Building ROP Chains and Injecting Shellcode in MIPS32 Stack Overflows
WebSecurity
The article discusses the construction of ROP chains and the injection of shellcode in the context of stack overflows on the MIPS32 architecture. Unlike the x86 architecture, MIPS32 has significant differences in function calling methods. The author mentions recently working on problems from the DVRF series, which motivated them to deepen their knowledge of ROP chain construction. The article focuses on the technical specifics of the MIPS32 architecture and the techniques required to exploit stack overflow vulnerabilities in this context.
