Try something like the below in Google :

"buffer overflow" + linux + introduction

or

"buffer overflow" + tutorial

I remember seeing a very good article explaining what is happening when =
overflows take place, how
to check for exploits in bad code and how to program so that overflows a=
re avoided.
