What it does
Linux kernel exploitation playbook. Use when exploiting kernel vulnerabilities (UAF, OOB, race condition, type confusion) for privilege escalation via commit_creds, modprobe_path overwrite, or kernel ROP chains in CTF and real-world scenarios.
SKILL: Linux Kernel Exploitation, Expert Attack Playbook
AI LOAD INSTRUCTION: Expert kernel exploitation techniques. Covers environment setup (QEMU), vulnerability classes, privilege escalation targets, kernel ROP, ret2usr, stack pivoting, and cross-cache attacks. Distilled from ctf-wiki kernel-mode sections and real-world kernel CVEs. Base models often confuse user-mode and kernel-mode exploitation constraints, especially regarding SMEP/SMAP/KPTI.

- binary-protection-bypass, userspace protections (NX, ASLR) also apply in kernel context
- stack-overflow-and-rop, kernel ROP reuses many userspace ROP concepts
- heap-exploitation, kernel SLUB is conceptually related to userspace heap
- linux-privilege-escalation, non-exploit kernel privesc techniques
