Linux kernel 2.6.31 perf_counter_open exploit
Author: xipe # Views: 2767

Well, it has been a while since my last technical post � More than 1 year ?!? Wow, time runs so fast :)

So let�s go for a post about Linux kernel exploitation (yeah, I know, sounds cool). We will exploit a quite recent bug in kernel 2.6.31 (still unpatched while writing this) in the perf_counter_open syscall (CVE 2009-3234) to gain root privileges. As real hackers say, f34R.

Intel(r) switches backdoor
Author: xipe # Views: 3136

I recently got an Intel(r) Express 530T switch from eBay.

x86 calling conventions
Author: xipe # Views: 2733

This is the first article of a (I hope) long series of articles about 'The Basics: What everyone should know about' :)

The calling convention defines the way a function or a piece of code should arrange data before calling a function, and what to do after. It responds to questions like "In which order should I pass the arguments ?", "Should I clean something ?", "Where is the result ?", ...
