Plt;bPgt;Find vulnerabilities before anyone else does.Plt;/bPgt;Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;Zero days arenP#8217;t magicP#8212;theyP#8217;re missed opportunities. Plt;iPgt;From Day Zero to Zero DayPlt;/iPgt; teaches you how to find them before anyone else does.Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;In this hands-on guide, award-winning white-hat hacker Eugene P#8220;SpaceraccoonP#8221; Lim breaks down the real-world process of vulnerability discovery. YouP#8217;ll retrace the steps behind past CVEs, analyze open source and embedded targets, and build a repeatable workflow for uncovering critical flaws in code.Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;Whether youP#8217;re new to vulnerability research or sharpening an existing skill set, this book will show you how to thinkP#8212;and workP#8212;like a bug hunter.Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;YouP#8217;ll learn how to:Plt;brPgt;Plt;ulPgt;Plt;liPgt;Identify promising targets across codebases, protocols, and file formats. Plt;brPgt;Plt;/liPgt;Plt;liPgt;Trace code paths with taint analysis and map attack surfaces with precision.Plt;brPgt;Plt;/liPgt;Plt;liPgt;Reverse engineer binaries using Ghidra, Frida, and angr.Plt;brPgt;Plt;/liPgt;Plt;liPgt;Apply coverage-guided fuzzing, symbolic execution, and variant analysis.Plt;brPgt;Plt;/liPgt;Plt;liPgt;Build and validate proof-of-concept exploits to demonstrate real-world impact.Plt;brPgt;Plt;/liPgt;Plt;/ulPgt;Plt;brPgt;More than a toolkit, this is a window into how top vulnerability researchers approach the work. YouP#8217;ll gain not just techniques but also the mindset to go deeper, ask better questions, and find what others miss.Plt;brPgt;Plt;brPgt;If youP#8217;re ready to stop reading write-ups and start writing them, Plt;iPgt;From Day Zero to Zero DayPlt;/iPgt; is your guide.
