Hacking. The Art of Exploitation

Every programmer is essentially a hacker. Originally, hacking referred to the search for clever and non-obvious solutions. Understanding the principles of programming helps find vulnerabilities, and skills in discovering vulnerabilities aid in creating programs, which is why many hackers engage... in both simultaneously. There are interesting unconventional moves in both techniques for writing elegant programs and in techniques for finding weak points. Where to start? To overwrite memory through buffer overflow, gain access to a remote server, and intercept connections, you will need to program in C and assembly, use shellcode and processor registers, become familiar with network interactions and encryption, and much more. No matter how much we want to believe in miracles, the software and computer networks on which our daily lives depend have vulnerabilities. "A world without hackers is a world without curiosity and innovative solutions". John Erickson
