deep technical & strategy
A brief writeup for the exploit that I wrote for a JavaScript JIT Type Confusion vulnerability in Jscript9.dll (2017). In the exploit I show one classical technique of JavaScript engines exploitation with a fully dynamic ASLR bypass, plus state-of-the-art process continuation to avoid crash. Full exploit code is included.
At Pwn2Own Vancouver 2021 I have demonstrated an 0day VM escape exploit for Parallels Desktop hypervisor. The exploit chain that I developed was based on logic issues. In this deep technical presentation I share the technical details of the exploit, as well as various preliminary and contextual knowledge related to it. (Slides)
