Format string vulnerability in the use of small a-vulnerability warning-the black bar safety net

1, Preface Format string vulnerability has now been more and more rare, but in CTF the game will still often encountered. By learning this type of exploit, you can promote us by analogy with other vulnerability types, so as to further deepen the understanding of software vulnerability the basic...

Amazon Linux AMI : curl (ALAS-2017-806)

libcurl's implementation of the printf functions triggers a buffer overflow when doing a large floating point output. If there are any application that accepts a format string from the outside without necessary input filtering, it could allow remote attacks. This flaw does not exist in the comman...
