FAQ

  1. Why do I not get the familar "Hostile Engaged" when trying to be hostile to certain binaries?

    This is because LD_PRELOAD will not work on binaries that do not have the same set-user-ID/set-group-ID as the libarary. This is from the documentation of LD_PRELOAD:

    A whitespace-separated list of additional, user-specified, ELF shared libraries to be loaded before all others. This can be used to selectively override functions in other shared libraries. For set-user-ID/set-group-ID ELF binaries, only libraries in the standard search directories that are also set-user-ID will be loaded.
