The ALLES! CTF (ctftime.org) took place from 04/09/2020, 16:00 UTC to 06/09/2020, 19:00 UTC with a variety of interesting, creative challenges.
Within this article I want to share my writeup on the two challenges Actual ASLR 1 and 2, which were authored by LiveOverflow. What I especially liked about the challenge(s) is that you could make progression step by step even getting a first flag on the way to a full shell, which grants access to the second flag.
The article is divided into the following sections:
→Actual ASLR 1
– Binary
– Random Algorithm
– Reimplementation In Python
– First Flag
→Actual ASLR 2
– Custom Heap
– Vulnerability
– Heap Leak
– Image Base Leak
– Overwriting Function Pointer
– Final Exploit

The CTF was worked out very well. There have been plenty of interesting and creative challenges.
This time I decided to focus on the category web and managed to solve the challenge JS safe 2.0, which was the easiest one of the web-challenges based on the amount of solves. Nevertheless it really took my some time to dodge all the pitfalls I stumbled upon while solving the challenge.

As the description on ctftime.org states, the ctf is primarily geared towards high school students but with a very wide range of challenge difficulty.
There have been a lot of interesting challenges which have been fun to do. I decided to make a writeup for the pwn challenge hellcode.
