    so they're used in combination with already known exploits but you're saying no one uses them during the development of exploits?
    • saagarjha 3y ago
      No, they’re mostly toys and demos. They’re not an accurate representation of real-world exploit development.

        oh i must be confused about what a CTF challenge is
        • saagarjha 3y ago
          CTF challenges are to cooking competitions what exploit development is to being a restaurant cook. There are time limits, practicality is less of a concern, and everyone knows that toy constraints are added because nobody wants to watch you stare at IDA for three weeks
