Hack software by intercepting and manipulating memory on Linux.

Memory Exploit Game 💾🕹️

Introduction

Memory Exploit Game is a command-line game on Linux where you manipulate memory to influence gameplay dynamics. The challenge includes guessing characters (m, a, s, t, e, r) to maintain your balance without running out.

Game Dynamics

• Initial Balance: 300
• Guessing Mechanism: Choose characters (m, a, s, t, e, r).
• Outcome:
  • Correct Guess: Balance x2.
  • Incorrect Guess: Deduct 100 from balance.
• Game Termination: Balance hits 0, displaying the number of moves made.
• Endless Play: Continues indefinitely if you keep guessing correctly.

Hack Script (hack.sh)

Use hack.sh to gain privileged access and manipulate memory to cheat the game. The game's challenge includes code segments placed in the heap, increasing the difficulty of cheating effectively.

Usage

1. Run the Game:

   ./game

   Start the command-line game.

2. Use Hack Script:

   sudo ./hack.sh

   Access and manipulate memory to influence game outcomes.
