A binary exploitation course from RPI's RPISEC group covering low-level systems concepts and how to write exploits against compiled programs. The course materials are hosted on the RPISEC site for the spring 2015 offering.

Commenters recommend it as a practical step up from beginner exploitation puzzles toward more realistic binary exploitation, with one calling it a highly recommended path into low-level systems and exploit writing.

    Microcorruption was a blast. If you want to learn slightly more realistic binary exploitation, I recommend RPI's MBE course[1]
