Exploitation 101: Stacks, NX/DEP, ASLR and ROP!
- David Hoelzer
- Thursday, December 14th, 7:15pm - 9:15pm
In this two-hour talk we will begin with basic stack overflows and then introduce the various protections one at a time... and demonstrate how they are defeated! The talk will cover stack overflows, bypassing DEP/NX (non-executable stacks), defeating ASLR, and defeating code signing with ROP. While the talk covers technical topics, even those with less of a technical background will walk away with an appreciation of just how easy exploit development actually is!
