Hack Back! Malware Reverse Engineering and Command & Control Server Exploitation

Presented at BSidesLV 2019, Aug. 6, 2019, 8 a.m. (235 minutes)

Have you ever wanted to pop a C2 server and swim upstream into adversary red space? Threat Sims Hack Back Workshop is designed to guide students through the process of reversing a simple linux beaconing implant, decoding the communication protocol, fuzzing a command & control server and culminating in the crafting and throwing a remote exploit to pop a shell and swim upstream into adversary red space. Students will be guided through exercise with helpful code templates and resources. The workshop is geared to those of intermediate experience.
