I'm new to the cyber world and have a few questions about how this works under the hood since my exposure to memory management is really minimal. Why did we have to mess with this shellcode within the injector (dlinject.py) rather than just somehow identifying the PID of the target and loading the injected code directly? Is it not possible via some simply python call to perform the injection, and is that why we're playing with the x86?

Also, would this work on systems with ASLR?

Could malicious code be obfuscated, transformed, and then subsequently injected into a process like explorer with this dlinject.py? What are our limitations here?
