And if load address randomization is enabled in the operating system, each new run of the program will end up with a different fingerprint and thus not work. The situation is slightly better for the libcrypto.so DLL, because if load address randomization is turned off and it is ensured that libcrypto.so will load at a particular address every time, there will only be one fingerprint for each compiled libcrypto.so DLL. > On Fri, Jun 24, 2016 at 4:14 PM, Steve Marquess <marquess at openssl.com > <mailto:marquess at openssl.com>> wrote: > > On 06/24/2016 03:10 AM, Sahil Gandhi wrote: > > Hi Jakob, > > > > Could you please elaborate it?
