Exploit-Challenges
Here are a collection of vulnerable ARM binaries designed for beginner vulnerability researchers & exploit developers to play around with and test their skills!
These binaries are all built as ARMv7 Mach-O executables (unless specified otherwise) so it is recommended that you use a 32bit jailbroken iOS device with radare2
or another debugging utility installed to test them.
ARM 32-bit
roplevel1
- simple introduction to Return Oriented Programming with a simple objective
roplevel2
- same idea as level 1 but with a new objective
roplevel3
- more advanced use of ROP
roplevel4
- dealing with ASLR (infoleak)
roplevel5
- same as lvl4 but requires exploitation of format string vuln for the info leak
roplevel6
- execute ROP chain by making use of a stack pivot
roplevel7
- off-by-one vulnerability
heaplevel1
- simple heap based overflow example
heaplevel2
- Use-After-Free exploit
heaplevel3
- double free()
Xylex
- real-world(ish) example system
ARM 64-bit
roplevel1-64
- 64-bit version of roplevel1
roplevel6-64
- 64-bit version of roplevel6
Help & Guidance
Write-ups/explanations on some of the binaries can be found on my YouTube channel here or in my book Beginner's Guide to Exploitation on ARM.
