Capture The Flag evening - Part 8

General CTF Info

We're happy with our performance at the Codegate CTF!
Exploiting assembly code with a debugger is still one of our largest hurdles (with the exception of a few people)
TODO Marielle: save a copy of the pad contents from Riseup.net before it disappears
We need a better way of sharing stuff
Dimitris setup some great infra, including a file uploader
- Melanie sent a link to the CTF mailing list with the URL and the login credentials
- Melanie wasn't able to successfully upload IDA Pro though -- file size limit issues
- Another limitation is that we can't arrange things into folders ourselves
- TODO Coolfile: setup a Knuffelhackers server + backup file sharing option, since 2 options are better than 1 :-)

Discussion of problems - we discussed: Weirdshark and 120
The write-ups for Codegate on CTFtime.org still aren't available yet!
- We'll email a link to the write-ups when they are available, and can discuss them on the mailing list.

We definitely need to have an IDA Pro reversing evening -- we'll plan this in
- But first we need to share it with everybody
- Melanie created a Windows VM with IDA. She can share it with everybody once the file sharing infrastructure is ready..

We're gonna look at Chapter 3 (Exploitation - start at Page 119) of this book:
- Hacking: the Art of Exploitation
