Abstract:The format string vulnerability is a common software vulnerability. A well-constructed format string can read and modify arbitrary memory addresses, causing serious system problems. Existing automated exploit generation solutions for format string vulnerability are unable to cope with the limitations imposed by the vulnerability defense mechanism Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) and the program itself on vulnerability exploitation. In this paper, to address the above challenges, we propose FormatAEG, … Show more
