Buffer Overflow Set-UID Attack

In this lab, we are exploring buffer-overflow vulnerability in the system. A buffer-overflow attack is a malicious code set in a program to go above the normal boundary of a buffer and manipulate the normal flow of this program. In recent/modern operating systems, there are many countermeasures established to avoid/reduce buffer-overflow attacks. In this lab, we will turn off these measures in order to be successful with our attack.
