The vulnerability of the dlopen() function in the system library glibc, which allows a hacker to execute arbitrary code

The vulnerability of the dlopen function in the glibc system library is related to the use of an insecure path for searching executable programs when processing the LDLIBRARYPATH variable. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code by sending a specially...

glibc: heap/stack gap jumping via unbounded stack allocations

A flaw was found in the way memory was being allocated on the stack for user space binaries. If heap or different memory region and stack memory regions were adjacent to each other, an attacker could use this flaw to jump over the stack guard gap, cause controlled memory corruption on process sta...
