Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

An analysis is made of the classical buffer overflow prevention methods for Intel 80X86 architecture and C/C++.A new stack buffer overflow prevention method based on dual-stack is proposed due to the shortcomings of classical methods.Besides,an object file reconstructing tool for ELF format files is implemented with the dual-stack structure.Experiment results show that the proposed method and the tool are efficient for buffer overflow attack prevention with low overhead.
