What I want to learn is shell coding, I have some background in assembler from my time working with mainframes. Can anyone think of anything I should add? Suggestions on the best way to start? I have a couple of books that I'm using as a reference.
Have a look at Metasploit - there's loads of very well written shellcode goodness in there. Pick out a few of the vulnerabilities it exploits, install the vulnerable software and learn how the attack tool works. Try out the different shellcode payloads and get some experience in choosing the right one.
