Can you point out where in the kernel tree this
randomization has been done? I havent seen anything on
LKML explaining this.

Linux kernel recently incorporated a protection which
randomizes the stack making exploitation of
stack based overflows more difficult. I present here
an attack which works on exploiting static
addresses in Linux. You should be familiar with
standard stack smashing before attempting this 
paper.

Thank you.
