Introduction To Format Strings

What?

This presentation tries to cover the basics of format strings exploitation. Starting with an explanation of the legitimate use of Format Strings (Yin) moving onto how programming flaws can be exploited using this technique.

Why?

I spent many months getting my head aorund the nuonces of FS explitation so though I would put together a presentation on all the little things that I though were they key points when coming accross this subject for the first time. This hopefully will  act as a good basis for the More Adventures In Format Strings presentation
