Hello all,

I'm starting to research how to exploit buffer overflows but there is a concept that i'm not understanding so well. I 
know that this may not be the proper ML to ask, but i guess i can find the answer here.

I've seen a lot of examples refering the return address being calculated using the (esp - offset) value. My question 
is: what is, exactly, the offset?

Thanks in advance,
haZ
