A huge chunk of my personal notes since I started playing CTFs and working as a red teamer. These are living documents and I updated or add to them relatively often.

[!IMPORTANT] Please note that these documents are only provided for legal purposes. Please do not use the content for illigal actions.

If you like the project, give it a ⭐ or share it on various platforms. My goal is to create and to gather resources for people to help them on their career.

[!NOTE] As always, it is pretty hard to point out every source for different tools or payloads. If I used your payload anywhere in my notes and you wanted to be mentioned, feel free to reach out to me on X — or preferably Bluesky — and I will add you asap.

Thank you for reading.
