In this challenge, we are showing how we can leak libc base address and overwrite __malloc_hook using null byte poisoning aka off-by-one overflow aka null byte overflow vulnerability. Basically, by clearing PREV_IN_USE bit in a chunk, we can cause two chunks consolidate and the chunk between them being forgotten.

This is a good challenge for understanding how to exploit x86_64 binaries with Full RELRO, Canary, NX, PIE, and ASLR enabled.
