Category: Pwn Description: This challenge is inspired by TSJ CTF 2022's "virus" challenge. I thought a virus could be even tinier, but I there's a catch: are viruses alive or dead? What separates living organisms from lifeless objects? Can viruses infect other viruses? Note: This challenge has not been solved by the author. Have fun! $ socat file:$(tty),raw,echo=0 tcp:virophage.chal.uiuc.tf:1337 Handout: Same as Zapping a Setuid 1 author: YiFei Zhu Files: No files. Tags: systems, extreme

because it disables aslr (edited)
03:12
the stack will be fixed
03:12
it's rwx
03:12
and execve the virus file also pass in environ as well as argv
03:13
so you can pass in a null-free shellcode with nop sled
