I've had a lot of trouble in getting through buffer overflow exploits from start to finish. I end up with a sigsegv fault instead the intended result. I just downloaded Damn Vulnerable Linux and all I see from reviews about it is 'effective at teaching sql injection..., something, else, buffer overflows'.
However I can not find any tutorials or examples of buffer overflow for DVL. Does anyone know about any working ones? I have tried:
http://www.damnvulnerablelinux.org/
which literally doesn't have anything on the site.
I have googled a lot and have only found DVL in reviews.
If someone can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated. Especially if someone has executed a buffer overflow example iv DVL.
Cheers

This is a working example of a buffer overflow that is from the book, The Art of exploitation' It works I have tried it. Great book by the way
