Rajat, There are some approaches to do that, most of them try to prevent in some way the use of stack overflows to get code execution. pax and exec-shield are two examples... Also, I saw some projects related to create forge the syscall interruption to analyze the program flow. If you want to know something more specific, will be easier to give a consistent reply for your question. cya, Rodrigo (BSDaemon). -- http://www.kernelhacking.com/rodrigo Kernel Hacking: If i really know, i can hack GPG KeyID: 1FCEDEA1 --------- Mensagem Original -------- De: Rajat Jain <Rajat.Jain@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Para: kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxx <kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxx>, linux-newbie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <linux-newbie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Assunto: Detect Stack Overflows?
