Oh come on... Go dl PaiMei, go through the enormous headache of putting it all together and find a sploit Wink I guarantee you once you get into it, it becomes a little addictive.

Why can't we set people to ignore on these forums? I'm busy enough as it is; I don't need people filling my head with this kind of nonsense Cheesy

Seriously though, we'll see how it goes. I'm just getting my feet wet with assembly at the moment (ridiculous how little I actually knew about memory and processors), so that's a ways off. I'm not ruling anything out, but I need to prioritize Wink

Reversing for sploits
Intense knowledge of debugging and programming needed to understand problematic areas through injection, tainted variables, etc. unknown - you're fishing for issues

Reversing for malware
Decent knowledge of the use of sploits available needed to inject and taint variables established applications and variables KNOWN - malware authors send targeted payload

That's the key difference I was referring do. I don't have the patience fuzz applications or do anything like that. There's obviously a lot of overlap in the requisite skills, but I'd rather try to find out how something works than aimlessly search for something that might not even be there (OK, I know there will likely always be something if you look hard enough Wink).

I was really interested in focusing on RE until I read this thread.  For some reason, I'm not disappointed because I feel like I learned so much from reading sil's posts.  I think I'll take some time to find and read the other 200 of them in the near future.

Aren't you more interested in reverse engineering malware though? I think there's a significant difference in that and trying to find vulnerabilities and write exploits.

Nah, I've got it. I know he's busy, and I don't have anything important to say, so I don't want to bother him. Thanks though.

Ah, so they simply don't have access anymore. Thanks.

I just started following you on twitter, don't disappoint me! Wink

Do you have a blog? Why not offer up some instruction? How about writing a tool?

I think you're focusing too much on exploit development in terms of making a name for yourself.
817  Ethical Hacking Discussions and Related Certifications / Other / Re: Solaris 8 - from bin to root on: September 05, 2010, 08:59:46 AM
I'm not that familiar with Solaris, but if someone has write access to the password file, why can't they just edit that?

Keatron is 100% the reason I'm in infosec. That dude needs to return an email, so I can buy him a beer!

I'm definitely going to have to follow that site if that's where he's active now.

You better hurry up with that OSCP H1T M0nk3y; your course-load is piling up!

Congrats guys!

In case there is copyrighted material which has been copied from his site to the other, then he's able to claim copyright for that if he's the rightful owner.

That might actually work since the .net address is indeed hosted within the US (Scranton, PA - is it at Dunder Mifflin?) I'd start by contacting their ISP.

Sounds like a good idea. The client I was on-site with this week grilled me with mobile device questions.

I'm just kidding. Those are already on my wish-list at Amazon.

I do shop the bargain sites, such as what you listed, half.com, Amazon's used selection. I often spend more on shipping ($3.99) than the book itself. That's why I have more books than what I know what to do with. Those are up next. I'm hitting up assembly and then moving on to Hacking: The Art of Exploitation and The Shellcoder's Handbook. I need to de-noob myself Wink

How are you changing the values? Something like the User Agent Switcher add-on for Firefox?

When you do that, what shows up in the database? Maybe the developer is sanitizing input and has coded things properly.

Ah, recordmydesktop was the one I couldn't think of. Good call!

Sil, quit it. I already have more books than I know what to do with Wink
