Windows Kernel Exploitation

Still trying to get a stable kernel read primitive. The pool internals are a nightmare.

Rust for Tooling

Rewriting pwnlibc internals in Rust. The borrow checker fights me but the result is worth it.

Unpopular Opinions

"Ghidra > IDA for 90% of use cases"

Free, open-source, and the decompiler is good enough for most reverse engineering work. IDA is only worth it for the occasional complex binary that Ghidra struggles with.

"Most CTF writeups are unreadable"

Too many writeups skip the 'why' and jump straight to the exploit. The thought process matters more than the final payload.

"Python is a terrible choice for exploit dev"

It's great for prototyping but you'll hit a wall the moment you need precise memory control. Learn C or Rust.

"Active Directory security is 90% misconfiguration"

Most AD compromises don't involve exotic zero-days. They involve default configs, excessive permissions, and nobody reading the logs.

Failures & Growth

failed project

The Automated Pentest Tool That Wasn't

Started building a fully automated penetration testing framework. Realized halfway through that automating everything removes the critical thinking that makes pentesting valuable. The tool became a script collection that nobody would use.

lesson: Automation should augment human judgment, not replace it. Now I build tools that make specific tasks faster, not tools that try to do everything.

real talk

Imposter Syndrome in Security

Spent months feeling like I didn't belong because I couldn't do kernel exploitation from scratch. Then I realized nobody can. Everyone Googles, everyone copies from their own old code, everyone struggles. The people who look effortless are just better at hiding the struggle.

lesson: Share the struggles, not just the wins. The security community needs more honesty about how hard this stuff actually is.

real-commit-log.txt

fix: why does this segfault on my machine

fix: ACTUALLY fix the segfault this time

feat: it works but i have no idea why

docs: added comments so future me understands

refactor: broke everything into smaller pieces

fix: the smaller pieces don't work together

Real commit messages from my repos. The journey from confusion to understanding, one git commit at a time.
