exploitation

When to use

Pick this skill when the task is finding usable code sequences for control-flow hijacking, not understanding normal program logic:

• return-, call-, or jump-terminated gadget search (rop_gadgets)
• reading a specific gadget's instruction sequence (rop_gadget_instructions)
• filtering by radare2's own gadget-class vocabulary (pivot, syscall, www / write-what-where, …)

For ordinary disassembly/decompilation of a function, use disassembly or decompiler instead — this skill is specifically about short, out-of-context instruction sequences ending in a control-flow transfer.
