Hey y'all.
At this stage in the course, the content is going to start getting harder (Starting with ROP this last week, and HEAP this week). I highly recommend you come and watch the lectures live. Ask questions live. ROP is a combination of all previous weeks content, plus some new techniques. We are over the halfway mark for this course, so it is expected you will have the skills to perform research and practice challenges and techniques on your own.
The tutorials will not have time to go over lecture content if you did not attend the lectures this week. I have asked the tutors not to cover lecture content for students who have not watched the lecture content before attending the tutorial as is disadvantages other students.
Also we will be having a guest lecture in Week 10 (Nov 17). Someone who works at <redacted> will be talking about awesome new techniques related to <redacted>. Due to the sensitive nature of their work, this won't be recorded. This will be an awesome sneak-peak into the world of vulnerability research, I highly recommend making plans to come and watch Week 10 in person, especially if you'd like the opportunity to talk to and ask questions.
Hey everyone, we'll be hosting more help sessions on Friday at 2pm for the next 3 weeks.
They will be running in:
As with the previous ones, they'll run as long as you all have questions. There's no pre-prepared topics/content, this will purely be an open-air question-answer forum , so make sure you come with questions.
This session won't be recorded or live-streamed.
Hey everyone,
Hopefully you've all read through https://rootkit.6447.lol/ and started on your assignment.
Reminder:
