Buffer overflow

Recommended Posts

Buffer overflows can be triggered by inputs that are designed to execute code. They are the basis of many software's that can be exploited. Bounds checking can prevent buffer overflows.

Programming languages commonly associated with buffer overflows include C and C++, which provide no built-in protection against accessing or overwriting data in any part of memory and do not automatically check that data written to an array is within the boundaries of that array.

 

I think this might be causing it.
