Pwnium CTF Retrospective

• Dimitris is discussing the challenges solved by Team Knuffelhackers in the Pwnium CTF last weekend
• Kernel land (150 points):
  • Static binary - Dimitris loaded it into QEMU
  • When he runs it it produces ticks - the hint: the flag is on the 3rd ticket
  • He added a debugger to the VM
  • He put a breakpoint on timer tick - and there's also a variable called 'flag'
  • He needed to add the symbols to GDB
  • He single stepped through the "ticks" , through the 3rd tick, and then examine the flag variable in memory at Tick 3
• USB is fun:
