BinEx Bot

This is a Telegram bot for the "Binary Exploitation" lab course at TUM (Technical University of Munich) that sends you a message whenever the pwning leaderboard changes. I wrote it in 2018 when I did the lab course.

To use the bot visit https://telegram.me/binex_bot and send it any message. It will acknowledge your existence with a "Hello" and send you updates when new pwns happen.

The bot is hosted for free on Heroku and uses Google Docs as a free mini-database.
