      <title>Heap Drift: Misaligned Write in SafeMail’s Attachment Parser</title>
      <link>https://n9o.xyz/reverseengineering/safemail/</link>

      <description>&lt;h3 class=&#34;relative group&#34;&gt;Prologue 
    &lt;div id=&#34;prologue&#34; class=&#34;anchor&#34;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
    
    &lt;span
        class=&#34;absolute top-0 w-6 transition-opacity opacity-0 ltr:-left-6 rtl:-right-6 not-prose group-hover:opacity-100&#34;&gt;
        &lt;a class=&#34;group-hover:text-primary-300 dark:group-hover:text-neutral-700 !no-underline&#34; href=&#34;#prologue&#34; aria-label=&#34;Anchor&#34;&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;
    &lt;/span&gt;        
    
&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Started out just poking at SafeMail’s desktop client because I was curious how they handled attachments. It’s always those small parsing subsystems where things fall apart. I loaded up the binary in IDA and watched the way filenames were processed when attachments were being saved.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Chaining Control: ROP Exploitation in HealthDesk Report Viewer</title>
      <link>https://n9o.xyz/reverseengineering/healthdesk/</link>

      <description>&lt;h1 class=&#34;relative group&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Prologue — CSVs, Gadgets &amp;amp; Shells&lt;/strong&gt; 
    &lt;div id=&#34;prologue--csvs-gadgets--shells&#34; class=&#34;anchor&#34;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
    
    &lt;span
        class=&#34;absolute top-0 w-6 transition-opacity opacity-0 ltr:-left-6 rtl:-right-6 not-prose group-hover:opacity-100&#34;&gt;
        &lt;a class=&#34;group-hover:text-primary-300 dark:group-hover:text-neutral-700 !no-underline&#34; href=&#34;#prologue--csvs-gadgets--shells&#34; aria-label=&#34;Anchor&#34;&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;
    &lt;/span&gt;        
    
&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It started with a curiosity hit—an old install of &lt;strong&gt;HealthDesk Report Viewer&lt;/strong&gt;, still alive on a legacy Windows 7 x86 box. Binary hadn&amp;rsquo;t been touched since 2010. And it was one of those static base address builds, no ASLR, no DEP, no nothing. Just waiting.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>From Blob to Boom: Insecure Deserialization in FinPro CRM</title>
      <link>https://n9o.xyz/reverseengineering/finpro/</link>

      <description>&lt;h1 class=&#34;relative group&#34;&gt;Insecure Deserialization in FinPro CRM Client (x86) 
    &lt;div id=&#34;insecure-deserialization-in-finpro-crm-client-x86&#34; class=&#34;anchor&#34;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
    
    &lt;span
        class=&#34;absolute top-0 w-6 transition-opacity opacity-0 ltr:-left-6 rtl:-right-6 not-prose group-hover:opacity-100&#34;&gt;
        &lt;a class=&#34;group-hover:text-primary-300 dark:group-hover:text-neutral-700 !no-underline&#34; href=&#34;#insecure-deserialization-in-finpro-crm-client-x86&#34; aria-label=&#34;Anchor&#34;&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;
    &lt;/span&gt;        
    
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;h2 class=&#34;relative group&#34;&gt;Prologue: Old Habits, Unsafe Casts 
    &lt;div id=&#34;prologue-old-habits-unsafe-casts&#34; class=&#34;anchor&#34;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
    
    &lt;span
        class=&#34;absolute top-0 w-6 transition-opacity opacity-0 ltr:-left-6 rtl:-right-6 not-prose group-hover:opacity-100&#34;&gt;
        &lt;a class=&#34;group-hover:text-primary-300 dark:group-hover:text-neutral-700 !no-underline&#34; href=&#34;#prologue-old-habits-unsafe-casts&#34; aria-label=&#34;Anchor&#34;&gt;#&lt;/a&gt;
    &lt;/span&gt;        
    
&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was poking through a legacy CRM tool called FinPro — the kind your dad’s office might still be using. Clunky GUI, startup splash screen, and an installer that required admin rights. Perfect vintage.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

    &lt;div id=&#34;buffer-overflow-in-paysafetech-payment-daemon&#34; class=&#34;anchor&#34;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
    
    &lt;span
        class=&#34;absolute top-0 w-6 transition-opacity opacity-0 ltr:-left-6 rtl:-right-6 not-prose group-hover:opacity-100&#34;&gt;

    &lt;/span&gt;        
    
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;h2 class=&#34;relative group&#34;&gt;Prologue: The Ghost in the Machine 
    &lt;div id=&#34;prologue-the-ghost-in-the-machine&#34; class=&#34;anchor&#34;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
    
    &lt;span
        class=&#34;absolute top-0 w-6 transition-opacity opacity-0 ltr:-left-6 rtl:-right-6 not-prose group-hover:opacity-100&#34;&gt;

    &lt;/span&gt;        
    
&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The smell of late-night coffee and burnt solder still hung in the air. It was one of those nights — quiet, focused, and laced with the promise of uncovering something&amp;hellip; forgotten.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
