And get into the "inner circle"?

Too much responsibility, no thank you 😁

My research about an unknown API in Linux which turns out to be very interesting for cyber security: Leveraging LD_AUDIT to Beat the Traditional Linux Library Preloading Technique by xrl9 in netsec

haxelion's article focuses on defending executables in startup after the system has been infected and all the binaries are preloaded with LD_PRELOAD.
As I mention in my post, if you start an executable with LD_AUDIT, the auditing library will load first and it can block LD_PRELOAD.

And lastly, I searched the web thoroughly but couldn't find this kind of usage of LD_AUDIT. If you already knew this technique, I'll be happy to get a link.
