Pwndbg: Low level debugging and exploit development with Python

In this talk we will introduce Pwndbg (/paʊnˈdiˌbʌɡ/), a Python tool that auguments GDB and LLDB debuggers, making low-level debugging, security research, and exploit development more efficient and intuitive.

We will explore Pwndbg's user-friendly context display and powerful commands, showing how they can dramatically enhance the speed to understand what is going on in the given assembly code.

We will also see how Pwndbg can help with investigating things like stack canaries or heap allocators as well as we will see how it can be helpful during low level exploitation.
