SKILL: Binary Protection Bypass — Expert Attack Playbook

AI LOAD INSTRUCTION: Expert binary protection identification and bypass techniques. Covers ASLR, PIE, NX, RELRO, canary, FORTIFY_SOURCE, stack clash, CET shadow stack, and ARM MTE. Each protection is paired with its bypass methods and required primitives. Distilled from ctf-wiki mitigation sections and real-world exploitation. Base models often confuse which protections block which attacks and miss the combinatorial effect of multiple protections.
