| 12 | +## Description |
| 13 | +> Harness the power of FILE structs to arbitrarily read data. |
| 14 | +
|
| 15 | +## Write-up |
| 16 | +**Goal:** using an arbitrary write / memory-write primitive to corrupt a `FILE` (`_IO_FILE`) stream structure so that when the program performs a write the stream emits the flag value we placed. |
| 17 | +- Place `"FLAG{...}"` in memory at `flag_addr`. |
| 18 | +- Overwrite `_IO_write_base = flag_addr`, `_IO_write_ptr = flag_addr`, `_IO_write_end = flag_addr + strlen`. |
| 19 | +- Set `_IO_read_end = _IO_write_base` (if necessary) and `_flags` to a value that makes the write path accept the buffer. |
| 20 | +- Trigger `fflush()` / any print that writes via that `FILE` object. |
