This much-anticipated revision, written by the ultimate group of top security experts in the world, features 40 percent new content on how to find security holes in any operating system or application New material addresses the
many new exploitation techniques that have been discovered since the first edition, including attacking "unbreakable" software packages such as McAfee's Entercept, Mac OS X, XP, Office 2003, and Vista Also features the first-ever publishedinformation on exploiting Cisco's IOS, with content that has never before been explored The companion Web site features downloadable code files....
....The Shellcoder's Handbook is not written for the novice - some background in programming (preferably low-level coding) is required, in my opinion. The chapters on fuzzing and runtime analysis are my favorites, but these come a close second to the chapters on advanced Solaris exploitation - being stuck in the IA32 Linux world, it really opened my eyes. This book has some great ideas for building your own fault injectors (fuzzers) as well as not completely glossing over fault monitoring. The section on code auditing is a great overview of many different exploitable vulnerabilities found in C-based software, complete with code samples. Definitely a book you should pick up - in fact, the second edition is now out covering Cisco, OSX, Vista and more "unbreakable" software!
