Exploiting OpenBSD - Ben Hawkes
Free, functional and sort of secure. This presentation explores
the cutting edge of exploit development on an OpenBSD system.
Topics discussed will include the stack-smashing protector (SSP/ProPolice),
Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR), the custom OpenBSD malloc
implementation, and various other points of interest. Both previously
known and unknown attacks will be covered. Some prior exploit development
knowledge is assumed.
