Exploit Development

Build working exploits based on vulnerability analysis.

Exploit Development Process

1. Start from template - Use templates/exploit.py
2. Find offset - Use cyclic pattern
3. Identify target - Win function, ROP chain, shellcode
4. Handle mitigations - Leak addresses if needed
5. Build payload - Padding + control flow hijack
6. Test locally - With and without GDB
7. Test remote - Adjust for remote environment

Stack Consistency (CRITICAL)

Always use fixed argv[0] and empty environment:
