Gray Hat Python
Python is the high-level language of choice for hacking, vulnerability discovery, and security research. Gray Hat Python, the first Python book written for advanced security analysts, explains the intricacies of using Python to assist in a range of security analysis tasks. Readers learn how to design and program their own debuggers, create powerful fuzzers, utilize open source libraries to automate tedious tasks, and interface with commercial and non-commercial security tools. Gray Hat Python covers everything from the nuts and bolts of how to use the language for basic code and DLL injection to using Python to analyze binaries and disassemble software. It also discusses a variety of open source Python tools (such as Py Dbg, PaiMei, Py Emu, Sulley, and Immunity Debugger) and how to extend them. Fundamentally a security book, Gray Hat Python reveals just how superior the Python language is when it comes to hacking, reverse engineering, malware analysis and software testing.
