Remote Code Execution With Buffer Overflow In C: Stack-frames, Return Addresses and Modern Defenses
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1mnfutx/remote_code_execution_with_buffer_overflow_in_c/
<!-- SC_OFF -->When people said 'buffer overflows can be used to execute arbitrary code' in blogs/videos, I wondered how that is possible as for me, a buffer was just a reserved array of bytes in the program's memory meant for 'storage' and not 'execution'. On diving deeper, I was fascinated how return addresses are modified to execute code stored in the buffer and also the security measures undertaken by operating systems and compilers to avoid such attacks. I am not a cybersecurity expert (I'm into ML and Android dev), but the breadth of low-level concepts covered while researching the topic, motivated me to combine all my findings/ideas in a blogpost. The blogpost also describes the process of developing a payload that when given to a vulnerable program can cause a RCE.
