Disarming Offense to Facilitate Defense - Bruschi, Rosti (2000)   (Correct)

.... details about the art of writing buffer overflow exploits, we refer the interested reader to the wealth of publications on the issue (e.g. 1, 16] Various pro active and reactive solutions have been proposed that are characterized by different targets, i.e. source or executable code (e.g. [20, 10, 19, 4]) In order to devise a filtering scheme that will protect the system from root compromise via buffer overrun, we characterize the necessary conditions for a buffer overrun to succeed. The critical components of such an attack are the setuid to root program and the possibility of passing ....

StackGuard: Automatic Adaptive Detection and Prevention of.. - Cowan (1998)   (129 citations)  (Correct)

....the right code fragment can be found within the body of the program itself. Thus additional protection for critical data structures such as function pointers and function return addresses, as described in Section 5.4. 6. 2 FreeBSD Stack Integrity Check Alexander Snarskii developed a FreeBSD patch [22] that does similar integrity checks to those used by the Canary variant of StackGuard. However, these integrity checks were non portable, hard coded in assembler, and embedded in libc. This method protects against stack smashing attacks inside libc, but is not as general as StackGuard. 6.3 Array ....
