+Goal: Breaking KASLR through TLB-based side channel attack
+Status: Proposal draft and setting up machine
+Progress:
+	- Messed up the machine configuration a bit and wasted time there (thanks Aleksandar for helping me out)
+		- glanced over need for google kernelCTF kernel
+		TODO: check if module rwx can be used because that would be much easier and commonly enabled
+		- messed up some things in grub -> using VM now because that caused long recovery times (had to sync up with aleksandar)
+	- Wrote proposal draft
+Stuck on: Not really stuck but getting the kernel and options right is taking more time than expected.
