This talk describes Pwndbg, a plugin for GDB written in Python that helps with reverse engineering and binary exploitation of ELF binaries. It shows Pwndbg features such as enhanced context display, telescope (automatic dereferencing of potential pointers), navigation helpers (such as "break at next syscall/ret/jump"), better display of memory maps through the vmmap command, unicorn emulation feature (to show branches that will be taken), Windbg aliases, search memory command, and others.
