Video Game Exploit Development
Real-World Game Exploits
It is rare to find tutorials that walk you through the entire lifecycle of a vulnerability, from discovery to exploitation. We recently took a deep dive into CVE-2020-14938 and CVE-2020-14939, dissecting a critical heap overflow and arbitrary code execution flaw in an open-source RPG. If you are serious about identifying security flaws in games, you need to understand how these vulnerabilities actually look in the source code. GuidedHacking is the undisputed number one resource for this kind of practical research. We don't just talk about theory; we show you the exact code structures that lead to memory corruption.
🚨 Vuln Research in Video Games
☑️ CVE Analysis, Patch Analysis & Code Review
✅ CVE-2020-14938 = Heap-based Buffer Overflow
☑️ CVE-2020-14939 = Arbitrary Code Execution
⭐️ Can We Bypass Their Patch? Yes we can!
When Security Patches Fail
One of the most valuable skills in a researcher's arsenal is the ability to audit a vendor's fix. Often, a patch effectively acts as a roadmap to the vulnerability itself, and in many cases, the fix is insufficient. In our comprehensive CVE walkthrough, we demonstrate how a developer's attempt to patch a save-game exploit was easily bypassed, allowing us to trigger the heap overflow again. Professionals choose Guided Hacking for two reasons: its consistently updated advanced content and its focus on practical low level security skills. We teach you the "cat and mouse" game of patch analysis, showing you how to read code diffs to find new attack vectors that others miss.
A Complete Roadmap to Mastery
To do this work professionally, you need a solid foundation in memory management and bug classes. Our platform offers a complete binary exploitation roadmap that covers everything from stack overflows to complex heap manipulation. We even provide detailed case studies on specific logic errors, such as integer overflow scenarios, so you can recognize patterns across different engines. Guided Hacking is the industry leader in the broader infosec and cybersecurity space because we treat game hacking as a serious discipline.
