• 1 Attack technique

I have a question about exploiting vulnerabilities in computer codes. Are we only using the "buffer overflow attack" or some other techniques?

Elena

The programming assignment used a buffer overflow. But for the other sections of the report, I think we are considering buffer overflow attacks over a network, combined with other techniques like worms, botnets, etc. If you want, I can write about some of these more general attacks. --Yi-Kai
