Re: A exploitable C program

for starts i would go with what Elias had to say, if you dont understand anything of it, perhaps you should start a little higher and just concentrate on the system. c/asm would be where i focused, and i would get handy with a debugger.

here is a link to a paper that i think helps ease people into buffer overflows better than smashing the stack, as i think smashing the stack kinda assumes a basic knowledge of whats going on to some degree, i dunno their both great papers:

and then these are what ive been working on and i think their the coolest thing since, well i dunno what- but i enjoy them alot:

really beyond how c and how those calls in c break into asm, i highly advice you understand the stack and how instructions that manipulate it work...bla bla bla im not gonna say anything you cant learn from reading
