Not to come come off too snarky, but then shouldn't the professors of universities get fired as well for teaching the programmers defensive programming. In order to beat the crackers, you must think...

I meant to write "Julie, you suck" in quotations so that the parser read it all as one string and not different ones. Oops.

As for assembly I was able to figure out and write some shellcode that...

Well assuming we have some trivial program:


void foo(char* name)
{
char buffer[10];
sprintf(buffer, "Dear %s ", name);
printf("this is the end of foo(). Goodbye. \n");
}

I wasn't aware there were several 'kinds' of buffer overflows. I was given a small program that takes a name and stores it in a small array. I already got it to seg fault but my main concern was...

I've tried those before and still it never works. The input still regards it as user input meant to be "\x###". I tried using the redirection to see if that changed anything, but alas that failed me...

It's not my program to edit. I wanted to purposely bypass input as string to hex in order to see if I could get a buffer overflow and overwrite the return address.

This being said it's strictly...

Hello fellow programmers,
Let's say I wrote a small program that took user input from argv[1]. Is there any way for the user to input some "\x##" hex line and the input to recognize it as actual hex...

Hey C Boarders,
I'm coding a 'simplistic' shell environment and I'm currently implementing background execution. I know that after you have successfully fork()ed that in order to have background...
