Exploit Development Instructions

CRITICAL: Use Existing ExploitContext

Before attempting ANY exploit development, you MUST load the existing ExploitContext from the mitigation analysis phase. DO NOT re-run reconnaissance commands.

Load Context

from packages.exploit_feasibility import FeasibilityReport, ExploitContext

# Option 1: Load full report
report = FeasibilityReport.load("out/context.json")
ctx = report.to_context()

# Option 2: Load just the context
ctx = FeasibilityReport.load_context("out/context.json")

Query Data

# Dot-path access
system_offset = ctx.get('libc.system_offset')
has_canary = ctx.get('binary.protections.canary')
full_relro = ctx.get('binary.protections.full_relro')
bad_bytes = ctx.get('payload.bad_bytes', [])

# Attribute access
if ctx.libc.hooks_available:
    hook_addr = ctx.libc.malloc_hook_offset

# Get all libc data
libc_data = ctx.get_section('libc')

# Check source of data
source = ctx.get_source('libc.system_offset')  # Returns 'nm -D libc'

FORBIDDEN: Redundant Commands

The following commands have ALREADY been run during mitigation analysis. DO NOT run them again:

Standard Context Keys

payload.bad_bytes       - List of bytes that can't appear in payload

write_targets           - List of ranked write targets
verdict                 - Exploitability verdict
blockers                - List of exploitation blockers
warnings                - List of exploitation warnings

Workflow

1. Check if context exists

   from pathlib import Path
   context_path = f"out/{binary_name}_context.json"
   if not Path(context_path).exists():
       print("ERROR: Run mitigation analysis first")
       print("  python3 raptor.py analyze <binary>")
       sys.exit(1)
   

2. Load and validate context

   ctx = FeasibilityReport.load_context(context_path)
   
   # Check for blockers
   if ctx.get('verdict') == 'blocked':
       print("Exploitation blocked by:")
       for b in ctx.get('blockers', []):
           print(f"  - {b}")
       sys.exit(1)
   

3. Use context data for exploit

   # Calculate addresses
   libc_base = leaked_addr - ctx.get('libc.system_offset')
   system = libc_base + ctx.get('libc.system_offset')
   bin_sh = libc_base + ctx.get('libc.bin_sh_offset')
   
   # Check constraints
   if ctx.get('binary.protections.full_relro'):
       print("Cannot use GOT overwrite - Full RELRO")
   
   # Get write targets
   for target in ctx.get('write_targets', []):
       if not target['has_bad_bytes']:
           print(f"Try: {target['name']} @ 0x{target['address']:x}")
   

Why This Matters

• Efficiency: Don't waste time re-collecting data that already exists
• Consistency: Same data used across analysis and exploitation phases
• Debugging: Source tracking shows where each value came from
• Reproducibility: Context can be saved/loaded for later use
