Understanding ASLR and Buffer Overflow Exploits on Linux

This article explains the concept of Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR), illustrates how buffer overflow attacks work on Linux, shows step‑by‑step exploitation with disabled ASLR, analyzes memory layout calculations, and discusses the impact of PIE and modern mitigation techniques.

Position Independent Code (PIC), Position Independent Executable (PIE), and Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) in Linux

The article explains how Position Independent Code (PIC) enables code to run at any address using GOT and PLT tricks, how Position Independent Executables (PIE) extend this to whole binaries, and how Linux’s Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) leverages PIE to fully randomize process memory, making exploitation significantly harder.
