okrager

Overview

The "okrager" console application allows you to generate an exploitable Okage: Shadow King game save which will leverage a stack buffer-overflow vulnerability within the player's name in the save file. This results in the code execution of the supplied PS2 ELF file when you select "RESTORE GAME" within the Okage: Shadow King game.

The application requires you to pass an existing input memory card file (.ps2/.card). Next, it injects the staging shellcode and the supplied PS2 ELF then saves the game save as a new output file (.ps2/.card).

For additional information on the inner working of this application, see the assosicated blog post "mast1c0re: Part 2 - Arbitrary PS2 code execution".

Installation

Use the following command to install the okrager package with pip:

python -m pip install okrager

Make sure the local bin path is in your path. If not, add it to ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc:

export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
