Full task list on CTFtime

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.

Reverse engineering4

Work out what a compiled program does without its source, then work backwards from the check to the input that passes it.

Forensics3

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