Rubeus, for example, fingerprinted the cpuid output of the target infrastructure and introduced divergent behavior based on that cpuid. I don't know if it made the final cut of the video (still watching it now!) but we did find teams biting on their honeypot on multiple occasions. A team would be successfully exploit a vulnerability, Rubeus would replace the service with one similar except adding a fake vuln only reachable with a non CGC infrastructure cpuid and the team would now target that vulnerability, losing out on the points they were getting before and netting rubeus some free defense points when they were still vulnerable. </div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Aug 17, 2017 at 3:59 PM, dave aitel <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:dave@immunityinc.com" target="_blank">dave@immunityinc.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<p>Ah, it's there for sure, although you're not sure which bug they
exploited. Interesting to draw some corrolations. For example
DeepRed (Raytheon) got two weird heap overflows exploited, and
then a lot of stack overflows...did that heap overflow come from a
replay of someone else's bug? Is that a thing?<br>

<p>Hmm. Lots of interesting information here, although somewhat hard
to dig through I guess? <br><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">

<pre>Dave,
You may find some of what you want here: <a class="m_2641109338170938652moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.lungetech.com/cgc-corpus/cfe/" target="_blank">http://www.lungetech.com/cgc-<wbr>corpus/cfe/</a>
I have all the raw data from the event including the answers to some of your questions below. If I can format then in some useful manner I will post some of those answers.

<pre>So I wanted to type up some notes on the CGC Wrapup <a class="m_2641109338170938652moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYYZjTx92KU" target="_blank"><https://www.youtube.com/<wbr>watch?v=SYYZjTx92KU></a> video, which was excellent. I mean, a part of what you want to do, while you watch it, is strip out all the parts of the thing that are about "playing the game". I know Jordan loves CTFs as some sort of e-sport and also there's a whole community who for whatever reason plays CTFs instead of playing corewars on helpless Chinese networks like of yore, but that stuff is 100% distraction when it comes to the CGC.
As you can see, the tiny red lines on the right are supposed to be some combination of "could hack and could secure a service". I can't find anywhere something that has a simple spreadsheet of which samples <a class="m_2641109338170938652moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://www.lungetech.com/cgc-corpus/challenges/NRFIN_00080/" target="_blank"><http://www.lungetech.com/cgc-<wbr>corpus/challenges/NRFIN_00080/<wbr>></a> (and even which vulns in which samples) were able to be attacked by which teams. So much of the game was weighted towards performance characteristics that it's hard to determine the information you really need from the scores, although the video goes over some anecdotal examples where RUBEUS and MECHAPHISH were able to attack particular historically interesting programs. It's telling that Mayhem won despite being basically off for half the contest. ;)
Does anyone have better data on this?

P.S. Holy cow the visualizations on program execution are next gen! Worth a close watch just to see them.
