Windows Buffer Overflow Exploitation
In this lab, you’ll practice identifying and exploiting x86 stack-based buffer overflow vulnerabilities. When you’re finished, you’ll have an understanding of how the vulnerability class can be exploited. To follow along with the author on Pluralsight to solve this practical lab, you can watch the Windows Buffer Overflow Exploitation course.

Challenge
Fuzzing the Vulnerable Binary
To start, you will interface with the vulnerable application and fuzz the vulnerable parameter. You will identify the bytes required to exploit the application and understand how to handle and trace the exceptions in a debugger.
-
Challenge
Controlling Execution Flow
In this challenge, you will build upon the identified exploit condition to control the instruction pointer, identify bad bytes, enumerate a jump point, generate and execute shellcode to obtain remote code execution.

Challenge
The Last Challenge
In this challenge, you will be able to reproduce the same type of attack against a different binary.
Real skill practice before real-world application
Hands-on Labs are real environments created by industry experts to help you learn. These environments help you gain knowledge and experience, practice without compromising your system, test without risk, destroy without fear, and let you learn from your mistakes. Hands-on Labs: practice your skills before delivering in the real world.
Learn by doing
Engage hands-on with the tools and technologies you’re learning. You pick the skill, we provide the credentials and environment.
Follow your guide
All labs have detailed instructions and objectives, guiding you through the learning process and ensuring you understand every step.
Turn time into mastery
On average, you retain 75% more of your learning if you take time to practice. Hands-on labs set you up for success to make those skills stick.
