15-213, Fall 20xxThe Attack Lab: Understanding Buffer Overflow BugsAssigned: Tue, Sept. 29 Due: Thu, Oct. 8, 11:59PM EDTLast Possible Time to Turn in: Sun, Oct. 11, 11:59PM EDT1 IntroductionThis assignment involves generating a total of five attacks on two programs having different security vul-nerabilities. Outcomes you will gain from this lab include: You will learn different ways that attackers can exploit security vulnerabilities when programs do notsafeguard themselves well enough against Buffer overflows. Through this, you will get a better Understanding of how to write programs that are more secure, aswell as some of the features provided by compilers and operating systems to make programs lessvulnerable. You will gain a deeper Understanding of the stack and parameter-passing mechanisms of x86-64machine code.
