Dane Brown drinks Jamaican Rum Punch while walking us through return-oriented programming


What if you could launch an attack without writing a single line of code? This week, we pour up a proper Jamaican rum punch with Dr. B Hacking and unpack Return-Oriented Programming, which is an old-school exploit technique still alive and kicking in the age of ASLR and NX. From stack smashing to chaining gadgets with surgical precision, this episode walks you through the evolution of buffer overflows and how hackers still bypass modern defenses using nothing but the target’s own code.


About The Show:

Hackers On The Rocks mixes refreshing conversation with potent cybersecurity insights. Each episode tackles a specific software vulnerability class and a cocktail. Both go down easy. Cheers!The cybersecurity world is a vibrant mix of technical talent and strategic minds. Here at Hackers on the Rocks, we raise a glass to the unsung heroes: the practitioners. While the broader community encompasses diverse roles including governance, risk, and compliance managers, network analysts, and incident responders, our podcast celebrates the hackers on the front lines. It is researchers who are deciphering code, digging into products, and finding unintended consequences within design implementations. Join us as we raise a glass to their expertise and translate their knowledge into clear, actionable insights for everyone.
