| 1. | buffer overflow | ||
|
A type of exploitation in programming in which a set buffer is created in a program and a user has the advantage of overflowing that buffers set limit to allow the user to execute arbitrary code by overwriting a memory block, held for the buffer. #include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv) { buffer300; //set buffer to store 300 bytes if(argc<=2) { printf("usage: %s <data to put in buffer>", argv0); }else{ memset(buffer, argv1); //add 2nd argument (the data) into the buffer printf("%s",buffer); //print data that resides in the buffer } if more than 300 bytes are put into the buffer, it will cause a segmentation fault causing a buffer overflow. |
