on

Michigan, US, 16th August 2024, ZEX PR WIRE, Guided Hacking is excited to announce the launch of its new Binary Exploit Development Course, aimed at breaking down the complex concepts behind binary exploitation and bringing this craft to a larger audience. This in-depth course is designed to take learners from foundational concepts to advanced techniques in exploit development, starting with the essential topic of buffer overflows but also going over complicated tasks like bypassing security features and fuzzing for new bugs.

Linux Buffer Overflow – Exploit Development 9

(a teaser of chapter 9 of the course)

Starting with a Simple Buffer Overflow

The journey begins with an in-depth explanation of exploiting simple buffer overflows using VulnServer. This foundational chapter, available since September 3, 2022, guides students through reversing the VulnServer application using IDA Free, a popular disassembler. Participants will learn how to exploit a direct RET overwrite, a fundamental technique in binary exploitation. By the end of this chapter, you will be equipped to overwrite the return address during runtime, redirecting execution flow to their custom shellcode. This becomes the foundation of the course, with each chapter building upon this basic technique & adapting it to various increasingly difficult situations.

Course Overview

Guided Hacking’s Exploit Development Course is meticulously structured to provide a step-by-step learning experience. Each module builds upon the previous one, ensuring you don’t get lost or confused. The course includes lessons on buffer overflows, bypassing memory security features like Data Execution Prevention & deploying malicious shellcodes. Students will learn about a variety of different buffer overflow exploits including SEH-based overflows, which use the Windows Structured Exception Handler to gain reliable control over execution. The course also covers writing an exploit stager, handling large shellcodes with Winsock-based exploit stagers, and techniques for reusing existing sockets to bypass space restrictions.

Advanced Techniques and Topics

As part of the curriculum, learners will explore how to bypass DEP stack protection using Return Oriented Programming to bypass Data Execution Prevention, employing VirtualAlloc & WriteProcessMemory for DEP bypass. Advanced exploit techniques include:

  • Writing ROP decoders & leveraging pwntools for efficient exploit development

  • Overcoming Address Space Layout Randomization with partial RET overwrites

  • Transitioning from Windows to Linux exploitation by setting up a Linux VM and using gdb for debugging

Specialized Modules

The course also introduces students to egg hunter shellcode, while the term “egg hunter” might sound funny, this little trick to locate shellcode in memory will help you handle inaccessible memory regions to ensure reliable exploitation. Participants will learn to exploit use-after-free vulnerabilities to control the instruction pointer by understanding heap memory management and leveraging freed memory for arbitrary code execution.

Scientology in Europe: Spreading Festive Cheer with a Purpose

Published

November 28, 2024

By

Brussels, Brussels, Belgium, 28th Nov 2024 – As the festive season approaches nearer and nearer in Europe, the Church of Scientology is planning activities to enrich the festivities with meaning and significance. They are engaging in activities such as advocating for rights and preventing drug abuse aiding children in need and fostering a culture of behavior during this time of generosity to positively impact their communities.

Inspired by holiday events at their Los Angeles headquarters and Saint Hill in the UK—formerly the home of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard—members across Europe are engaging with local communities to address pressing social issues while spreading festive joy.

Helping Valencia Recover from Devastation

This year in Valencia, Spain, the Church is exemplifying its dedication to serving the community. Volunteer Ministers swiftly responded to the aftermath of floods working around the clock to clean up the mud from residences, roads and public spaces, provide resources and provide emotional solace to families with the purpose of rebuilding their livelihood. 

In an effort to uplift those most impacted by the events the Volunteer Ministers arranged a toy collection drive, for children who suffered losses in the flooding incidents. Volunteers from across Spain are generously donating toys and funds to bringing some joy and comfort to families enduring the difficult circumstances. This initiative reflects a desire to assist children in finding moments of joy and normalcy amidst the holiday season.

Festive Giving Across Europe

In cities like Madrid, Paris, Brussels, Berlin, Copenhagen, and Milan among others, Scientologists are embracing the holiday spirit by hosting events that blend celebration with community service. These gatherings often feature talks on human rights, drug awareness, and ethical principles, alongside fun activities for children. By bringing people together in a festive atmosphere, they inspire there a meaningful action on important social issues.

The Church’s programs also align with its global initiatives, including The Way to Happiness, Youth for Human Rights, and Drug-Free World. These campaigns encourage kindness, integrity, and responsibility—values that resonate strongly during the holiday season.

A Focus on Ethical Living

A significant part of the Church’s holiday outreach is the promotion of The Way to Happiness, a non-religious moral guide written by L. Ron Hubbard. Its 21 principles for ethical living, such as “Love and Help Children” and “Be Competent,” are shared at events to encourage acts of compassion and positive change. Volunteers often distribute copies at gatherings, inviting people to incorporate these principles into their daily lives and New Year’s goals.

Supporting Children and Families in Need

The Church of Scientology places a special emphasis on helping children during the holiday season. In many European cities, parishioners organize toy drives and gift distributions in partnership with local charities, providing also essentials like clothing, school supplies, and holiday meals for families who are struggling.

The Church’s holiday activities in Europe echo the festive celebrations at its Los Angeles headquarters, where families gather for an annual holiday lighting festival. With attractions like ice skating, face painting, and visits from Santa Claus, the event is dedicated to fostering joy and community spirit.

Scientologists aim to do more than just light up city streets—they strive to brighten lives. By combining festive celebrations with meaningful outreach, church parishioners have through decades encouraged acts of kindness and a shared commitment to building a better future for everyone.

For Scientologists, the holiday season is about more than festivities. It’s an opportunity to give back, support those in need, and leave a positive impact on the world.

Solar Price Surge Coming? How China’s Tax Rebate Cut Affects You Directly

Published

2 hours ago

on

November 28, 2024

By

On November 15th, the Chinese government reduced the export tax rebate for photovoltaic modules from the previous 13% to 9%.  What are the short-term effects of this change on the photovoltaic market?

 

1. Delivery Impact: Pressure on Supply Chains

 

November 19th – November 28th: 

With the tax rebate cut, many orders originally scheduled for overseas shipment in December are now rushing to be delivered.  There will be significant pressure on the delivery of popular models.

 

November 29th – December 15th: 

Domestic orders delayed from late November will gradually start to ship, but there will still be intense pressure.  Large orders will likely need to be split for delivery.

 

December 15th – December 31st: 

Delivery pressure may ease somewhat, but the situation will still be tight.

 

Conclusion: 

Short-term pressure on deliveries will be immense, mid-term deliveries will be sporadic, and there will be gradual fulfillment towards the end of the year.

 

Recommendations:

1. If you must ship, avoid popular models.

2. If you need popular models, delay the production schedule.

3. If shipment is necessary, split the order and source from multiple reliable suppliers instead of relying on a single one.

 

2. Pricing Trends: Short-term Price Increases Likely

 

November 19th – December 31st: 

Steady with slight increases Delivery pressure is high, and manufacturers are not worried about selling out, so there’s a possibility of price hikes.

 

· Key products: 

  Expect price fluctuations in popular high-efficiency PV modules as well as high-demand modules such as bifacial solar panels.

· Recommendation: 

  If you are planning to buy in the short term, it may be wise to lock in prices now to avoid price hikes.

 

January 1st – January 31st: 

Stable Due to the Chinese New Year holiday on January 29th, actual production time is limited to about half a month.  Therefore, factory delivery pressure will be lighter, and prices are unlikely to fluctuate significantly.

 

February 1st – March 31st: 

Increase overseas, stable domestically

Overseas: A slight price increase is inevitable due to the reduced tax rebate.

Domestic: Prices will remain largely unchanged.

 

3. Moregosolar Conclution:

* Mainstream models will remain stable with minor short-term increases, maintaining stability in the long term.

* Non-mainstream models may see slight price increases with delivery pressure.

* European warehouse stock will sell well in the short term, remain stable in the mid-term, and experience slight price increases in the long term.
