Root Cause Analysis – Memory Corruption Vulnerabilities
Introduction For the past year or so I’ve spent a significant amount of time fuzzing various applications with the hopes of identifying exploitable crashes.

However, determining the exploitability of these crashes, […]
Heap Layout Visualization with mona.py and WinDBG

With this announcement, we also declare pvefindaddr officially dead from this point forward. (This doesn’t mean pvefindaddr is now entirely worthless, because not all functions have been ported into mona yet, but we won’t be releasing any updates to pvefindaddr anymore and the entire project page/download page will eventually disappear)
