Misc19

Everything that fits no other box: esolangs, puzzles, scripting exercises, and the jail escapes that have not yet earned their own category.

Cryptography6

Recover a plaintext or a key from something that was supposed to protect it. In practice: identify the scheme, find the parameter the author got wrong, exploit it.

Binary exploitation4

Turn a memory-safety bug in a native binary into control of execution. Usually a stack overflow, a format string, or a heap primitive.

Web3

Reach data or functionality the application meant to keep from you - through its inputs, its tokens, or its trust in the client.

Forensics2

Recover something from a file, a capture, or a disk image - often from a part of it the format says is unused.
