Generally discussed herein are systems, apparatuses, and methods for patching a binary file using a nested executable. In one or more embodiments, a system can include a memory including a nested binary file stored thereon, the nested binary file including a child executable and a parent executable, the child executable configured as a payload of the parent executable, the parent executable including instructions that, when executed by an intermediate device, cause the intermediate device to identify a value of a variable of the child executable, determine a memory location on the target device corresponding to the variable, write the value of the variable to the child executable, and throw the child executable to the target device after writing the value of the variable to the determined memory location, and communications circuitry configured to provide the nested binary file to the intermediate device.
