Linux x64 Exploit Development: Full Course for Beginners

Learn how memory-corruption exploits really work on 64-bit Linux — from assembly basics to defeating modern mitigations — the right way, for CTFs and offensive-security certifications.

This is a hands-on, entry-to-intermediate binary exploitation course. You'll start with x64 assembly fundamentals, then build your first stack buffer-overflow exploit step by step — compiling the vulnerable program, crashing it, finding the offset, and gaining control. From there you'll write your own Linux x64 shellcode (execve and more), and learn how modern exploit mitigations work and how researchers get around them: defeating NX with return-to-libc, Return-Oriented Programming (ROP), and bypassing ASLR with ret2plt (PLT & GOT). Understanding these techniques is exactly what CTF players, exploit developers and red teamers — and the defenders who harden systems against them — need to know.

⚠️ For educational purposes only. All techniques are demonstrated on vulnerable programs in your own lab. Apply them only to software and systems you own or are explicitly authorized to test. Developing or using exploits against systems without permission is illegal.
