[Pwn] CTF Sim [Tamu CTF 2022]

0x0 Introduction

Author: Lane

Wanna take a break from the ctf to do another ctf?

libc is glibc-2.28 on Debian Buster

SNI: ctf-sim

files: ctf_sim, ctf_sim.cpp

0x2 Vulnerability

looking at the code, there is a very trivial dangling pointer in obj.download. After a challenge is deleted, obj.downlaod still have a pointer point to the original heap address.

Thats said, after we free a challenge. we can use submitWriteup to malloc a same lengh of data in the heap, this will return the same address as before.

Then, we can write win_addr into the heap and call solveChallenge again. Then we will successfully enter win function and get a shell.
