PSS gets "texts for newbies" by the bucketload. However, this is quite different. It has the "newbie hacking basics" presented in a tasteful and useful manner. Later, it goes into "novice/intermediate" tactics that many as piring (though not yet leet) hackers will find usefull. And finally, in sections such as Firewall Penetration experienced hackers will find valuable theroritical and practical tactics and techniques. All in all, Digital Voodoo is a great reference and resource for hacker and security specialist alike.

Description:
|
This document describes a simple and efficient method for random selection of a client port number, such that the possibility of an attacker guessing the exact value is reduced. While this is not a replacement for cryptographic methods, the described port number randomization algorithms provide improved security/obfuscation with very little effort and without any key management overhead. The mechanisms described in this document are a local modification that may be incrementally deployed, and that does not violate the specifications of any of the transport protocols that may benefit from it, such as TCP, UDP, SCTP, DCCP, and RTP.

Description:

Recently, awareness has been raised about a number of "blind" attacks that can be performed against the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and similar protocols. The consequences of these attacks range from throughput-reduction to broken connections or data corruption. These attacks rely on the attacker's ability to guess or know the four- tuple (Source Address, Destination Address, Source port, Destination Port) that identifies the transport protocol instance to be attacked. This document describes a simple and efficient method for random selection of the client port number, such that the possibility of an attacker guessing the exact value is reduced. While this is not a replacement for cryptographic methods, the described port number randomization algorithms provide improved security/obfuscation with very little effort and without any key management overhead. Both text and pdf formats of this paper are included.

Overwriting the .dtors section - This paper presents a concise explanation of a technique to gain control of a C program's flow of execution given that it has been compiled with gcc. This exploit technique has several advantages over changing the stack pointer, including ease of determining the exact position where we want to write and point to our shellcode, and is simpler than a GOT patch.
