This document describes the various commands, functionality and behaviour of mona.py. Released on june 16, this pycommand for Immunity Debugger replaces pvefindaddr, solving performance issues and offering numerous new features. pvefindaddr will still be available for download until all of its functionality has been ported over to mona.

Today we will have a look at a CTF binary from HITB pre qualifications CTF 2011. This is an interesting binary to reverse because Vectored Exception Handling (VEH) was used in the challenge... Read more

Because some interesting anti-debugging tricks were implemented into the binary... Read more
