Provides binary exploitation techniques for CTF challenges. Use when you already have a vulnerable native target or service and need to turn memory corruption or low-level primitives into code execution or privilege escalation, such as buffer overflows, format strings, heap bugs, ROP, ret2libc, shellcode, kernel exploitation, seccomp bypass, sandbox escape, or Windows/Linux exploit chains. Do not use it when the main blocker is understanding what the binary does; use reverse engineering first. Do not use it for pure web bugs, disk or packet forensics, or standalone crypto/math challenges.
