An Introduction to ARM64 Assembly and Shellcode is a workshop for those interested in getting a quick start into the world of 64-bit ARM binary exploitation. ARM64 is in several ways vastly different than ARM32.
In this bring-your-own-laptop workshop, participants will get to learn the key differences between ARM32 and ARM64 from an assembly language perspective, get some hands-on introduction to writing simple ARM64 assembly code, working with a debugging environment and concluding with writing their own ARM64 shellcode.
AN INTRODUCTION TO ARM64 ASSEMBLY AND SHELLCODE
WORKSHOP AGENDA
- An introduction to ARM64 architecture and assembly
- Working with an emulated ARM64 instance
- Fundamental differences between ARM32 and ARM64 assembly
- The 64-bit process memory layout and addressing
- The ARM64 debugging environment
- Exploring memory corruption bugs on ARM64
- Practical ARM64 shellcode
To participate interactively in this hands-on workshop, please bring with you:
- A Linux/macOS system with Docker installed and running
To make the most out of the workshop, it would be awesome if you have:
- Familiarity with Intel x86 or ARM32 Assembly Language
- Basic experience with disassembly and reverse engineering
- A working knowledge of GDB
- The ability to write simple Python scripts
