Python has reached a defacto standard in exploit development lifecycles and most of the proof of concept tools you’ll find out there are written in Python (besides the metasploit framework, which is written in Ruby). Python allows to write scripts handling with remote services, fiddling with binary data and interacting with C libraries (or Java in case of Jython/.Net in IronPython) in a fast and easy way. The huge standard library with it’s “battery included” principle removes some of the dependency hell known from other frameworks/languages. I want to share some of my python coding experiences with you, and maybe this could give some helpful tips for your future work, to make the world a bit safer đ (PS: most of the examples are written in Python 3.x or compatible to both Python branches).
