* gdb.corefile: Run gdb directly to prevent detach race
`attach()` waits for the debugger to attach by polling the `TracerPid` regularly. `corefile()` runs `detach` in gdb after dumping the core, so the debugger might attach and detach between two `TracerPid` polls and `wait_for_debugger()` thinks gdb exited before attaching and returns `None` as gdb's pid is no longer valid.
Later `corefile()` ran `psutil.Process(pid).wait()` with `pid = None` which effectively waited on the Python process itself to exit.
This caused a hang in the doctest CI sometimes, which was killed by the watchdog timer eventually.
Run `gdb` directly and just observe the exit code instead of relying on the more advanced `attach` logic for longer running debug sessions.
* Update CHANGELOG
* fix(packing): dd() raises TypeError on a bytearray destination
dd() documents bytearray as a supported destination type, but
dd(bytearray(b'Hello!'), b'?', skip=5) raises
"TypeError: 'bytes' object cannot be interpreted as an integer".
pwnlib/util/packing.py:1108 handled list and bytearray destinations in a
single branch and filled both with list(map(p8, bytearray(src))). p8()
returns a length-1 bytes object, which is what a list destination is
documented to hold (see the existing dd(list('Hello!'), (63,), skip=5)
doctest), but a bytearray slice assignment needs an iterable of int, so
every bytearray destination crashed.
Assign the byte string src directly when the destination is a bytearray.
Every src branch above the destination dispatch (packing.py:1039-1089)
has already reduced src to a byte string, so the slice assignment is
always valid. This also makes a bytearray destination agree with the
bytes and str destinations, which already copy src verbatim.
Add a doctest covering the returned value and the in-place update of the
caller's bytearray.

* Disable debuginfod tests in libcdb.unstrip_libc
The external debuginfod servers are really slow or won't respond at all like debuginfod.ubuntu.com.
The caching in CI doesn't help since we only cache it for 3 month and the query fails afterwards most of the time. We cache the negative response too which doesn't help if the service is flakey itself :D

* Allow running with Unicorn 2.1.[34] but throw when emulating MIPS
Unicorn 2.1.5 wasn't released for a while and 2.1.2 doesn't have binary wheels for Python 3.14.
This made installing pwntools on newer Python versions more annoying since you had to build Unicorn yourself.
The only problem with the blocked versions is MIPS emulation, so only avoid that while allowing to use Unicorn 2.1.3 or 2.1.4 for other architectures.

* Update CHANGELOG
* Fix _build_date() crash on non-standard locale date strings (#2513)
Some Android devices return locale-dependent strings in ro.build.date
(e.g. '2017年 11月 14日 星期二 09:55:07 CST' for Chinese locale) that
dateutil.parser.parse() cannot handle, causing wait_for_device() to
crash with a ParserError.
Fix: prefer ro.build.date.utc (integer epoch timestamp) which is
locale-independent and available on all Android devices. Fall back
to ro.build.date with error handling if the UTC property is missing.
* Add CHANGELOG entry for #2513 fix
* Simplify _build_date(): prefer ro.build.date.utc, keep minimal fallback
Address review: ro.build.date.utc is set by the AOSP build system
and available on all standard Android devices. Simplified comments
to reflect this is the primary path, with ro.build.date kept only
as a fallback for non-standard builds.
* Move CHANGELOG entry

* fix: pad bytes fields to correct field size in FileStructure
When setting bytes fields (e.g. _IO_save_base) on FileStructure, the

differs from the pointer size.

* Fix regression: gdbserver can't handle command-line argument containing whitespace
The `--no-startup-with-shell` argument was passed in an attempt to
fix gdbserver startup with `SHELL=/bin/fish`. (#2377) It caused a regression
which disallowed passing arguments containing whitespace to the debuggee in `gdb.debug`.
gdbserver would exit with a message:
"can't handle command-line argument containing whitespace"
There is a 3 second timeout waiting for gdbserver to startup and
printing a message with a workaround already suggesting to set
`SHELL=/bin/bash` to allow gdbserver to launch. This has to be
our best effort to guide users of such shells until we find time
to investigate a better solution.

* Fix log level of child remotes of `server` tube

Fixes#2594
* Update CHANGELOG
* Support longer function names in Windows getexport shellcode
Previously, an arbitrary name length limit of 8 characters was in place due to the lack of a proper strcmp loop. Implement a cheap strcmp for longer function names.
This trashes a bunch of registers and we might be able to optimize it further to reduce the damage.
Use a unique label too to avoid redefinition when using the shellcraft template twice in the same shellcode. Use the mov shellcraft template for the destination register to avoid an instruction if the result is already in the desired register.
* Update CHANGELOG
* Add Ubuntu and Debian debuginfod servers
Most CTF challenges are hosted on Ubuntu or Debian [citation needed], so check their debuginfod servers before trying the federating one as a fallback.
This is required since the elfutils.org server seems down for maintenance occasionally.

* Add automatic detection of statically linked binaries in `detect_missing_binaries` function.
* Add entry for PR #2570 to CHANGELOG.md: fix `pwn template` for statically linked binaries.

Enable DOT_ALL next to the default MULTILINE regex flags to match newlines too with the `.*?`.
```
/* this works */
/*
this is not highlighted as a comment
*/
```
Lets say we have an ELF with the following symbols
```
Symbol table '.symtab' contains 5 entries:
Num: Value Size Type Bind Vis Ndx Name
0: 0000000000000000 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT UND
1: 0000000000000035 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 aaaa
2: 0000000000000022 0 NOTYPE LOCAL DEFAULT 2 bbbb
3: 0000000000000000 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 2 cccc
4: 0000000000000054 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 2 dddd
```
Then pwnlib's ELF(binary).symbols will be `{'aaaa': 53, 'bbbb': 34, 'dddd': 84}`.
This is missing the symbol `cccc`, because its value is 0.
This change checks the name instead of the value, because the value can
be 0 if the symbol points to the beginning.
The new and correct value of pwnlib's ELF(binary).symbols will be
`{'aaaa': 53, 'cccc': 0, 'bbbb': 34, 'dddd': 84}`.

There were additional `timeout=X` additions in #2382 which caused tests to fail randomly when a timeout was reached. The tests run through occationally, so it's not an infinite loop. But flakey tests are annoying and I don't see a reason for the timeout additions to the doctests for the core patch of that PR other than failing early during manual tests of new functionality. CI running smoothly is more important than fast failing during development on the gdb module imo.

* Fix registering commandline subparsers multiple times for Python 3.11
Python 3.11 added a sanity check to argparse to prevent registering the same subparser multiple times.
argparse.ArgumentError: argument command: conflicting subparser: cyclic
Avoid importing the command twice.
`python -m pwnlib.commandline.cyclic` failed on Python 3.11 triggered in CI when running the commandline tools while collecting coverage.
* Fix pip cache in CI
* Fix returning wrong pid in WSL for run_in_new_terminal
We run cmd.exe which and other Windows processes before going back into WSL. The returned pid would be the one for the ephemeral cmd.exe process instead of the real command we wanted to launch.
I don't know how to properly trace the execution and get the command pid, so scan for newer pids matching the command for a while instead as a workaround.
We wrap the command in a script so psutil.Process.exe() returns the path to the shell instead of the real command. Look at psutil.Process.cmdline() too which contains the real program running right now.
* Make `proc.wait_for_debugger` return the debugger pid
If we fail to get the pid when launching gdb, grab it after tracing the debugger at least. gdb won't be closed when the exploit exits but at least we have the correct pid.
* Fix working directory of run_in_new_terminal in WSL
The process' cwd would be %WINDIR% due to cmd.exe not supporting WSL paths.
* Update CHANGELOG
The upload-artifact action v4.4.0 excluded hidden files from uploads by default. We want to upload only hidden `.coverage*` files though. Enable hidden files again using the `include-hidden-files` input.
https://github.com/actions/upload-artifact/releases/tag/v4.4.0
* Add ELF.close() to release resources
`ELFFile.close()` just closes the mmap'd file, but our own wrapper keeps the file handle open.
This is annoying when using a temporary file on Windows since they can't be deleted if there is
a dangling handle. This can be used together with the inherited context manager from ELFFile.
* Update CHANGELOG

The Unicorn Engine 1GB workaround doesn't work since `mmap` has different semantics on Windows.

On Ubuntu 22.04 gdb.debug() takes at least 2 seconds. This is because
it prints only "Remote debugging from host 127.0.0.1, port 33398", but
the code expects 2 lines.
It's very unclear what the second line is supposed to be; the only lead
is "* Handle extra newline printed by gdb" in commit 338fbeba ("Improve
pwnup template, gdbserver detection (#1148)"), but I could not trace it
back to the GDB source code, both historic and modern. Perhaps, there
is a non-upstreamed patch in some distro that introduces it.
It should still be safe to skip waiting for the second line if the
first one already starts with "Remote debugging ...", so do it.
* added two arguments to gdb.debug:
+ port: specifies the port that should be used by the gdbserver (this is useful for alpine)
+ gdb_args: allows forwarding arguments to the gdb binary spawned by gdb.attach() (just a passthrough)
aslo downgraded "GDB Python API is supported only for local processes" to a warning, because it seems to work on some systems.

* Fix access of undefined `ssh._tried_sftp` in `raw` mode

This will cause the problem with fish shell to reappear in those cases, but

#2378
* Return buffered data on first EOF in tube.readline()
When there is still data available in the tube buffer when an EOFError occurs in
`tube.recvline()`, return that data even though it doesn't contain a newline.
The next time `tube.recvline()` is called afterwards will raise EOFError normally.
This behavior is in line with the GNU readline implementation and avoids
loss of data. It allows `tube.stream()` to print everything that's received before
the receiving end terminates.
A new warning is logged when data is returned due to an EOF informing
about the lack of the trailing newline character.
Fixes#2366

Allow to control the behavior of `tube.recvline` and
be able to suppress the new warning.

* Update CHANGELOG
* Recompute text.has_bright when num_colors changes
The number of simultaneous colors in the current terminal are queried

using the "--no-cache-dir" flag in pip install, make sure downloaded packages by pip don't cache on the system. This is a best practice that makes sure to fetch from a repo instead of using a local cached one. Further, in the case of Docker Containers, by restricting caching, we can reduce image size. In terms of stats, it depends upon the number of python packages multiplied by their respective size. e.g for heavy packages with a lot of dependencies it reduces a lot by don't cache pip packages.

- The `no_duplicate` binary that depends on
- `a/lib.so`
- `b/lib2.so`
- The `duplicate` binary that depends on
- `a/lib.so`
- `b/lib.so`
Then, the doctest tries to pull the libs from both binaries with
different `flatten` values.
* [ssh.libs] Add `remote` arg to documentation
* [ssh.libs] Remove fallback to unflattened when flatten fails
* [ssh.libs] Fix doctests
* [ssh.libs] Import pwnlib.data.elf.ssh_libs in pwnlib.data.elf
* [ssh.libs] Fix corrupted binaries
* [ssh.libs] We actually need to set the cwd since libs paths are relative
* [ssh.libs] Fix permission issues for CI
* [ssh.libs] Fix doctest
* Remove doctest attempts

* Fix pwn constgrep when it matches a non-constant type
This commit fixes the following issue:
```
root@pwndbg:~# pwn constgrep a
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/pwn", line 8, in <module>
sys.exit(main())
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.10/dist-packages/pwnlib/commandline/main.py", line 58, in main

for _, k in sorted(out):
TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'Constant' and 'type'
```
Note that it was caused because of the following type object being matched and fetched from the module object:
```
ipdb> out[25:27]
[(Constant('CS', 0xd), 'CS'), (<class 'pwnlib.constants.constant.Constant'>, 'Constant')]
ipdb> sorted(out[24:27])
*** TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'type' and 'Constant'
```
* Add test for `pwn constgrep C` to the CI
* Add changelog entry
* Add `ELF.stripped` and `ELF.debuginfo`
Show status in checksec output too.
* Update CHANGELOG
* Show stripped and debuginfo status in red in checksec
* Match against local system libc first in libcdb
Don't do any requests if the libc currently in use on the system
running the exploit matches already. This is a small short circuit
optimization when the remote target uses the same libc as the
local one.
This looks at the libc loaded by the local shell binary. This appears
more dynamic than hardcoding library paths.
Refs #983
* Update CHANGELOG
* Handle missing SHELL envvar
* Fix hash lookup
* Retry failed lookups after one week in libcdb
The libc databases might be updated to include the searched version,
so a request that failed once might work in the future.
Refs #983
* Update CHANGELOG
Visual Studio Code sets the $TERM_PROGRAM environment variable to `"vscode"` in its terminal pane,
but doesn't support opening new panes from the command line and there is no "vscode" binary.
Make sure the target binary exists before trying to launch it.
* Explicitly define p64/u64 functions for IDE support
Instead of dynamically generating the packing and unpacking helper functions using `setattr(module, name, routine)` at runtime, unroll the loop and explicitly declare all 8 helpers.
This allows IDEs to know about the function statically without running the code.
Fixes #1657
* Update CHANGELOG
* Fix u16 comment
* Lookup process executable using PATHEXT file extensions
Windows uses some file extensions to determine which file to run when given
a non-existing file.
This allows to run `calc` instead of `calc.exe`.
* Try PATHEXT in `which` directly
* Update CHANGELOG
* Add support to start a process on Windows
This is heavily inspired by https://github.com/masthoon/pwintools
Allows to use the `process` tube on a Windows host running local
processes. I've tried to keep the changes at a minimum. Windows doesn't
support non-blocking reads, so I've opted to handle the reading in a
separate thread to simulate the non-blocking check.
* Fix `misc.which()` on Windows
`os.getuid()` is only supported on unix.
* Support [read|write]mem, libs and cwd
* Update CHANGELOG
* Don't cache loaded modules
* Wait output on stdout in `process.can_recv_raw`
Instead of handling the timeout for reading poorly in `process.recv_raw`,
wait for any bytes to be available in `process.can_recv_raw` like on linux.
This prevents a 100% spin of one core in `tube.interactive()` since it
expects the thread to block for `timeout` seconds while we would return
immediately previously.
* Remove PythonForWindows dependency
This loses the `readmem` and `writemem` feature, but that's not
necessary for this basic process startup support.
* Fix cyclic imports
* Ignore errors in reading thread
This could cause a deadlock / fastfail on shutdown when stdout is closed, thus read(1) fails
and the exception is tried to be printed to the console while stderr is in the process of getting
closed.
* Make pwn template always set context.binary

* Bump unicorn dependency to >=2.0.1
We're using riscv constants now which were added in unicorn2.

* Add RISCV64 plt emulation test binaries
* Detect challenge binary and libc in `pwn template`
When the `args.exe` or `args.libc` arguments are missing, look for the
files in the current working directory.
This allows to quickly get a template by just running `pwn template`
(and maybe --host --port for remote instances).
This is inspired by https://github.com/io12/pwninit
* Update CHANGELOG
* Add --no-auto argument to disable automatic detection
Allow to keep the old static template behavior.
* Add logging about detection outcome
Inform the user that we're looking for the binaries and if we found one.
* Be more strict about libc filename detection
Check about common name patterns instead of plainly the presence of "libc" in the name.

* Use Python 3 commandline tools in Docker images
Since the Python 2 version was installed first, the Python 3 install
didn't touch the existing shell script wrapper files.
* Fix tube.clean_and_log not logging buffered data
Only new data received after the `clean_and_log` call is printed while
data already received and buffered earlier is not.
Print the buffered data first before waiting for more so we don't miss
anything.

* Add riscv64 binutils to base image
* Fix ssh.process not setting ssh_process.cwd

so the ssh_process.cwd attribute was never set.
This passes the cwd along now.
```
s = ssh(..)
io = s.process("pwd", cwd="/tmp")
io.cwd # "."
io.recvall() # b"/tmp\n"
```
* Update changelog
* Add ELF.set_runpath()
Shells out to the `patchelf` tool to patch the ELF's RUNPATH. This lets the dynamic loader look for needed shared libraries in the given path first before the system libraries when running the binary.
* Add ELF.set_interpreter()
Shells out to the `patchelf` tool to patch the ELF's PT_INTERP segment. This allows to change the ld.so used when running the binary.
* Add convenience wrapper to set runpath & interpreter
A helper function to patch the ELF such that it uses the dynamic loader and other libraries in the given folder.
* Add method to download libraries matching a libc
Download the matching libraries for the given libc binary and cache them in a local directory using `libcdb.download_libraries()`. The libraries are looked up using libc.rip and fetched from the official package repositories if available.
Only .deb and .pkg.tar.* packages are currently supported (Debian/Ubuntu, Arch).
* Add --libc argument to pwnup template
This generates code into the template which allows you to run the binary using the given libc.
The foreign libc is used by default, but you can choose to run the binary against your system's local libc using the `LOCAL_LIBC` command line argument when executing the exploit script.
* Work around Python 2 tarfile not supporting xz

Two minor changes were made in the commit:
- `which` was replaced with `command -v`
- Minor bug fix
## Why bother with `which` ?
- `POSIX` compatible
- `which` is an external process you're launching for doing very little (meaning builtins like hash, type or command are way cheaper), you can also rely on the builtins to actually do what you want, while the effects of external commands can easily vary from system to system.
- Many operating systems have a which that doesn't even set an exit status, meaning the if which foo won't even work there and will always report that foo exists, even if it doesn't (note that some POSIX shells appear to do this for hash too).
- Many operating systems make which do custom and evil stuff like change the output or even hook into the package manager.

This commit adds information that the sleep shellcraft function does not check if it returned as part of an interrupt and it does not retry the syscall if this occured.
This appears to be fixed in setuptools 62, but Python 2 is stuck at
version 44. Use a workaround which overrides the disabled user installs
temporarily.
This fixes our develop Dockerfile too!

* Shellcraft: Fix spilling syscall args to the stack

stack argument to be generated.
$ shellcraft -f asm mips.linux.sendto 3 0x123456 0x100 0 0xabcdefff 0x10
The 0xabcdefff argument was missing.
* Shellcraft: Generate 6 syscall arguments for unknown functions
There are syscalls with 6 arguments like mmap and sendto which couldn't
be called with all 6 arguments set.
$ shellcraft -f asm mips.linux.mmap2 0 0x1000
'PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE | PROT_EXEC' 'MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS' -1 0
* Shellcraft: Fix typo in error message
The `syscalls` variable is only present in the generate.py, not the
generated template.
* Regenerate syscall templates
* MIPS shellcraft: Push last two syscall arguments to the stack
The mips.linux.syscall template was only handling 4 syscall arguments
and silently discarded the remaining ones. Push the arguments to the stack

remote_tar is a `bytes`, so the string interpolation resulted in the

* Fix libcdb.unstrip_libc tests
The old debugsymbols seem to have been pruned.
Update hashes to recent Ubuntu 22.04 libcs.
* Switch wget test to httpbingo.org
httpbin.org is very slow to respond.
Cherry-picked from 1998ff0920
* Handle `context.newline` correctly in `tube.interactive()`
The `context.newline` or `self.newline` variable isn't obeyed when typing in interactive mode. It is used when sending and receiving lines through `tube.sendline` though, causing a mismatch.
The receiving end of the `tube.interactive()` already has handling of newlines, but the sending side does not.
Example:
```python
from pwn import *
io = process('cat')
io.newline = b'\r\n'
io.sendline(b'auto')
io.interactive()
```
```
$ python testinteractive.py DEBUG
[x] Starting local process '/usr/bin/cat' argv=[b'cat']
[+] Starting local process '/usr/bin/cat' argv=[b'cat'] : pid 19060
[DEBUG] Sent 0x6 bytes:
b'auto\r\n'
[*] Switching to interactive mode
[DEBUG] Received 0x6 bytes:
b'auto\r\n'
auto
$ test
[DEBUG] Sent 0x5 bytes:
b'test\n'
[DEBUG] Received 0x5 bytes:
b'test\n'
test
```
The expected outcome would be to send `b'test\r\n'.
The same problem arises in non-term mode (`PWNLIB_NOTERM=1`), where stdin is read in binary mode causing the OS line seperators to come through. Correctly replacing them with the `context.newline` setting allows to use the interactive input on windows hosts as well, without constantly sending `\r\n`.
* Update CHANGELOG.md
* Only replace newlines in TTYs
Don't mess with the line endings when piping data through.
* Always send bytes immediately on receive
Only replace newlines in a tty if NOTERM wasn't explicitly set or
the `newline` setting was set.
* Don't return a newline after term.readline lines
The builtin `input()` doesn't include the newline.
* Remove bogous newline from CHANGELOG

The base image was missing the patchelf utility and the develop image
didn't update the apt cache. That caused building the image to fail when
pulling the outdated pwntools:base image from dockerhub.
The docker Makefile was using an invalid `-depth 1` argument which appear
to have been replaced by `-mindepth` and `-maxdepth` arguments recently.
The testing container is based on the develop image's Dockerfile which
copies new files into the container. Grab them from the appropriate folder.
pwndbg was installed twice when running the testing container for the
doctests.
* Support non-bytes argument to `packing._need_text()`
Allow to pass everything to `_need_text` and be sure to get a string back. This allows to log any object without the need for a format string by calling `repr` on it.
```py
# before:
log.info('%r', 5)
# now
log.info(5)

This is why CI should always be green.
Make it green, dear contributor, because the maintainers might merge
something without checking if it is green. Please.
The old API was a hack apparently, but it looks like GitHub Actions slowly gets less and less sketchy over time, and even goes as far as providing well-designed APIs.

* Fix tube.recvpred() timout argument
The `timeout` argument wasn't implemented correctly causing the function to hang instead of timing out.
* Update CHANGELOG.md
You have to call `listen.wait_for_connection()` before using the listen socket or you face raceconditions with the thread accepting the client connection.
Fixes#2100
* Allow tube.recvregex to return capture groups
When wanting to extract a value from the received data, one had to receive up until the value and the value itself in two steps without carving the data out of a large blob like this:
```
io.recvuntil(b'The address is: ')
address = int(io.recvline(), 16)
```
or use a regex twice:
```
pattern = re.compile(rb'The address is: (0x[0-9a-fA-F]+)')
data = io.recvregex(pattern)
address = int(pattern.search(data).group(1), 16)
```
This patch allows to pass `capture=True` to `tube.recvregex()` to return a `re.Match` object instead of the raw bytes.
```
addr = int(io.recvregex(rb'The address is: (0x[0-9a-fA-F]+)', capture=True).group(1), 16)
```
This allows for slicker data extraction!
Fixes#1962
* Update CHANGELOG.md

* Switch to federated debuginfod service
elfutils.org offers a federating proxy server which forwards the requests to all other debuginfod servers of the different linux distributions.

Use that instead by default to increase our successrate and potentially include new servers automatically once the distro sets one up.
* Use DEBUGINFOD_URLS envvar for server selection
The `DEBUGINFOD_URLS` environment variable is what you use for your normal debuginfod setup to tell it where to look for debug symbols.
Parse it as well and prepend it to the list of servers to try to allow for dynamic adjusting of the target servers.
* Fix for overwritten env when parsing core file
* warn_once message when dealing with overwritten pointer to env variable in core file
* Check for sha256 and sha256sum before trying openssl sha256 as "openssl sha256" doesn't return an error code in some old versions of openssl (OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007 at least) that doesn't support sha256.

This fixes a misbehaviour in environments where `XDG_CACHE_DIR` is not
set and `~/.cache` does not exist, e.g. in the docker image. We simply
attempt to create a temporary directory which will be registered with
`atexit` to be deleted on exit using `shutil.rmtree()`. A Python 3
approach for future would be to use a `TemporaryDirectory` instead which
would get cleaned up when the held object gets dropped out of the TLS
stack.
It is still possible for the `context.cache_dir` to be `None` if the
default directory exists but is not writable, which means some code
which uses this property is liable to blow up in such a circumstance.
When the last gadget has no arguments and the gadget before has stack
arguments, put the last gadget directly in its return address slot
(instead of a stack adjustment gadget).
* Fix CI after Groovy Gorilla went away for libc unstrip test
Build elfutils 0.181 from source since we can't use builds
from a newer ubuntu version anymore.
* Install python wheels in CI
* Fix ELF.libc_start_main_return with glibc 2.34
The actual call to `main` was split out into a new `__libc_start_call_main` function in glibc 2.34.
Update the heuristic to find main's return address by looking into all direct calls in `__libc_start_main` until the old heuristic matches.
The other direct calls could be e.g. `atexit` which doesn't call `exit`.
* Update CHANGELOG.md
* Fix CI after Groovy Gorilla went away for libc unstrip test

Ubuntu, why are you doing this to us?
I seriously mean that Ubuntu is the most silly distro.
Like, they probably updated their docker (or VM) images last week,
then Github got it, and we started getting failures.
They totally changed the behaviour of that 'apport' thing,
and it now drops core files in /var/lib/apport/coredump
instead of the current working directory.
Why is that even... ugh. Nevermind. It works now, at least.
But for how long?

Apparently it is us who used unicorn The Wrong Way,
e.g. trying to fetch instructions @ 0xdbdbdbdb,
which is both unaligned and high-address-space.
Unicorn just changed the exception to throw exception with the address
of an offending jump instruction, instead of the incorrect address.
Making the debugs actually work and changing address to 0x7c7c7c7c
solves the issue.

* mips: do not use $t0 temporary variable in dupio
dupio currently uses $t0 which is a temporary callee saved register.
The dup2 call is thus allowed to trash the register.
Use $v0 instead. $v0 is the return value register.
Either dup2 returns the provided $v0 (newfd) or -1 if it fails,
and therefore $v0 can be used safely here.

But it works now, at least locally
* [gdb] Fix broken doctests
* Update timeout to 10 seconds
* [corefile] Fix some broken tests, add several more
Notably, some were outright incorrect (corefile.libc for a statically-linked ELF)
Also fixed up some of the documentation to add more links, and added examples
of reading / writing / saving / reloading a corefile.
* [corefile] Some fixes for things but also some canaries for finding out what is happening on GHA
* [testing] More canaries to pull files down from GHA
* That was a bad idea
* Fix implementation bug in Corefile.exe
Basically we returned the segment that contained the entry point,
but need to return the first segment which shares the same filename
We also no longer handle the case where the mapping is anonymous
and set the name to AT_EXECFN. This probably breaks some QEMU stuff.
* Yep, the code used AT_EXECFN for the QEMU case
For an ARM corefile generated by qemu-user, the mappings are:
In [10]: print(core.maps)
10000000-10001000 r-xp 1000
ff7ef000-ff7f0000 ---p 1000
ff7f0000-ffff0000 rw-p 800000 [stack]
So we need to pull the name out of AT_EXECFN
* [core] Eagerly fetch self.exe so that the Mapping always has the right name
This means that Corefile.maps and Corefile.mappings will be updated for the single mapping
that contains the AT_ENTRY
* Attempt to debug getenv failure
* Fix some temporary edits and broken tests
* [ssh] Lets try and see if this works
* Remove unnecessary test and disable diagnostic logging
* [misc] Refactor kill_at_exit code for simplicity
Also catch the OSError from when the process has already died, which

This allows piping with color into tools like ansifilter, which take
ANSI-escape-coded colorized text and emits data in other formats,
notably HTML.
This is useful for writing blog posts with PWNLIB_DEBUG=1 to display
hex-dumped data written to stdout that would not normally be colorized.
Currently this ONLY works for the environment variable PWNLIB_COLOR,
and does not make use of pwnlib.args due to cyclic imports.
* Remove likely-unused Dockerfiles, which are not being supported in the future anyway
This leaves base, stable, beta, and dev as the only Dockerfile images
Simplify extra/Docker so that Pwntools is already checked out, and build precedence works
* Base image always gets built first
* Branch-tracking Dockerfiles now require base to be built
* Use locally-checked-out-repo instead of e.g. git+https://github.com/Gallopsled/pwntools@beta
* Install tested with both Python2 and Python3

* run_in_new_terminal: Prefer tmux/screen over TERM_PROGRAM and x-terminal-emulator.
* run_in_new_terminal: Kill running commands when the main process exits.
Currently, when a gdb window is opened via gdb.debug(), terminating the
main pwntools process leaves the gdb window/process around. It is
inconvenient to have to close these leftover gdb windows when iterating
on an exploit.
Add a kill_at_exit parameter to run_in_new_terminal() which attempts to
terminate the command at main process exit.
This only works for terminals which do not daemonize, or for tmux, which
supports returning the command's PID.
This change also removes the special case for closing
stdin/stdout/stderr on Mac OS X, as the problem no longer reproduces
under tmux 2.8.

* Keep ROP cache in user's home like regular cache
I don't have statistics numbers on which would be more likely to be writable, an user's home directory or the OS's temp directory, but seems to me it'd make sense to try and write all caches to the same location.
Optimally this would be easily configurable to allow adjusting to different set-ups, obviously.

All three instructions: `int 0x80`, `sysenter`, and `syscall` require
different stack frames and registers to pass arguments, but
`ROP._srop_call` uses them interchangeably.
This fix limits syscall instruction lists to gadgets that work.

$ echo $PATH | while read -r -d: directory; do
> echo "$directory/su";
> done
/sbin/su
/vendor/bin/su
/system/sbin/su
/system/bin/su
$ (IFS=:

* Update CHANGELOG
Turns out that python 2 does not raise correct socket.timeout, but
SSLError instead. With no errno. Just a message that might be

**THIS IS NOT THE ONLY TIME PYTHON 2 IS CAUSING PROBLEMS.**
Time to stop using it, dear exploit developers. It is dead now.
But here you are: the simple fix.

We switch to the SSLContext.wrap_socket API because ssl.wrap_socket is
deprecated and does not support SNI.
Unfortunately, SSLContext.wrap_socket dropped some of the parameters
that are supported by ssl.wrap_socket. These parameters have been moved
to the SSLContext API and can now be used by passing a custom SSLContext
to the ssl_context parameter of `remote`.

If passed an empty dictionary defining the environment variables, the process invoked by gdb.debug() has environment variable 'PWD' set to the directory containing the executable. This behaviour is not observered when NOPTRACE is enabled: the program runs without any environment variables set. Similarly, if an empty environment variable dictionary is passed to process(), it appears to also run under a truly empty environment. Additionally, attempts to overwrite the "PWD" environment variable with a dictionary entry are not successful under gdb.debug().
This fix brings the gdb.debug() treatment of environment variables in line with and process() and gdb.debug() with NOPTRACE enabled.
It allows both empty environments, and overwriting of the 'PWD' environment variable.
Both Debian and Ubuntu provide a `binutils-avr` package, which contains
an assembler for AVR as `avr-as`. However, pwntools was looking for
something with `linux` in the name, such as `avr-linux-gnu-as`. Of course,
such a target triplet is nonsense, Linux does not run on AVRs
(apart from that one hack that actually emulated some other CPU which
therefore doesn't count).
* Disable corefile tests for Github Actions
* Disable the UI tests, as theyre broken
* Install gdbserver
* Rename step
* Remove SIGALARM to see if it fixes tests
* Set PWNLIB_NOTERM for command-line runs
`ELF.functions` wasn't updated after the binary base address was changed using `ELF.address` like `ELF.symbols` is. The documentation mentions `ELF.functions` getting updated as well, the update was missing though.
Closes#1512

* Update Corefile warnings and replace asserts with normal checks
This means that most of the Corefile will still work, even if
we encounter issues while parsing data from the stack.
* Update pwnlib/elf/corefile.py
* Add missing return statement

Detect if pwntools is running in a Windows Subsystem for Linux "VM" and set the terminal to open a new `cmd.exe` window on the host.
This replaces the need to add `context.terminal = ['cmd.exe', '/c', 'start', 'ubuntu', 'run']` to every script.
Debugging using `gdb.attach` under WSL with gdb in a new window out of the box!
This is a WONTFIX, but default gcc on ubuntu compiles .bss (and other RW
segments) so far away from .text that ret2dlresolve mathematically
just has to segfault unless .text and .rodata contain crafted structures
already.
Compiling and working fine on gentoo, though. Hope this proves useful.
Also closes#1448 by the way, it was really annoying.
Closes#1476.
* Enable text colors in Windows console
Consoles on Windows 10 support ANSI escape sequences including color codes.
Emulate unix curses `tigetstr` terminal capabilities by hardcoding the given escape sequences for used curses capabilities.
ANSI escape sequences have to be enabled using `kernel32.SetConsoleMode(hndl, ENABLE_VIRTUAL_TERMINAL_PROCESSING)` for the current console.
* Use object identity operator
* Import ABC from collections.abc for Python 3.
* Fix deprecation warnings due to invalid escape sequences.
* Use raw strings instead of escaping individually.
Previously, the rop._srop_call function would append the args without checking whether their value would work
directly in a register. It now uses AppendedArgument to determine whether the value is pushed to the end of
the ROP chain.
* Update proc.py
reversed([p.pid for p in processes]) only return a iter.
if use gdb.attach('some process name') will cause error like :
File "/home/tsj/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pwnlib/gdb.py", line 657, in attach
pid = pids[0]
TypeError: 'listreverseiterator' object has no attribute '__getitem__'
In this case ,it treat 'pids' as a list,so here should return a list as well
* Apply suggestions from code review

if the value returned from the leak function is a str, it converts it to a bytearray for pytohn3 compatibility. Assuming a string is returned is flaky and likely wrong.
removed the double quotes around the temp filename of the gdbscript as this broke the gdbscript functionality.
The doublequotes would be considered part of the filename and it would fail to read the file..
Tested this fix on Kali.
* The SSH tube now keeps the environment variables of processes it creates in order.
The way of achieving that is through passing the env to the script as a list of tuples,
since Python3's dictionaries are ordered by default, or you can use `OrderedDict`,
the result would be that the spawned process on the remote machine will keep the environment variables in order.
This is very important to exploits that are based on the stack's order and especially the environment variables.
For instance, a common challenge is comparing argc == 0, and afterwards accessing the argv array, as an out-of-bounds array.
The shellcode needs to be at a certain index consistently and cannot rely on the stack moving around.
* Relocated the code.
* Try GitHub actions instead of Travis CI.
This is just a proof-of-concept until we can
have it the clean way it should be done.
More commits will likely follow.
* Travis CI: Use flake8 to detect syntax errors (#1385)
* Travis CI: Use flake8 to detect syntax errors
Repeat #1305 on the Python 3 branch. Also, remove the hardcoding of default values for dist and Py2.
https://flake8.pycqa.org/en/latest/user/error-codes.html
On the flake8 test selection, this PR does _not_ focus on "_style violations_" (the majority of flake8 error codes that [__psf/black__](https://github.com/psf/black) can autocorrect). Instead these tests are focus on runtime safety and correctness:
* E9 tests are about Python syntax errors usually raised because flake8 can not build an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST). Often these issues are a sign of unused code or code that has not been ported to Python 3. These would be compile-time errors in a compiled language but in a dynamic language like Python they result in the script halting/crashing on the user.
* F63 tests are usually about the confusion between identity and equality in Python. Use ==/!= to compare str, bytes, and int literals is the classic case. These are areas where __a == b__ is True but __a is b__ is False (or vice versa). Python >= 3.8 will raise SyntaxWarnings on these instances.
* F7 tests logic errors and syntax errors in type hints
* F82 tests are almost always _undefined names_ which are usually a sign of a typo, missing imports, or code that has not been ported to Python 3. These also would be compile-time errors in a compiled language but in Python a __NameError__ is raised which will halt/crash the script on the user.
* Fail fast, exclude generated source files
* --select=E9,F63,F7
* 2to3 -f print -wn examples
* No more <> in python 3.
* Use ==/!= to compare str, bytes, and int literals (#1386)
Identity is not the same thing as equality in Python so use ==/!= to compare str, bytes, and int literals. In Python >= 3.8, these instances will raise _SyntaxWarnings_ so it is best to fix them now. https://docs.python.org/3.8/whatsnew/3.8.html#porting-to-python-3-8

* Allow pwntools to load on Windows
Fixes loading of pwntools on Windows. `from pwn import *` works.
It allows to use some operating system agnostic features of pwntools out of the box.
This is inspired by #996.
Some features fail or even crash (local processes, gdb, assemble/disassemble)
and console colors are still not displayed correctly, but those can be addressed separately.
* Use `os.devnull` instead of manual selection
* Add heuristic to find return address into __libc_start_main
Find the return address from main into __libc_start_main in a libc shared binary. Mimic's niklasb's heuristic in libc-database.
* Add support for different `call` instructions
* Introduce tests for pwnlib.ui
This architecture can be changed later, but I'm quite proud
of how it's done currently.
* Try to debug CI
* Ugly hack to get results back
* Let's just keep it half-broken
Currently, python 3 installed libraries
and sphinx doctree cache are not retained across builds.
This PR addresses this issue, hopefully resulting in a major speedup.

* Updates to requirements.txt.
Removed the < 1.8.0 requirement for sphinx. It appeared no longer
necessary.
Alphabetized the listing for easier searching.
Moved the requirements file under the docker folder. Docker does not
like relative paths to parent directories due to security restrictions.
* Updated Dockerfile to use Python3.
* Fixes to srop test errors.
Moving the imports to the beginning of the file resolved the issue.
The following errors were popping up during testing within Docker:

pwnlib.shellcraft installs its custom import finder (LazyImporter) into

According to PEP 302, finder is expected to have prototype
finder.find_module(fullname, path=None)
Note that the second argument is optional. pwnlib's LazyImporter has second
argument required, which leads to compatibility problems, surfacing

coredumpctl is a tool that can be used to retrieve and process
core dumps and metadata which were saved by systemd-coredump(8).
systemd-coredump works by setting a piped core pattern. For example:
$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
|/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %P %u %g %s %t %c %h %e
This commit detects `systemd-coredump` in the pattern and then uses
`coredumpctl`, which is the CLI utility for reading the coredumps.
`coredumpctl` is instructed to write the coredump to a file. The
coredump is specified using the process ID and the basename of the
executable.
This commit also updates some doc strings to fix them and make them
more useful.
This fixes#1177, #1178
Ubuntu 16.04 finally includes `binutils-mips-linux-gnu`,
which is required. So there is no need to download
packages manually anymore. This can help supporting
python 3.

* Add sysroot= argument to gdb.debug, expose via 'pwn debug'
Also sets a sane default sysroot for Android debugging
* Add missing newline for "set deatch-on-fork off"
Introduced in e89a9b66ac
* Add support for extracting Android boot.img
* Fix incorrect variable in 'pwn debug'

When one passes a `LD_PRELOAD` which cannot be preloaded the `process_created` string might end up looking like this:
```
"ERROR: ld.so: object '/bin/bash' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot dynamically load executable): ignored.\n"
```
When we end up in such situation, pwndbg shown unintuitive error:
```

As @bennofs noticed, our detection logic was incorrect:
"This is not a good test if I understand the issue correctly.
From my tests, it seems that fault_addr was only null before this patch if it
would've been >= 2**47.
This is because on 64 bit, that's where kernel memory is mapped so we get
"protection fault" instead of "segfault".
A protection fault does not have the same siginfo as a normal segfault:
si_code will be SI_KERNEL = 0x80 and there won't be a fault_addr
(see http://elixir.free-electrons.com/linux/v4.14-rc8/source/kernel/signal.c#L1052)"
* Handle debugging under Android better with 'pwn debug'
Previously, when using --process or --pid, we would terminate the gdbserver instance
when pwntools exited. Now we wait for the user to tell us to exit.
* Handle launching Android processes by filename
* Use the --multi option with gdbserver; disable detach-on-fork
* Intentionally break doctest to make sure its running
* Revert "Intentionally break doctest to make sure its running"
This reverts commit 00578ad177.
* Copy env in process._validate using .copy method to keep the order in case of OrderedDict
* Use supplied env object to preserve order in case of OrderedDict
* Fix corefile environment variables and speed up ELF.string()
* Even more doctests
* Fix doctest arch
* No longer split on = since it isn't necessary
* Fix arch again
* Delete intermediate corefiles
* Do not flag for extended testing when the commit SHA is what matches
* Add support for finding QEMU's LD_PREFIX
* Refactor pwnlib.qemu and add official documentation
* Add more documentation, support for sysroot
* More docs, binfmt info
* Fix variable name overload
* Fix missed refactor
* Check for empty/null env
* Add qemu.rst to index
* Add cyclic default args to context
Specifically, this adds context.cyclic_alphabet and context.cyclic_size
This helps cut down on writing "n=8" all the time for users who use 8-byte
subsequences on 64-bit architectures.
Exposing the default alphabet means that users can avoid "bad bytes" in
cyclic patterns which are generated by pwntools internally (e.g. ROP padding)
Some pwnlib.util.packing docstrings were changed to clarify that word_size is
in bits.
The doctests in pwnlib.util.cyclic were updated and extended to have more
and better doctests, as well as better exaples.
* Add an example showing an alphabet with NUL bytes
This is important because old code would use pack(..., "all") when an integer
value was provided, instead of using the correct width.
* Overhaul ROP.setRegisters to support more complex cases needed by AMD64
Additionally, have a separate cache for ROPs composed of multiple ELF files
* Better presentation for stack padding slots
* Remove unnecessary stack adjustment on amd64
For amd64, it is possible that len(stackArguments) == 0.
* Add a doctest for amd64 register dependency stuff
* More i386 adjust optimizations
* Use nextGadgetAddr as the adjust value
* Always use padding for the last "ret" adjustment
* Better dump display
* Update doctests for new ROP dump() enhancements
* Add badchars support for ROP gadgets
* More doctest fixes, also ensure ROP.search does not return gadgets ending in e.g. int 0x80
* Prevent Sphinx from dumping all level=INFO logging output to stdout.
See Gallopsled/pwntools#1036 for more information.
* Filter out Paramiko logs too, apply filter to all root handlers during testing
* Remove unused import
(cherry picked from commit 54c47b3daa)
Technically this introduces issues with e.g. 'unhex ffdf | python foo.py' if
foo.py uses .interactive(). However, that was already broken for other reasons.
Fixes#1004
(cherry picked from commit ebbe917713)
* Slightly enhance template and advertise for the feature itself in scripts
Add single-dash to the "very good" characters in shell escaping, to avoid
the need to single-quote things like --host and --port.
* Add --quiet option for pwn template, move gdbscript down a bit
* Slightly better docs for 'pwn template'
* Add checksec information directly to 'pwn template' output
* Prevent Sphinx from dumping all level=INFO logging output to stdout.
See Gallopsled/pwntools#1036 for more information.
* Filter out Paramiko logs too, apply filter to all root handlers during testing

* DynELF: trust ELF base address
* Bug fixes for DynELF:
* Fixed lookup when not using libcdb
* Fixed _find_linkmap returning 0 instead of None when linkmap doesn't
exist
* Fixed _lookup_build_id crashing if linkmap cannot be found
* Misc cleanup
* Changes based on feedback
Technically this introduces issues with e.g. 'unhex ffdf | python foo.py' if

* Force use of Ubuntu 12 builds on Travis CI until we can migrate to 14
* Fix Travis Dockerfile
* Add bash command logging to Travis scripts, since Travis removed its own logging
* curl should follow redirects when grabbing Ubuntu packages
* Update Travis cache directories to newer version of Python, as seen in Travis logs
* Use ::1 instead of ip6-localhost since Travis 12.04 changes broke it
* fix typo in comment
* new config option: context.gdbinit
This allows setting the default gdbinit for GDB, which is helpful when you want
to enable some GDB extension only when using pwntools and not by default.

When reporting an issue, be sure that you are running the latest released version of pwntools (`pip install --upgrade pwntools`).
## Debug Output
Having the extra debug output really helps us, and might help you diagnose the problem yourself.
When submitting an issue that has output from Pwntools, make sure to run your script as shown below, to enable the extra debugging data.
```sh
$ python exploit.py DEBUG LOG_FILE=log.txt
```
You should see `[DEBUG]` statements that show what's happening behind the scenes:
```
[+] Starting local process '/bin/sh' argv=['sh'] : pid 16823
[DEBUG] Sent 0x7 bytes:
'whoami\n'
[DEBUG] Sent 0x5 bytes:
'exit\n'
[+] Receiving all data: Done (11B)
[DEBUG] Received 0xb bytes:
'crashheap\n'
[*] Process '/bin/sh' stopped with exit code 0 (pid 16823)
```
## Verify on Ubuntu
If possible, please verify that your issue occurs on 64-bit Ubuntu 22.04. We provide a Dockerfile based on Ubuntu 22.04 via `docker.io` to make this super simple, no VM required!
Thanks for using Pwntools! If you have a question, here are some tips that will make it easier for us to help you.
## Check the Documentation
Pwntools has REALLY extensive documentation. Please check there first! https://docs.pwntools.com
## Debug Output
If you're having an issue with an exploit, run your script with full debugging output, i.e. `python exploit.py DEBUG`. This may help you to see what's happening under the hood, and the debug output will help to diagnose any issues you're encountering.

Sometimes it's annoying to set up Pwntools on your workstation, and you want something that Just Works (TM).
[Docker](https://www.docker.com/) is here to the rescue! Using Docker means that you get a nice, standardized Linux environment and don't need to worry about pip or installing dependencies.
## Quick Start
First, install Docker for your OS, which you can find on their [Getting Started](https://www.docker.com/get-started) page.
Next, download and run the Pwntools stable docker image.
```sh
$ docker run -it pwntools/pwntools:stable
```
## Recommended Settings
In order to get the most from your docker image, we need to enable debugging of processes (`--privileged`) and expose the network ports from the guest to the host (`--net=host`).
```sh
$ docker run -it \
--privileged \
--net=host \
--hostname localhost \
--ulimit core=-1:-1 \
pwntools/pwntools:stable
```
## Sharing a Folder
It's really nice to be able to use your preferred native editor, and have the changes show up live inside your Docker image. This is easy to add, thanks to Docker's bind mounts (`--mount type=bind`).
With the command below, your `~/exploits` directory will magically show up inside the Docker image at `/home/pwntools/exploits` so that you can easily run them (from Docker) and edit them (from outside Docker).
If you're a Windows user `$HOME` doesn't exist in the same way as on Linux, instead it is `%UserProfile%`. The command from above would look like this, assuming your editor is Visual Studio Code and you have code.exe in your `%PATH%`.

The aim of pwntools is exploiting software vulnerabilities, which is an unusual position, but it nevertheless can have its own security issues.
Especially that an attacker (=re-victim) is usually not prepared to be attacked back (by the re-attacker).
The first question to ask yourself is: is this an actual vulnerability?
- can it be triggered by a re-attacker (malicious honeypot pretending to be a vulnerable service)?
- does it impact the attacker (=re-victim)?
- is it serious?
* *availability: medium* means *at least* exhausting RAM or disk space of the attacker (=re-victim)
* *confidentiality: medium* means *at least* reading the filesystem of the attacker (=re-victim)
* *integrity: medium* means *at least* performing uncontrolled actions or data corruption on behalf of the attacker (=re-victim)
* if crucial for some sophisticated exploit chain, it is always serious
*`safe_eval` bypasses **are** serious.
* an example of what was **kind of** serious: [#1732](https://github.com/Gallopsled/pwntools/pull/1732)
- can it be fixed without compromising on Pwntools' usability?
If at least one of the answers is no, then this is NOT a vulnerability, so just file a bug report or feature request, without the weird confidential disclosure dance.
Just e-mail the maintainers. Arusekk is the one that is currently the most excited to fix vulnerabilities.
Or create a CTF task! Prove a point the good old hacker way!
