For those interested, NGSS has just published a paper describing how to defeat the mechanism built into Windows 2003 Server to prevent exploitation of stack based buffer overflow vulnerabilities. previous work done in this area presented methods that only worked in highly specific scenarios - the new methods presented in this paper are generic. The paper can be downloaded from http://www.nextgenss.com/papers/defeating-w2k3-stack-protection.pdf . Cheers, David Litchfield NGSSoftware Ltd |
