I doubt it: aslr is not as easy to break on modern Linux as everyone in this thread wants to pretend it is. And anybody who actually cares so much about security that a compromised web frontend is the end of the world should be doing other things which would additionally mitigate this... I know they claimed they can bypass it: if that's true, they should publish it. The forking nature of nginx is uniquely bizarre and vulnerable, and I strongly suspect that's the only way they're pulling it off. I feel like that's the interesting thing here, not the buffer overrun. | ||
