Universal DEP/ASLR bypass with msvcr71.dll and mona.py

Over the last few weeks, there has been some commotion about a universal DEP/ASLR bypass routine using ROP gadgets from msvcr71.dll (written by Immunity Inc) and the fact that it might have been copied into an exploit submitted to Metasploit as part of the Metasploit bounty.

Mona 1.0 released !

FINALLY ! After spending almost 6 months of designing, developing and testing, and after 'surviving' 2 presentations (at AthCon and Hack In Paris), I am extremely excited and proud to present, on behalf of the entire Corelan Team, the general availability of mona.py. With this announcement, we also declare pvefindaddr officially dead from this point forward.

Malicious pdf analysis : from price.zip to flashplayer.exe

This morning, my generic attachment filter for MS Exchange reported that about 100 emails were put in quarantine because they contained a small zip file. When looking inside the zip file, I found a small pdf file… I immediately figured this file was up to no good, so it was time to get my hands dirty :) Read more
