Pwntools is a CTF framework and exploit development library. Written in Python, it is designed for rapid prototyping and development, and intended to make exploit writing as simple as possible.

```python
from pwn import *
context(arch = 'i386', os = 'linux')

r = remote('exploitme.example.com', 31337)
# EXPLOIT CODE GOES HERE
r.send(asm(shellcraft.sh()))
r.interactive()
```

# Documentation

Our documentation is available at [docs.pwntools.com](https://docs.pwntools.com/)

A series of tutorials is also [available online](https://github.com/Gallopsled/pwntools-tutorial#readme)

To get you started, we've provided some example solutions for past CTF challenges in our [write-ups repository](https://github.com/Gallopsled/pwntools-write-ups).

# Installation

Pwntools is best supported on 64-bit Ubuntu LTS releases (14.04, 16.04, 18.04, and 20.04).  Most functionality should work on any Posix-like distribution (Debian, Arch, FreeBSD, OSX, etc.).  

Python3 is suggested, but Pwntools still works with Python 2.7.  Most of the functionality of pwntools is self-contained and Python-only.  You should be able to get running quickly with

```sh
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3 python3-pip python3-dev git libssl-dev libffi-dev build-essential
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pwntools
```


However, some of the features (assembling/disassembling foreign architectures) require non-Python dependencies.  For more information, see the [complete installation instructions here](https://docs.pwntools.com/en/stable/install.html).
