Hi, I am interested in exploiting applications. I have some practice
in writing exploits (buffer overflow, format string, ...) in linux. I
want to start exploiting real applications (open source). I don't know
how to start with finding bugs in application's source. I can use
perl, grep, etc... for finding some statical buffers, strcpys, etc.
but it's good just for some explorative research. Could you post some
sources where can I learn some about source code auditing?
