Eliminating Buffer Overflows
Buffer overflow attacks are among the oldest and most common attacks used to gain privileged access to a computer system. In fact, statistics from Carnegie Mellon’s Computer Emergency Response Team reveal that buffer overflow vulnerabilities accounted for about 50% of all reported vulnerabilities in 2000 [2]. It is surprising that after almost 20 years of buffer overflow exploits, they are stil...
متن کاملExploit Programming From Buffer Overflows to “ Weird
Hacker-driven exploitation research has developed into a discipline of its own, concerned with practical exploration of how unexpected computational properties arise in actual multi-layered, multi-component computing systems, and of what these systems could and could not compute as a result . The staple of this research is describing unexpected (and unexpectedly powerful) computational models i...
متن کاملOn the Evolution of Buffer Overflows
The vast majority of software vulnerabilities still originates from buffer overflows. Many different variations of buffer overflows evolved over time, rendering them an ubiquitous threat in every piece of code. In this paper, we present various facets of buffer overflows and pinpoint their practical relevance. Despite numerous protection mechanisms it remains difficult to protect against buffer...
متن کاملIntroduction to the Cell Broadband Engine
The Cell Broadband Engine Architecture and the first implementation of this architecture, the Cell Broadband Engine, appear to be a good fit for a variety of signal processing applications. This paper presents an overview of the architecture and the processor, and focuses on those characteristics that benefit signal processing applications. We discuss major application areas in which Cell has a...
متن کاملMapReduce for the Cell Broadband Engine Architecture
In this paper, we propose the evaluation of MapReduce on the Cell processor by way of the Marchine Cubes application. We argue that the Cell architecture and the MapReduce parallel programming model complement each other well, and that the Marching Cubes application is a good application through which to evaluate this potential synergy. For the interested reader, a preliminary design and plan o...
