** until you are asked for input. Then, stop it with **CTRL+C** and use the **`bt`** (**backtrace**) command to see the functions called:
```
gef➤ bt
#0 0x00000000004498ae in ?? ()
#1 0x0000000000400b90 in ?? ()
#2 0x0000000000400c1d in ?? ()
#3 0x00000000004011a9 in ?? ()
#4 0x0000000000400a5a in ?? ()
```
## GDB server
`gdbserver --multi 0.0.0.0:23947` (in IDA you have to fill the absolute path of the executable in the Linux machine and in the Windows machine)
# Ghidra
## Find stack offset
**Ghidra** is very useful to find the the **offset** for a **buffer overflow thanks to the information about the position of the local variables.**\
For example, in the example below, a buffer flow in `local_bc` indicates that you need an offset of `0xbc`. Moreover, if `local_10` is a canary cookie it indicates that to overwrite it from `local_bc` there is an offset of `0xac`.\
_Remember that the first 0x08 from where the RIP is saved belongs to the RBP._

# GCC
**gcc -fno-stack-protector -D\_FORTIFY\_SOURCE=0 -z norelro -z execstack 1.2.c -o 1.2** --> Compile without protections\
**-o** --> Output\
**-g** --> Save code (GDB will be able to see it)\
**echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize\_va\_space** --> To deactivate the ASLR in linux
**To compile a shellcode:**\
**nasm -f elf assembly.asm** --> return a ".o"\
**ld assembly.o -o shellcodeout** --> Executable
# Objdump
**-d** --> **Disassemble executable** sections (see opcodes of a compiled shellcode, find ROP Gadgets, find function address...)\
**-Mintel** --> **Intel** syntax\
**-t** --> **Symbols** table\
**-D** --> **Disassemble all** (address of static variable)\
**-s -j .dtors** --> dtors section\
**-s -j .got** --> got section\
\-D -s -j .plt --> **plt** section **decompiled**\
**-TR** --> **Relocations**\
**ojdump -t --dynamic-relo ./exec | grep puts** --> Address of "puts" to modify in GOT\
**objdump -D ./exec | grep "VAR\_NAME"** --> Address or a static variable (those are stored in DATA section).
# Core dumps
1. Run `ulimit -c unlimited` before starting my program
2. Run `sudo sysctl -w kernel.core_pattern=/tmp/core-%e.%p.%h.%t`
3. sudo gdb --core=\ --quiet
# More
**ldd executable | grep libc.so.6** --> Address (if ASLR, then this change every time)\
**for i in \`seq 0 20\`; do ldd \ | grep libc; done** --> Loop to see if the address changes a lot\
**readelf -s /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 | grep system** --> Offset of "system"\
**strings -a -t x /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 | grep /bin/sh** --> Offset of "/bin/sh"
**strace executable** --> Functions called by the executable\
**rabin2 -i ejecutable -->** Address of all the functions
# **Inmunity debugger**
```bash
!mona modules #Get protections, look for all false except last one (Dll of SO)
!mona find -s "\xff\xe4" -m name_unsecure.dll #Search for opcodes insie dll space (JMP ESP)
```
# IDA
## Debugging in remote linux
Inside the IDA folder you can find binaries that can be used to debug a binary inside a linux. To do so move the binary _linux\_server_ or _linux\_server64_ inside the linux server and run it nside the folder that contains the binary:
```
./linux_server64 -Ppass
```
Then, configure the debugger: Debugger (linux remote) --> Proccess options...:
