Understand assembly code and modify exe files to add new functionality using x64dbg
InstructorPaul Chin, PhDInstruction covers specific techniques for altering program behavior, including utilizing code caves and hollowing out executable files.
The approach demonstrates how register values and memory locations change during instruction execution using x64dbg.

This image displays the x64dbg debugger interface showing assembly instructions and register values, featuring a prominent overlay titled 'How to hollow out an exe file'.
This presentation slide illustrates WHILE loops by comparing high-level pseudocode logic with its direct implementation in low-level assembly language instructions.
This slide illustrates the behavior of the CMP instruction in assembly language, showing how the carry flag is determined by comparing values in registers eax and ebx.
This slide explains the MOVSX instruction in assembly language, demonstrating how the most significant bit of an operand is replicated to fill higher-order bits during signed extension.
