Uli takes on buffer overflow

Get to know a little about stack exploits in the first of five films featuring Uli Drepper. Find out how stack buffer overflows work, the vulnerabilities abused by such attacks, and a security implementation that can stop the attack before it even begins.

We’re also offering up an extended version of the talk–available as a podcast–for those of you on the go.

And join us next time, where we’ll hear from Uli about more exotic attacks and other types of security measures.
