In theory it sounds nice ... but has anyone actually documented DOING it... perhaps a working example...I know from first hand its not as easy as it sounds.

How can one exploit a Tru64 buffer overflow without executing code on the stack ? I would appreciate any techniques / White papers or coding examples that I can use to further my understanding of these issues in a 64-bit environment.


Same way you exploit it on any other system that has a non-exec stack - using
a return-to-libc or other similar workaround....
