What sort of place do you think Raddle is?

Not a chatroom but dread has a forum for hacking

dig [-x addr]

You can make up your own, add it to the hosts file and call it whatever you want!

They're looking for leaks, they should look under the bathroom or kitchen couch

Have you checked under the couch? Lots of stuff roll under the couch.

I follow a Youtube and Twitch content creator who is an spanish ethical hacker called s4vitar, he had made an interesting video on how insecure it is to use "tryhackme". If you understand spanish, look it up!

thx a lot!!!

Internet facing things get port scanned all the time. No one is going to notice if you just scan ports.

If you are paranoid you can use an OS like Tails and route your scan through the tor network.

I wonder why nobody mentions

tryhackme.com/

and

Most stuff is behind paywall but you have vms to train metasploit skill etc.

you have to pay for it

NYT is trash so here’s an obit without a paywall: https://www.dignitymemorial.com/obituaries/las-vegas-nv/kevin-mitnick-11371668

It can be used that way but it was meant to compete with fortran and smalltalk.

Well I'm pretty sure that C was supposed to be a kind of "portable assenbler"

Also sorry for not mentioning this earlier but I meant programming websites

The wargames on overthewire.org might be up your alley.

I did a lot of x86 kernel work. Assembler was a must. Some stuff, like accessing the cmos memory, requires abuse of inline assembler. Even some newer x86-64 stuff needs inline assembler for stuff like entering ring -1.

Interesting definition. If we're using your definition then by "high-level" I meant scripting language.

A high level language is anything more abstract than assembler. Though you can use c as a macro assembler if you like

Well... sort of if you compare it to assembly. But compared to other languages it's basically the closest you can get without being assembly. I don't think manual memory management is a high level feature

C is a high level language.

Uhh, that's more of a learning project than an exploitation exercise. Feel free to do it if you want to but personally I don't think it'll help unless you want to try to find exploits in the parser later to practice binary exploitation.

Most of the times exploits are written using a high level language like Python to make things easier, and most of the time people are going to use some utility library like pwntools to speed things up even more

It’s just that with c, sockets are all you got for web programming. You can write your own html parser on top of that, maybe I should try that.

Well if you think that it would benefit your understand of sockets, then sure. Although I'm pretty sure most of it would just be figuring out how to communicate with the operating system APIs.

Also, most web exploits are done with some loophole in the application code, not with sockets. Sockets are just a way to transport the data (unless you can figure out a way to exploit that transport of course).

Look up tutorials on securing websites. Then look for sites that didn't secure themselves.
