Automatic exploit generation demanded not only by Black-Hat hackers but benign developers too. Generation of workable exploit – is the best way to evaluate severity of found defect and set right priority to fix the bug. Over the past decade a lot of papers were presented to offer methods of automatic (or automated) exploit generation using only raw binary code. However, at the same time software protection mechanisms were significantly developed. They aimed to prevent exploitation or to mitigate its consequences. The talk compares exploitation techniques and protection mechanisms in the modern software, shows how secure software development utilizes advances in compiler technology.
