For others, particularly those with little knowledge or experience of (and often equally little in...

KASLR is Dead: Long Live KASLR

Modern operating system kernels employ address space layout randomization (ASLR) to prevent control-flow hijacking attacks and code-injection attacks. While kernel security relies fundamentally on preventing access to address information, recent attacks have shown that the hardware directly leaks this information. Strictly splitting kernel space and user space has recently been proposed as a th...

WHAT IS LIFE - Sub-cellular Physics of Live Matter

Preface " There are at present fundamental problems in theoretical physics awaiting solution, e.g. the relativistic formulation of quantum mechanics and the nature of atomic nuclei (to be followed by more difficult ones such as the problem of life). " (P.A.M. Dirac 1931) 70 years ago Erwin Schrödinger presented a series of lectures at the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies with the title Wha...
