We will be writing the exploit under Windows XP SP2 for now, so we can avoid the extra protections put in place on newer versions of windows.
You will need the following applications/tools to complete this recipe:
- Gimp (2.6.11 was used)
- Immunity Debugger (1.8 was used)
- pvefindaddr (Peter Van Eeckhoutte's Immunity Debugger plugin)
- Metasploit ( For payload generation)
- Notepad++ (You can use any text editor, I just prefer this one)
- HxD (You can use any Hex Editor, this is just the one I use)
